Light vs Night!
We Christians are like the frog in lukewarm water, not noticing that the temperature is rising.
Why is there little Christian public outcry against Halloween?
Even Christians mimic ghouls and ape horror!
Halloween is characterised by darkness, fear, death and complete public affirmation. All these belong to the prince of darkness. (Remember - Jesus is the light of the world.)
Halloween is making light of the dark. It masks false worship as true fun.
While Halloween is hugely accepted Christmas is now rampantly diluted worldwide. Satan still attempts to kill Christ's birth celebrations (nothing new there), meanwhile multiplying further celebration to himself - Halloween.
Do not be deceived, for it is in the end times people will believe things taught by demons.
Discern the spirits and refuse to approve of this fellowship with darkness.
Christians do not have to accept the momentum of the world.
What fellowship does light have with dark, or a disciple with the agents of evil?
..what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what what fellowship can light have with darkness? What harmony is there between Christ and Belial? (2 Corinthians 6:14b-15a)
N.B. I am very fascinated to observe that merely seven weeks after the celebration of night, the celebration of light also arrives on the western calendar.
Even when satan screams at the world, and it willingly bows - the Light still returns.
Evil's rule is always brief!
May I suggest that a good measure for Halloween is - will this celebration be repeated in Heaven?
Heaven expels evil, it will not celebrate evil.
