I did a full Live teaching talking through all of the original roots of Halloween and go into each point in more detail. I encourage you to listen to it if you have further questions. 🙏🏼
Do satanist celebrate the resurrection of Christ? No, why? Because the children of darkness don’t celebrate the light. So why would a child of light celebrate a holiday dedicated to the kingdom of darkness. Light and darkness oppose each other. I heard so many ‘roots’ of Halloween and frankly whatever they are, the truth about it is the now. What is the holidays intentions now? What are satanist putting on their altars on that holiday? I encourage you listen to testimonies of ex witches now surrendered to Christ so you can understand what their true intentions are on not just that day but the whole month. Don’t let the enemy fool you, he wants the children of God to be confused, he gets a laugh when a Christian is deceived by the ‘innocence of Halloween’. I pray God reveals the truth to you
No Spencer T.T Halloween and Christmas and Valentine's Day and whatnot are Paganism. Even though the bad intention isn't there, ignorance leads to hell. Even greeting someone happy Halloween or merry Christmas etc is an act of joining their celebration, and if you research the history of it all, you'll know it's paganism. even dec 25 was taken from someone else's birthday T.T And we are Christians, not Catholics. Catholics consider themselves as Christians, but as a Christian we know they're just getting further and further away from the real God for violating the 2nd commandment. Their churh probably lost their star. They have no wisdom in their teachings, the word is not alive in their church. So there is no reason for us to follow their celebrations. Jesus Christ never had this. In fact, there are only 3 celebrations God told us to follow for all generations and Jesus still did, I know you know those. The funny thing is that other religions has their festivals and other celebrations, but we Christians only borrow/joins in their celebrations. No hate Spencer, just wanted to tell you the truth that I've learned cause I agree in a lot of things you've said so far. But not on this. I will pray for your understanding 🙏
God said THIS in Hosea 4:6, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Spencer, you are treading on very thin ice with God when you speak of things that you don't have knowlegde of and lead His children astray. Did you know that Catholicism is Paganism and Paganism is Satanism? It is idolatry at its core and God hates it. What more then if you lead His children to believe idolatry is okay? I HIGHLY suggest you ask God for His wisdom, understanding and knowledge about what the Catholic church really stands for. I grew up Catholic and went to Catholic school. I know all about it and it is EVIL. Please repent and ask God to forgive you for teaching His children that celebrating Paganism is okay. Their blood is on YOUR hands and God does not take that lightly! Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
From the Catholic Church is enough to know it has pagan roots just like the other cultures brother. Got some biblical notes Ephesians 5:8-13 is clear to not have communion with darkness rather expose it and more. Not a dispute it’s clearly logical and a lot of the historical narrative you probably have is bias towards the catholic holiday bc what it is is to pay homage to the dead which they already do lol they pray to the dead. You know this right? Maybe if you divide the word correctly you would also know the Catholic Church has nothing to do with the biblical church and should be viewed as other religions just as Islam and others clearly 1 john explains those who came out of us but are not of us? Please I’m not being legalistic I am just pointing out biblical truths that contextually can be exegeted to fit against these paganism teachings that the church already has lol. It represents nothing good and it is commercialized as innocent and then Christian’s use it as a promotion for kids “trunk or treat”?Its obvious in 2nd Corinthians 11:14 these are these evil ministries that contextually fit the argument and completely demolish the belief that this holiday represents anything Christ like. And there’s more scripture to add but you get the point. But tbh Maybe it’s because you also support heretical pastors such as David diga Hernandez? Maybe your points are already fallible bc your gospel is corrupt by a narrative of false teachers that mentor you? Please divide the word deeper and see that Christmas isn’t like Halloween at all to subject it to a analogy. Halloween was initially created to pay homage to the dead that’s the true root please research the real non biased narrative. God bless and grace and peace from our Lord Jesus Christ.🙏🏽
@@aliveinhim9793so first off, catholicism is not paganism, by definition, and if you are saying catholicism is idolatry, chances are very high you lack the very same knowledge you claim he lacks. So while I am not Catholic because I do not believe the rituals they perform have the weight that they believe they do, they are not idolators, when they "pray" to the saints and to mother Mary, they mean it in the old definition of "to ask" they ask these figures that they believe to be holier than themselves to talk to God on their behalf, which is no different than the Protestant idea of asking our brothers and sisters in Christ to pray for us. If you believe Halloween is Idolatry, it is no more idolatry than when children play pretend as characters they like. If a child were to dress up as Moses (who murdered a man if you remember) because they admire him, would you accuse that child of Idolatry? If a child mimics their parents, is that child committing idolatry by worshiping their parents? Let us remember that we are to imitate Christ and that Christ came not to condemn but to save. Stop talking of others being evil unless you have no evil anywhere in you. Talk instead about what is good, and what is good will definitely come.
Here is why i hugely disagree with you brother (if this comes out as a rebuke be humble enough to take it to the Lord and see what He has to tell you) *As an ex witch, many "proffesing christians" were so easily destroyed by witchcraft because you wanted to play at the devils playground simply because you didn’t want to miss the fun.* Halloween was never a christian holiday much less meant to glorify God rather the god of darkness. The main reason why people will dress up was to posess the abilities of the spirit they decided to mimic. Even the pumpkin and the candy has a much more deeper symbolism than you think. So you saying that we could use halloween as to somehow glorify God sounds the same way as someone telling me they could use the oujia board to communicate with the Holy Spirit. *DEUTORONAMY **12:31** You must not worship the Lord your God in their way, because in worshiping their gods, they do all kinds of detestable things the Lord hates. They even burn their sons and daughters in the fire as sacrifices to their gods.* *christians become the biggest sacrifice in the day of halloween, they become the biggest prizes because the enemy knows the truth. Thats why most disappearances and rapes are done on one of those days in the year* If a warlock/witch had a hard time destroying a christian, a lot of the times all they need to do is wait until halloween because they themselves break their own hedge. *Ecclesiastes 10:8 (KJV) He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.* If you want to draw people to the Lord draw them by being the salt of the world, the uniqueness that comes from being born again (set apart) and fruits of the spirit that reflects Jesus, not the devil. *We shouldn't win souls by mimicking the world*
*i noticed a pattern when it came to the christians that weren't destroyed by witchcraft and it was those who know how to lived a set apart life for God,* That includes halloween
Sorry u just come off crazy. Just have a moral conscience it’s that simple. Not everyone that celebrates Halloween is a rapist. Some are in fact 9 year olds looking for a fun time and to get candy. Let’s get real
Honestly, contrary to most of the comment section, I’ve always felt the same as you on this. Grown up using Halloween as an excuse to dress up in innocent costumes and eat candy, while still being well aware of its dark roots. Halloween was always a way for us to connect with our neighbours and when opportunity presented itself, share the gospel. I was reminded of Genesis 50:20 in a similar conversation a few weeks ago. God can use anything for His glory!
1000% Amen! Jesús is so powerful he uses everything for his good and glory. Best time to share Gospel tracts with everyone plus candy. Hijacked this holiday with good and relax dress up and enjoy it❤🎃🎉😇🍩🍫🍬🌟🙏⭐️👏👍🍪🕊️
God’s word says otherwise it’s not about intentions. It’s about thus saith the Lord. Think about Cain and Abel. One thought to worship God with his own intentions rather than what God actually commanded
Not to mention your subjecting your children to all the evil displays of Halloween, which is desensitizing, and to the smaller children, I can imagine the fear or anxiety and nightmares that come from looking at some of these evil to the core Halloween decorations. The Bible clearly states, I will set no wicked thing before my eyes, because the window to the soul is the eyes
Thessalonians 5:22 = "Abstain from all appearances of evil." If we are out with crowds of other people who may dress up in evil things such as witches, gouls, and even demons just to get candy, how is that glorifying God? How can others tell your a christian when your other with the crowds of others who dress that way. Halloween was never meant to glorify God .. :
Idk everything about halloween but from what I have heard Halloween was originally a catholic holiday that honored the saints It was called all hallowseve So the devil twisted it
@legofan7255 So the 'een' in Halloween refers to "All Saints/hallows eve". And these Sajnts were NOT biblical saints, they were priests who worshipped the devil. Halloween originated from a Celtic holiday where the people did rituals and saw it as the start of the season of darkness. They even tried to communicate with the dead (which is the main theme of Halloween; death) and so Halloween is very evil because there's the reoccurring theme of death, witches, gouls, and even demons. This does not at all glorify God and it is evil, I hope that helped. I mean of course it's still your choice to celebrate it but know that it's evil and dangerous and can open doors in your life for bad spiritual beings to enter
Here is the story about Halloween: Halloween originates from the Celts (a folk group) who over 2000 years ago laid the foundation for Halloween. Their religion was called druism. In short, druism is a form of worship of nature and various gods via mystical rituals. Halloween was the New Year of the Celts, celebrating the sun god Baal. But they also invoked the ruler of the kingdom of the dead, hoping for a reunion with dead family members and friends. Halloween has its origins from Samhain, which is a pagan religious festival and is about welcoming the harvest. The night before Samhain, it is believed that the veil between the world of the dead and the world of the living is particularly thin. Here the dead, ghosts and spirits could penetrate our world and come to visit. Large bonfires were made where they would leave food and drink for the spirits. Sometimes they would even leave portions from their crop to calm the spirits. And some put food out the door to prevent the spirits from entering the home. Guising / trick or treat: Guising was part of Samhain. Guising consisted of people dressing up in costumes and going from house to house reciting songs in exchange for food. What we know today as trick or treat! The costumes were supposed to resemble fairies and spirits. By pretending to be a spirit, one believed that one would be protected from them. In addition, unpleasant types could come sneaking from the kingdom of death and the surrounding area, but they tried to protect themselves from them by carving creepy beet lamps and putting on dangerous clothes themselves. Then they could be scared away. (it's actually just a fruitless act that takes part in darkness)
If one cannot see how demonic this is no matter how much you try to lean unto your own understanding....im sorry i meant "rationalize it", i would highly encourage you to humbly look at the actual story and discern thereafter, and also pray to The Holy Father for discernment! :)
@@tatyanafg2557if this is origin story and its demonic thens its most ritually beautiful and unique authentic tradition celts have instead of believing in adopted religious custom with loads of removal of religious doctrines and adulterations of interpretation and heretical blaming
I want to say this. Halloween is dark Halloween has pagan roots Halloween is a custom of the secular world Halloween does not imitate God or the Gospel in any way Halloween may be used in a godly manner, but in what way. Does it help unbelievers? Does it strengthen our faith? Is it just a way to have coarse fun and get candy? Would Jesus advocate for this? Does Halloween fall on thr category of following righteousness, seeking purity and the fruits of spirit? Is dressing up as characters or evil theme people a representation of God or kingdom? Should we add in scripture that Christians should celebrate Halloween?
You can participate in halloween without doing worldly things. You don’t have to engage in gluttony by celebrating thanksgiving or greed with christmas.
I agree if u participate in Halloween ur participating in the devils holiday it’s obvious Halloween is filled with all these scary bad stuff you think that’s from God yea no I don’t think so either
@@jaysontatum5797 how so? If unbelievers saw pastors and Christians celebrating it the same way they do. How can we set an example. Wouldn't it be harder to share gospel
Music was created by God for our enjoyment and I believe for his also, music doesn’t belong to the devil however more than ever, we are seeing the devil use it as a tool for darkness to celebrate evil and turn ppl from God. Just because music is Gods creation doesn’t mean I’m going to listen to all forms of music, because some forms would make me vulnerable to the devil allowing him to impact me in any way he wants. Because he works through music. In the same way God has blessed us with 365 days a year. Why would I choose one of those days to celebrate a tradition that I know the devil uses as a tool to desensitise people from the things of God ?
All I know: we are called to be set apart. If Jesus was here right now, do you think you'd take Him trick or treating? Do you think you'd set up decorations with Him? The obvious answer: no, as deep inside we have discerned the spirits behind halloween, and we know the Spirit of The Lord does not lie there.
1. This is lukewarm. Neither hot nor cold. You should have a clear stance. I think the answer to what you should celebrate is clear when you stand on the word of God. 2. Wide is the gate. If you're doing what everyone else is doing, you're probably going down the wrong path. Do not be conformed to this present world (Rom 12:2). There should be no confusion on where you stand: with the world or with God. Don't seek the approval of men. You have to really love your flesh to continue celebrating a holiday that has nothing to do with promoting what is good and holy, that does not glorify God.
Agreed! Samhain was a pagen holiday FIRST and the pope back then wanted to Christianize the pagens, so he allowed them to keep their Samhain Halloween holiday as long as it’s done in the name of…. So I read from history sites.
FACTSS!! I was just about to say! He is leading people to be lukewarm Christian’s. Understanding Gods word truly then you will clearly be able to discern between what you should and shouldn’t do. What about Halloween worships God? And it you not with God you against him, he is VERY lukewarm!
Guess what halloween, christmas, valintines day and even easter is dmeonic we need to move away these pagan holidays and bring out the biblical holidays like passover and the feast of the trumpets
Halloween was a pagan holiday celebrated by the Celtics in Ireland, before the Catholics had anything to do with it. The truth is simple and if something takes so much back and forth reasoning to convince us that it’s okay in Jesus’ eyes, it’s probably not. But the answer to every question is in The Word, and this is the scripture the Lord spoke to my heart: “Therefore, come out from among unbelievers, and separate yourselves from them, says the Lord. Don’t touch their filthy things, and I will welcome you.” 2 Corinthians 6:17 NLT
Easter also has pagen roots, but clearly Easter isn't satanic. I'm catholic and celebrate all Hallows day, so just because pagans have their own version of a holiday doesn't make the Christian one bad.
As an ex New Ager, now a baby baptized Christian, I stopped celebrating and participating in Halloween, which celebrates death and is heavily influenced by magic, several years before I got saved. I don’t wanna be pulled back into what Jesus saved me from.
