Thanks! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I will give my reply and ignore all judgmental comments against me. The simple answer is, is that I feel no conviction against partaking in it. If God dose not want me to do something. He lets me know. God has convicted me about TV shows and music I like. So if God did not want me to take my kid trick or treating, I am sure he would let me know. And that is all we ever do on Halloween. Is trick or treat. We don't talk to the dead or worship them. We don't dance naked around a fire pit. All we ever do is dress up as something silly and get candy from people. As for dressing as something evil. Most kids dress up as superheroes, and this year I saw a little girl dressed as a can of soda pop. Anyway, as I stated in the last thread about this. I am in no way telling anyone else what they should do concerning Halloween. If you feel in your heart that it is something you should not partake in, then don't do it. Do as the Lord directs you to do. I guess that is about it. Thank You. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I avoid it merely out of not having kids and also not wishing to stuff the pockets of greedy corporations. I'd back up Lady Kay's statement. So long as someone isn't doing any witchcraft or busting in people's windows to kill their black cats, it's just folks having fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
