Chuck Missler, argues the celebration of the pagan festival of Halloween is now a $2.4 billion merchandiser's market. Fifty percent of Americans will decorate for Halloween (compared to over 80% for Christmas). It is now the third most popular party activity, after the Superbowl and New Year's Eve. This is always a difficult time for Christians, especially those with children. It is also a dangerous time for some, since many of the seemingly "harmless" involvements associated with Halloween can also be "entries" for the occult, and can prove very tragic for the unwary.
There is only one true God, (Isa 44:6, 8; 46:9). Thus, only one true religion. Missler teaches that Scripture declares "all gods of the nations are idols" (Ps 96:5). All false religion and idolatry is by definition involved in demon worship - whether or not the participants recognize it (Acts 26:18). The spiritual power and reality behind idols involves demons (I Cor 10:20, Ps 106:37). The Bible tells us to shun occultic practices. This series will help you understand the pagan background to the modern Halloween traditions practiced today. Notes included. 2 cassettes.

I wish that the church as a whole would understand that this so called Holiday is a serious offense to God. We need to seriously think about and pray about Ephesians 6 (The whole armor of God) We deal with the spiritual realm and not only the physical; God wants us to remember this, and to have it be a part of our influence on choices. Missler provides us with important information that I hope Christians will take grasp of and apply to our lives, remembering we are called to be santified.

This is so ridiculous! I can understand wanting to guide your children through a healthy Christian lifestyle, but give me a break. No wonder why a lot of people think Christians are no fun! A kid can dress up like his favorite character once a year and love the Lord, too!