@@ArashiNoSeitoHalloween is actually derived from many country pagen origins, Samhain, All Saints’ Day, day of the dead, I believe there’s another one but can’t remember the place. I did a study on it you could google about Samhain and origins of Halloween and do in-depth research. One of the things is dressing up , I forget which holiday and who celebrated but the reason for it is that the dead spirits wouldn’t come and “ get them”. Trick or treats is derived from Samhain I believe where they use to leave out meals and treats for the spirits so the spirits didn’t play tricks on them. It’s all derived from evil paganism
@@shell7142 okay so you really are one of those people who believes everything they read. anyway, no, october 31st was already a date used for all hallows eve before the church even expanded to the celtic region. all saints day is a catholic holiday, which all hallows EVE is the EVE of all saints day, dia de los muertos is a mexican cultural day and does not contradict any Christian teachings. its cultural, not religious. "i did a study on it you could google.." oh my... you really didnt do any research. you typed in "halloween origins" and found that myth and said "ooh this misinformation would be fun to spread". no, trick or treat is not derived from samhain. trick or treat is from the early days of all hallows eve, when children would dress up as Biblical figures and go to houses and they would pray for your lost ones if you gave them a treat (a candy). not to mention, samhain was never a religious holiday. it was a cultural celtic holiday, never a religious one. try this video and you can learn something: ruclips.net/video/1SkmhjttIds/видео.htmlsi=1kT2JYrQ87Hif4ug
As a Catholic couldn't agree more... Hallow means holy. It's a day to celebrate the saints and then the next day is day of the dead and we celebrate that day for our lost love ones and friends.
FR, people in the comment section obviously has not done their research, claiming it’s a “satanist” holiday and saying it has pagan roots. It has Catholic roots and Pagans are not Satanist. The fact people get mad over a misinterpreted holiday is just sad 💀
@@Canis_latrans.505 the people in the comments has obviously not done research and believes what people tell them, they ruin holidays for their children because they decided to believe everything they hear.
With all respect I think this perspective on halloween is very dangerous. Because even if you don't dress up as "diabolical" things and just want to pick up candy from your neighborhood you're opening spiritual doors since unconsciously your promoting and being associated with this holiday that definitively doesn't glorify God. You don't need to know the history of halloween to see that what it promotes with it's decorations and everything associated to it, it glorifies death and destruction and as Christians we don't celebrate death, we celebrate life in Jesus Christ. Therefore, we must be careful in the things we promote as Christians bc the spiral world is very real and we can't be irresponsible in how we live our lives and testify to the world what God has done in us.
We actually do celebrate death. The death of Christ Jesus on the cross... The trampling of death by death, our death with Christ, good Friday. Which, if one understands Halloween in its historical framework, knows that it soon followed by all saints day. Halloween, if it is celebrated in isolation, is rather morbid. If we celebrated only the death of Christ and not his rising, then we would be believers in a dark mystery, but we celebrate his life in union with his death. In the same way, we ought to celebrate Halloween within the Christian calendar.
@@Heart.rupture Christmas doesn’t have pagan roots lol, the practices of Christmas that people say are pagan weren’t actually adopted until after Christmas was a thing, and even then it’s debatable if they’re even pagan, this has been debunked many times
@@AH-xo1ev Christianity was being spread at a time of great paganism. The church fathers combined a lot of the pagan celebrations with Christianity to make it more suitable and an easier transition for them. Where do you think having a tree in ur house came from? I’m sure jesus didn’t tell u to do that. Jesus didn’t tell the people to do a lot of things…but that’s a discussion for another time
No disrespect, i love your content and i pray that God continues to bless you, ur marriage, and ur channel. However, i encourage you to dive deep into what happens on halloween and the doors youre opening when you participate in it. Its not just a holiday. Its a spiritual battle.
@@gabrieljoselebron6762you're absolutely right! How did you know?? You open the door to the devil and his demons of darkness to step right on into your life. God's people can't sit at both tables. It's either light or dark, no in between.
@gabrieljoselebron6762 Whether or not God decides to hear your prayer as sincere or sarcasm, i also pray the same. I dont usually comment on videos, and i do not want to engage in keyboard wars. I am simply rebuking with love.
Hi Spencer, I love you, but you are wrong on this one. Please, pray about it and seek guidance from The Holy Spirit. See what's usually associated with halloween, whether it is the true origin or not, and ask yourself if you want to be associated with it, as a christian. May God bless you, show you the truth and forgive you, in Jesus name.
See I agree with you imagine people celebrating Halloween for whatever reasons whether it's the old pagan gods whether it's worshiping Satan whatever The meaning they have has nothing to do with God/Jesus in any way even if your intentions are for example you're not worshiping anyone else and it's just a fun holiday I don't think that makes a difference. I think of it like this we'll use the devil for example he wants 100,000 people's to worship him on Halloween or worship the holiday he has 95,000 people that are his followers that do so The other 5,000 that are celebrating Halloween are made up of individuals that are celebrating it not to worship him but to have fun on the day I don't think he sees the difference you still have 100,000 people celebrating that day whether the intentions are good or bad The goal has still been achieved. And that's how many can be manipulated hey if you think it's good it's good not so sure that's how it works. Anyways again love your comment and be blessed stay blessed and God bless
Actually, Halloween has its roots in the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, a pagan religious celebration to welcome the end of summer harvest. It was actually the Catholics who adopted the traditions of that festival for their "Days of the Dead"; thereby causing many to consider Halloween, as we know it, a Catholic holy day. I think the dangerous conflation of these two things has caused many believers to think it is ok to participate in the darkness of this pagan practice.
I disagree, exsatanists testimonies can be informative and interesting but ultimately the word has to have the final say. The Bible says do all things for the glory of God, I just cannot see how Halloween festivities and dress ups glorifies God.
I usually find most of your content educational and truthful, but I have to disagree on this one. First off, I would do some research on Christmas, which is of pagan origin. Saternalia was a pagan holiday celebrated around the 25th of december in Rome. Just because it is rebranded with a different name doesn't make it not Pagan. I am just saying. Even if you don't look at the whole santa aspect. Nobody 100% knows Jesus's birthday. We know though that at the time of his birth the shepherds were out watching the sheep in the fields. That eliminates his birth being in the winter, as the sheep would not be out in fields at that time of year. Halloween is an even more blatant satanic holiday. Let's face it; you can justify to celebrate it all day, but it is about dressing up in most of the times creepy and gorey costumes. Easter also has it's pagan origins and so on, and so forth. I can say for certain if God wanted us to celebrate halloween, easter, and Christmas then it would be in the bible. God does say not to celebrate the traditions of man. There are feast days in the bible that we Don't celebrate (including myself) that God mentions to keep those feast days. However, we take the time to celebrate holidays made up by man that are NOT in the bible. They were pagan are pagan and always will be pagan. Sorry to burst that bubble, but the truth can be devastating. We know many of the things that are pushed in the world are part of these satanic agendas. If those holidays were truly for God, then they would of been gone long ago. This is not a message from me but the spirit of God gave me the wisdom to write this message to you all please do more research on these holidays God bless!
@@dudfetbird 8] For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do. [9] And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition. Mark 7:8-9
As a Christian when I celebrate Christmas, it’s because I’m celebrating his birth. Not the gifts, the tree, etc. the sole purpose of Christmas is to celebrate Christ being born. we don’t know when his exact birthdate but we celebrate his coming.
We celebrate Christmas to represent a time where we can celebrate Jesus birth, we know he wasn’t born in the winter but we use December to represent it
The question isn't about who owns the day or what our intentions are.We are called to honour Him in our spending (tithes, giving, good stewardship), we are called to honour him with our bodies (being chaste, the covenant of marriage, faithfulness, preserving the temple of the Holy Spirit). We honour Him with our words and actions. The question I would ask as a fellow Christian, would be "how does halloween honour God?"
Explanation: Catholics created this holiday to remember dead loved ones, but during Samhain people would offer food to the spirits to ward OFF evil. which is why children go Trick-or-treating to door to door for candy.
Ephesians 5:11 - And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them. Ephesians 4:27 - Neither give place to the devil. 1 Corinthians 10:21 - Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils. 1 Peter 5:8 - Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: Leviticus 19:31 - Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God
The infinite, glorious, innocent wonder of the wonderful Word of God ! That's why these great warnings of the Word of God had to be written to call people unto God's life-giving sweetness. Thank you ! Isaiah 47, Revelation 22:15 Romans 1:1---look at verse 32 Also ! Jesus cast out the unclean spirits WITH HIS WORD!
We stay home and have family time. No one feels slighted. I appreciate John Ramirez's take on it all. I'd rather pray against it than participate. I don't want to look like the world.
@AMONGTHESUSSYBAKASthis holiday transpired passed catholocism this holiday was one of the pagan holidays people would use as a day to celebrate and worship the dead by dressing up like them or leaving out candy or something sweet so that the dead would be satisfied
@AMONGTHESUSSYBAKASand just as you say why am I blamed for someone else’s sins is like saying why is curse upon me for what Adam and Eve did. Sin is not just an act of doing wrong it empowers something in the atmosphere around us just as our good deeds bring light sin brings darkness and death so while being in a scenery where the purpose of the holiday is to promote sin and not for the simple fact of getting candy is saying u what the cake without the diabetes Satan doesn’t care about our intentions at all. I’m not saying as a Christian your gonna get possessed because that can’t happen you can have a stronghold on your life but u can’t be possessed by a demon but what I am saying your opening up a lot of portals and giving the devil a lot of legal right by putting yourself out there like that. I’m saying as a brother in Christ I wouldn’t celebrate Halloween with any intentions I would rather stay home or go out and preach the gospel like what we are called to do not indulge in it and if I want candy I’ll just get some on my own not dress up and get some.
@AMONGTHESUSSYBAKASHalloween is not a catholic holiday. It was original a celebration day of the heathens called Samhain (pronounced sow-in) and came from europe. They would celebrate the dead and used it as a gate to communicate with spirits. Instead of candy cildren would get fruits like oranges but then later they would get cookies that witches put spells on for "good luck". The people dress up to blend in with the spirits they called that night or to posess their powers. Later when catholics came to the lands and took over they made a deal with the heathens which was to keep their holiday but call it All Hallows Eve and to convert to the catholic church. It is a santanic ritual to call what shouldn't come. Your statement: why am i blamed for the sin of others can be easily explained. We are related to Adam and Eve and because of their sining all of us after are all basically born with sin because god is a fair god. Being born without sin means the once that give birth to you should have never sinned. Saying well i dont celeberate the devil but participate in their rituals is self explaining. Your thoughts and intentions on that day don't matter, you actively participate in the pagan ritual no matter how you phrase it. And it can open a door because that is why it is celebrated in the first place.
Sometimes the middle ground is not the answer. I'm sorry but No, stay away. You got people that even has left the occult itself and not these people that work for themselves but have missions of darkness warn of Halloween. I don't understand why any Christian would want to be passive about that. If people who used to be enemies of God are telling you don't, You probably should not and even then, the word is clear. The enemy wants you with your guard down, even in your innocence of it all as a child.
I see a lot of rebuke in the comment section, I'm so happy to see my brothers and sisters in Christ standing by the truth. Love and peace and blessings to you all in Jesus name
amen brothers and sisters stay strong continue to preach the word and the gospel in season and out of season. make foolproof thy ministry ! always pray for more discernment in these last days. Jesus our precious Lord will be here shortly to rescue us out of this pit.
THANK YOU this is so common-sense. I’ve been looking for a take like this. We can be so black/white about things sometimes. I love the desire to honor God in everything, but it can easily lead us to overthinking things and acting out of fear! As someone who loves art/creativity, I’ve always loved Halloween as a chance to have fun with our imagination and crafting things - enjoying a childlike kind of play
Halloween is another word for all hallow’s eve. It is the evening before all hallow’s day, also knows as all saints day. Yes, the holiday has was originally from celtic and gaelic culture, but they were christianized by the early church and the holiday was adapted. As far as i know all saints day (and eve) just remembers the christian martyrs. It doesn’t glorify the devil or death and destruction. You don’t have to participate if you don’t want to, but let’s not judge our christian brothers and sisters too harshly for wanting to catch up with friends in a fun way. I feel some people are looking too deep into this.
I see some comments saying " not all people should become teachers..." in all fairness, just because someone who walks with the Lord and made a mistake in the lesson doesnt automatically make that person a false teacher. Of course we must discern from whom we listen to. But as always, when we have to correct someone. we do it with love not to quickly jump to it and say such matter. We must quick to listen and slow in speech.
some people are just plants (parable of the wheat and the tares) to deceive chrisitans , because the devil is mad that we no longer serve him. Jesus said, let them grow together and at the end of the age the angels will gather the wheat into HIS barn and the chaff into the fire.
@@truthbtold6118 yes, even there are people who dresses up as wolves in sheeps clothing and even the devil can appear as an angel of light. There is a difference who makes a mistake and some are ignorant that needs more wisdom and guidance from the wonderful precious Holy Spirit and the ones who deliberately lie by twisting God's word. Those who acknowledge Jesus as God, that he scarfaced himself and placed our sins on him. So we can be made right with the Father and have eternal life but must wait patiently until that day when there will be no sin, death, where we can dwell with him in the new heaven and new earth. We all not perfect, we are not rightous not even one of us. Even so, we must repent from our sins and run to Jesus. The Lord knows who truly belongs to him.
@@truthbtold6118 I know the devil hates it when someone doesn't serve him anymore. That's when he would do whatever he can to cause division, fear, ways to turn you away from the Almighty God, the Kings of kings and Lord of lords, the prince of peace. The enemy knows his days are numbered and will be cast into the lake of fire for all eternity. He is fighting a losing war.....
Many people have brought up very good points and verses that speak to the reasons why those who believe in God should refrain from celebrating Halloween. The Bible will not explicitly tell you what to do in this case, so it really depends on where you are at in your faith and walk with the Lord. If you do not have that conviction to be set apart and sanctified as the Bible instructs us to be then you will not understand why SOME believers refrain from halloween. It does not mean that they are “better” or “more holy” they just have understood that the Lord wants his bride to be clean. (Yes it is that deep “A little yeast works through all the dough” Gal 5:9)And no this does not mean that they are perfect because just as Paul said “not that I have already obtained all this …” Phil3:12. As believers in Christ we should all be striving to live a life of purity and sanctification and that means letting go of the things of this world. And for those who say “oh well it’s for the kids. How can we keep them from having fun?” I think parents should instruct their children that as believers we don’t roll with the world, no matter how “fun” it may be their salvation is worth more than a bucket of candy. They should be learning to fear the Lord from a young age so that when they grow older they will not depart from the truth. I didn’t grow up celebrating Halloween or Christmas and am thankful for that. You need to “turn-off” those desires to live a life in-tuned with the world so that you are tuned-in with God’s presence. Those that have no fear of the Lord may call me “boring” for not ever dressing up or opening presents on dec 25 but I there is no desire in me to participate and hope that my brothers and sisters in Christ can also strive to live a life that is sanctified. No hate to the creator of the short but I had to comment on how wrong it is.
