This is the very same today. Most of what calls itself "christianity" - including "protestants" - is actually worship of the false deity known as ba-al specifically the ba-al named tammuz. tammuz worship became incorporated into worship of Yahweh when Ancient Israel was in the babylonian captivity. This was mixed with some of the ba-al mithra traditions that they brought back from Egypt when Moses led them out of Egypt. I believe it is possible that Yahweh's plan for them to wander for forty years until only the younger generation was left was so that most of the Egyptian paganism would be forgotten and replaced with true worship of Him. ishtar / osiris (Nimrod's mother and then wife) was tammuz mother that she claimed was conceived after her husband/son Nimrod (she married her son when her husband Cush was killed) had been killed - a false "immaculate conception". She (semaramis / osiris / ishtar) became known as the "mother of god and queen of heaven" and is still worshiped to this day. (the same Nimrod in the bible)
After Nimrod was killed, his body was cut into pieces and sent to various parts of his kingdom. Semiramis (ishtar) had his body parts gathered and all except for one part was found - his male organ. This is why the obelisk was created and worshiped - it is a symbol of Nimrod's male organ and is an abomination to Yahweh.
When Ancient Israel returned from the babylonain captivity, they brought back with them worship of tammuz which they incorporated into worship of Yahweh just like they tried to incorporate the worship of the golden calf with worship of Yahweh when they left Egypt:
Exodus 32
2 And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.
3 And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.
4 And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.
5 And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.
Tammuz was allegedly killed by a wild boar and some of his blood was claimed to have fallen on a stump of an evergreen tree causing the stump to grow into a tree overnight making the tree sacred by tammuz' blood by those who worshiped him. ishtar proclaimed forty days to fast and mourn for tammuz followed by a celebration on the first sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox. During the forty days, no meat was to be eaten and sacred cakes with the sign of tammuz (a cross) were to be eaten. The sunday following the forty days of mourning were to be celebrated with rabbits and eggs and by eating a pig because tammuz was allegedly killed by a pig. Crossing oneself after prayer is also a sign of tammuz and is worship of this false "god".
Ancient Israel worshiped tammuz and Yahweh sent His prophets to warn them against it. They even including this pagan worship they brought back with them from Egypt and Babylon into worship of Yahweh in the Holy Temple. When Ezekiel confronted the High Priest, he was told "Go away, Ezekiel. We will worship Yahweh OUR way" which is exactly what Ancient Israel said when Aaron made the golden calf. Ancient Israel said they would worship Yahweh THEIR way instead of how Yahweh instructed when confronted by Yahweh's prophets just like most so-called "christians" claim they worship God THEIR way instead of how Yahweh instructed. Yahweh does NOT accept false worship.
Ezekiel 8
Lent:
13 He said also unto me, Turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations that they do.
14 Then he brought me to the door of the gate of the LORD'S house which was toward the north; and, behold, there sat women weeping for Tammuz.
15 Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen this, O son of man? turn thee yet again, and thou shalt see greater abominations than these.
ishtar sunrise service:
16 And he brought me into the inner court of the LORD'S house, and, behold, at the door of the temple of the LORD, between the porch and the altar, were about five and twenty men, with their backs toward the temple of the LORD, and their faces toward the east; and they worshipped the sun toward the east.
Jeremiah 7
16 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me: for I will not hear thee.
17 Seest thou not what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem?
18 The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.
19 Do they provoke me to anger? saith the LORD: do they not provoke themselves to the confusion of their own faces?
20 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, mine anger and my fury shall be poured out upon this place, upon man, and upon beast, and upon the trees of the field, and upon the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be quenched.
Ancient Israel also worshiped the sun "god" Nimrod and his alleged son tammuz on his birthday december 25th where tammuz allegedly is the reincarnated Nimrod. This is another abomination to Yahweh.
Jeremiah 10
2 Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.
3 For the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe.
4 They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not.

The Two Babylons, by Alexander HyslopInterestingly rabbinic Judaism also has remnants of the traditions brought from babylon they have incorporated into the Passover celebration. The roasted egg is directly from babylon and has NOTHING to do with a Passover celebration as instructed by Yahweh.
“In paganism this is what is known as the “winter solstice,” which falls on December 21st ----when the earth is the furthest away from the sun. On December 24th, the earth begins to rotate back around the sun and comes closer to the sun. But the pagans did not know this in earlier times before science and telescopes. These pagans in Babylon thought that the sun died on December 21st and then it began to resurrect on the eve of December 24th and then it made it’s full rebirth on December 25th. They believed this to be the birthday of Nimrod or Baal the Sungod.
Using astrology as her guide, Semiramis became pregnant on around March 25th (9 months from December 25th), and then she concocted a legend for the Babylonian people telling them that on December 21st, Nimrod dies each year, but then on December 25th Nimrod is “born-again” as the “sun-god” or “Ba’al.” Hence, on December 25th the “sun-god” is celebrated around the world with many different names.
