Semiramis is presented as a key figure in the Babylonian origins of Christmas. She was the mother and wife of Nimrod, the great-grandson of Noah who founded the first world empire at Babel, and she is also known as Ishtar and Isis. After Nimrod's death, she promoted the belief that he was a god. She claimed to have seen an evergreen tree spring from a dead stump, symbolizing his new life, and said he would visit the tree on his birthday, at the winter solstice, and leave gifts under it. She later bore a son, Horus or Gilgamesh, whom she said was Nimrod reincarnated through a visit from his spirit. This deified father, mother, and son formed a deceptive, perverted trinity, and Semiramis and Horus were worshipped as Madonna and child. Over the generations they were worshipped under other names, such as Fortuna and Jupiter in Rome, Aphrodite and Adonis in Greece, and Ashtoreth/Astarte and Molech/Baal in Canaan. The source traces Christmas customs such as the evergreen tree, gift-giving, and the mother-and-child motif back to this pagan system. It holds that this syncretistic blending of paganism with Christian themes is abhorrent to God (Deuteronomy 12:29-32) and that it distracts from the true Father-Son relationship.

Semiramis is the Greek name for the wife of Nimrod, who appears in Genesis 10. The Middle Eastern goddess known by names such as Ishtar, Ashura, Astarte, Isis, Aphrodite, and Venus is thought to have been modeled after her. These goddesses were deities of fertility and all that it entails, including love, sex, and power, and they were even regarded as goddesses of war because love and sex so often cause conflict. The name Easter itself may trace back to this line of goddesses, as well as to the Germanic dawn goddess Eoster or Ostara. Easter customs such as eggs, bunnies, chocolate, bonnets, and ham descend from these pagan fertility religions and were later absorbed into the Catholic Church's observance of the Resurrection. Scripture contains none of these practices, and they have nothing to do with the true resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Semiramis was the queen and wife of Nimrod, the mighty hunter and king of Genesis 10, and some believe she was also his mother, though the proof for that is unclear. She was reputedly very beautiful. After Nimrod was killed and his body cut into pieces, his followers wailed in sorrow. Having come to love her position of power, she quickly moved to secure it. She bore a son and convinced the people he was Nimrod reincarnated, then bore other children by no husband and claimed they were supernaturally conceived. In this way Satan turned God's patriarchal design into the worship of mother and son. Ancient coins and carvings picture the mother and child, and this worship spread worldwide under changing names. Nimrod became Tammuz, Adonis, Bacchus, Osiris, Baal, and others, while Semiramis became Astarte, Isis, Sybil, Venus, and others. The women weeping for Tammuz at the temple gate in Ezekiel 8 echo the mourning for Nimrod, and the mother-and-child worship led into sun worship. The same pagan pattern, with its sexual license, lies beneath Christmas and other festivals of the so-called Christian world, and God's anger against those joined to Baal of Peor shows how He regards it.

Semiramis is identified with Hera, the wife of Zeus, whose temple stands beside the great temple of Zeus at Olympia, where the ancient Olympic games were held. Alexander Hislop's The Two Babylons identifies Hera and Zeus as the Greek equivalents of Semiramis and Nimrod. Together with Hermes, identified as Cush, they form an unholy trinity worshipped under different names in various ancient cultures as mother and child or husband. This worship is bound up with sun worship and ultimately with the worship of the fallen Helel, Satan the Devil (Isaiah 14:12). Because the games began as worshippers' re-enactments of the contests of these gods, the Olympics have pagan roots. God condemns such origins, as with the worship of the Queen of Heaven, Tammuz, and other false gods (Jeremiah 10; 44; Ezekiel 8). The modern games drop the names of Zeus, Hera, and Hermes, yet they carry on the same practices. God's people are not to follow the abominations of the nations, but to cleanse themselves from all filthiness of flesh and spirit (Deuteronomy 18:9, 13; II Corinthians 7:1).

