As a Christian I am offended by Halloween. Every time I see a witch and think of all the animals, babies, and others that are sacrificed in gruesome ways on the devil’s alter on this unholy day it makes me want to cry. If people would realize that all that stuff isn’t just innocent fun they would not participate.
When and where did you actually see a witch?
You know, it isn’t innocent fun, if you don’t make it innocent fun! We have always dressed up and went trick or treating. It was about dressing up, and having fun, and eating candy....
It is about “All Saints Eve”...the eve of all saints day, the day that Martin Luther nailed his thesis on the door of the Catholic Church, and scared the crap out of them!!
That is what we celebrate. I can not help what witches celebrate...they celebrate the rising of the moon, and the changing of the seasons too...does that mean that I have to hide in the cellar on those days?
The kid in this story was doing the right thing. He was taking a celebration and using it as a witnessing tool. This is what we always do. We make up bags of candy, with tracts in them, and nice cards telling kids that Jesus loves them. When my kids would treat or treat, we printed up little slips of paper, with a verse on them, and gave them to ever house! Don’t sit home with your lights off and fear the devil...go out and rebuke him! Take the day back for Jesus!