The difference is the maturity level of the Christian. An immature Christian would think the act of dressing up as superman is a form of devil worship just because some people worship the devil on a particular day. The mature Christian knows that it isn't what goes into the mouth, what what come out of the mouth.... Dressing up as superman is not a sin and it is not devil worship. But mature Christians have to take into account the immature Christians thoughts. We are to affend the world, bot the immature Christian.... So if a group of Christians are together and they want to go trick or treating, but an immature Christian is apposed do to their conscience then the Christians should refrain from that activity to honor the Immature Christian.
In short, it is not a sin to dress up as superman..... however it can become a sin if you or any Christian are causing a stumbling block for a newer Christian who's conscience is telling them not to partake in the activity.... Most things are like this.... what food we can or can't eat, tattoos, Christmas etc.
@@mimix5896 again, it depends on if a Christian has a weaker conscience. If so, then they should not partake in dressing up as superman. But a mature Christian, who knows that dressing up as superman is not what defiles him, then he is not in the wrong for having a bonding moment with his kids while they stuff themselves with candy.
let people have fun, its a public holiday at this point not a religious one,even christmas these days isnt purely religious and people everywhere celebrate it
Would Jesus comment on RUclips, a secular sinful app that leads more people away from Christ and to the devil than Halloween? Nope... So by your own reasoning, you are sinning more than one who wears a superman costume.
But there is for thanksgiving? A day that encourages gluttony. Or Independence Day? That encourages pride. Or how about Easter, a pagan holiday? The same way you can reason with these. Is the same way you can reason with Halloween
um.. WHAT! Halloween is a Catholic holiday… i don’t know why people think it’s wrong it’s fine if you don’t agree but it doesn’t mean that it’s not true that Halloween comes from Christianity it’s the day when we make fun of demons and then the next day we honor the saints for their martyrdom
@eeslagrakee1514 Holoween doesn't come from Christianity. And demons & fun shouldn't be in the same sentence. We cast demons out. We don't entertain them. And catholicism is a whole beast on it's own. I won't get into that though...
@yungwelfare3394 and guess what you just hit the problem right on the mark the past has nothing to do with it now have you learned nothing from your walk with Jesus just cause we were wicked in the past does that mean we are wicked now? No so if Easter used to be Godly but is wicked now then yeah you're serving the devil doesn't matter what it used to be same for Halloween if it used to be catholic then it's not now but it also depends on how you celebrate it my mom dressing like a donkey and giving candy and glow sticks to kids is not serving the devil in any way so its fine but if you're dressing your kids and taking them to strangers houses you're opening doors for demons and witchcraft if you go to church and get a bunch of candy with your kids than that's okay cause it's not serving the devil it's not about the past it's about what it is right now
Brother, i loved most if not all your content and we can agree on most of the things you teach but there is something in Halloween that calls out in my spirit that says we should not partake in it. Before it was even a catholic holiday was it not pagan before? Didnt it hace celtic roots binding to it and its history? That night may have been for saints but it isnt now and what counts is not what it was back then but it is now. Halloween will never be day in which i see it give glory onto God or praise Jesus for His sacrifice. Love ya Brother for your work though and all your doing and may Jesus be with you in all the things you do. 🙏
Facts Like the only way I've ever celebrated Halloween is I just like the spookiness of it, and I celebrate more fall than I do Halloween. I just buy a bunch of junk from Walmart, bake brownies, and watch horror movies all day. But you won't catch me actually celebrating Halloween, because I grew not only believing that it's worshiping Satan, but I was taught it was actually his birthday. Plus as you said it was originally a pagan holiday before the Satanists took it. Pagans are witches or close to it and in the Bible is specifically states that witchcraft is of the devil. Whether it's used for that purpose or not doesn't matter. All that matters is that it is still sacrilegious to practice witchcraft as a Christian. Halloween is the same concept, whether it's your purpose to worship or celebrate Satan when you celebrate Halloween or not doesn't matter. The fact is it is still sacrilegious to celebrate it if you believe in and worship God.
halloween coming from samhain is a complete myth. all saints day was originally celebrated in april. it being changed to november first has no correlation to the pagan practice of samhain.
Yes, you’re absolutely right, dressing up and getting candy is one thing, but walking into a home that’s completely decorated in demonic things is Satan’s way of luring kids.
FACTS because my teacher got in this argument with me that Halloween is so bad and that it’s so sinful, like girl just cause I’m dressing up as a cartoon character doesn’t mean that I am some Satan that supporting the devil.
I agree with you. When I dress up for Halloween it's not for worshiping demons or anything. My point of dressing up is to get candy. Even if you don't dress up I've seen people give out candy.
No, thank you!! I'm not condemning anyone. However, my children will not even dress up as an angel on Halloween. It gets no acknowledgment from me and my house.
@@ArashiNoSeitoI don’t celebrate Easter, Easter is for bunnies and a pagen goddess. I celebrate Resurrection Day. And boy let me tell you the crap I get for doing so and not calling it easter. My Jesus comes first
@@shell7142 oh great... youre one of those people who just believes every myth you read... anyway, no, ishtar has no relation to easter. this was a myth invented (if i recall it was by an atheist in the early 20th century) and debunked countless times, even by IP. ishtar has no relation to easter. we have early church records of the day Christ was crucified. we have ash wednesday, good friday, and easter sunday. please do your research next time
@@ArashiNoSeitoIt's really not. At best, it's a pagan holiday stolen by Christians during the time of forced conversions and the eradication of paganism. Halloween is actually Samhain, it has nothing to do with Christianity.
If you want to reform Halloween as a Christian holiday and celebrate it in a completely different way, then by all means- get together to break bread with other believers, invite others and spread the word of God. But should we really open ourselves up to temptation by celebrating the way that the people who worship themselves, the world, or satan do? What's the point in dressing up to receive free candy and eat it all in a gluttonous fashion? To have fun? We were not created to have fun. Bad things happen on Halloween and that's the truth. Parties where people have fun by submitting to vices or lust; kidnappings, rapings, murders. The holiday itself may seem harmless in many ways, but isn't it the enemy's goal to twist evil and make it seem harmless? He has infiltrated our schools, our churches and our holidays luring many people astray. This also includes Christmas. It was originally designated to worship God and the birth of His son. Yet, now it's been twisted into a materialistic celebration where kids are encouraged to believe in a fat man that gives them anything they desire, who travels the world on a magic sled pulled by flying reindeer. There is nothing harmless about it, it is simply a disguise. If you see the patterns, this is an attack that enemy has used for generations- targetting children who are the most vulnerable and susceptible of us all. We should seperate ourselves from the world and when we are confused on what path to follow, ask the Holy Spirit to guide you. Ultimately, if Jesus wouldn't do it, don't do it either. Our goal is to be more like Him and less like us.
@@S91761 mocking is a form of humiliation which is a very harsh way of making one humble with satan’s fall being caused by pride to humble him is to hurt him and if halloween is indeed a day when spirits are more active as so many people in this comment section are say (which I do not disagree with) then we did this as a defence against the evil spirits which are active but also to celebrate halloween as a sole holiday would be no good as halloween is part of a trio of holidays which emphasizes the connection between this world and the spiritual places (hell, purgatory and heaven) and if you don’t believe those places can connect with the world then you’d better reconsider your faith as spiritual warfare is a thing and it takes place here.
@@randomcanadaguy32 And you think dressing like the devil to "mock" them really does something, huh? Again, is that biblical? The answer is no. The only thing kids care about halloween is to get candy and have fun. If you believe this is a contribution to spiritual warfare or helping God or whatever, you need to reconsider reading the bible again. I'm pretty sure that people who celebrate "dias de los muertos" have similar explanations.
@@S91761 to be fair not many celebrate halloween that way anymore but also not many celebrate it as a demonic ceremony either. Does everything need to be from the bible, yes it is the best thing for discovering more about God but if it is our only source of Gods knowledge then christianity is a dead religion that died when we finished making the bible but it is not dead to me as many have put their whole lives into discerning things like this and others, yes the bible has all the necessary revelations but that does not mean it has all revelation until the end of time in it
I would recommend no one to follow those beliefs. You can worship the devil and not realise it. It doesn't mean you're not worshipping him. It is written: My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6) Stay smart and safe in Jesus name 🙏
For the people talking about how Halloween is bad cause it’s got pagan roots, Christmas also has pagan roots. It was originally a two week long celebration with drinking, orgies, and large bonfires that were to celebrate the winter solstice as well as Sun gods
Its not worshipping the devil but its following the traditions of the world. God called us to be set apart So why are we dressing up on that day specifically, when we have all other days to do it ? Regardless, even if you're not worshipping Satan, you're following the worlds religion.
God has inspired me to share this Wonderful Good News that deserves to be heard by everyone. Jesus is the only way to Salvation John 14:6 - “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father except through me.” And No Matter what you are going through GOD Loves You. 1 John 4:9-10. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
It doesn’t though…it’s dressing up as something fun and getting free candy! Dressing up as a ghost doesn’t mean you worship anything bad, it’s just a way to get free food.
@@ethandoodlez9987 Would he though? Jesus did more healing than preaching, so he was pretty big on health. Seems rather un-Jesus like to give children loads of sugar.
Man, this doesn't mean he is "possessed" by demons, this is his beliefs, you don't have to trust the logic, it's your way to find your path with God, everyone's path is different, focus on yourself.
@@darknitethor I didn’t say *he* was possessed. But merely bringing awareness that we could unknowingly be possessing or worshipping something that isn’t aligned with our values.
All throughout the Old Testament Yah appointed the feast days. the Holy-days. Yah wants us to celebrate Him, not other gods. "These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, then Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. These were Aaron’s sons, the anointed priests, who were ordained to serve as priests. Nadab and Abihu, however, died in the presence of the LORD when they offered unauthorized fire before the LORD in the Wilderness of Sinai." Same Yahweh. Be careful of what you teach for you will be judged more harshly.
@@yg0790 Christmas is on the winter solstice because that is when Horus, the pagan sun god was said to be born. Easter is about Ishtar, the goddess of fertility. I didn't want to believe it at first too but Yah never told us to worship on these days. Better to celebrate Passover or other Biblical feasts.
You shall have no other gods before me. Celebrating a holiday of the world vs one of Adonai's Holy Days. You have a choice. To have one foot in heaven and the world, to be planted in the world, or to be rooted in Jesus. It only takes a little yeast to leaven the loaf. If you choose to compromise in allowing 1 pagan holiday in your life where else will you compromise.
@@TheGamerCoronix exactly.... What would you say to the single father who dresses up with his daughter to go door to door for candy and fun? This father is able to spend quality time with his daughter and show that he loves her while they both get sick with candy.... a memory they will have for a lifetime. How is that sin? A father taking time out of his day to bond with his daughter..... is that man a sinner for that action? It seems as if this is a double standard. You claim that you can use a secular sinful app as a tool for God's kingdom, but a man isn't able to use a costume for God's kingdom? That is pretty hypocritical of you.
@@DrDoerk Choosing to dress up and go door to door is not inherently sinful. Choosing to celebrate a holiday of the world vs a Holy Day of Adonai is a choice we make. A choice to step into the world and allow the flesh to get what it wants. There is nothing wrong with a father spending time with his daughter, creating core memories. However, as Proverbs 22:6 states: Train up a child in the way he or she should go, when he or she is old he or she will not turn from it. It is a choice. To celebrate a day that the world has created to pull you away from God. To allow more compromise on the Word. As Romans 12:2 states: 2 Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the will of God-what is good and acceptable and perfect. You can create memories without being of the world. Also since when has youtube been a secular sinful app. It is a tool. Unless you are saying it breaks the second commandment of Exodus 20:4 - Do not make for yourself a graven image[a], or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above or on the earth below or in the water under the earth. Then I will agree. But people can hear the word of God of this app as well as lies. But in the end we are all to seek the truth and determine whether it is actually the truth.
Although I do appreciate your concern and I am trying to reduce my time on this app. Some days it's easier and some days its harder. The demon of distraction that tries to take my attention does fill this app. And to that I will also agree.
I say leave it up to your personal convictions. We have the holt spirit to guide us. What one person deems a no no, doesn’t mean someone else has to feel that way. My family doesn’t celebrate it and that’s because as a family (myself, husband and kids) decided that we didn’t want to celebrate Halloween.
As a Christian, I 100% agree with this. Just because I celebrate Halloween by dressing in a funny costume and getting candy doesn’t mean I’m worshiping Satan.
But is God presence found in this? Do we honor ourselves or him on this day? When Halloween comes around, what do you see, people gathering to give glory to God or to fantasy?
@@shaundrecacoleman3910the way I see it, unless you're Amish, you're a hypocrite. If you're so concerned with separating yourself from "the world," then go and actually do it. Get rid of all your technology, go take medication that takes away your natural sexual urges, etc. All I'm seeing is a bunch of self righteous cherrypickers
@@shaundrecacoleman3910When you see everyone in america open presents does that necessarily mean they are praising God? No. Atheist are not praising God by giving eachother gifts. Just because Christmas is the day of Jesus birth doesn’t mean that anything that happens on that day automatically becomes a praise to God. People are not automatically giving glory to fantasy by dressing up as spider-man and getting kit kats from their neighbor.
@@shaundrecacoleman3910And also Gods presence is always with us as Christians. Why do you assume that it isn’t if our kids want to dress up as their favorite superhero.
I can 100% still honor God on Halloween, I read my Bible while trick or treating sometimes, it's not a sin to go up to a house and get candy I'm not shouting satanic rituals while doing it. My kids will be allowed to dress up for Halloween if they want to.
