Re: [TruthTalk] Truth on Lent

[Marlin Halverson]

So should we tell people that are celebrating Lent that they are wrong? .....Just curious to what you all think!  Question is -  is it wrong for someone to celebrate something even if the roots are pagan   IF they aren't doing it for pagan reasons?   Laura   GAL 4:8     Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which             by nature are no gods. GAL 4:9     But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God,             how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye             desire again to be in bondage? GAL 4:10    Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years. GAL 4:11    I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.   DEU 18:9    � When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth             thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those             nations. JER 10:1    Hear ye the word which the LORD speaketh unto you, O house of             Israel: JER 10:2    Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not             dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at             them.
