We don't celebrate Halloween. 10/30/2010
Recently, we were invited to a Halloween party. We declined. The look of confusion on our friends faces told us that they did not approve of our decision and felt that we were forbidding our children to partake in one of the most common secular and pagan rituals. Let me state our position loud and clear, we do not celebrate the dead, witches, satan, monsters or anything of the like. Instead we will purchase some candy for our children and stay at home and spend time with them. We do not want to give occasion to the devil in any part and I do not want my kids thinking that it is ok. Even if their heart is in the right place. As Christians we are called to be set apart and that is what we strive to do. Instead we will reading bible stories to the kids and talking about the one we should be celebrating, Jesus ! We hope everyone has a safe Halloween if you choose to participate. Be careful and be on guard even seemingly allow Comments Your comment will be posted after it is approved. Leave a Reply |
