Reasons Christians Should
not Celebrate Valentine’s
Day
joshuainfantado / January 27, 2016
Valentine’s Day is among the most popular Christian

holidays in the world today. However, what’s popular
does not automatically mean it’s acceptable to God. You
might be shocked to know that the Bible actually forbids the
celebration of Valentine’s Day. Here’s why!
Valentine’s Day is among the most popular holidays in the world. Thanks to commercialism, this day is so popular
that even non-Christians celebrate it.
It is estimated that Americans spend about $20 billion on this single holiday alone, making it the second most
expensive holiday next to Christmas.
However, the majority is not always right.
One must ask whether Christians should celebrate this day. Most importantly, what does God think about
Valentine’s Day?
Before I proceed, let me tell you this SHOCKING TRUTH: Valentine’s Day should NOT be celebrated by
Christians.
In this post, let me share the reasons why this is so. Let me make it as simple as possible for everyone to understand.
Here are the 10 reasons Christians should not celebrate Valentine’s Day.
Reason no. 1: Valentine’s Day has pagan roots

A quick look at any encyclopedia or history book will reveal that Valentine’s Day is an ancient Roman festival.
It is originally known as Lupercalia which is celebrated every February 15. Lupercalia is celebrated to honor not
God, but pagan gods namely Lupercus (god of fertility), Juno (goddess of marriage and women) and Pan (god of
nature).
There is really nothing to argue about here.
Plain and simple: Valentine’s Day is rooted in paganism.

God calls paganism as ABOMINABLE and He strongly commands His people to stay away from it.
God is very clear on this:
“When the Lord your God cuts off from before you the nations which you go to dispossess, and you displace them
and dwell in their land, take heed to yourself that you are not ensnared to follow them, after they are destroyed from
before you, and that you do not inquire after their gods, saying, ‘How did these nations serve their gods? I also
will do likewise.’
You shall NOT worship the Lord your God in that way; for every abomination to the Lord which He hates they
have done to their gods; for they burn even their sons and daughters in the fire to their gods. Whatever I command
you, be careful to observe it; you shall NOT add to it nor take away from it” (Deuteronomy 12:32).
Reason no. 2: Bible says to flee sexual immorality

“Flee sexual immorality. Every sin that a man does is outside the body, but he who commits sexual immorality sins
against his own body.
Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and
you are not your own?
For you were bought at a price; therefore glorify God in your body and in your spirit, which are God’s” (I
Corinthians 6:18-20).
Sexual immorality brings a lot of heartbreaks, diseases, and negative emotional and social problems. God loves us
and does not want us to suffer unnecessary pain.
Though sexual immorality brings pleasure, it will not last long. When you consider its many dire consequences, you
will soon realize that it’s not worth the risk.
So what does sexual immorality has to do with Valentine’s Day? Lupercalia is celebrated with pagan sex rituals. It is
about eroticism, lust, and fertility.
God knows what’s best for us and He knows sexual immorality, like any other sins, leads to many untold
suffering.
As early as the fourth B.C., young men seek their sexual partner during the Lupercalia festival. By a “love” lottery,
young men would be able to win the companionship and sexual service of a woman until the next year’s drawing.
With these dark secrets of the origin of Valentine’s Day, you sure don’t want to be associated with it. God’s word is
very clear with this and He wants us to flee sexual immorality.
Reason no. 3: Christians are called to love, not to lust

There is no doubt that the origin of Valentine’s Day involves strong infatuation and lust rather than genuine love.
There are a lot of unmarried couples who use Valentine’s Day as an excuse to participate in pre-marital sex. Often,
this sexual act leads to unwanted and unplanned pregnancy. Sadly, some resorts to abortion just to “correct” their
mistakes.
Reason no. 4: You can Celebrate Love without Valentine’s Day