Spencer I say this with love and I love you as a brother in christ. Im not here to condemn you But a correction. We can't have something specifically that mirrors of death, fear, and the like. This was something where people was dressing up, having masks and all to confuse the evil spirits if I'm not mistaken. We are to mirror what is pure, Holy peace, love and I can go on. We can't eat at the Lord's table while getting on the side from the devil. Again my brother in christ I love you and you make pretty awsome content. But I disagree with this.
No it wasn’t Brother respectfully Halloween is not pagan It comes from All Hallows Eve which is the Eve of all saints Day a Christian Holiday to honor the Saints and Martyrs Not the pagan holiday Samhain The only reason we confuse the two Is because Satanists from the modern time claim it’s stolen from them You wouldn’t trust a satanist would you? Over time All Hallows Eve became associated with the dead and Samhain It wasn’t until European traditions with All hallows eve blended in America is were we have the modern Holiday of Halloween Like the tradition of trick or treating or dressing up So Halloween is an entirely Christian Holiday though it has evolved to overtime into Halloween today It is not a celebration of darkness It was originally a holy holiday that is now confused with Satan and paganism
Agreed,it’s not. They were “ christianized” by the pope back in that time, he said they were allowed to keep their holidays as long as they did it for God…. Doesn’t make sense but that was them giving in and not cutting ties. The Bible says do not do as the pagens do
careful to call someone your brother or sister, bible says test the spirits whether they are of God because many false prophets have gone out into the world. you shall know them by their fruits . Jesus said, "every tree that bringeth forth not good fruit is hewn(cut) down and thrown into the fire".-kjv
Correct me if I'm wrong but Im pretty sure the creator of halloween said something along the lines of "I'm happy that people spend 1 of the days of the year worshipping satan". So if you don't want a relationship with God, then go ahead and worship satan. Even though God loves you and paid the price for ALL your sins, yes all sins, past, present and future sins all paid for. Let's just worship satan right?!?! Even though we have a loving, merciful, gracious God. Let's just worship satan???? I don't think so. "oh I'm only dressing up at eating candy....". Great way at finding a crooked way to support satan
It was the creator of satanism who said that actually. Anton Lavey. But yes you’re right! “I am glad that Christian parents let their children worship the devil at least one night out of the year. Welcome to Halloween”
This is a bad take. Halloween has no redeemable qualities, to be set apart means not desiring to do what the world does. Trying to reclaim things that are not meant for believers anyway is a waste of time and causes confusion.
@ItsDark : I agree w/@maddmax4148. Dude is WAAAY off. The Catholic church DID INDEED "sanction" 'All Hollow's Eve' (just like they did 'Christmas' - Christ's Mass) but it was a way of melding pagan rituals w/Christianity. It was thought to be due to aiding in "converting" pagans to Christianity. Either way you look at it, BOTH Halloween and Christmas (not to mention Easter and the like) at its foundation are purely pagan and Christians ought not participate.
@@b1azing905people who’ve actually did pagan/wiccan/satanist worship like I have will tell any Christian it’s a bad idea its called Samhain when i was living in sin id do rituals Specifically on that day as many many other worshippers did people don’t even realize that these worshippers will go out and cast spells on Regions the whole town while kids put on a fake identity to go trick or treating unless Christians going out blessing each house not a wise idea to participate in it
Hey Spencer, with all due respect, you need to really educate yourself regarding where the holidays really originated from. In true christianity, according to the bible, we shouldnt be partaking in ANYTHING that the world celebrates. James 4:4 states 4.Adulteresses, know ye not that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore is minded to be [the] friend of the world is constituted enemy of God. You're flip flopping to your convenience because in your belief, it doesn't matter who initiated said holidays, all that matters is how you celebrate it and that is where you're wrong. I ask you this, if someone invited you to their house to enjoy a home cooked meal, and when they went to serve you the food they presented it to you in the dogs bowl, would you eat it? Even if the host told you that the bowl was sterilized and thoroughly cleaned you still wouldnt eat it because the only thing you see is the dogs bowl and you would feel disrespected. How do you think God feels when we take a holiday which is designated for worship to the enemy, and we " christianize it" ? Brother youre a very smart man but you need to ask God for discernment regarding these topics because without knowing it, you could be leading people to indulge in idolatrous practices and that is an anomination to God. 2 Corinthians 6:15 states 15. And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel? I pray that you find the truth about it all and that God grant you the wisdom to understand what he desires from his people. God bless!
Okay, but do you know you are fully okay with God as well? because, opinions matter too, and beliefs matter as well. And, he is being logical. Most of these comments are religion, not a relationship with God, you can't just say he "needs to educate himself", I am not a Christian, I have a relationship with God, It's how you view the holiday, and do it. And did you know that Christmas isn't even God's Birthday?, Did you know people still do Christmas? even though it isn't his Birthday?, But I won't stop celebrating Christmas because it's a good "holiday" to hangout with your family. Just stop being so quick to judge people, when you don't even know if yourself is 100% with God, It's a relationship, NOT a religion. Believe what ya want to believe, just remember that you have to allow people to find their own way with God, because it truly is not your problem to deal with it, it's God's job to do that.
@ItsDark. I disagree. You can't be ok with God and participate in worldly activities. I dontvsaybit, the Bible does. See, there is no gray arrlea with God. It is either black or white, good or evil, God or Satan. The problem nowadays is that no one wants to accept God's terms according to what is written in the Scriptures. We want to make our own terms and rules and we expect Him to accept it because we say we do it for Him. It doesn't work that way. The Almighty already established through His Word what he expects from us; obedience. A clear example of this is the life of King Saul. Yahuwah gave him specific instructions and ordered him to destroy ALL of the Amalekites, from the children down to the animals, everyone was to be utterly destroyed. Buy he thought that it was in his best interest to disobey The Almighty's order and "out of the kindness of his heart" bring back cattle and sheep to, according to him,offer in sacrifice to Yahuwah. The one thing we absolutely can not do is take something that is destined for Satan's worship and bring it to God as an offering. He doesn't share His glory with no one! Isaiah 42:8 states 8.I am the Lord: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images. So we need to stop taking things from the world and trying to " christianize it" , thinking that we are pleasing Yahuwah when in actuality we're offending Him.
@ItsDark. oh and by the way, God really doesn't care about what your opinion is, all He wants is our obedience to His Word, obedience instead of sacrifice. This is not a matter of what my opinion is or what anybody thinks, it's according to what the Scriptures say. Am I perfect, ABSOLUTLEY NOT! But Yahuwah doesn't call us to be perfect but to be obedient to His Word, and in God's eyes, that's all that really matters.
@@josesanchez7970 I by no means celebrate Halloween for God, I celebrate it for family, and memories, I don't worship any demons or the devil, and I don't dress up as a demon either, or do anything of worshiping of the devil, It is only for fun and family. It is of opinions in a way, because it is his job to path our future, he knows every little thing that is going to happen before it does in our life. So yes, it is your way of believing in our creator, he will lead you, just follow him and his commandments. I am by no means a Christian because that is religion, but I have a relationship with our creator, and I don't attend to church, because I believe praying alone is of God, and you may not agree with this, but that doesn't make it bad. By what I was saying, make your own path, don't lose your values and morals, don't follow trends, and stick with what you believe and don't let it be changed by anyone, because that is your path you've chosen, and that's how you are connected with Yahweh. I feel good about Christmas because I am allowed to hangout with my family and make memories, and yes there is many other ways! but Christmas brings my family together to give gifts, be kind and have lots of fun even if it isn't God's birthday. And Halloween on the other hand, I do it with my family to have fun and get candy that's purely it, I don't practice ANY devil worship or demon worship, it is not my goal to bring them in my presence, and I don't I have no intent to do so. Just for fun & memories for me, and I don't feel bad about it either, and I still pray to God, and when I do these, I feel happiness joy & at the same time I am creating memories, and I feel good with God as well. God wants you to enjoy this world, and enjoy life, and I am not saying go party in clubs and do sinning things, I am talking about enjoy your family he has created for you, and enjoy time with them, because once their gone you won't see them again for a long time. So don't just sit alone and do nothing with your family actually get out there and do stuff because memories REALLY matter, and family does too, because if you sit alone, do nothing then you are also doing what he doesn't want you to do, he wants you to enjoy the life he has given to you. But don't let me change the way you see things, remember to stick with what you believe.
@ItsDark. trust me you're not changing the way I think and I thoroughly enjoy the company of my family without indulging into worldly practices. Like the Bible says in James 1:8 8. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways. And like I told you before, our opinions mean nothing to Yahuwah because our service to Him is not based on what I think it should be , it's based on what His word says we should do. You really need to understand something; when you participate in anything that the world promotes, in this case holidays, you're saying to the Almighty that you don't care how He feels, you care more about how tou feel. Isn't that being selfish? God provides you with everything you have, more importantly with health and life. And the way you say " Thank you" is by rejecting what His Word commands us to do and taking solace in doing what your flesh wants you to do. The Bible states in John 6:63 63.It is the Spirit which quickens, the flesh profits nothing: the words which I have spoken unto you are spirit and are life. 1 John 2:15-17 Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world-the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life-is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.. Colossians 3:2 Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth. Romans 12:2 Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. These are some Bible verses that indicate to us how we should live. This is not based on opinion, this is based on undeniable facts. But it seems to me that, and I say this respectfully, you need a true encounter with Yahshua. I say this because when you have Yahshua in your life, none of these worldly pleasures that you so fondly like to celebrate will be worth your time. Yahshua completes you in such a way that those things become irrelevant. I pray that the Almighty reveals himself to you and reveals why these holidays should never be celebrated. God bless🙏🏾
I’m Christian but still go out on Halloween. Not saying anything about “Oh it’s not this” or “It’s not that”. It’s just fun to hang out with friends and get candy. It doesn’t have to be assault with Satan. But it’s also not really associated with God.
Same I’m just a normal 8th grader and love doing Halloween with friends and getting candy but this year each time I knock on a persons door I’m gonna say “Jesus loves you” each time
I have heard from numerous ex Satanist, witches, and those on the occult that as Christians, we should not be celebrating this day, even if we do it, not dressed in scary costumes. Light has no place with darkness, and Halloween is a dark day. Just research what Satanist, witches, etc, do on this day. We are to be a light to the world, and celebrating this day is not doing that. Every person can make their own choice, but I do not think this honors Christ at all. Sorry, I disagree with this one but love your other content. God bless
I am going to spread some historical facts without bias. Use this info however you want, and to make up your own mind. Key points about the history of Halloween, tracing its roots and evolution: 1. **Celtic Festival of Samhain:** - Halloween's origins can be traced back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, celebrated around November 1st. - Samhain marked the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter. It was believed that during this time, the boundary between the living and the dead became blurred. 2. **Cultural Influence of the Celts:** - The Celts, who inhabited regions of modern-day Ireland, the United Kingdom, and northern France, celebrated Samhain with bonfires and believed that spirits could roam freely. 3. **Roman Influence:** - With the expansion of the Roman Empire, Celtic traditions merged with Roman festivals, including Feralia (a day in late October to honor the dead) and Pomona (a festival associated with fruits and trees). 4. **Christianization and All Saints' Day:** - As Christianity spread, the Church sought to replace pagan festivals with Christian ones. In the 8th century, Pope Gregory III designated November 1st as All Saints' Day to honor saints and martyrs. 5. **All Hallows' Eve:** - The evening before All Saints' Day became known as All Hallows' Eve or Halloween. The name evolved over time, and Halloween retained some of the traditions from Samhain. 6. **Medieval and Early Modern Practices:** - In medieval Europe, Halloween traditions included "souling" (begging for soul cakes) and costumes to ward off spirits. It also involved rituals predicting marriage and fortune-telling. 7. **Irish and Scottish Immigration to the U.S.:** - The migration of Irish and Scottish immigrants to the United States in the 19th century brought Halloween customs to North America. 8. **Commercialization and American Traditions:** - In the early 20th century, Halloween became more commercialized in the United States. Trick-or-treating gained popularity, and costumes became a central element. 9. **Globalization of Halloween:** - Halloween spread globally through cultural exchange and media influence. Different regions adopted and adapted traditions, blending local customs with the commercial aspects of Halloween. 10. **Modern Celebrations:** - Today, Halloween is celebrated in various ways around the world. It has become a secular holiday with activities like trick-or-treating, costume parties, haunted houses, and the display of jack-o'-lanterns. Halloween has transformed from an ancient Celtic festival to a modern, widely celebrated holiday with a mix of cultural influences. Its roots in honoring the dead and the changing of seasons are still evident in many of its traditions.
1 Corinthians 10:20-22 [20]Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons. [21]You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the Lord’s table and of the table of demons. [22]Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He? All to the Glory of God." Leviticus 19:31: “Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God.” (KJV) Leviticus 20:6: “And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.” (KJV) Galatians 5:19-20: “Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” (KJV) Ephesians 5:11: “And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.” (KJV)
you are opening your god given "I AM" your awareness or consciousness when you identify with something or someone... and when it is a ritual where there´s a spirit behind you are on the playground of that spirit@@silentapple5923
no, i dont believe there is a zebraspirit behind dressing up as that :D but there is alot of demonic power behind halloween... but always check your heart with attaching it to gods heart and listen how the holy spirit is guiding you... its all about realtionship with god, not knowing what it right or wrong @@vampheriia
In the 8th century AD, Pope Gregory III designated November 1 as All Saints' Day, a day to honor all Christian saints and martyrs. "The day before All Saints' Day, October 31, became known as All Hallows' Eve, and eventually shortened to Halloween. Halloween was originally a Catholic holiday, and it was celebrated by Catholics around the world." Just copypaste that to all the salty RUclips Christians who say "Halloween is demonic" lol
I've always thought of halloween as a day where kids dress up as super heros or princesses and ask for candy. That's it. My mom bought some candy for the trick or treaters but she prayed over the candy and blessed it, hoping that anyone who takes from the bowl would have a revelation from God in that household.
But super hero are not of God, it's fantasy, God is the only hero that children should know, not this make believe stuff, none of the costumes honor God at all, it's clear as crystal.
