The Truth of Love: Easter, Resurrection Day, Passover

Ark Ministries Hope of the World Pick up a KJV bible, and you will find the word Easter but then look in a concordance and you read Passover. Most believers say Easter, not understanding Easter celebrates the God‐dess of fertility Ishtar, and the rite of spring. Rabbits don't lay eggs and Jesus/Yeshua never partici‐pated in an Easter Egg Hunt. Others state it doesn't mat‐ter as long as one believes. What one believes develops one's faith. I believe Yeshua/Jesus is the truth and proved it.
