The bible says to do all things for the glory of God so a believer should ask themselves if their behavior for that night will meet that instruction or not.if christians boycotted everything that had some unchristian aspect to it, then the christian could not do anything and would have to stay at home and starve to death.

We have now opened that up to the community which means that a parent or guardian must be there to supervise them unlike when it was just a church only event. Of course I think it is better to have it open to the community even if it is a bit more inconvenient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Judas Machabeus Posted November 2, 2015 Share Posted November 2, 2015 (edited) Halloween, or Hallowe'en(/ˌhæləˈwiːn, -oʊˈiːn, ˌhɑːl-/; a contraction of All Hallows’ Evening),[5] also known as Allhalloween,[6] All Hallows' Eve,[7]or All Saints' Eve,[8] is a celebration observed in a number of countries on 31 October, the eve of the Western Christian feast of All Hallows' Day. It begins the three-day observance of Allhallowtide,[9] the time in the liturgical year dedicated to remembering the dead, including saints (hallows), martyrs, and all the faithful departed.[10][11]https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halloween i have no no problem with Halloween, my one daughter dressed up as the 11th Doctor from dr who and my other daughter dressed up as captain jack sparrow there was no devil worship or demonic worship. Just trick or treating Edited November 2, 2015 by Judas Machabeus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe this is a pagan worship day, by the roman catholic church ,this is not a Christian day at all, and there is a scripture, about that Christmas tree, there is a verse in the bible ,that talks about it, jeremiah chapter # 10 v 3 -5 about the tree and what god thinks of it, Now if you take the n out of the santa ,and put it at the end of the word , it spells satan, huh.. ? and he comes through the fire place that's odd? food for thought ?

They adorn it with silver and gold;they fasten it with hammer and nailsso it will not totter. Like a scarecrow in a cucumber field,their idols cannot speak;they must be carriedbecause they cannot walk. Jeremiah 10:3:5 (New International Version) To Steal The Joy Of The Children? The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.

But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ. 1 Corinthians 8:11-12 Most Of Us Celebrate The Birth, Death And Resurrection Of Christ Everyday What shall I render unto the LORD for all his benefits toward me? I will take the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD. Psalms 116:12-13 However Many Faithful Still Light Up The Nights For Christmas And Even For Hanukkah Bless the LORD, O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Psalms 103:1 With A Festival Of Lights To The Miracle Working God Of Abraham, Isaac And Jacob Thy way, O God, is in the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God? Thou art the God that doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people. Thou hast with thine arm redeemed thy people, the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah. Psalms 77:13-15 But We Are Watching The Lights Of Joy Blinking Off All Over This World For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee. Isaiah 60:2 So Beloved. Those Who Are Offended By Christmas Joy Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Matthew 14-16 Can Sit In The Darkness Of A Dying World For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord. And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger. Luke 2:11-12 While The Faithful Will Sing And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men. Luke 2 2:13-14 In Their Hearts Speaking to yourselves in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord; Ephesians 5:19 Merry Christmas Beloved~!Love, Your Brother Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
