homelesschristian View Profile History	🤔🤔 should christians celebrate halloween ❓❓🎃🎭 Posted : 11 Oct, 2023 03:02 PM the answer is simple: Yes and No. Let’s look at the negative first. the Christian is not to be involved with or support the occult. witchcraft, demonism, or any other thing that uplifts the occult. To do so is to contradict God’s word, dabble in the demonic, and invite judgment from God. If a Halloween celebration is centered on demons, devils, spirits, etc., I would say don’t have anything to do with it. On the other hand, it isn’t wrong to dress up in a costume and go door-to-door saying “Trick or Treat.” Provided that the costume isn’t demonic, I can’t see anything wrong with this. It’s just fun for the kids. Take a look at the Christmas tree. It was originally an ancient fertility symbol. Yet, it has become a representation of Christmas and the place where gifts are placed. Are the Christians then paying homage to an ancient pagan fertility god? Not at all. They do not consider it pagan and are simply joining in a cultural event and giving no honor to anything unscriptural. Think about this. In the Bible in 1 Cor. 10:23-33, Paul speaks about meat sacrificed to idols. This meat was often sold in the meat market; and the question arose, “Should a Christian eat such meat?” Paul said in verse 25, “Eat anything that is sold in the meat market, without asking questions for conscience’ sake.” This is most interesting. He says it is okay to eat the meat bought in the market place even though that meat may have been sacrificed to idols. Then in verses 28-29 he says, “But if anyone should say to you, ‘This is meat sacrificed to idols,’ do not eat it, for the sake of the one who informed you, and for conscience’ sake; 29 I mean not your own conscience, but the other man’s; for why is my freedom judged by another’s conscience?” (NASB). Paul is saying that if you find out the meat was sacrificed to idols, don’t eat it–not because of you but because of the other person. In other words, eating that meat won’t affect you. But, it may affect the attitude of another who does not understand the freedom the Christian has in Christ. Is it any different with Halloween (or Christmas)? No. Even though Halloween has pagan origins and because of your freedom in Christ, you and/or your kids can dress up in costumes and go door-to-door and just have fun. However, if you are not comfortable with doing this, then you should not. If you know of a person who would be hindered by doing it, then you shouldn’t either Post Reply

Christians should use all available opportunities of reaching out to people for the Kingdom‼️‼️‼️ Imagine having children from the neighborhood come direct to your door to hear a about the creator God who made them‼️‼️‼️‼️ INTRIGUING inspiring messages about the God who saves doesn’t need to be lengthy theological discourses in such cases. Keep in mind, all you’re doing is planting a simple seed in these children’s minds. Christians should become aware of the many ways and means of sharing Jesus including precise concise impactful 1or2 sentence sharing‼️‼️ Yes, use these holidays as teachable moment opportunities‼️‼️‼️ Post Reply

WalkNTalk View Profile History	🤔🤔 should christians celebrate halloween ❓❓🎃🎭 Posted : 24 Oct, 2023 06:52 PM I think Halloween is the Devil's Holiday; I think candy is partaking like communion, Mass and the Eucharist. I once was invited to a Halloween alternative at a church. There was Dracula dressed with blood going down his cheek and they played a movie one created as a pun on the Son of Sam. I do not think such things should exist in the church. I was disappointed by the gathering. Post Reply

CarlSolaScriptura View Profile History	🤔🤔 should christians celebrate halloween ❓❓🎃🎭 Posted : 13 May, 2025 08:02 PM I "celebrate" Halloween by evangelizing. I hand out a plastic grocery bag containing a good quality and quantity of sweets and some combination of: The Gospel of John; apologetic material (like More Than a Capenter); comic books (e.g. from Creation Miniseries and Kingstone comic), various tracts, and different books different years- I plan to include A Jesus Person Promise Book next Halloween. your servant in Jesus Post Reply
