Halloween is celebrated by millions of people as a fun time for kids--
putting on costumes and going door-to-door to get candy. But it is also known as a time of witches, ghouls, goblins, and ghosts. On one hand, some see halloween as a harmless time of fun and on the other, a ghastly and demonically inspired night to be avoided. The word Halloween is derived from the term, "All Hallows Eve," which occurred on Oct. 31--the end of summer in Northwestern Europe. "All Saints Day" or "All Hallows Day" was the next Day, Nov. 1 st . Therefore, Halloween is the eve of All Saints Day. What does the Bible say about Halloween? Nothing. But it does speak concerning witches, the occult, and paganism. The Bible definitely speaks negatively about occultic practices, spirits, and witches and condemns not only the practice but also the people who are involved in it. As Christians, we are to have nothing to do with the occult. Tarot Cards, contacting the dead, sances, lucky charms, etc., are all unbiblical and can harm a Christian's fellowship with God and open the Christian to demonic oppression. Most Christians know this and avoid these activities. But, the question still remains. Since there are ancient pagan connections and present occultic connections, what is the Christian to do? The answer is simple: Yes and No. Lets 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 Gods 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. So I found out all the tings about Halloween from the Internet and in my opinion celebrating Halloween it depends on each person way of thinking. My point of view says that we sould celebrate Halloween because is not that evil to have a little fun on an certen theme just because other people use this holyday to do bad thing and to support satan or whatever.
