It depends on what someone means about God’s plan for them, because it should include His will for every detail of our lives, not just that He might will someone to be a missionary or pastor. What’s in His Word should lead us to Him for His leading on how to apply it in all situations in our lives.
And on what you wrote about King David, there isn’t a spiritual comparison there. Without shining a Christian light on Halloween and exposing its Satanism and adopting an alternative Christian celebration, children are being exposed to that Satanism without protection. And children actually learn to fight Satan by slowly learning to put on the whole armor of God.
“it should include His will for every detail of our lives”
Absolutely.
“And on what you wrote about King David, there isn’t a spiritual comparison there.”
God blessed David after this great betrayal of the Philistines who trusted him — slaughtered men, women, and children. It was the ultimate masquarade. It’s about as close to wearing a devil suit that you can find in the Bible.
And God blessed him. Blessings are spiritual.
“...children are being exposed to that Satanism without protection.”
Well there I agree. Horror movies, for example, almost always punish fornication with death or near-death and mournful loss. Witch boards never turn out good [except maybe during the Supernatural series sometimes]. The game, ‘Bloody Mary’ NEVER turns out good.
Parents are involved in Halloween activities. The more they are the better. But they have to have a fun loving spirit to make it fun.
And BTW — electric light is great when you are attacked by Demons. Jesus is better, but electric light is helpful. Circles of salt help too.
