In former times you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of light ... And do not participate in the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather rebuke them. Ephesians 5: 8-11
Abstain from all kinds of evil. 1 Thessalonians 5:22
Halloween has led to being celebrated worldwide, but many of those who celebrate are ignorant of their religious origins or pagan heritage.
For many years, the Halloween party or better known as (Halloween), with its procession of pumpkins and their children disguised as skeletons and ghosts, found a popular success.
Many only see in this party a harmless distraction, a childish fun.
The testimony of people who practiced Satanism and then came to Christianity, relate that Halloween is one of the most relevant parties for the realization of demonic cults because these people tell that when these dates arrive it is a new beginning of the satanic year and it is where it is celebrated. literally the "birthday of the devil". They also relate that in these festivities various sacrifices of young people and especially many children are made since these are God's favorite.
Today there is a big question. Can a Christian celebrate Halloween? It is a question that reappears every year in the middle of this date in many churches.
Well we see Biblically the answer is "no." You can not participate or celebrate Halloween, or any other party to the dead
Deuteronomy 18: 10-12
10 Let no man be found among you who causes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, nor any who practices divination, nor doomsayer, nor sorcerer, nor sorcerer,
11 nor charming, nor fortune teller, nor magician, nor who consult the dead.
12 For anyone who does these things is an abomination to the LORD, and by these abominations Jehovah your God kills these nations from before you.
We must know that Christianity has as a fundamental basis the triumph of life over death, be light instead of darkness, in the Bible we find no passage where we talk about death, the devil or darkness in a positive way what if we can see is how Jesus defeated satan to sin.
It is therefore dear brother that we should not be participants of these pagan customs flee from this type of party, educate our children on them so that their hearts are not anesthetized, we must teach that although it seems a defenseless party in it reigns satan and darkness .
And teach them that in the Bible at no time satan is presented as an offensive character rather we see him as a danger which uses various methods such as magic, witchcraft, spiritualism, and this type of party to captivate and drag the hearts of Many.
Do not fall into this trap, this is why on this date you cry out to God for those who do not yet know this great truth.
