THE HALO : CHRISTIAN OR PAGAN - The pre-Christian Romans named their sun-god Helios and eventually began using the halo in their art, including of their "divine" emperors. When sun-worshipping pagan Romans professed conversion to Christianity, they introduced the halo into Christian imagery.

The Halo : Christian Or Pagan

What Is A Halo?

By Wayne Blank


The photograph below is that of an actual sunset. It's very easy and plain to see that it's the sun, isn't it.
The word "halo" originated from a Greek word that simply meant the sun, or the sun's disk.
By literal definition, the photograph above, of the sun, is a halo.
The pre-Christian Romans named their sun-god Helios and eventually began using the halo in their art, including of their "divine" emperors.
When the Romans created their false version of Christianity, they carried over their use of the halo into supposedly Christian images whereby people eventually lost sight of what they were actually looking at.
Below you can see a Roman "Christian" image in which the people all have a "halo," the sun, behind their heads.
If you didn't already, do you now understand what a pagan halo really is?
Fact Finder: When sun-worshipping pagan Romans professed conversion to Christianity, they introduced the halo into Christian imagery. What other sun-worship doctrine did they infiltrate into professed Christianity?

About Wayne Blank
I was born and raised as a Roman Catholic, but I have had nothing what-so-ever to do with that organization since the early 1970s, the time that I began basing my Christian beliefs solely upon the Word of God, the Holy Bible. I have never been a member of any other church organization.
My church membership today is that of the Biblical Church of God. According to the Holy Scriptures, "church" actually means the people, the "called out ones," who truly live by the Word of God (see Can You See The Church?). I now strongly disagree with the Church of Rome and any other Christian-professing church organization, Catholic or Protestant, that contradicts the pure Word of God as written in the Holy Scriptures.
