I believe we Christian believers should not participate in Halloween!

[prayerwarrior777]

Faith is the currency of heaven, fear is the currency of hell. 

This season I believe we should not entertain Halloween which is a pagan holiday rooted in fear, schemes and demon worship. 

Many don't know the origins of this pagan holiday and defend it need to do some research and ask themselves am I pleasing God or the devil participating in this...

As Christian believers we should only embrace God's way of doing things and not the world. 

Faith comes by hearing the word of God. The bible say this!

Fear comes by listening to the lies of the devil. 

God has not given us the spirit of fear but of POWER, LOVE and A SOUND MIND. 

Again Faith comes by hearing the word of GOD... If you need your faith built up read out loud God's holy scripture or listen to it on a particular topic.

Hello prayerwarrior777,

It's nice to meet you! I think this should be in another forum instead of the welcome section. But in short: I personally do not celebrate Halloween due to its pagan origins. The bible says to abstain from all appearance of evil (1 Thess. 5:22). When I was a child, Halloween led to my obsession with the occult; such as astral projection, conjuring up demons that literally came through inter-dimensional portals in my bedroom, etc. But long story short . . . my life spiraled downhill and to the broad path to destruction. The LORD rescued me from my sins and sorcery, and gave me a new heart; a heart that had a new desire to serve Him, and to love others as He had loved others. The tricky part about our archnemesis (Satan) is that he is very subtle and crafty. He will slowly poison children by baiting them with things that are appealing to their sights or senses; and then he will have them hook, line, and sinker. As a result . . . they will grow up to be witches and warlocks, or anyone who will then have the ability to do his bidding -- whether knowingly or unknowingly. I have also learned that children are easily susceptible to lies, and that once they are indoctrinated with lies AS children; it is VERY difficult to pull them out of it. But thanks be to God that Christ died for the ungodly such as you and I; so now we have a second chance on life. A life no longer serving the desires of our flesh, but to do the Will of God.

In Christ, *Pumpkin*

Hi everyone! I don't celebrate Halloween ,so as to not give the enemy any place- but we make sure we're careful how we express this, especially to unbelievers. ?
