the Passover controversy
According to these Bible-based teachings, the Early Church kept the Passover on the 14th day of the first month in the sacred calendar, celebrated the Feast of Unleavened Bread by fasting on the 15th day of the same month, and observed Resurrection Day to commemorate the resurrection of Christ.
Change of the Truth
The Council of Nicaea decided in favour of celebrating the resurrection on the first Sunday that comes 15 days after the vernal equinox every year, under the excuse that it was difficult to calculate the date of the feast according to the movements of the moon, and determined that Holy Communion should be celebrated at Easter.
The Western Church had not kept the Passover till then, but it continued to celebrate the resurrection on the Sunday after the Passover. So, even though the Eastern and Western Churches held the Eucharist on different dates from each other, they all used the Passover in determining the date of Easter. However, as the Council of Nicaea established the date of Easter as the first Sunday after the full moon following the vernal equinox, the meaning of the Passover completely disappeared. Church history simply explains that the Council of Nicaea was convened to standardize the date of Easter. However, behind it was hidden a conspiracy to completely abolish the Passover.
Satan’s hindrance did not stop here. The Church of Rome, which had been associated with polytheistic traditions and ideas for a long time, introduced Easter that was originally a festival in honor of Eastre the goddess of spring—which was celebrated in Northern Europe at the vernal equinox, and grafted it into Christianity.
The custom of eating eggs on Easter originated from the ancient people who believed in pagan gods.

The three-stage Passover controversy was finally resolved through the Council of Nicaea.
No one could keep the real Passover after the Passover was abolished by Satan in AD.325. There were three controversies in AD. 155, 197 and 325 to remove the Passover. The early church members kept the Passover on the 14th day of the first month in the sacred calendar even under the persecution. Because the Passover is the last will of Jesus Christ which is related with our salvation. We also must keep the Passover on the 14th day of the first month in the sacred calendar to receive the eternal life.
I am forever grateful to Christ Ahn Sahng-hong for reclaiming the Passover, which has disappeared for 1600 years.
Passover is a precious truth established by Jesus' sacrifice to give forgiveness of sins and eternal life to mankind. Because no one can be saved without the Passover, God came to this earth in the flesh a second time. Christ Ahnsahnghong, who restored the Passover of the New Covenant, the eternal covenant, according to the prophecy of King David, is the Second Coming Jesus and our God the Father.
Among the countless churches in the world, wmscog is the only church that observes Passover.
The Bible says that God enacts Passover and order to keep it to the end of the world.
However, it was disapeared by the Satan. Today, there is no church to observe Passover,
but only the church to keep Christmas, a man's commandment.
If you believe in God and want to go to heaven, you must keep the commandment of God, the Passover.
When we study the Bible and church history, we can realize that World Mission Society Church of God is the only church that observes the New Covenant Passover according to the biblical method.
The saints of the early church kept the Passover of the New Covenant by following the teachings of Jesus. Only God can restore the New Covenant for our salvation. Christ Ahnsahnghong restored the New Covenant and opened the way of the kingdom of heaven as God the Father. We must believe in Christ Ahnsahnghong and God the Mother, our savior of this age and keep the New Covenant to receive salvation from God.