Halloween is a Gaelic (Irish) tradition, it wasn’t started as a catholic holiday, yes gaelics eventually were Catholic but it’s a literal pagan holiday idk what your talking about
I'm not going to compare. But if something turns evil, though once was okay, I'm not going to participate. Like so much on TV now. We didnt have so many worldly programs, and many shows had morals to the story. Now, television is in the gutter. Don't watch it much
It’s not what they do It’s where the roots come from Halloween comes from dark roots therefore I do not want to participate If some other people claimed the 25th of December then I would still celebrate it because of the origin, not because of a claiming
That's fair, and Christ's birth took place around the Feast of Tabernacles in the Bible, which is around September 23rd. However, the birth of Baal, a very nasty Pagan god, was said to be December 25th. I still do Christmas of course, because why wouldn't you join together to celebrate the birth of Christ? But with every holiday, especially Christian ones, I think it's important to discern what parts are actually Christian and what parts are from foreign influence.
So why would God be okay with us celebrating the birth of Baal? Just like you said, Christ's birthday was not Dec 25th, and Jesus Himself said to remember Him by what again?? Partaking in communion with fellow brothers and sisters to remember the price He paid for us. That's it! He NEVER said to remember Him by celebrating His birth. Christmas is Paganism and we can't make a Pagan holiday into a Christian one no matter how hard we try. God hates idolatry which is Paganism. True Christians should not be participating in ANY of the devil's holidays.
@@laiyemoboys9255 Christmas is about you trying to turn it into celebrating Jesus when in reality you just need an excuse to celebrate your tradition because it makes you feel good. The holiday is Baal worship, but you try to turn it into a Christian holiday... kind of like what other Christians do with Halloween. They try to make it look "good" when there's nothing good about it, all in the name of making yourself feel good by saying you promote Jesus on the day instead. It just doesn't work that way. God hates Paganism and idolatry. Jesus Christ should be celebrated each and every day in a real Christians life as much as any other day. If it were truly God's day then the rate of suicide on Christmas would not be the most of any day of the year. Stop lying to yourself and surrender your life completely to Jesus Christ and follow Him.
@@laiyemoboys9255 As far as Paganism in these holidays go, remember the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego (in the book of Daniel). Did they decide to just worship God at the same hour everyone else was worshipping the gold statue that Nebuchadnezzar built and say "God we are not worshipping this statue, but instead worshipping you. Nebuchadnezzar will never know, but we are doing it as unto you and not as unto Nebuchadnezzar." NO, they didn't do that! They did not participate in the worship AT ALL! But why not? Couldn't they have just pretended to worship Nebuchadnezzar's statue, but worship God instead? NO!! They stood up for righteousness and said we will not be participating in anything that isn't according to our God. They got thrown in the fire and didn't burn because the Lord was with them! God is still the same God today. We can't participate in holidays that don't belong to Him and then pretend to worship Him while acting like the Pagan (one who serves other gods). Why do you think Christmas is celebrated all over the world? Certainly not because of Jesus Christ. Dec 25 is the birth date of all the gods of this world, but not Jesus'! Jesus was not born an this date, so what does children have to do with it? Same with Halloween. Same with Easter. Jesus says to be separate from this world and you will inherit eternal life. If you're neither hot nor cold then He will spew you of out His mouth. He also says HIS OWN PEOPLE are DETROYED for lack of knowledge. Jesus said, "He who endures to the END shall be saved". Hope you reconsider celebrating Paganism with the Pagans and seek His wisdom, knowledge, and understanding instead. He'll show you the truth if you become a willing vessel to see the truth.
These people who are so pressed really are out here publicly saying they believe Satan and witchcraft are stronger than God and the Holy Spirit... What an awful thing to teach your children.
do you lot think as a christian u can go to a party on halloween or near halloween and not dress up or have any interaction of demonic characters like zombies and witches, it is not classed as a sin
It's really the way you celebrate and the reason why you do it because if you celebrate it for satan, that is not right as a christian because that shows that satan is winning you over
Even if you celebrate it for yourself, it's wrong. We are supposed to die to ourselves and follow Jesus, not our flesh which is seeking the approval of others or a good time. God is our good time. God is our fun. We should be dressing ourselves in spiritual armor and Holy Spirit fire, wearing the fruits of the Spirit. edit: grammar
I don’t understand this issue at all. I want to go out with friends in goofy harmless non demonic costumes and have fun I don’t understand the problem. We face demons in our life every day not just Halloween and everyday God protects me and takes of me from these demons Halloween is no different. If God will protect me from demons any other day He definitely will protect me from demonic attacks on Halloween like any other day. I love God! demons will never win! Amen!
"if you love me keep my commandments"-Jesus. Bible also says,''come out from among them, be ye separate, touch not the unclean thing and i will receive you saith the LORD. do not be fooled the devil wants you to be like the world. but the bible says, "do not be conformed to this world but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptible, and perfect will of God"-Romans 12 2 kjv "God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all". "without holiness no man shall see the Lord". "every tree that beareth not good fruit is hewn down and thrown into the fire".-Jesus stay in your bible and you will stay in God's will and protection....anything less than this you will not make it you are not stronger than the devils and stop exposing yourself to the demonic realm its foolish and you will not win the race this way. run the race that you may obtain your crown. "not everyone that calls me Lord Lord will enter into the kingdom of heaven, but those WHO DO the will of my Father in heaven" matthew chapter 7
@@truthbtold6118 … okay my church does outreaches on Halloween. People stop by our church during trick or treating and we give them hot cider hot chocolate cookie candy, and most important flyers about God and the love that God has for them. How are we supposed to make disciples for God if you aren’t willing to go out into the world even in the dark places and dark days and spread the word. No one is dressing as a demon no one is performing demonic acts at my church we use this holiday to bring people in and show them the love of Christ. Dressing up in a costume that is not demonic and going about your day just dressed up as a super hero or a princess is not hanging and welcoming evil spirits. You welcome evil spirits when you perform witchcraft and a lot of nasty things that do go on during Halloween but if you don’t participate in those things there is no problem. We aren’t going to bring people to Christ if we sit on our hands and do nothing. We need to go out even where it’s dangerous to recruit people and show them the love of God. Halloween or not I’m going out to reach people if I can. Costume or no costume I will do my best to bring people to God and show them the love that He has shown me and the love that He has for them
the "ex satanist proves halloween is satanic" etc stuff has always been so hilarious to me as a SAVED exoccultist, specifically a kabbalistic & solomonic magician. i worked DIRECTLY with demons and FORCED them to do my will... i know what i'm talking about when it comes to these things. and despite years of dedication to this path, the most i heard about halloween being for "us" (at that time) was all this kind of hubbub christians themselves made around october each year. NONE of my books, including famous works on every occultist's shelf (Three Occult Books of Agrippa, Keys of Solomon, Necronomicon, Red Dragon, Goetic Magick, etc etc etc), even MENTION halloween... AT ALL. nevermind worshipping satan on such day. if such a day is so important to those who work with the devil, then why is such an important fact omitted from every text mentioned and others? it's all codswallop IMO if you give it even an ounce of thought especially if you are experienced with these things. plus the fact do you lot understand how painfully difficult it is to summon a demon? even i had trouble doing it on PURPOSE. your kids going out dressed as Spiderman looking at foam gravestone decorations in someone's yard is not going to come close. on a slightly different note i've even seen people get up in arms over things like witches casting spells on the candy. which even if true (and it's not, never heard of it) i think is extremely ridiculous to get scared about, are you all really that weak in your faith? the demons i worked with TREMBLED at the name of Jesus Christ. it's one of the reasons i converted. ALL spells can be broken through His Holy Name. NO witch can have ANY power over you in JESUS' NAME. USE IT! trust me, halloween is truly nothing more than a day to dress up, have fun, and get some free candy. do people sin on halloween? of course. do some satanists think this day is for them for various reasons? probably. but even if that was true, that's no reason to let evil have a whole day out of the year that GOD so graciously created for us. LET LOOSE AND HAVE FUN for a day you squares.
I usually agree with your videos but this one I’ll have to respectfully disagree on. It’s a worldly Holiday that doesn’t edify us or God so what’s the point in celebrating it outside of not wanting to feel left out? Your kids will be just fine. I had Muslim friends I’ve grown up with that never trick or treating during their childhood and they aren’t complaining or miss it.
Does this also apply to birthdays, Easter, or Christmas? One worships yourself, and the other two are pagan holidays that were usually centered around orgies and worshipping sun gods
We should be set apart from the world. Almost every Christian holiday came from a pagan one. Let’s create our own, not keep bowing down to these traditions of the world.
Thank you! I’ve been wondering this whole time that dressing up as woody and trick or treating was bad, I prayed over literally every skull and every wried inflatable thing I saw, I look at Halloween as a fun day. Not as a day for Satan. Try and look at things the way Jesus would have looked at things. Look at Halloween as it was meant to be, not what it has become.
We need to RE-christianize all hallows eve! (Halloween) Btw: we still celebrate All Saints’ Day (November 1. And All Souls’ Day, nov 2) but we just remember them and celebrate masses for them ❤
maybe for some people but i wouldn’t say generally. it’s just a fun holiday for everyone at this point and it’s great to have smth to celebrate with friends of all religions
@@Rey-fj5bk I am from Bolivia, a country in South America that is still under a lot of Catholic influence, we still celebrate All Saints' Eve. My country has done its best to keep the tradition faithfully, it is even mandatory by the government to give a day off to receive the deceased. Here the Catholic history is not as blurred as in other Protestant countries. All Saints' Eve came about when Catholicism arrived in Ireland in the 5th century CE, the Catholic Church found it easier to convert the Celts by incorporating certain pagan celebrations. Including Samhain in a new light, calling it All Saints' Day. The celebration of All Saints is not at all evangelical Christian, not if it is traditionally celebrated. People wait for the saints and the dead with food at the doors (so that they do not do you any evil) it is believed that what separates the world of the dead from the world of the living is removed. Children come and pray to the dead and in return they are given the food that is cooked for the dead.
This is what I sent to Spencer. Get out of the Catholic church. God said THIS in Hosea 4:6, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children. Spencer, you are treading on very thin ice with God when you speak of things that you don't have knowlegde of and lead His children astray. Did you know that Catholicism is Paganism and Paganism is Satanism? It is idolatry at its core and God hates it. What more then if you lead His children to believe idolatry is okay? I HIGHLY suggest you ask God for His wisdom, understanding and knowledge about what the Catholic church really stands for. I grew up Catholic and went to Catholic school. I know all about it and it is EVIL. Please repent and ask God to forgive you for teaching His children that celebrating Paganism is okay. Their blood is on YOUR hands and God does not take that lightly! Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
@@lightandtruth25samhain has no relation to halloween. october 31st was being used in part of the roman world (Christendom), germany if i recall correctly, and eventually that influence spread to the rest of the world and they just decided to make the date of all hallows eve october 31st. the myth of samhain halloween has been debunked by IP multiple times
Halloween is a Christian holiday! Holloween is All Hallows Eve, the eve of the holy feast day. The following day is All Saints day (where we celebrate the church triumphant in heaven) and the day after is All Souls day (we pray for all souls, especially those who we've lost throughout the past year). These three days together make up Hallowtide.
@@eliserenée6248You can have celebrations of God on days that are not in the Bible. Thanksgiving is supposed to be a celebration of God’s provision and what he has blessed you with. It’s not in the Bible but Christians in the US still celebrate it
@@eliserenée6248My original comment was confusing. I’m not saying Halloween is a Christian holiday I’m just saying that we have celebrations that are not in the Bible.
I agree. What's evil about getting free candy? My dad doesn't celebrate Halloween because it's a pagan holiday, but he has told me it's not an evil holiday.
I did a full Live teaching talking through all of the original roots of Halloween and go into each point in more detail. I encourage you to listen to it if you have further questions. 🙏🏼
Do satanist celebrate the resurrection of Christ? No, why? Because the children of darkness don’t celebrate the light. So why would a child of light celebrate a holiday dedicated to the kingdom of darkness. Light and darkness oppose each other. I heard so many ‘roots’ of Halloween and frankly whatever they are, the truth about it is the now. What is the holidays intentions now? What are satanist putting on their altars on that holiday? I encourage you listen to testimonies of ex witches now surrendered to Christ so you can understand what their true intentions are on not just that day but the whole month. Don’t let the enemy fool you, he wants the children of God to be confused, he gets a laugh when a Christian is deceived by the ‘innocence of Halloween’. I pray God reveals the truth to you
No Spencer T.T Halloween and Christmas and Valentine's Day and whatnot are Paganism. Even though the bad intention isn't there, ignorance leads to hell. Even greeting someone happy Halloween or merry Christmas etc is an act of joining their celebration, and if you research the history of it all, you'll know it's paganism. even dec 25 was taken from someone else's birthday T.T
And we are Christians, not Catholics. Catholics consider themselves as Christians, but as a Christian we know they're just getting further and further away from the real God for violating the 2nd commandment. Their churh probably lost their star. They have no wisdom in their teachings, the word is not alive in their church. So there is no reason for us to follow their celebrations. Jesus Christ never had this. In fact, there are only 3 celebrations God told us to follow for all generations and Jesus still did, I know you know those.
The funny thing is that other religions has their festivals and other celebrations, but we Christians only borrow/joins in their celebrations.
No hate Spencer, just wanted to tell you the truth that I've learned cause I agree in a lot of things you've said so far. But not on this. I will pray for your understanding 🙏
God said THIS in Hosea 4:6, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

From the Catholic Church is enough to know it has pagan roots just like the other cultures brother. Got some biblical notes Ephesians 5:8-13 is clear to not have communion with darkness rather expose it and more. Not a dispute it’s clearly logical and a lot of the historical narrative you probably have is bias towards the catholic holiday bc what it is is to pay homage to the dead which they already do lol they pray to the dead. You know this right? Maybe if you divide the word correctly you would also know the Catholic Church has nothing to do with the biblical church and should be viewed as other religions just as Islam and others clearly 1 john explains those who came out of us but are not of us? Please I’m not being legalistic I am just pointing out biblical truths that contextually can be exegeted to fit against these paganism teachings that the church already has lol. It represents nothing good and it is commercialized as innocent and then Christian’s use it as a promotion for kids “trunk or treat”?Its obvious in 2nd Corinthians 11:14 these are these evil ministries that contextually fit the argument and completely demolish the belief that this holiday represents anything Christ like. And there’s more scripture to add but you get the point. But tbh Maybe it’s because you also support heretical pastors such as David diga Hernandez? Maybe your points are already fallible bc your gospel is corrupt by a narrative of false teachers that mentor you? Please divide the word deeper and see that Christmas isn’t like Halloween at all to subject it to a analogy. Halloween was initially created to pay homage to the dead that’s the true root please research the real non biased narrative. God bless and grace and peace from our Lord Jesus Christ.🙏🏽
@@aliveinhim9793so first off, catholicism is not paganism, by definition, and if you are saying catholicism is idolatry, chances are very high you lack the very same knowledge you claim he lacks.