Why do so many Christians limit their love on a specific day, in this case, Valentine’s Day? Wouldn’t it be great to
demonstrate your love every single day?
Married couples or those who are in a relationship can show their love and concern every day and not wait for
Valentine’s Day to arrive.
After all, even if you celebrate your love on Valentine’s Day, it really feels awkward since this day celebrates lust
and not true love.
Reason no. 5: NO one exactly knows who St. Valentine is

Photo Credit: http://www.publicdomainpictures.net/
Do a quick search on the Internet and see what you can find about St. Valentine. It is very weird because his story is
based on LEGEND and not facts.
It is also unbiblical to revere a man. Some people think that we should pray to the saints as they can help bring our
petitions to God. This is a satanic deception that we must all stop.
Dead people are dead. They don’t anymore have the ability to help the living.
First and foremost, dead people are dead. The Bible makes it clear that there is no knowledge in the grave
(Ecclesiastes 9:10) and no one has ever ascended into heaven except Christ (John 3:13).
Therefore, it is useless to have so-called “saints” canonized by the Roman Catholic Church. Besides, if you are
really a Christian, why celebrate Valentine’s Day which commemorates a saint of the Catholics?

Reason no. 6: God’s definition of love differs from what Valentine’s Day
promotes
The Biblical definition of love is this:
“FOR THIS IS THE LOVE OF GOD, THAT WE KEEP HIS COMMANDMENTS. And His commandments are
not burdensome” (I John 5:3).
Did you get that? Read it again.
God’s definition of love is keeping His commandments. The commandments of God are there because He LOVES
US. The commandments of God gives us the guidelines of how to have a fulfilling, blessed, and joyful love.
Valentine’s Day is just the opposite.
As Christians, it is our duty to please God rather than men.

At this point, we need to stop and think. There is no doubt that Valentine’s Day is a pagan holiday turned
“Christian”. It is a holiday consecrated and ordained by man, NOT God. In fact, God considers pagan holidays as
abominable, detestable, futile, vain, and useless.
Who should we follow? God or man?
Whom should we please? God or man?

Who should we believe? God or man?
Jesus Christ gave us the answer:
Jesus answered them, “How right Isaiah was when he prophesied about you! You are hypocrites, just as he wrote: ‘
These people, says God, honor me with their words, but their heart is really far away from me. It is no use for them
to worship me, because they teach human rules as though they were my laws!’
“You put aside God’s command and obey human teachings” (Mark 9:6-8, GNB).
Reason no. 7: God is not impressed when He is worshiped with pagan

holidays
Why do we keep on insisting our own way? If you read the Bible, you will see the exact and proper manner how
God wants to be worshiped.
We need to stop and ask, “How does God want me to worship Him?” Rather than asking, “How do I want God to be
worshiped?” After all, it is about God and not us.
Why would you use something that God hates to worship Him?
Jesus said: God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in TRUTH (John 4:24).
Ask yourself, “Is there any truth in Valentine’s Day?” “Does it help us to worship God in spirit?” The answers to
these questions are a glaring “NO”.
Valentine’s Day is nothing but a recycled pagan holiday repackaged with a “Christian” name. If you are going to
give a gift to God, do you think He will be happy to receive something that He calls useless and abominable?
We need to be honest to answer these questions.
Reason no. 8: Valentine’s Day leads to negative emotions

Women, in general, are very emotional. If they don’t receive a gift on Valentine’s Day, they feel unloved. If ever
they receive something on this day, they will feel proud.
Proud because they receive something better than what other women received.

