Pagan Symbols For Religious Holidays?

Posted in: Ask a Bible Teacher

Do you think God sees it as a sin that we Christians (really saved) use/display what used to be pagan symbols in our homes at Christmas and Easter such as the Christmas tree, yule logs, eggs, bunnies, etc?

Q. I was reading your commentary on the letters in Revelation to the 7 churches which made
me think of a question. Do you think God sees it as a sin that we Christians (really saved) use/display what used to be pagan symbols in our homes at Christmas and Easter such as the Christmas tree, yule logs, eggs, bunnies, etc?

A. I don’t think He likes it very much because it degrades His greatest acts of Love toward us and takes the focus off their real meaning, but it doesn’t constitute a sin unless we worship them instead of Him.