Semiramis is the mother goddess of Babylonian paganism, identified with the biblical Ashtoreth and equated with the Roman Venus and the Greek Aphrodite (Ceres). Venus is the mother of Cupid, who is also known as Nin or Ninus, the Son, and Ninus is Nimrod. Like these other goddesses, Semiramis is usually depicted with multiple or grossly oversized breasts, symbolizing fertility. A single thread of fertility, or plainly sex, runs through the male line of Lupercus, Faunus, Pan, Baal, Nimrod and Cupid and the female line of Venus, Aphrodite, Ceres, Semiramis and Ashtoreth. This connects Valentine's Day to the Roman Lupercalia, a fertility festival that used religion as a cover for lowering morals and inhibitions. Valentine's Day is therefore a product of Babylon, the whore and mother of harlots in Revelation 17, and God's people are commanded to come out of her (Revelation 18:4).

Long before the coming of Christ, pagans used the cross as a religious symbol, and its connection to ancient Babylonian mystery religions is significant. According to historian Alexander Hislop, Tammuz, intimately associated with these religions, was linked to the worship of Nimrod, Semiramis, and her illegitimate son, Horus. The original form of the Babylonian letter T, representing Tammuz, was identical to the crosses used today in this world's Christianity, highlighting a deep-rooted pagan influence in the symbol's history.

Nimrod, the ancient king and arch-apostate, had an incestuous mother-wife, Semiramis, who became deified alongside him. Through history, she was known by many names such as Ishtar in Babylon, Isis in Egypt, Athena in Greece, Minerva in Egypt and Greece, Astarte in Syria, Ashtoreth in Israel, and Diana in Ephesus, all representing the pagan Queen of Heaven. Semiramis was also called Cybele in Rome, revered as a goddess of fortifications, universally depicted with a crown of towers. Ancient accounts credit her with building the first towers and surrounding Babylon with a wall of brick, establishing her as the prototype of the goddess who first made towers in cities. The Ephesian Diana, identified with Semiramis, was represented with the attributes of the Mother of the Gods, wearing a turretted crown reminiscent of the Tower of Babel. As the tower-bearing goddess Rhea or Cybele, a Babylonian deity, Semiramis's identity as the goddess of fortifications is clear. Diana of the Ephesians, known as a licentious queen of vice, was the original tower woman, Semiramis, whose worship caused great persecution for early believers. The Tower of Babel remains a symbol of the global government Nimrod and Semiramis sought to establish, a goal echoed in modern structures like the Louise Weiss Building of the European Parliament, designed after the Tower of Babel to reflect their ancient philosophy of glorifying mankind over God.

The Statue of Liberty, a prominent symbol in New York harbor, embodies Semiramis, the legendary Assyrian queen who reputedly founded Babylon in the early 9th Century BC and was notorious for her sexual license. This statue, officially titled Liberty Enlightening the World, represents Semiramis with the 7 rays emanating from her head, symbolizing her connection to ancient Babylonian worship. God abhors the evil system of this world, which traces back to the practices initiated in ancient Babylon by Nimrod and Semiramis. As a representation of the Queen-Mother of Babylon, also known by various names across cultures, she stands as a deceptive figure of liberty that promises enslavement to the world's system, contrary to divine sovereignty.

Nimrod, grandson of Ham, son of Noah, was the founder of the Babylonish system that has gripped the world ever since. He built the tower of Babel and organized the world's first kingdom. It is said that Nimrod married his own mother, Semiramis. After Nimrod's untimely death, Semiramis propagated the doctrine of his survival as a spirit being. She claimed a full-grown evergreen tree sprang overnight from a dead tree stump, symbolizing the springing forth unto new life of the dead Nimrod. On each anniversary of his birth, she claimed Nimrod would visit the evergreen tree and leave gifts upon it. December 25th was the birthday of Nimrod, and this is the real origin of the Christmas tree. Through her scheming, Semiramis became the Babylonian Queen of Heaven, and Nimrod, under various names, became the divine son of heaven. In this idolatrous worship, Nimrod became the false Messiah, son of Baal the Sun-god. In this false Babylonish system, the Mother and Child, Semiramis and Nimrod reborn, became chief objects of worship. This worship of Mother and Child spread over the world under varying names in different countries and languages.

Historical evidence reveals that the cross, a symbol deeply embedded in mainstream Christianity, has origins in pagan antiquity, notably linked to the goddess mother Semiramis from the 23rd century BC. Semiramis, associated with the false savior Tammuz, her illegitimate son, is credited by some traditions with the invention of the cross as a form of punishment. This connection underscores the pagan roots of the cross, which was used as an instrument of death long before the Christian era in various ancient cultures, including Egypt, Assyria, and Rome.

