I love this passage
Book 4 Salvation-Chapter 3 Chadash
This doorway to death lies at the heart of what comes next, and as such, the passage provides a marvelous exposé on the true meaning of the Third Commandment: "Indeed, when (kiy - surely because when in time) you come into (bow' - enter, are led into, return to, are included and associate in) the land associated with ('ahser) Yahuweh your Elohiym, given (nathan - bestowed and entrusted) to you, you shall not accept, teach, or imitate (lamad - be trained in, instruct, become accustomed to, disciple others in), or perform ('asah - fashion, effect, attend to, commit to, observe, celebrate, profit from, bring about, ordain or institute) any of the disgusting religious ways (tow'ebah - abhorrent rites, detestable idolatrous things, repulsive and loathsome rituals, abominable festivals) of these Gentile nations (gowym)." (Deuteronomy 18:9)
And wouldn't you know it, this is the very thing ministers have done. At the time these words were written, every Gentile nation was heathen. Satan was god, worshiped by different names, all representing the sun. His "abominable festivals" included his birth at the winter solstice, now celebrated as Christmas on December 25th. They observed Easter Sunday on the Lord's Day nearest the vernal equinox, as this was the time the sun impregnated Mother Earth, resurrecting life. Their "detestable rituals" included prayers to a Madonna with child, the mother of god, and mass, replete with sun-shaped wafers. In their "abhorrent rites," they wept forty days for the suffering of Tamuz, the son of the sun, instituting Lent. Everything was based upon a politicized clerical class who claimed to speak for God, enriching and empowering themselves through the institution of "detestable idolatrous worship."
You may think that God knows that you mean to honor Him, not Satan, when you call Him Lord. You may think that because you feel good about attending Easter Sunday Sunrise services and exchanging Christmas presents that it must be okay with God. You may think that Yahuweh's seven Miqra' Appointments are a "Jewish" thing, and thus are no longer pertinent. If so, you have placed your opinion above Yahweh's instructions, in effect calling Yahweh an ignorant, irrelevant, and incompetent liar. He just said: "Indeed, when you are led into, and are included in, the land associated with Yahuweh your Elohiym, that was given to you, you shall not accept, teach, imitate, be trained in, instruct, be accustomed to, disciple others in, perform, commit to, observe, celebrate, profit from, bring about, ordain, or institute any of the disgusting religious ways, abhorrent rites, detestable idolatrous things, repulsive and loathsome rituals, or abominable festivals of these Gentile nations."
