How did the church develop so many doctrines that are contrary to what is clearly written in the Holy Scriptures? Should we accept these things that are in obvious violation with the clear truth which is written in the Word? God says NO, Jesus says NO, and therefore, Pastor Fisher says NO as well. Listen to an informal bible study conducted by Pastor Fisher in a local church as he digs in to some of these distortions and illustrates from the Word and the Vine’s Expository Dictionary that the true feast that was celebrated by the Apostolic Church was known as “Passover” which is in accordance with the teaching of the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 5:12 and is also the correct translation of Acts 12:4 penned by Dr. Luke.
