The Lord has been very gracious to our family, liberally showing us Truth around every corner.
Luke 11:9-10 “And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.”
We began researching EVERYTHING we have ever known, wanting to understand their origins. We have found that most things our society esteems are completely rooted in paganism (nope, make that all things), and yet, the masses go on ahead, blissfully and wantonly unaware.
One such example is that of the word ‘Cereal’. Just like children asking ‘why’ about everything, we wanted to know ‘why’ we call our breakfast grain by that name.
Here is what we found out:
“Demeter was the goddess of agriculture, especially wheat, and fertility. Demeter means barley-mother. Her Roman name was Ceres.” -Indepthinfo.com
“Ceres was the Roman Goddess of agriculture and grain. The word cereal is derived from her name.” -Goddess-guide.com
Ceres=Cereal.
So, in our house, we call our morning bowl of millet, ‘Grain’. We will not call upon the name of any other so-called god.
Micah 4:5 “For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever.”
One last point of interest- Ceres is, in mythological accounts, the mother of Persephone. You’ll find her perched upon our Capitol Building in DC. It is said that whatever sits under Persephone’s feet is under her control. I’m just sayin…