So while I am not Catholic because I do not believe the rituals they perform have the weight that they believe they do, they are not idolators, when they "pray" to the saints and to mother Mary, they mean it in the old definition of "to ask" they ask these figures that they believe to be holier than themselves to talk to God on their behalf, which is no different than the Protestant idea of asking our brothers and sisters in Christ to pray for us.
If you believe Halloween is Idolatry, it is no more idolatry than when children play pretend as characters they like. If a child were to dress up as Moses (who murdered a man if you remember) because they admire him, would you accuse that child of Idolatry? If a child mimics their parents, is that child committing idolatry by worshiping their parents?
Let us remember that we are to imitate Christ and that Christ came not to condemn but to save. Stop talking of others being evil unless you have no evil anywhere in you. Talk instead about what is good, and what is good will definitely come.
Be transformed not conformed to this world!
By the renewal of your mind
Be transformed and be renewed of the mind and have the mind of Christ Jesus.
It’s the eve of All Saints’ Day
@@micoolkidfilms3270after the catholics saw the people celebrating it they wanted it for themselves to make it all saints day
@@Murk_Matter then why do the Orthodox Church also celebrate it? All apostolic churches are true churches.
So proud of my Christian brothers and sisters in these comments. I can see you all correcting with love while using the word.
Here is why i hugely disagree with you brother (if this comes out as a rebuke be humble enough to take it to the Lord and see what He has to tell you) *As an ex witch, many "proffesing christians" were so easily destroyed by witchcraft because you wanted to play at the devils playground simply because you didn’t want to miss the fun.* Halloween was never a christian holiday much less meant to glorify God rather the god of darkness. The main reason why people will dress up was to posess the abilities of the spirit they decided to mimic. Even the pumpkin and the candy has a much more deeper symbolism than you think. So you saying that we could use halloween as to somehow glorify God sounds the same way as someone telling me they could use the oujia board to communicate with the Holy Spirit. *DEUTORONAMY **12:31** You must not worship the Lord your God in their way, because in worshiping their gods, they do all kinds of detestable things the Lord hates. They even burn their sons and daughters in the fire as sacrifices to their gods.*
*christians become the biggest sacrifice in the day of halloween, they become the biggest prizes because the enemy knows the truth. Thats why most disappearances and rapes are done on one of those days in the year*
If a warlock/witch had a hard time destroying a christian, a lot of the times all they need to do is wait until halloween because they themselves break their own hedge. *Ecclesiastes 10:8 (KJV) He that diggeth a pit shall fall into it; and whoso breaketh an hedge, a serpent shall bite him.*
If you want to draw people to the Lord draw them by being the salt of the world, the uniqueness that comes from being born again (set apart) and fruits of the spirit that reflects Jesus, not the devil.
*We shouldn't win souls by mimicking the world*
*i noticed a pattern when it came to the christians that weren't destroyed by witchcraft and it was those who know how to lived a set apart life for God,*
That includes halloween
Witchcraft is a joke to any Christian. If you have the Holy Spirit, all that does nothing.
Sorry u just come off crazy. Just have a moral conscience it’s that simple. Not everyone that celebrates Halloween is a rapist. Some are in fact 9 year olds looking for a fun time and to get candy. Let’s get real
I love this and I agree!
@@gabrieljoselebron6762you sound crazy! Why are you here Satan? Get thee behind us!
Honestly, contrary to most of the comment section, I’ve always felt the same as you on this. Grown up using Halloween as an excuse to dress up in innocent costumes and eat candy, while still being well aware of its dark roots. Halloween was always a way for us to connect with our neighbours and when opportunity presented itself, share the gospel. I was reminded of Genesis 50:20 in a similar conversation a few weeks ago. God can use anything for His glory!
1000% Amen! Jesús is so powerful he uses everything for his good and glory. Best time to share Gospel tracts with everyone plus candy. Hijacked this holiday with good and relax dress up and enjoy it❤🎃🎉😇🍩🍫🍬🌟🙏⭐️👏👍🍪🕊️
God’s word says otherwise it’s not about intentions. It’s about thus saith the Lord. Think about Cain and Abel. One thought to worship God with his own intentions rather than what God actually commanded
Not to mention your subjecting your children to all the evil displays of Halloween, which is desensitizing, and to the smaller children, I can imagine the fear or anxiety and nightmares that come from looking at some of these evil to the core Halloween decorations. The Bible clearly states, I will set no wicked thing before my eyes, because the window to the soul is the eyes
Thessalonians 5:22 = "Abstain from all appearances of evil."
If we are out with crowds of other people who may dress up in evil things such as witches, gouls, and even demons just to get candy, how is that glorifying God? How can others tell your a christian when your other with the crowds of others who dress that way. Halloween was never meant to glorify God .. :
Bro never said to dress up as a demon
But you can dress up as a superhero
@legofan7255 yes but the other people still may dress that wah which is evil appearance that we need to stay away from. Halloween is evil :(
Idk everything about halloween but from what I have heard
Halloween was originally a catholic holiday that honored the saints
It was called all hallowseve
So the devil twisted it
Im not sure if its true
@legofan7255 So the 'een' in Halloween refers to "All Saints/hallows eve". And these Sajnts were NOT biblical saints, they were priests who worshipped the devil. Halloween originated from a Celtic holiday where the people did rituals and saw it as the start of the season of darkness. They even tried to communicate with the dead (which is the main theme of Halloween; death) and so Halloween is very evil because there's the reoccurring theme of death, witches, gouls, and even demons. This does not at all glorify God and it is evil, I hope that helped. I mean of course it's still your choice to celebrate it but know that it's evil and dangerous and can open doors in your life for bad spiritual beings to enter
Here is the story about Halloween:
Halloween originates from the Celts (a folk group) who over 2000 years ago laid the foundation for Halloween. Their religion was called druism. In short, druism is a form of worship of nature and various gods via mystical rituals.
Halloween was the New Year of the Celts, celebrating the sun god Baal. But they also invoked the ruler of the kingdom of the dead, hoping for a reunion with dead family members and friends.
Halloween has its origins from Samhain, which is a pagan religious festival and is about welcoming
the harvest. The night before Samhain, it is believed that the veil between the world of the dead and the world of the living is particularly thin. Here the dead, ghosts and spirits could penetrate our world and come to visit.
Large bonfires were made where they would leave food and drink for the spirits. Sometimes they would even leave portions from their crop to calm the spirits. And some put food out the door to prevent the spirits from entering the home.
Guising / trick or treat:
Guising was part of Samhain. Guising consisted of people dressing up in costumes and going from house to house reciting songs in exchange for food. What we know today as trick or treat!
The costumes were supposed to resemble fairies and spirits. By pretending to be a spirit, one believed that one would be protected from them.
In addition, unpleasant types could come sneaking from the kingdom of death and the
surrounding area, but they tried to protect themselves from them by carving creepy beet lamps and putting on dangerous clothes themselves. Then they could be scared away.
(it's actually just a fruitless act that takes part in darkness)
If one cannot see how demonic this is no matter how much you try to lean unto your own understanding....im sorry i meant "rationalize it", i would highly encourage you to humbly look at the actual story and discern thereafter, and also pray to The Holy Father for discernment! :)

Halloween may be used in a godly manner, but in what way. Does it help unbelievers? Does it strengthen our faith? Is it just a way to have coarse fun and get candy? Would Jesus advocate for this? Does Halloween fall on thr category of following righteousness, seeking purity and the fruits of spirit? Is dressing up as characters or evil theme people a representation of God or kingdom? Should we add in scripture that Christians should celebrate Halloween?
You can participate in halloween without doing worldly things. You don’t have to engage in gluttony by celebrating thanksgiving or greed with christmas.
I agree if u participate in Halloween ur participating in the devils holiday it’s obvious Halloween is filled with all these scary bad stuff you think that’s from God yea no I don’t think so either
Can I not celebrate the 4th of July or Thanksgiving then? Should I not celebrate my Birthday?
@@Dont-At-Me your comparing 4th of July and thanksgiving to Satanic origin and practices. 🤣
@@jaysontatum5797 how so? If unbelievers saw pastors and Christians celebrating it the same way they do. How can we set an example. Wouldn't it be harder to share gospel
Music was created by God for our enjoyment and I believe for his also, music doesn’t belong to the devil however more than ever, we are seeing the devil use it as a tool for darkness to celebrate evil and turn ppl from God.
Just because music is Gods creation doesn’t mean I’m going to listen to all forms of music, because some forms would make me vulnerable to the devil allowing him to impact me in any way he wants.
Because he works through music.
In the same way God has blessed us with 365 days a year. Why would I choose one of those days to celebrate a tradition that I know the devil uses as a tool to desensitise people from the things of God ?
All I know: we are called to be set apart. If Jesus was here right now, do you think you'd take Him trick or treating? Do you think you'd set up decorations with Him? The obvious answer: no, as deep inside we have discerned the spirits behind halloween, and we know the Spirit of The Lord does not lie there.
1. This is lukewarm. Neither hot nor cold. You should have a clear stance. I think the answer to what you should celebrate is clear when you stand on the word of God.
2. Wide is the gate. If you're doing what everyone else is doing, you're probably going down the wrong path. Do not be conformed to this present world (Rom 12:2). There should be no confusion on where you stand: with the world or with God. Don't seek the approval of men. You have to really love your flesh to continue celebrating a holiday that has nothing to do with promoting what is good and holy, that does not glorify God.
Exactly!
Agreed! Samhain was a pagen holiday FIRST and the pope back then wanted to Christianize the pagens, so he allowed them to keep their Samhain Halloween holiday as long as it’s done in the name of…. So I read from history sites.
FACTSS!! I was just about to say! He is leading people to be lukewarm Christian’s. Understanding Gods word truly then you will clearly be able to discern between what you should and shouldn’t do. What about Halloween worships God? And it you not with God you against him, he is VERY lukewarm!
Guess what halloween, christmas, valintines day and even easter is dmeonic we need to move away these pagan holidays and bring out the biblical holidays like passover and the feast of the trumpets
What is your take on 1 Corinthians chapter 8 then?
Halloween was a pagan holiday celebrated by the Celtics in Ireland, before the Catholics had anything to do with it. The truth is simple and if something takes so much back and forth reasoning to convince us that it’s okay in Jesus’ eyes, it’s probably not. But the answer to every question is in The Word, and this is the scripture the Lord spoke to my heart:
“Therefore, come out from among unbelievers, and separate yourselves from them, says the Lord. Don’t touch their filthy things, and I will welcome you.”
2 Corinthians 6:17 NLT
"come out from among them, be ye separate touch not the unclean thing and I will receive you, saith the Lord" -king james version Holy Bible
Easter also has pagen roots, but clearly Easter isn't satanic. I'm catholic and celebrate all Hallows day, so just because pagans have their own version of a holiday doesn't make the Christian one bad.
Christmas is literally a pagan holiday. Christianity is also had you pretend to cannibalize deaf people lol
As an ex New Ager, now a baby baptized Christian, I stopped celebrating and participating in Halloween, which celebrates death and is heavily influenced by magic, several years before I got saved. I don’t wanna be pulled back into what Jesus saved me from.
Amen! Don't listen to this teaching. He is leading people astray with this and God is not happy about it!!
Amen to that. So happy for You!
nope, halloween prays for those lost and prays for the family of those lost and it has been a holiday since the 7th century
@@ArashiNoSeitoHalloween is actually derived from many country pagen origins, Samhain, All Saints’ Day, day of the dead, I believe there’s another one but can’t remember the place. I did a study on it you could google about Samhain and origins of Halloween and do in-depth research.
One of the things is dressing up , I forget which holiday and who celebrated but the reason for it is that the dead spirits wouldn’t come and “ get them”. Trick or treats is derived from Samhain I believe where they use to leave out meals and treats for the spirits so the spirits didn’t play tricks on them. It’s all derived from evil paganism
@@shell7142 okay so you really are one of those people who believes everything they read. anyway, no, october 31st was already a date used for all hallows eve before the church even expanded to the celtic region. all saints day is a catholic holiday, which all hallows EVE is the EVE of all saints day, dia de los muertos is a mexican cultural day and does not contradict any Christian teachings. its cultural, not religious. "i did a study on it you could google.." oh my... you really didnt do any research. you typed in "halloween origins" and found that myth and said "ooh this misinformation would be fun to spread". no, trick or treat is not derived from samhain. trick or treat is from the early days of all hallows eve, when children would dress up as Biblical figures and go to houses and they would pray for your lost ones if you gave them a treat (a candy). not to mention, samhain was never a religious holiday. it was a cultural celtic holiday, never a religious one. try this video and you can learn something: ruclips.net/video/1SkmhjttIds/видео.htmlsi=1kT2JYrQ87Hif4ug
As a Catholic couldn't agree more... Hallow means holy. It's a day to celebrate the saints and then the next day is day of the dead and we celebrate that day for our lost love ones and friends.
FR, people in the comment section obviously has not done their research, claiming it’s a “satanist” holiday and saying it has pagan roots. It has Catholic roots and Pagans are not Satanist. The fact people get mad over a misinterpreted holiday is just sad 💀
Yeah, I'm gonna let jesus invade halloween and reform it
That's crazy that's true everyone should research it
The funny thing is, Halloween is about hiding from demons and ill spirits, handing out free stuff(candy) was supposed to make your soul pure.
exactly, the whole point of the “offerings” was to ward OFF evil, and keep the children and spirits pure.
