Reply:You could use glitter on the eggs. Or white crayon to make designs on the eggs and water color paint on top and it will look cool. You could make a bunny with felt ears and make wiskers from yarn or something similar.





It's so much fun making cards. Glad you are being creative!

What Happened to the Easter Greeting Cards?
I buy my Easter cards from Dollar General, Family Dollar, Walmart. I send them to neighbors and parents/grandparents. My older children receive an Easter card with money in it.
Reply:They have Easter themed greeting cards at hallmark.com, and also in the grocery and discount stores I have been in.
Reply:Maybe people are too busy to send them or just don't want to send them becasue they think Easter is not as important as other holidays like Christmas.
Reply:I send them every years to the same people to whom I send Christmas cards. This year, however, I had to look several places to find enough packages of cards that referred to the Resurrection. More than 65% of the cards offered were Bunny/Spring themed. Pretty sad, huh?
Reply:They still have them. I usually buy them 8 to a pkg for $4. Everybody loves getting a card. I also put little stickers on them. I send cards for most of the holidays. But no more till Halloween. Isn't that sad?
Reply:This is a relatively new phenomena in UK. Card companies making a bundle.
Reply:Maybe everyone decided to send ecards this year?
Reply:I sent mine out yesterday!


Religious Easter Sayings for Cards?

I'm looking for some religious sayings/Bible versus to write in my Easter cards this year.





I bought them on clearance last year and they have a cute chic on the front with the always accepted 'Happy Easter" inside - but since buying them, I have rededicated my life to the Lord, been baptized and want to write a nice verse in each card that reflects Gods love and his resurection. (sp?)





Anyone have any ideas?

Religious Easter Sayings for Cards?
These I think would be good,





2 Corinthians 5:21


God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God





Mark 16:6


"Don't be alarmed," he said. "You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. But he has risen!








Acts 13:37-39


But God raised Jesus from death, and his body did not decay.





My friends, the message is that Jesus can forgive your sins! The Law of Moses could not set you free from all your sins.





But everyone who has faith in Jesus is set free
Reply:This verse talks about being anew creature in Christ. The chick on your card is new life too!...





2 Corinthians 5:17 (New Living Translation)


"This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!"

Christians should not buy Easter Eggs and Easter cards - do you agree?

I need arguments for and against this point.. Quotations from anywhere would help too!


Thanks...

Christians should not buy Easter Eggs and Easter cards - do you agree?
no
Reply:As for Easter Eggs; that was started by the Pagans just like Halloween. I believe that buying eggs and cards is a personal choice.
Reply:Well if we do a real good job questioning everything about christian holidays etc... maybe we'll lose all markers regarding religion then Christ may just get forgotten... so in all fairness, when the option of easter comes up, and a small child asks how did easter get started, we can can explain the ressurection..... or we can just do away with easter and lose a good witness opportunity. I opt for keeping easter... don't you?
Reply:As far as a pagan connection to Easter, when I see an Easter egg I don't think I am paying homage to Osiris but it really doesn't remind me of Jesus either. Easter baskets full of chocolate bunnies and jellybeans, the big ham dinner, dyed eggs, these aren't what Easter is about but unfortunately it is what Easter has become. It should be the most meaningful and joyous celebration of Christianity and the emphasis should be on Christ, usually it isn't.





The frivilous trappings of Easter are harmless and fortunately as a Christian my salvation isn't affected if I dye eggs or send an Easter bunny themed card. But they are wrong in that they distract from and diminish the real meaning of the day.
Reply:i am a baptist and i send out cards and etc....
Reply:Our church celebrates Resurrection Day. we don't do Easter eggs, but there are some beautiful Easter cards available which proclaim the Resurrection.
Reply:Saying that Christians shouldn't participate in wordly Easter activities, is like saying that Christians shouldn't participate in worldly Christmas traditions.





What's the difference.





I'm a Christian, and I see NO issues with letting my children hunt easter eggs, or believe in the easter bunny. As long as they know the TRUE meaning of Easter, then what's the harm?
Reply:painted Easter eggs are a tradition that originated in ancient Egypt, celebrating the rebirth of Osiris, who died on a Friday and was resurrected on a Sunday. Sound familiar?





