🎙️ Episode Title: “Why I Don’t Celebrate Birthdays Anymore” | The Keep It Real NetworkWhat’s going on, everybody? I’m your host, Herb Hill, and welcome back to The Keep It Real Network, where we speak truth—with no fluff, no compromise, and no sugar coating.Today’s episode is real personal. I’m breaking down why I no longer celebrate birthdays—not mine, not my wife’s, not my children’s. And no, it ain’t about being difficult. It’s about truth.📖 The Bible only mentions two birthdays:Pharaoh’s — where a man was hanged (Genesis 40:20–22)Herod’s — where John the Baptist was beheaded after a sensual dance (Matthew 14:6–11)That’s not celebration—that’s death and paganism. Ain’t no prophets, apostles, or even Jesus Himself celebrating birthdays. That should tell you something.💡 Birthdays today = self-worship. Ego. Vainglory. Rituals rooted in Greek, Roman, and occult tradition.“Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory…” — Philippians 2:3 (KJV)“Learn not the way of the heathen…” — Jeremiah 10:2 (KJV)“Be not conformed to this world…” — Romans 12:2 (KJV)“Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.” — John 3:7 (KJV)You weren’t born spiritually alive—you were born dead in sin.“Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.” — Psalm 51:5 (KJV)So why are we exalting the day of the flesh, when Jesus said the focus should be on dying to self and living for Him?“If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow me.” — Luke 9:23 (KJV)When my family threw a surprise birthday party for my mom and asked me to participate, I didn’t go. Not out of spite—but out of conviction. This episode is my response to that. To all who ask why I don’t celebrate birthdays anymore… this is why.I used to do it. I used to allow it. But once I saw how it was feeding the flesh and not glorifying Jesus, I had to shut it down—for myself and for my kids. As the head of my household, I had to make a stand.🎂 Birthday cakes, candles, zodiac signs, wishes, attention—it’s all ritual, not righteousness.So what should you celebrate? Being born again.What should you give? Thanks to Jesus Christ for every breath you take.Not your birthdate—but His death and resurrection.“This do in remembrance of me.” — Luke 22:19 (KJV)If you’re ready to stop exalting the flesh and start lifting up the name above all names, hit play. Let the truth convict, correct, and set you free.👇 Drop a comment if this message hit your spirit.👍 Like, share, and subscribe for more bold, unfiltered truth.#KeepItReal #NoMoreBirthdays #PaganTraditionsExposed #SelfWorship #JesusOverTradition #BiblicalTruth #ComeOutFromAmongThem #SpiritualPodcast #HerbHill #RebornNotBirthdayBorn