@@ilikecereal_lol7786 fr, it has NOTHING to do with 'worshipping' Satan or being a Satanist

With all respect I think this perspective on halloween is very dangerous. Because even if you don't dress up as "diabolical" things and just want to pick up candy from your neighborhood you're opening spiritual doors since unconsciously your promoting and being associated with this holiday that definitively doesn't glorify God. You don't need to know the history of halloween to see that what it promotes with it's decorations and everything associated to it, it glorifies death and destruction and as Christians we don't celebrate death, we celebrate life in Jesus Christ. Therefore, we must be careful in the things we promote as Christians bc the spiral world is very real and we can't be irresponsible in how we live our lives and testify to the world what God has done in us.
IN JESUS MIGHTTYY AND PRECIOUSS NAMEE AMEN!!
But christmas has pagan roots lmao
We actually do celebrate death. The death of Christ Jesus on the cross... The trampling of death by death, our death with Christ, good Friday. Which, if one understands Halloween in its historical framework, knows that it soon followed by all saints day. Halloween, if it is celebrated in isolation, is rather morbid. If we celebrated only the death of Christ and not his rising, then we would be believers in a dark mystery, but we celebrate his life in union with his death. In the same way, we ought to celebrate Halloween within the Christian calendar.
@@Heart.rupture Christmas doesn’t have pagan roots lol, the practices of Christmas that people say are pagan weren’t actually adopted until after Christmas was a thing, and even then it’s debatable if they’re even pagan, this has been debunked many times
@@AH-xo1ev Christianity was being spread at a time of great paganism. The church fathers combined a lot of the pagan celebrations with Christianity to make it more suitable and an easier transition for them. Where do you think having a tree in ur house came from? I’m sure jesus didn’t tell u to do that. Jesus didn’t tell the people to do a lot of things…but that’s a discussion for another time
No disrespect, i love your content and i pray that God continues to bless you, ur marriage, and ur channel. However, i encourage you to dive deep into what happens on halloween and the doors youre opening when you participate in it. Its not just a holiday. Its a spiritual battle.
Amen!

@@gabrieljoselebron6762you're absolutely right! How did you know?? You open the door to the devil and his demons of darkness to step right on into your life. God's people can't sit at both tables. It's either light or dark, no in between.
@gabrieljoselebron6762 Whether or not God decides to hear your prayer as sincere or sarcasm, i also pray the same. I dont usually comment on videos, and i do not want to engage in keyboard wars. I am simply rebuking with love.
Hi Spencer, I love you, but you are wrong on this one. Please, pray about it and seek guidance from The Holy Spirit. See what's usually associated with halloween, whether it is the true origin or not, and ask yourself if you want to be associated with it, as a christian. May God bless you, show you the truth and forgive you, in Jesus name.
See I agree with you imagine people celebrating Halloween for whatever reasons whether it's the old pagan gods whether it's worshiping Satan whatever The meaning they have has nothing to do with God/Jesus in any way even if your intentions are for example you're not worshiping anyone else and it's just a fun holiday I don't think that makes a difference. I think of it like this we'll use the devil for example he wants 100,000 people's to worship him on Halloween or worship the holiday he has 95,000 people that are his followers that do so The other 5,000 that are celebrating Halloween are made up of individuals that are celebrating it not to worship him but to have fun on the day I don't think he sees the difference you still have 100,000 people celebrating that day whether the intentions are good or bad The goal has still been achieved. And that's how many can be manipulated hey if you think it's good it's good not so sure that's how it works. Anyways again love your comment and be blessed stay blessed and God bless

Actually, Halloween has its roots in the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, a pagan religious celebration to welcome the end of summer harvest. It was actually the Catholics who adopted the traditions of that festival for their "Days of the Dead"; thereby causing many to consider Halloween, as we know it, a Catholic holy day. I think the dangerous conflation of these two things has caused many believers to think it is ok to participate in the darkness of this pagan practice.
I disagree, exsatanists testimonies can be informative and interesting but ultimately the word has to have the final say. The Bible says do all things for the glory of God, I just cannot see how Halloween festivities and dress ups glorifies God.
Do you think RUclips glorifies God?
Personally, I believe giving out treats on to your neighbors, an exercise of generosity and kindness, is glorifying to God b
I usually find most of your content educational and truthful, but I have to disagree on this one. First off, I would do some research on Christmas, which is of pagan origin. Saternalia was a pagan holiday celebrated around the 25th of december in Rome. Just because it is rebranded with a different name doesn't make it not Pagan. I am just saying. Even if you don't look at the whole santa aspect. Nobody 100% knows Jesus's birthday. We know though that at the time of his birth the shepherds were out watching the sheep in the fields. That eliminates his birth being in the winter, as the sheep would not be out in fields at that time of year. Halloween is an even more blatant satanic holiday. Let's face it; you can justify to celebrate it all day, but it is about dressing up in most of the times creepy and gorey costumes. Easter also has it's pagan origins and so on, and so forth. I can say for certain if God wanted us to celebrate halloween, easter, and Christmas then it would be in the bible. God does say not to celebrate the traditions of man. There are feast days in the bible that we Don't celebrate (including myself) that God mentions to keep those feast days. However, we take the time to celebrate holidays made up by man that are NOT in the bible. They were pagan are pagan and always will be pagan. Sorry to burst that bubble, but the truth can be devastating. We know many of the things that are pushed in the world are part of these satanic agendas. If those holidays were truly for God, then they would of been gone long ago. This is not a message from me but the spirit of God gave me the wisdom to write this message to you all please do more research on these holidays God bless!
Which bibleverse does it say not to celebrate traditions of man? Really interested in that one.
@@dudfetbird 8] For laying aside the commandment of God, ye hold the tradition of men, as the washing of pots and cups: and many other such like things ye do.
[9] And he said unto them, Full well ye reject the commandment of God, that ye may keep your own tradition.
Mark 7:8-9
Amen! Teach, Holy Spirit!
As a Christian when I celebrate Christmas, it’s because I’m celebrating his birth. Not the gifts, the tree, etc. the sole purpose of Christmas is to celebrate Christ being born. we don’t know when his exact birthdate but we celebrate his coming.
We celebrate Christmas to represent a time where we can celebrate Jesus birth, we know he wasn’t born in the winter but we use December to represent it
The question isn't about who owns the day or what our intentions are.We are called to honour Him in our spending (tithes, giving, good stewardship), we are called to honour him with our bodies (being chaste, the covenant of marriage, faithfulness, preserving the temple of the Holy Spirit). We honour Him with our words and actions. The question I would ask as a fellow Christian, would be "how does halloween honour God?"
Satan doesn’t own any days.
Amen.Absolurely on point💯🙏
Explanation: Catholics created this holiday to remember dead loved ones, but during Samhain people would offer food to the spirits to ward OFF evil. which is why children go Trick-or-treating to door to door for candy.
Ephesians 5:11 - And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
Ephesians 4:27 - Neither give place to the devil.
1 Corinthians 10:21 - Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.
1 Peter 5:8 - Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
Leviticus 19:31 - Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God
The infinite, glorious, innocent wonder of the wonderful Word of God !
That's why these great warnings of the Word of God had to be written to call people unto God's life-giving sweetness.
Thank you !
Isaiah 47, Revelation 22:15
Romans 1:1---look at verse 32
Also ! Jesus cast out the unclean spirits WITH HIS WORD!
We stay home and have family time. No one feels slighted. I appreciate John Ramirez's take on it all. I'd rather pray against it than participate. I don't want to look like the world.
Well, I don't know about you but the God I worship is the God of life. I won't dress up for a celebration of death.
thank you for explaining this perfectly
i totally agree with you:)
@AMONGTHESUSSYBAKASthis holiday transpired passed catholocism this holiday was one of the pagan holidays people would use as a day to celebrate and worship the dead by dressing up like them or leaving out candy or something sweet so that the dead would be satisfied
@AMONGTHESUSSYBAKASand just as you say why am I blamed for someone else’s sins is like saying why is curse upon me for what Adam and Eve did. Sin is not just an act of doing wrong it empowers something in the atmosphere around us just as our good deeds bring light sin brings darkness and death so while being in a scenery where the purpose of the holiday is to promote sin and not for the simple fact of getting candy is saying u what the cake without the diabetes Satan doesn’t care about our intentions at all. I’m not saying as a Christian your gonna get possessed because that can’t happen you can have a stronghold on your life but u can’t be possessed by a demon but what I am saying your opening up a lot of portals and giving the devil a lot of legal right by putting yourself out there like that. I’m saying as a brother in Christ I wouldn’t celebrate Halloween with any intentions I would rather stay home or go out and preach the gospel like what we are called to do not indulge in it and if I want candy I’ll just get some on my own not dress up and get some.
@AMONGTHESUSSYBAKASHalloween is not a catholic holiday. It was original a celebration day of the heathens called Samhain (pronounced sow-in) and came from europe. They would celebrate the dead and used it as a gate to communicate with spirits. Instead of candy cildren would get fruits like oranges but then later they would get cookies that witches put spells on for "good luck". The people dress up to blend in with the spirits they called that night or to posess their powers. Later when catholics came to the lands and took over they made a deal with the heathens which was to keep their holiday but call it All Hallows Eve and to convert to the catholic church. It is a santanic ritual to call what shouldn't come. Your statement: why am i blamed for the sin of others can be easily explained. We are related to Adam and Eve and because of their sining all of us after are all basically born with sin because god is a fair god. Being born without sin means the once that give birth to you should have never sinned. Saying well i dont celeberate the devil but participate in their rituals is self explaining. Your thoughts and intentions on that day don't matter, you actively participate in the pagan ritual no matter how you phrase it. And it can open a door because that is why it is celebrated in the first place.
It's your choice. But if you and your lord know that they are the one you worship, only them, why should it matter?
Sometimes the middle ground is not the answer. I'm sorry but No, stay away. You got people that even has left the occult itself and not these people that work for themselves but have missions of darkness warn of Halloween. I don't understand why any Christian would want to be passive about that. If people who used to be enemies of God are telling you don't, You probably should not and even then, the word is clear. The enemy wants you with your guard down, even in your innocence of it all as a child.
You cannot unintentionally worship the devil.
A middle ground is fine
I see a lot of rebuke in the comment section, I'm so happy to see my brothers and sisters in Christ standing by the truth. Love and peace and blessings to you all in Jesus name
amen brothers and sisters stay strong continue to preach the word and the gospel in season and out of season. make foolproof thy ministry ! always pray for more discernment in these last days. Jesus our precious Lord will be here shortly to rescue us out of this pit.
THANK YOU this is so common-sense. I’ve been looking for a take like this. We can be so black/white about things sometimes. I love the desire to honor God in everything, but it can easily lead us to overthinking things and acting out of fear! As someone who loves art/creativity, I’ve always loved Halloween as a chance to have fun with our imagination and crafting things - enjoying a childlike kind of play
Halloween is another word for all hallow’s eve. It is the evening before all hallow’s day, also knows as all saints day. Yes, the holiday has was originally from celtic and gaelic culture, but they were christianized by the early church and the holiday was adapted. As far as i know all saints day (and eve) just remembers the christian martyrs. It doesn’t glorify the devil or death and destruction. You don’t have to participate if you don’t want to, but let’s not judge our christian brothers and sisters too harshly for wanting to catch up with friends in a fun way. I feel some people are looking too deep into this.
I see some comments saying " not all people should become teachers..." in all fairness, just because someone who walks with the Lord and made a mistake in the lesson doesnt automatically make that person a false teacher. Of course we must discern from whom we listen to. But as always, when we have to correct someone. we do it with love not to quickly jump to it and say such matter. We must quick to listen and slow in speech.
some people are just plants (parable of the wheat and the tares) to deceive chrisitans , because the devil is mad that we no longer serve him. Jesus said, let them grow together and at the end of the age the angels will gather the wheat into HIS barn and the chaff into the fire.
@@truthbtold6118 yes, even there are people who dresses up as wolves in sheeps clothing and even the devil can appear as an angel of light. There is a difference who makes a mistake and some are ignorant that needs more wisdom and guidance from the wonderful precious Holy Spirit and the ones who deliberately lie by twisting God's word. Those who acknowledge Jesus as God, that he scarfaced himself and placed our sins on him. So we can be made right with the Father and have eternal life but must wait patiently until that day when there will be no sin, death, where we can dwell with him in the new heaven and new earth. We all not perfect, we are not rightous not even one of us. Even so, we must repent from our sins and run to Jesus. The Lord knows who truly belongs to him.
@@truthbtold6118 I know the devil hates it when someone doesn't serve him anymore. That's when he would do whatever he can to cause division, fear, ways to turn you away from the Almighty God, the Kings of kings and Lord of lords, the prince of peace. The enemy knows his days are numbered and will be cast into the lake of fire for all eternity. He is fighting a losing war.....
Gaining a lot of knowledge from these comments. Thanks everyone.
Many people have brought up very good points and verses that speak to the reasons why those who believe in God should refrain from celebrating Halloween. The Bible will not explicitly tell you what to do in this case, so it really depends on where you are at in your faith and walk with the Lord. If you do not have that conviction to be set apart and sanctified as the Bible instructs us to be then you will not understand why SOME believers refrain from halloween. It does not mean that they are “better” or “more holy” they just have understood that the Lord wants his bride to be clean. (Yes it is that deep “A little yeast works through all the dough” Gal 5:9)And no this does not mean that they are perfect because just as Paul said “not that I have already obtained all this …” Phil3:12. As believers in Christ we should all be striving to live a life of purity and sanctification and that means letting go of the things of this world. And for those who say “oh well it’s for the kids. How can we keep them from having fun?” I think parents should instruct their children that as believers we don’t roll with the world, no matter how “fun” it may be their salvation is worth more than a bucket of candy. They should be learning to fear the Lord from a young age so that when they grow older they will not depart from the truth. I didn’t grow up celebrating Halloween or Christmas and am thankful for that. You need to “turn-off” those desires to live a life in-tuned with the world so that you are tuned-in with God’s presence. Those that have no fear of the Lord may call me “boring” for not ever dressing up or opening presents on dec 25 but I there is no desire in me to participate and hope that my brothers and sisters in Christ can also strive to live a life that is sanctified. No hate to the creator of the short but I had to comment on how wrong it is.
The difference is the maturity level of the Christian.
