HALLOWEEN IS A PAGAN AND ANTI-CHRISTIAN HOLIDAY

“Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day...” Ephesians 6:13

There is a time of year where we can openly talk about the "evil day". That time of year is undoubtedly Halloween, which is not only one day but a series of weeks.

It is presented to the children and their parents as an innocent and fun holiday, but, it not only hides a past and present great evil, but it is evil even in its presentation (Deuteronomy 18:9-12).

Halloween is a well calculated act of witchcraft, and actually designed to harm mostly children and young people, when their parents, through neglect or ignorance, pay no attention to its spiritual danger.

Why allow our children to participate in this evil, although apparently just for fun? We as parents have a responsibility before God to take care of our children. Do not allow your children to participate in this evil!

Halloween has nothing to do with godly tradition; it is pure evil, presenting a more or less desirable and innocent aspect, while hiding an evil abomination that we can never fully discard Halloween.

REMOVE ALL DISTRACTIONS FROM YOUR LIFE

We are engaged in open warfare, and the vast majority of believers do no perceive as much. They live engrossed in their daily work and chores. They do not realize that satin is planning against them, and is allowed to cast a shadow of black death, and yet the Word of God exhorts us “lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant his devices" (II Corinthians 2:11). One of the devices of the devil is to lead God's people on a constant distraction.

The devil fears the Christian who prays, intercedes, cast out demons, but laughs at a distracted Christian. That kind of Christian does not pose any kind of threat to the enemy of our souls.

A clear example of the distracted believer is the church of Laodicea (Rev. 3:14). The Laodicéans walked more than distracted in his own self-sufficiency, in his own mistake of thinking that they had everything, and they did not need anything. They lived immersed in the trap of banality and complacency, this is a major distraction.

Today, the same spirit of Laodicea is more than present in the church sector. The believer, who is spiritually asleep, is not a threat to the enemy. There are many ways to put the believer to sleep, one is telling him that to pay attention to the works of the devil, or talk about the devil, is to bring glory to the devil, and that therefore it is best to leave any mention of it from our conversations, sermons, teaching, etc. Anything about his influence and work. The believer then, becomes spiritually lethargic, and stop fighting, why fight, if the devil was defeated on the Cross? Taking this last biblical sentence out of context, he manages to lull the believer to sleep, and meanwhile, Satan takes immense advantage to continue doing his work of destruction.

Many believers who are sincere and intelligent, but they think that the spiritual world has little or no impact on them. They live with their backs to the spiritual reality, but we cannot pay more for that luxury. Reality is catching up, and the people of God must learn to draw their sword and learn to use it against the spiritual enemy.

THE ORIGINS OF HALLOWEEN

Halloween was originally a Celtic festival which was celebrated since the year 300 B.C. The Celtics were controlled and directed by the Druids, who were nothing but Satanists of the time (the Druids even exist today, and are very active). The Celts were a people of northern Europe, scattered throughout England, Ireland and northern France mainly. This festival marked the beginning of winter. The Druids worshiped the "god of death", that is to say, the devil. Every October 31, these witches celebrated the eve of the Celtic new year, in honor of that false deity called Samhain. They did it so by providing him with human and animal sacrifices. The festival of Samhain, called "the festival of death", was officially celebrated and even today is recognized by all Satanists and occultists.

Those cursed witches went from house to house, demanding all kinds of food and other things for consumption and to offer their "god of death". If the villagers did not give these foods they demanded, they would cast a diabolical spell on their homes, the effect of which was the death of one of the family members.

They carried with them on that day a great hollow turnip and a face engraved on the front, representing the satanic spirit of which they depended for power and knowledge. The turnip was lit by a candle inside it, which was used as a lantern when they went from house to house that night. When this practice came to America in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, turnips were not as abundant; the native plant that replaced it was the pumpkin.

