Easter Weekend

 This Easter Weekend is being marked with restrictions, loss of civil liberties, and being told how to live all in the name of a pandemic.  Fear is being placed in the hearts and minds of individuals by the governments of Canada and the provinces, all supported by main stream media who unfortunately don't investigate news, but rather toe the line of government propaganda serving kool-aid to the public.

Despite all of this.  Despite all the restrictions, loss of freedoms, and being controlled by an ever more public embracing the authoritarian dictatorial rule of both federal and provincial governments, the act of freedom and the braking off the shackles authoritarianism will be observed this weekend.

Regardless of anyone's religion, Easter weekend or Passover are symbolic of freedom gained by those who believe and by those who do not believe.  It is important that these two signs of freedom continue to be flourished regardless of what so called democratic governments order.

Passover represents physical freedom gained from slavery to being free men and women and children.  Easter weekend represents the spiritual freedom expressed from being a slave to religion to being free from religion.  Very few may agree with me, but without either the Passover or Easter weekend freedom could not have been understood.

Passover and Easter exemplifies the freedoms that no one can take away.  With the government restrictions being placed on the populations, people have come to realize that freedom comes with a price.  That civil liberties come at a cost.  Both Passover and Easter are action filled demonstrations of the freedoms being demonstrated in their rightful renditions to be played out.

Passover empowered the Children of Israel to throw off the shackles of Egyptian tyranny.  Easter empowers the believer to throw off the shackles of religions that oppress the individual into compliance through fear.   One may be able to enslave the physical being, but they can not enslave the soul of the individual.  A religion may enslave the individual but it can not enslave the spirit of the individual.  There is freedom through God that can not be taken away, for God has ordained freedom from the very beginning.  God gave His creation the freedom to act and to decide, and that same freedom from the very beginning of His creation still abounds in His present creations for we are all free individuals, all we have to do is grasp the freedom that God offers.