Unloved because they receive something worse than what other women received.
Valentine’s Day is geared towards the way of getting rather than the way of giving.
Whether you like it or not, some women actually expect something from their partner. It is like having this feeling of
entitlement. “It’s Valentine’s Day and I deserve a gift.”
On the other hand, men would feel pressured to buy something that will please their partner. Sometimes these men
are forced to give rather than give willingly.
Either way, Valentine’s Day is geared towards the way of getting rather than the way of giving.
Reason no. 9: God commands us not to conform to the world
Like I said before, Valentine’s Day is a very popular holiday in the world.
Why not?
It caters to the lust of the very human nature that we have. However, God expects us Christians to overcome our
human nature and be more like God and less like us.
The Apostle Paul is very clear on this:
“Do NOT try to work together as equals with unbelievers, for it cannot be done. How can right and wrong be
partners? How can light and darkness live together?
How can Christ and the Devil agree? What does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?
How can God’s temple come to terms with pagan idols? For we are the temple of the living God! As God himself
has said, “I will make my home with my people and live among them; I will be their God, and they shall be my
people.”
And so the Lord says, “You must leave them and separate yourselves from them. Have nothing to do with what is
unclean, and I will accept you.
I will be your father, and you shall be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty” (II Corinthians 6:14-18,
GNB).
Reason no. 10: We are commanded to celebrate different Holy Days

Surprising as it may sound, God commanded His people to celebrate His Feast Days.
There are seven annual festivals that Christians should celebrate instead of borrowing holidays from pagans. They
are written in Leviticus 23.
Please don’t assume that it is just for the Israelites because we can read that Jesus Christ, the Apostles, and early
Christians celebrated them even many years after Jesus’ death. This is a big topic so please request your free copy
of God’s Holy Day Plan: The Promise of Hope for All Mankind.
Conclusion
With these 10 reasons, it is very obvious that Christians should not participate in any pagan holidays including
Valentine’s Day.
[Related article: 5 Scary Ways Valentine’s Day is Secretly Destroying Your Relationship]
You may change the name of an ancient pagan holiday into something “Christian”, but we cannot deny that its
substance is still the same.
We can always show true and genuine love in a God-ordained manner. We don’t have to borrow ancient
pagan celebrations to follow God.
If you are really a Christian who would like to live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God (Matthew
4:4), then you better take heed and not celebrate Valentine’s Day.
Valentine’s Day is not a Christian holiday and it will never be.
You are called a Christian because you are a follower of Christ. Christ did not celebrate Valentine’s Day, so should
you.
Will you follow God’s word or follow your own will? Choose rightly.

Hi Joshua,
Valentine is not a recognised as a saint in the Catholic Church. Please check and get your facts right.
Secondly, there is a difference between dead people and saints depicted in Revelation 6, 7 and 8:4 from even your
favourite translation KJV.
May the Lord bless you to know the difference between your human feelings and His Biblical truths.

Hi Pamela,
Valentine is a recognized saint of the Catholic Church. Here’s a quote from the document General Instruction of the
Roman Missal:
The Roman Catholic Church continues to recognize him [Valentine] as a saint, listing him as such in the February
14 entry in the Roman Martyrology, and authorizing liturgical veneration of him on February 14 in any place where
that day is not devoted to some other obligatory celebration in accordance with the rule that on such a day the Mass
may be that of any saint listed in the Martyrology for that day.
I read the verses you mentioned and I don’t see saints living in heaven right now. Remember, Jesus Christ said that
NO ONE has ascended to heaven except Himself (John 3:13).
I hope you read my blogs with an open mind with bias. 🙂
Same to you, may the Lord bless you as well.

st valentine is considered a saint because he was actually beheaded that day by the pagans.
catholic are christians.
the guys you replied to was correct : “And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints,
ascended up before God out of the angel’s hand,” saint and dead people are not the same
in his vision he saw saints
john 3:13 there was none before him not after

Jesus will not die a second time. If you’re talking of remembrance, then that’s all it is, a remembrance, not coming
to die another death.
So Christ died only once to take away the sins of many people. But when he comes again, it will not be to take away
sin. He will come to save everyone who is waiting for him. – Hebrews 9:28 CEV

You could say this about every “hoilday”, but most don’t know the “meaning” behind any one, so they celebrate in

mothers/father’s day to name a few… if you are honoring, or remembering( not worshipping) how is that wrong????

Hi Lynn,
The Bible is clear that using paganism to worship the true God is abominable. This is not the case with the holidays
you mentioned. Veteran’s Day, memorial day, and parents’ day do not come from pagan worship nor do we use
these holidays specifically to worship the Eternal.