Other Easter traditions (candy, rabbits, maypoles, etc) come from pagan Europe.
Reply:why is that? why cant chritains buy easter eggs...............theres no rule against that.....and i know cause ive read the bible!
Reply:christians should not participate in Halloween, no dressing up, no carving pumpkins, no renting scary movies, no candy, nothing. Christians should not have frosty, raindeer, santa or anything in that category up on christmas. Christians should not buy easter eggs or baskets, or bunnies.





The reason being they are all perversions. Halloween is the "devils" holiday, by doing anything to celebrate it is to recognize the devils holiday.





Easter and Christmas are "christian" holidays, and by adding a secular meaning to them is a perversion of the true intent and meaning behind the holiday thus should not be celebrated. Only the true christian meaning should be recognized, and everything else looked upon as sinful. %26lt;in a way, it is worshiping of false idols, they are symbols that pervert the true meaning of the holiday and take away from the christian intent, if you put santa in place of jesus on christmas then you are in essense worshiping the false idol of santa clause, instead of jesus%26gt;








Good thing i dont believe in this jesus crap, i love halloween, and santa clause, and watching my christmas movies...too bad you christians cant do any of that stuff.
Reply:I have to disagree. I am a Christian(Southern Baptist).I send out Easter cards.
Reply:No I don't agree .


Would this also suggest that Christians not attend church on Easter Sunday?
Reply:We are free to buy whatever we like thankyou, still, they are not all they're cracked up to be. I much prefer the hot-cross buns especially on a Good Friday!
Reply:They should, to celebrate the True Meaning of the holiday -- the Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Reply:I know there is a set of easter eggs that you can purchase that tell the easter story. That would be a good egg to buy!
Reply:Easter as we know it today with eggs and rabbits have pagan roots which include fertility rites etc and have nothing to do with the resurrection. True Christians should not participate in this because the Bible clearly warns against false religion and worshipping any other god than God Himself. Jesus Christ confirmed that only his Father was to be worshipped. By celebrating Easter, even if it's not your intent, you are essentially participating in pagan worship. The same goes for Christmas, Thanksgiving, Halloween, Valentines Day etc.


True Christians also know that they are not missing out on anything because their reward lies elsewhere.
Reply:I think that, as a christian, we are allowed to participate in worldly events as well. There is no law against it, is there? i think not. As long as we do see the true meaning of easter, we can still have fun with non-christians! i mean, that's kinda like saying that immigrants can't participate in Independence day celebrations! hello! they can! so why shouldn't christians participate in the traditions of Easter? These traditions are actually a form of celebrating easter, do you disagree. The eggs symbolize life, like a baby chick when it hatches. hello? get the point?
Reply:I agree but some country's of peoples buy easter egg and easter
Reply:Ash Wednesday is the 1st day of Lent, thats why we eat pancakes on the Tuesday before, so we use up all the sugar, eggs etc. Lent is for Fasting for 40 days, Easter Sunday is the end of Lent so we eat eggs ( which are now chocolate for the children ) as a celebration of the risen Christ and also to celebrate the end of the Lenten Fast.
Reply:They shouldn't buy Ferrari's or Rolex watches either but they do. It's just really a celebration and what better way to celebrate than with a little card or an egg, which actually symbolises new birth and a new beginning which is what is supposed to happen at easter. I guess in this commercial day and age it is easier for people to go and buy one than make one. Where the Rabbit bit came into being I don't actually know. Rabbit's and eggs don't exactly go together and there is no connection really.


How do I get rid of easter card pop up on myspace?

Every time I or someone else visits my page in myspace, a pop up appears tellng me that I have an easter card and that I should click to receive it and forward it. It shows an easter card, but then redirects me to various porn sites. I am not able to get rid of the pop up. I cleared my cookie file and temp file, but no use. I changed my password in myspace, but the pop up still appears...any suggestions?

Can I send a greeting card to my Christian friend in the Easter day? Normally, how ppl celebrate this day? What is proper for a gift?

Do people send greeting cards to each other in the Easter day?
Yes of course you can there are some really nice Easter cards out there ! We Christian's enjoy receiving Easter cards from our friends and family. And its the thought that counts.


You might want to check out a christian book store , here is a web site you may want to check out. We like to shop here, you might want to take a look

Reply:i do! its something special for me and for the resivers too :D
Reply:Definitely any card store will have lots for Easter. A present isn't necessary, but you could give something small like candy, flowers, something to eat, etc. Like if you are going to a "party" bring something like a dessert, etc.
Reply:yes... i think i'tll make their day!
Reply:They make cards for anything and everything.