HALLOWEEN, THE BIGGEST SATANIST PARTY OF THE YEAR

Today, the same spirit of exaltation of evil is still present at this event, even though much effort is made to conceal it. The devil loves to cause harm through the seemingly naive and inconsequential. An eminently proven fact is that the night of every October 31, Satanists acts are performed with human sacrifices, especially of babies, violations of children and adults, and all kinds of meetings related to the exaltation of evil, where blood runs in abundance. And with all this, a vast majority of Christians sleep.

Instead of praying and interceding against this, many even participate in this festival naively allowing their children to dress up as witches, skeletons, demons, etc., and play the sad and regrettable "trick or treat" which originally was nothing more than to curse, kill and rob the family that did not lend itself to their needs in the manner in which we will see.

The Druids roamed the neighborhood house to house demanding a child or a virgin, and between piercing screams, the sacrifice was consumed. The victims head was torn off, and this was impaled on a spear. Others were burned alive at the stake.

If the family was able to satisfy the demands, the druids would leave a large hollow turnip with a candle inside, to prevent the demons from come in and kill that family. That was considered the "treat".

But if the family refused, then those bloodthirsty witches marked the door of the house, and that night Satan had free entry to destroy this family, the "trick" was serious.

Many will say that it is a thing of the past, but they are wrong. Every year Halloween has more roots, more strength, and increasingly is spreading everywhere, taking advantage of schools, colleges and educational institutions in general and their educational supervisors.

Why is there so much interest in expanding Halloween? In addition to the usual business that merchants do not want to lose, there is another reason, far more sinister. It is well known that Halloween night is the most important of the current Satanist calendar.

We have a firsthand testimony from a former Satanist, which was one of the very important witches in Western European and the British Isles, who became a Christian, Doreen Irving. She said that if Christian parents had any idea what Halloween really is, they would not even mention that word in front of their children, and all that it entails is death and fear.

IT IS NOT A FABLE

For many, Halloween is just a costume party where children take to the streets in search of candy and gifts, the reality is totally different. This is the problem, when the Christian lives so dethatched from evil, not fighting it, but rather living with it.

Let's stop being distracted and stop sleeping. Let's see how effectively we can combat this evil in spiritual terms, as well as everyone else. Do not forget that we fight against the darkness (Eph. 6:12).

WE ARE FIGHTING AGAINST THE DARKNESS

The Bible says in James 4:7 "Submit yourselves therefore to God Resist the devil and he will flee from you." On many occasions, we face circumstances like this and do not know what to do. Therefore, we can give some guidelines that can help us get out of a dangerous situationin the spiritual realm.

We are well aware that throughout the month of October, Satanists profess a great evil activity. More specifically, on the night of October 31, all Satanists worldwide gather to worship the devil, renewing covenants, cursing Christians, invoke evil spirits, release demons, and human sacrifices, etc.

What we must do is: First "Submit to God." This means that we give God control of our lives, doing His will and live in holiness. We must know His Word and fellowship with Him.

Second: "Resist the devil". Resist the devil, does not mean that we should stoically withstand any attack of the devil with passivity. This is not the idea of ​​God when He speaks to resist. By contrast, resist, means undoing the devil's work confronting him and his army in prayer and intercession.

We live in a day where we cannot afford the luxury of spiritual naps. We must be vigilant, because the enemy has risen as a river. But we give thanks, because when the devil does this, the Spirit of God, raises a standard against him (Isaiah 59:19). We have the victory secured with Jesus.

I would be very good that on these days, more so since the day before to the end of the current 31, we that we pray and fast. We should pray that God have mercy on all those children, young people, virgins, men and women who are kidnapped with the intention of being tortured and killed. This is horribly real, and we cannot simply ignore it. Let us kneel before God and implore His mercy! Let's bind the power of the shed blood! Let's bind as the Holy Spirit will reveal to us, to all those demons and evil spirits that haunt the people of God and lead the children of the devil to undertake the greatest atrocities in order to get more power! (Mt 18:18, Eph. 6:12)
