To tell the truth I use to look forward to Halloween.
As a young child I resented my mother for never taking me trick or treating, and spent most of my teenaged years trying to make up for lost times.
There was always something fun in dressing up and free candy but there was also something mystical surrounding October the 31st.
Although my mother use to say Halloween was a night of evil also known as Satan's Birthday.
I never really understood what she meant after all I was young and wasn't raised in a bible based household. It wasn't until recently over the last 4 years that we as a family really started to seek and understand the true meaning of what it meant to be a child of God
My perspective of God and Jesus was totally different then compare to now. In contrast my perspective of Satan was different as well. It was kind of like the cartoon version of the angel on one shoulder and then devil on the other.
Everyday I learn more and more during my journey.
This is why I decided to write this. As Halloween slowly approaches and Chirstians/Chirstian Parents are Considering Costumes, Planning Parties, and/or Going to a Church version of Trick or Treating.
In no way or form in my opinon should you have any celebrations on this day.
Did you ever ask yourself where did the origin of Halloween come from? Whats the actual dangers of Halloween? Why is Halloween consider a Holiday, and If its a Holy Day what why is it so dark and gloomy? Well hopefully sharing a few things from my research can answer those questions.
According to my research Halloween originate from the ancient celtics, Who basically are ancient Irish. During this period they had scholors and teachers called "Druids". (Some places referr to "Druids" as Clergymen)
The anciet Celtics celebrated their New Years on November the 1st. So starting October the 31st through November the 2nd they celebrated. (Sound pretty ok, Right?)
Here's the creepy stuff, During that celebration the Druids made sacrifaces to Samhain. Who is Samhain? He's "Lord of the Dead" according to my bible based teaching. Satan is the "King of Death". The dead are assembled by of course Samhain who decides what body their souls would go into next. Some where humans and the really evil ones where said to become animals. On these days those spirits go about tormenting the village and returning back to their homes.
"Your probably saying we don't celebrate Halloween in such ways. That's anicet stuff from 2,000 years ago, and it was in Ireland not the good ole United States."
According to my research here's where everything becomes a bit familiar.
Those same evil "Druids" dressed up and went from door to door asking for what ever they wanted. ( Mostly Bread, Fruit, and Cheese). When a person refused to comply with those demands the Druids had the nerves to curse them. Also the "Druids" where known for carving demonic faces into turnip in order to worship as a personal God. Maybe it's just me but that
Sounds like our typical. Trick or Treat and Jack 'O Lantern scenario. Thats supposedly the origin.
Does it still seem harmless? Your probably wondering how this apply to us in this present day and age.
Well did you know that Satan has worshippers to?
Well in case you didn't know he does. There's actually Churches of Satan across the world but anyways back to the worshippers of satanic. Halloween is the most important day on the Satanic Calendar because it truly is the birthday of Satan (Momma tried to tell me) on this night Evil Spirits are Raised, Demons roam the streets, Curses are Placed, Sacrifices and a number of Demonic things take place.
That why I personally could never understand how Churches could do events on Halloween? Not unless its a Prayer Meeting! Doing any form of celebration on this day is still celebrating Satan's Birthday.
Now ask your self why is such a day geared around children? Maybe because they are the most Vulnerable, Naive, and Blind. Thats why we has Adults especially Chirstian Adults have the responsibility to inform them properly.
I purposely left somethings out about my research. I challenge whom ever reads this to do their own research. Maybe you'll find something I missed or something you didn't agree with that I said. So leave me some comments.
What is the truth behind bobbing for apples?
