I thought this is a long gone topic but im really scratching my head. Chinese New Year was and has always been a celebration of various pagan Chinese gods and ancestors, and I personally don't really enjoy it, but Lee and the saints in LC today who are Chinese consistently emphasise the need to use this festival to make a "feast" or a "love feast" to attract people to Christ. Now there's nothing ever been Bible-relating at all in Chinese New Year, can I even stretch a bit like you do, that the Chinese New Year calendar attempts to "change God's law and time" like the little horn in Daniel does, because it keeps making the first day of each year different according to Chinese tradition? So I can say CNY is a type of antichrist and that Lee and the saints have mixed themselves with such evil, using their "man-made concepts" to promote Christ and LC?

I was not going to say anything and I personally am not particularly into Christmas and I don't enjoy Chinese New Year at all. But I love Valentine's Day and birthdays my Lc friends celebrate them all the time. My lc friend even wrote once on Valentine's Day saying Jesus is her true valentine. now Valentine's Day was a pagan festival used for worshipping goddess of love, now are you going to carry a double standard to judge this sister? those who celebrate Christmas and find no condemnation from their conscience are allowed to do so, there is no such law against or for it. I could have cared less but any consistent Pharisee-type of attitude really turns me off and makes me want to say something. God have mercy on me and if I offended anyone may His grace renew me.

May all brothers and sisters go in peace whether we celebrate the birth of Christ or not. Jesus is King and he Head, period. We are not condemned in Him, period.