The ancient Assyrian and Babylonian mystery religion deifies and worships Semiramis, the lascivious mother and lover of Nimrod. She is known under various names across cultures: the Babylonian goddess Ishtar, the Egyptian Queen of Heaven Isis, the Greek Athena, the Ephesian Diana, the Roman Minerva, and the American Lady Liberty. This goddess, represented by the Statue of Liberty, embodies a pervasive influence of immorality and opposition to the One True Sovereign God, promoting a false sense of liberty through pagan worship.

The veneration of Mary, like many pagan practices, has its origin in the heathen religious system created by Nimrod and Semiramis, specifically from the worship of the Mother and Child. Through the millennia, the symbol of the Mother and Child has been endlessly repeated, with evidence of such worship found in all nations of ancient times. Though her characteristics varied from culture to culture, the common element is that the Mother was the Queen of Heaven, and she bore fruit even though a virgin. In China, Semiramis became known as the Holy Mother. The Germans named her Hertha, while the Scandinavians called her Disa. Among the Druids, she was worshipped as the Mother of God under the name Vigo-Paritura. To the Greeks, she was Aphrodite, and to the Romans, she was Venus, with her son known as Jupiter. The Canaanites, and at times even the Israelites, worshipped Ashtoreth, also known as the queen of heaven. In Ephesus, the Great Mother was known as Diana. This false worship, having spread from Babylon to various nations, finally became established at Rome and throughout the Roman Empire.

Easter, as a name, bears its Chaldean origin clearly, being nothing else than Astarte, one of the titles of Beltis, the queen of heaven. This goddess, known as Astarte among the Phoenicians and as Ishtar on Assyrian monuments, is directly linked to the English term Easter. In ancient Chaldean idolatrous sun-worship, practiced by the Phoenicians, Astarte was the consort of Baal, the sun god, and is identified with Ishtar, reinforcing the pagan roots of the term. Furthermore, the mythical Ishtar, wife of Baal, is connected to the ancient Semiramis, who presented herself as the wife of the sun god and the idolatrous queen of heaven. This substitution of a pagan festival for a divinely ordained observance reveals a deep deception, where Semiramis, as the queen of heaven, is commemorated instead of the true Savior, under the guise of honoring Jesus Christ.

Semiramis appears in the material as the first deified queen of the city and tower whose top was intended to reach to heaven, serving as the prototype of the goddess who first made towers in cities. She is identified with Asherah, also known as Ashteroth, Asherim, Athirat, Astarte, Easter, Artemis, Diana, Ishtar, and Isis. The Ephesian Diana, represented with the attributes of the Mother of the gods and wearing a turreted crown reminiscent of the tower of Babel, is expressly identified with Semiramis. In Babylonian religious literature Tammuz appears as the youthful spouse or lover of Ishtar Semiramis, who is also described as his natural mother and the great mother goddess embodying the reproductive energies of nature. These identifications link Semiramis to the pagan deities whose worship Israel and Judah adopted through high places, sacred pillars, wooden images, and associated rites. Such practices are shown to have supplanted faithful observance of God's commands, including the original Passover instructions, and to have contributed to the broader pattern of idolatry that provoked divine judgment and prepared the way for later alterations in festival observance.

Semiramis, Nimrod's mother and wife, propagated the belief after his death around 2167 BC that he had become a spirit being. She asserted that a full-grown evergreen tree sprang from the roots of a dead tree stump, symbolizing the emergence of new life in the form of Nimrod. Semiramis and Nimrod came to be worshipped as the first mother and child deities. Over successive generations their names as mother and child appeared in varied forms across countries and languages, such as Isis and Osiris in Egypt, Fortuna and Jupiter in Rome, and Venus and Pan in Greece. This mother-child pair formed a central element in the pagan celebrations of Saturnalia and Brumalia that later supplied the framework for assigning December 25 as the birth of Christ, thereby illustrating the process of religious syncretism in which pagan elements were blended into emerging Christian observance. The account of Semiramis thus demonstrates how compromise with surrounding customs gradually introduced and sustained idolatrous traditions within what became mainstream Christianity.
