Easter is not a Protestant Holy Day, it is Papist. Every Lord’s Day is Resurrection Sunday. That is the point of the Lord’s Day; a change of the sabbath of creation to the new sabbath of recreation. There are no additional holy days or supper sabbaths in the new covenant.

One more note: I am not super convinced either way on the issue of whether the critical or majority text is superior. I do hold to the longer ending of Mark and John 7:53-8:11 as being canonical. I am not really concerned if they are original to those Gospels or not.

… He asked what my church background was and I told him I was Presbyterian to which he responded, “ah, then God foreordained for you to be here.” Lol. I’ll probably go back for matins sometime.

99.9% Anglicans looking at this post: Wait. We recite the 10 Commandments every Sunday? News to me.

Just realized Twitter likes to hide posts with links in them. Anyways, today I released a video on why Anglicans recite the 10 Commandments every Sunday! Click the link in my bio to watch!