We’re celebrating Valentine because this man left his family, his children, enjoyment and the good social amenities
in his country to Africa. He was attacked by animals, Malaria and others deadly disease just to spreads the gospel of
Jesus Christ. He die in a round hut with Grass roof. He was found dead kneeling down praying. This is how formal
learning started reaching to Africa. He did not teaches the gospel alone but he taught them how to read and write.

Thanks for the insight on valentine celeberation. But note, no man is a monopoly of knowledge. All your pionts as I
understood clearly warned to stay away from peganism, there’s no prove that christians serve other gods on that
they. People go about appreciating themselves in love. Actually there may be people who uses that day as an excuse
to commit imorality, so is it on every other day. Whether a day fo celeberation or not people commit evil. That’s
why the Bible says because iniquity shall abound the love of many shall wax cold. Valentine or no valentine evil
prevail in the land today because we are at the end time. From my perspective, I believe that the celeberation day
was initiated to stop the worship of lupercalia, Juno and pan. So that people will understand that without this evil
gods, love can still be celeberated among people. About the day, 14th February, love can be celeberated every day
but in Roman14:5 one can choose any day suitable, after all everyone is a free moral agent. We can only warn and
encourage people to be careful and stay away from evil on that day. 1cor.13:1-10;14:33; 2cor.10:17; 1john3:1-24.

Hi Emeka,
Thanks for your comment. Valentine’s is a recycled pagan festival. God has instituted biblical festivals. It is a great
wonder for me why people would insist on using pagan festivals when God has provided his ordained festivals (Lev
23). So, instead of using paganism, we need to go back to the Bible and do what God really commands us to do.

question. If we celebrate V-day with family by going to church, stay at home, eat and give gifts or something special
to parents and kids do household chores for their parents? and thankful to God that family is in good health. We also
do this during Christmas. So we stop?
I mean would God be mad if we celebrate these this things originally from Pagan?
Would God not accept me in his kingdom if I celebrate these days (Christmas or V-day) by working hard so I can
take my parents to movies, or save the day and not go to work so I can do all household chore so mom can relax?
A lot of people celebrate these holidays / pagan “thing” in a different way.
If V-day is all about Love and Family, God is all about faith, love and family, is that not the same thing?

Hi PurpleFire,
I appreciate you taking the time to comment.
Here’s what sets apart the true worshipers of God from the false ones, John 4:23-24:
But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the
Father is seeking such to worship Him. God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
Those who worship God must worship Him in truth and spirit.
Would you honestly say that the origin of Valentine’s Day, with its dark history, honor the God of truth?
I would say no.
There are a lot of ways to show love to your parents and loved ones. You don’t need Valentine’s Day to do that.
Not only that, but we all need to make sure that we are worshiping God according to His terms and not on our terms.
Yes, God is all about faith, love, and family, but you don’t get to justify the end by your means.

Joshua

10 Simple but Powerful

Valentine’s Day is among the most popular Christian

Reason no. 1: Valentine’s Day has pagan roots

Plain and simple: Valentine’s Day is rooted in paganism.

God is very clear on this:

Reason no. 2: Bible says to flee sexual immorality

Reason no. 3: Christians are called to love, not to lust

Reason no. 4: You can Celebrate Love without Valentine’s Day

Reason no. 5: NO one exactly knows who St. Valentine is

Also read: The Shocking Reason We Should Stop Praying to Saints

As Christians, it is our duty to please God rather than men.

Who should we follow? God or man?

Whom should we please? God or man?

Jesus Christ gave us the answer:

Reason no. 7: God is not impressed when He is worshiped with pagan

We need to be honest to answer these questions.

Reason no. 8: Valentine’s Day leads to negative emotions

Proud because they receive something better than what other women received.

The Apostle Paul is very clear on this:

Reason no. 10: We are commanded to celebrate different Holy Days
