FACTS AND BACKGROUNDS OF ‪#VALENTINE‬'S DAY CELEBRATIONS

FACTS AND BACKGROUNDS OF ‪#VALENTINE‬'S DAY CELEBRATIONS:

WHAT A SINCERE BIBLE CHRISTIAN SHOULD KNOW ABOUT VALENTINE'S DAY AND ITS CELEBRATION.

1. February 14 was an old celebration to JunoFebruata, the Roman goddess of sexual passion.

2. It included pairing adolescents by chance drawing for casual sex and going relationships.

3. Cupid was Roman god of love.

4. Lupercerlia, the celebration of Lupercus, the Roman god of fertility included casual sex, and marriage based on mere chance.


5. In 494AD, Pope Gelasius, perhaps wanting to obscure the pagan celebrations of JunoFebruata, Lupercus and Cupid, declared February 14 as Saint Valentine's Day.

6. St. Valentine was executed by Emperor Claudius II on 14th February 270AD for secretly wedding couples against his evil decree. Emperor Claudius II had banned all weddings in order to build his army for senseless wars.


7. The resurgence of the ancient immoral features of those Roman goddess in today celebration of St. Val's Day shows clearly that those Roman goddesses have reclaimed the day, and a sincere Christian should steer clear of this celebration, as nothing is saintly about it.

8. Our God commanded us to come out of Rome's religion and reject her sins (Rev. 18:4).

9. Our God commanded us to come out of false religion and not even touch it (2Cor 6:14-17).

10. Christians have no agreement with winged red devils that shoot arrows of lust into hearts.

11. It honours infatuation and lust: both are contrary to Christian love (2Cor 13:4-7, Eph 5:25).

12. Only lust occurs by fiery darts in the heart; love is the conscious choice to serve one another.

13. Christians marry only in the Lord, and they are very sober about love (1Cor 7:39; 11:11).

14. We must make a statement against the fornication and lasciviousness of this generation.

15. Love is of God while lust is of man; therefore we will only celebrate love scripturally.

16. Valentine's Day is highly esteemed by men; so it must be an abomination to God (Luke 16:15).

17. We are totally against spiritual adultery by worldly associations (James 4:4).

18. God condemns customs of other gods as abomination to Him. (Ezekiel 8:1- 18).

God created love, sex and marriage; Valentine's Day honours lust, casual sex and chance. Jesus Christ is the Lord of heaven and earth; Romans pagan deities of Juno, Lupercus and Cupid are abominations to Him. Valentine's Day, which is a religious day is one of the devil's and world's devices to seduce you into spiritual adultery, where you will ignorantly make love with pagan idolatry and devil in the name of Christianity. God is jealous; He would not accept any pagan religious traditions, even if done to Him (Deut. 12:1-4, 29-31). He expects you to come out and be separate (2Cor. 6: 14-18).

You need ‪‎Jesus‬ as a sure source of strength to live a life of true love. Accept Him into your life as Lord and Saviour today. Close your eyes now and silently commit your life to Jesus.

Did You Know?

Creativity comes from God the Creator and He has given us pro-creative abilities in different areas to make the world a better place and provide works of charity. In TLF we are big on arts, crafts and creativity. We celebrate creativity. Many people have been able to support charitable causes from creative art exhibitions and sales. Many others have also used their creative works to raise awareness on various laudable causes for social development. Take for instance in our theme for this month, we have selected some creative art works that will help pass our message to us in an artistic way. Also in our Centre, we host children who often come just to draw and make things from recycled materials. We strongly invite you to like our facebook page - TLF Creativity. We also share and retweet such creativity on our X handle that we also invite you to like and share. Our various artworks in TLF add to the posters we paste around and the comics we also produce and share out. Join our facebook ...

Theme

For us in TLF we are going to be focusing on Enterprise aka Labour aka Work for the entire month of June. We are urged to work. If you do not work how would you meet your daily needs?

I know many of us love to do what we love, we do not like to go to work if we do not like the job. But what if what you are doing as work and being paid for is actually what you love? What you love may not turn out to be a source of income, but we must still do what we can to earn. Are you enterprising? Please keep it up. Are you in paid labour in the private or public sector? Please do your work as unto the Lord God. Are you working all by yourself as a self employed worker? Please continue to grow and progress for greatness. Always know that in - Happy moments, praise God.  Difficult moments, seek God.  Quiet moments, worship God.  Painful moments, trust ...
