Fossilized Customs
Ever wonder where the customs of Santa Claus, Halloween, Easter, the Christmas Tree, the Christmas Wreath, and many, many more come from? If so, then you need to read this book. In Fossilized Customs, you will discover the true origins of many cherished customs. They come from Babylonian sun worship, cleverly 'inculturated' into Christianity over many centuries of darkness. The author, Lew White, addresses the unanswered questions that lurk in the back of many people's minds. It exposes the lies, and reveals the truth. These customs were re-invented so as to have different meanings, yet behind them remain the cunning ruses of an ancient spatial being, who seeks to be worshiped by means of trickery, perpetrated upon everyone alive. There is so much Paganism active in cultures today, there can be no doubt that it was deceitfully placed into our traditions, then through fraud and disguise, obscured with new meanings. Hopefully, this book will lift some of humanity out of the dense fog of history, and awaken people who are dreaming, as they walk into a new dawn of living -- with an eternal perspective. This book is written from the perspective that there is a Creator, as well as a spiritual enemy loose on Earth; and that the Scriptures of the Hebrew prophets are all true. A 'must read' book for those wanting to know the truth.

About the author
Lew White
53 books26 followersMy name is Lew White, and I am the author of Fossilized Customs, Strong Delusion, Truth Or Tradition, Torah Zone, Return Of Yahusha, Who Is Allah, Sunday Origins, Wormwood, Nimrod's Secret Identity, Torah Zone, Reapers, I am Yahuah, The Story Of Electric Ladyland, The LIE (most recent, released spring 2018), and the English translator of: Besorah Of Yahusha Natsarim Version (BYNV).
These books encourage a reader to see that there's a purpose underlying why we should obey the Ten Commandments, rather than see them as being impossible to obey (as most people have been taught for centuries).
Since childhood, I've asked those who taught me to explain why we do the things we do, and what their origins were. The answers they gave me did not satisfy my curiosity. The practicing of men's traditions and religious customs seen everywhere on Earth are derived from Babel, and forbidden by the Word of our Creator, Yahuah. The original meanings of symbols and practices were camouflaged under new meanings, and when exposed by the light of truth, they are all connected to ancient fertility rites of Babel. My books share the same message described at Acts 17:16-32, as Paul discussed the Truth with the idol worshiping philosophers at the Areopagus in Athens. We are created from one blood, we stopped listening to the instructions of our Creator, and all men must repent because a day is coming when all mankind will face judgment.
What we think is expressed in our behavior. If we exhibit a bitterness toward obeying, we've been trained to disobey by the teaching authority we have accepted. If we receive a love for the Truth, then we love to obey the Word of Yahuah.
I have always been driven to learn the motivation and purpose for things, and where our habits came from. When find our purpose, we commit to accomplishing it, and use each day to take steps toward it.
A purpose gives meaning to everything we do, and we can help others discover theirs.

excellent--confirmed what the Father showed me from His Word!An eye opener for those who think they have Truth! Only a few will be able to receive what is exposed! We are not to be ignorant of the enemies lies! Much of what we were taught to be true --is NOT!

The most important book anyone can ever read. It is true. Really! "Our Fathers have inherited only lies" Jeramiah 1:19
You will find more truths hidden inside the more times you read it. I have even ordered extra copies and have sent them to my best of friends, and have changed their lives too.

Hysterical...not supposed to be.
I keep it around (with the binding toward the back of the shelf) as a reminder of just how crazy people can get and still publish a book (but still don't want anyone who might be looking at my books to know that I own it without me there to explain).

This is a completely fanatical book but one worth buying and researching. The information held within will absolutely open your eyes.

Content is Outstanding!...Unfortunately the author's writing-style and the book's layout/structure is cumbersome and sporadic, which makes it difficult to stay focused on the content.

An eye-opening book that exposes the pagan origins of many Christian customs. While I agree with and have heard some of the author's points from other sources, I am frustrated by his writing style. The book seems unorganized since it repeats information in several places and doesn't seem to have a logical path or outline. I agree with the mystery of iniquity being the lie that all laws have been fulfilled and believers don't need to obey law anymore. I also agree that Constantine and other anti-Semitic leaders paganized the Christian religion. His point that it's strange to celebrate a Passover lamb without Passover is well taken, but the author's arguments were often lost in a sea of words. I also found it frustrating that the author's points weren't referenced and that there's no bibliography.
I can't imagine the hours of research that went into this book. It is an important topic. His ideas sometimes surprised me such as saying that the gospel is "Repent for the kingdom of heaven is near," or that we build our house on the rock of Torah (not our Savior as the rock, pg. 83). I also was surprised to read our Savior's name is Yahudah, not the Greek version (Jesus) or Yeshua. After reading most of the book (I confess that I skimmed some pages), I have to concede to his critic having some points (pgs. 171-176). I also disagree with the discussion about our Savior's name. I found references to Yeshu being an acronym for "may his name be obliterated," but also found references that Yeshua means salvation and is an alliteration in Hebrew (savior who saves).
I think there's good information here, but do your own work to verify what is said. I think the author puts forth good hypotheses but doesn't support all of them with solid arguments and information (again, I hate that there are no references).

Lew White equates Catholic, Evangelical and mainstream Christian beliefs as identical, which they are not. He does make good points though about holidays.

Loads of info in this book. It does not read like a book though.. it's more like reading heavily pinned bulletin boards.