Semiramis told the Babylonians that she had become the goddess of the moon and the sky and that Nimrod was being “reincarnated” in her womb as “Ba’al” the sun-god on December 25th. She told the Babylonians that Nimrod impregnated her with the “rays of the sun” supernaturally and Nimrod “re-incarnated” himself as her new son Tammuz on December 25th.
Her new son was named Tammuz according to Ezekiel 8:14 or generically he was called “Ba’al” (which means Lord or husband). Each year on Tammuz’s birthday on December 25th, the pagans were ordered by Semiramis to go into the groves (forests) and placed a gift on a tree to honor Nimrod who was “cut down” like a tree. They were also ordered to cut down an everygreen tree, take it into their homes and decorate it with silver and gold balls to symbolize Nimrod’s testicles.
Trees and branches became symbols of Nimrod because Nimrod was “cut down” by Shem, the son of Noah who placed a bounty hunt on his life. The book of Jasher tells us that it was Esau (the son of Jacob) who actually killed Nimrod. Hence, a tree stump became a place of honoring him, as the scriptures speak of the pagans going into the “groves” or the forest and cutting down a tree, decorating it, and propping it up so that it will not totter.” —
Most who claim to be Christians are actually worshiping ba-al only using the names of Yahweh and Yeshua (including their english translated names) to do so. They are as deceived as Ancient Israel was deceived into believing they are following Yahweh when they were actually following ba-al. The wicked jezebel confused the two and incorporated her paganism into worship of Yahweh and many who thought they were folowing Yahweh were following tammuz instead. The bible warns that there would be deceivers using Yeshua's name (most commonly His english name Jesus although ihop and other apostate movements are using His Hebrew name Yeshua) to deceive people into believing they are following Him when they are actually following "another Jesus" - they are following tammuz and are calling tammuz 'Jesus' to seduce and deceive people into following the imposter to hell.
2 Corinthians 11:4 For if he that cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might well bear with him
The jezebel spirit is alive and well and seducing people into following this false "Jesus" to hell. This false demonic spirit in combination with the kundalini demon who mimics the Holy Spirit is a strong force into seducing people into apostasy and into following the apostate church into hell. In context, it is about spiritual fornication with idols / false worship.
Revelation 2
20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
Most "christians" have twisted the words of the apostle Paul and believe what their false contortions say instead of what Messiah clearly says. They have twisted the apostle Paul into their "god" instead of following what Yeshua - our MESSIAH - clearly says.
Most do so because it is what they were taught by both parotts and deceivers although they have absolutely no excuse since the
bible is available for them to study and prove what they were taught as the Bereans did. NOTHING the apostle Paul taught went against Torah (or any of the Old Testament) otherwise the Bereans would have not accepted him or his teachings.
Acts 17
10 And the brethren immediately sent away Paul and Silas by night unto Berea: who coming thither went into the synagogue of the Jews.
11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
12 Therefore many of them believed; also of honourable women which were Greeks, and of men, not a few.
Peter said Paul's teachings were hard to understand and that people would twist Paul's words to fall from their stedfastness. Since Acts is clear Paul never taught against Torah and Peter is clear that Paul was hard to understand and that people twist what he said to follow the wicked and fall from their faith and adherence one needs to re-examine what Paul actually said if they believe he taught that it was okay to disobey Torah.
2 Peter 3
15 And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you;
16 As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction.
17 Ye therefore, beloved, seeing ye know these things before, beware lest ye also, being led away with the error of the wicked, fall from your own stedfastness.
Either you twist the words and follow that which leads to worship of a false "Jesus" which is actually tammuz and the rebellion of Nimrod or you follow what Yeshua, the Messiah you claim to love and follow, says to do. Those who twist the words of the apostle Paul and say Torah is not for today are the modern prophets of ba-al and are leading you to follow another "Jesus" which is exactly what they did to Ancient Israel. This false Jesus is the worship of ba-al tammuz the very same Ancient Israel worshiped and Yahweh punished them for worshiping.
Yeshua is the Living Torah and, having existed from eternity past, He is the author of the entire bible. His words are not just those in red in the New Testament - they are all the words of the Old Testament as well. When He says to obey His words, that means Torah too not just what He said in the New Testament. Torah is The Law and sin is violation of Torah. Those who claim that Christians do not need to obey The Law (or "The Law is for the Jews", etc.) are saying that Christians can sin freely which is not at all what the bible says.
1 John 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
Matthew 7
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. G458
2 Thessalonians 2:7 For the mystery of iniquity G458 doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way.
Strong's number G458 iniquity (transliterated as anomia) :
anomia
1) the condition of without law
a) because ignorant of it
b) because of violating it
2) contempt and violation of law, iniquity, wickedness
John14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
John14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
John15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
1 John 2
3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
1 John 5
2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
Revelation 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