An immature Christian would think the act of dressing up as superman is a form of devil worship just because some people worship the devil on a particular day.
The mature Christian knows that it isn't what goes into the mouth, what what come out of the mouth....
Dressing up as superman is not a sin and it is not devil worship.
But mature Christians have to take into account the immature Christians thoughts. We are to affend the world, bot the immature Christian....
So if a group of Christians are together and they want to go trick or treating, but an immature Christian is apposed do to their conscience then the Christians should refrain from that activity to honor the Immature Christian.
In short, it is not a sin to dress up as superman..... however it can become a sin if you or any Christian are causing a stumbling block for a newer Christian who's conscience is telling them not to partake in the activity....
Most things are like this.... what food we can or can't eat, tattoos, Christmas etc.
The Bible is clear on pagan holidays. No amount of “innocent” costumes can justify the celebration of Halloween.
@@mimix5896 again, it depends on if a Christian has a weaker conscience. If so, then they should not partake in dressing up as superman.
But a mature Christian, who knows that dressing up as superman is not what defiles him, then he is not in the wrong for having a bonding moment with his kids while they stuff themselves with candy.
@@mimix5896 also, can you explain how dressing up as superman and eating candy is pagan?
As a Christian, basically all of us celebrate Halloween.
let people have fun, its a public holiday at this point not a religious one,even christmas these days isnt purely religious and people everywhere celebrate it

@@laiyemoboys9255 thank you

@@samueltlaczani4494the origin of easter is LITERALLY the resurrection of Christ, way before the easter “goddess” took over its meaning

@yungwelfare3394 and guess what you just hit the problem right on the mark the past has nothing to do with it now have you learned nothing from your walk with Jesus just cause we were wicked in the past does that mean we are wicked now? No so if Easter used to be Godly but is wicked now then yeah you're serving the devil doesn't matter what it used to be same for Halloween if it used to be catholic then it's not now but it also depends on how you celebrate it my mom dressing like a donkey and giving candy and glow sticks to kids is not serving the devil in any way so its fine but if you're dressing your kids and taking them to strangers houses you're opening doors for demons and witchcraft if you go to church and get a bunch of candy with your kids than that's okay cause it's not serving the devil it's not about the past it's about what it is right now
Brother, i loved most if not all your content and we can agree on most of the things you teach but there is something in Halloween that calls out in my spirit that says we should not partake in it. Before it was even a catholic holiday was it not pagan before? Didnt it hace celtic roots binding to it and its history?
That night may have been for saints but it isnt now and what counts is not what it was back then but it is now. Halloween will never be day in which i see it give glory onto God or praise Jesus for His sacrifice. Love ya Brother for your work though and all your doing and may Jesus be with you in all the things you do. 🙏

Facts
Like the only way I've ever celebrated Halloween is I just like the spookiness of it, and I celebrate more fall than I do Halloween. I just buy a bunch of junk from Walmart, bake brownies, and watch horror movies all day.
But you won't catch me actually celebrating Halloween, because I grew not only believing that it's worshiping Satan, but I was taught it was actually his birthday.
Plus as you said it was originally a pagan holiday before the Satanists took it. Pagans are witches or close to it and in the Bible is specifically states that witchcraft is of the devil. Whether it's used for that purpose or not doesn't matter. All that matters is that it is still sacrilegious to practice witchcraft as a Christian.
Halloween is the same concept, whether it's your purpose to worship or celebrate Satan when you celebrate Halloween or not doesn't matter. The fact is it is still sacrilegious to celebrate it if you believe in and worship God.
halloween coming from samhain is a complete myth. all saints day was originally celebrated in april. it being changed to november first has no correlation to the pagan practice of samhain.
Amen brotha❤
Yes, you’re absolutely right, dressing up and getting candy is one thing, but walking into a home that’s completely decorated in demonic things is Satan’s way of luring kids.
FACTS because my teacher got in this argument with me that Halloween is so bad and that it’s so sinful, like girl just cause I’m dressing up as a cartoon character doesn’t mean that I am some Satan that supporting the devil.
I agree with you. When I dress up for Halloween it's not for worshiping demons or anything. My point of dressing up is to get candy. Even if you don't dress up I've seen people give out candy.
No, thank you!! I'm not condemning anyone. However, my children will not even dress up as an angel on Halloween. It gets no acknowledgment from me and my house.
And a strong amen to that
its literally a Christian holiday. im guessing you guys dont celebrate Christmas or easter then too?

@@shell7142 oh great... youre one of those people who just believes every myth you read... anyway, no, ishtar has no relation to easter. this was a myth invented (if i recall it was by an atheist in the early 20th century) and debunked countless times, even by IP. ishtar has no relation to easter. we have early church records of the day Christ was crucified. we have ash wednesday, good friday, and easter sunday. please do your research next time
@@ArashiNoSeitoIt's really not. At best, it's a pagan holiday stolen by Christians during the time of forced conversions and the eradication of paganism. Halloween is actually Samhain, it has nothing to do with Christianity.
If you want to reform Halloween as a Christian holiday and celebrate it in a completely different way, then by all means- get together to break bread with other believers, invite others and spread the word of God. But should we really open ourselves up to temptation by celebrating the way that the people who worship themselves, the world, or satan do? What's the point in dressing up to receive free candy and eat it all in a gluttonous fashion? To have fun? We were not created to have fun. Bad things happen on Halloween and that's the truth. Parties where people have fun by submitting to vices or lust; kidnappings, rapings, murders. The holiday itself may seem harmless in many ways, but isn't it the enemy's goal to twist evil and make it seem harmless? He has infiltrated our schools, our churches and our holidays luring many people astray. This also includes Christmas. It was originally designated to worship God and the birth of His son. Yet, now it's been twisted into a materialistic celebration where kids are encouraged to believe in a fat man that gives them anything they desire, who travels the world on a magic sled pulled by flying reindeer. There is nothing harmless about it, it is simply a disguise. If you see the patterns, this is an attack that enemy has used for generations- targetting children who are the most vulnerable and susceptible of us all. We should seperate ourselves from the world and when we are confused on what path to follow, ask the Holy Spirit to guide you. Ultimately, if Jesus wouldn't do it, don't do it either. Our goal is to be more like Him and less like us.
Halloween was for a long time a day where we would mock demons by wearing ugly masks and walking around begging for candy
@@randomcanadaguy32is that what you were told? Is that biblical? Did God command you to mock demons? Does it work?
@@S91761 mocking is a form of humiliation which is a very harsh way of making one humble with satan’s fall being caused by pride to humble him is to hurt him and if halloween is indeed a day when spirits are more active as so many people in this comment section are say (which I do not disagree with) then we did this as a defence against the evil spirits which are active but also to celebrate halloween as a sole holiday would be no good as halloween is part of a trio of holidays which emphasizes the connection between this world and the spiritual places (hell, purgatory and heaven) and if you don’t believe those places can connect with the world then you’d better reconsider your faith as spiritual warfare is a thing and it takes place here.
@@randomcanadaguy32 And you think dressing like the devil to "mock" them really does something, huh? Again, is that biblical? The answer is no. The only thing kids care about halloween is to get candy and have fun. If you believe this is a contribution to spiritual warfare or helping God or whatever, you need to reconsider reading the bible again. I'm pretty sure that people who celebrate "dias de los muertos" have similar explanations.
@@S91761 to be fair not many celebrate halloween that way anymore but also not many celebrate it as a demonic ceremony either. Does everything need to be from the bible, yes it is the best thing for discovering more about God but if it is our only source of Gods knowledge then christianity is a dead religion that died when we finished making the bible but it is not dead to me as many have put their whole lives into discerning things like this and others, yes the bible has all the necessary revelations but that does not mean it has all revelation until the end of time in it
I would recommend no one to follow those beliefs. You can worship the devil and not realise it. It doesn't mean you're not worshipping him. It is written: My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6) Stay smart and safe in Jesus name 🙏
Amen❤
For the people talking about how Halloween is bad cause it’s got pagan roots, Christmas also has pagan roots. It was originally a two week long celebration with drinking, orgies, and large bonfires that were to celebrate the winter solstice as well as Sun gods
EXACTLY!
EXACTLY, it’s not even pages it’s catholic roots. People FR need to do there research
Its not worshipping the devil but its following the traditions of the world.
God called us to be set apart
So why are we dressing up on that day specifically, when we have all other days to do it ?
Regardless, even if you're not worshipping Satan, you're following the worlds religion.
God has inspired me to share this Wonderful Good News that deserves to be heard by everyone.
Jesus is the only way to Salvation
John 14:6 - “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father except through me.”
And No Matter what you are going through GOD Loves You.
1 John 4:9-10. In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Why would one who is of the light want to celebrate ANYTHING that glorifies darkness?
It doesn’t though…it’s dressing up as something fun and getting free candy! Dressing up as a ghost doesn’t mean you worship anything bad, it’s just a way to get free food.
@@TomatoFroggo Food was at the center of the fall into sin.
Ask yourself, would Jesus dress up as a ghost just to go around and get free candy? Nope.
@@seekingthelostministries6387I could totally see Jesus giving candy out to kids though.
@@ethandoodlez9987 Would he though? Jesus did more healing than preaching, so he was pretty big on health. Seems rather un-Jesus like to give children loads of sugar.
@@seekingthelostministries6387 Jesus also turned water into wine and wine isn’t the healthiest thing for you so 🤷♂️
YOU NEED TO KNOW THE ORIGINAL AND TRUE MEANING OF CHRISTMAS , EASTER AND HALLOWEEN, ALL PAGAN HOLIDAYS❣️
Winter Solstice 22 Dec
Finally someone who gets it. It's how the Devil deceives us to participate in Baal worship. Masking evil as good.
Exactly
As a Christian I agree completely
Dont murky the waters of righteousness. Any participation in darkness is bad especially if you know what happens on that day. We pray and counteract.
I don’t trust this logic. Do you think people know they’re possessed by demons or did they give the demons permission first??
Man, this doesn't mean he is "possessed" by demons, this is his beliefs, you don't have to trust the logic, it's your way to find your path with God, everyone's path is different, focus on yourself.
@@darknitethor I didn’t say *he* was possessed. But merely bringing awareness that we could unknowingly be possessing or worshipping something that isn’t aligned with our values.
I dont support halloween, but believers cant be possessed by demons, only unbelievers
Halloween was originally a holiday whose purpose was to ward off demons
All throughout the Old Testament Yah appointed the feast days. the Holy-days. Yah wants us to celebrate Him, not other gods.
"These are the names of the sons of Aaron: Nadab the firstborn, then Abihu, Eleazar, and Ithamar. These were Aaron’s sons, the anointed priests, who were ordained to serve as priests.
Nadab and Abihu, however, died in the presence of the LORD when they offered unauthorized fire before the LORD in the Wilderness of Sinai."
Same Yahweh. Be careful of what you teach for you will be judged more harshly.
@@yg0790 Christmas is on the winter solstice because that is when Horus, the pagan sun god was said to be born. Easter is about Ishtar, the goddess of fertility.
I didn't want to believe it at first too but Yah never told us to worship on these days. Better to celebrate Passover or other Biblical feasts.
You shall have no other gods before me. Celebrating a holiday of the world vs one of Adonai's Holy Days. You have a choice. To have one foot in heaven and the world, to be planted in the world, or to be rooted in Jesus.
It only takes a little yeast to leaven the loaf. If you choose to compromise in allowing 1 pagan holiday in your life where else will you compromise.
It seems like RUclips is a god in your life....
@@DrDoerk Anything can be an idol. Money can be a god. But it can also be a tool. It depends on what you use it for. And what it's purpose is.
@@TheGamerCoronix exactly....
What would you say to the single father who dresses up with his daughter to go door to door for candy and fun?
This father is able to spend quality time with his daughter and show that he loves her while they both get sick with candy.... a memory they will have for a lifetime.
How is that sin?
A father taking time out of his day to bond with his daughter..... is that man a sinner for that action?
It seems as if this is a double standard.
You claim that you can use a secular sinful app as a tool for God's kingdom, but a man isn't able to use a costume for God's kingdom?
That is pretty hypocritical of you.
@@DrDoerk Choosing to dress up and go door to door is not inherently sinful. Choosing to celebrate a holiday of the world vs a Holy Day of Adonai is a choice we make. A choice to step into the world and allow the flesh to get what it wants.
There is nothing wrong with a father spending time with his daughter, creating core memories. However, as Proverbs 22:6 states: Train up a child in the way he or she should go,
when he or she is old he or she will not turn from it.
It is a choice. To celebrate a day that the world has created to pull you away from God. To allow more compromise on the Word.
As Romans 12:2 states:
2 Do not be conformed to this world but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the will of God-what is good and acceptable and perfect.
You can create memories without being of the world.
Also since when has youtube been a secular sinful app. It is a tool. Unless you are saying it breaks the second commandment of Exodus 20:4 -
Do not make for yourself a graven image[a], or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above or on the earth below or in the water under the earth.
Then I will agree. But people can hear the word of God of this app as well as lies. But in the end we are all to seek the truth and determine whether it is actually the truth.
Although I do appreciate your concern and I am trying to reduce my time on this app. Some days it's easier and some days its harder. The demon of distraction that tries to take my attention does fill this app. And to that I will also agree.
I say leave it up to your personal convictions. We have the holt spirit to guide us. What one person deems a no no, doesn’t mean someone else has to feel that way. My family doesn’t celebrate it and that’s because as a family (myself, husband and kids) decided that we didn’t want to celebrate Halloween.
As a Christian, I 100% agree with this. Just because I celebrate Halloween by dressing in a funny costume and getting candy doesn’t mean I’m worshiping Satan.
But is God presence found in this? Do we honor ourselves or him on this day? When Halloween comes around, what do you see, people gathering to give glory to God or to fantasy?
@@shaundrecacoleman3910the way I see it, unless you're Amish, you're a hypocrite. If you're so concerned with separating yourself from "the world," then go and actually do it. Get rid of all your technology, go take medication that takes away your natural sexual urges, etc. All I'm seeing is a bunch of self righteous cherrypickers
@@shaundrecacoleman3910When you see everyone in america open presents does that necessarily mean they are praising God? No. Atheist are not praising God by giving eachother gifts. Just because Christmas is the day of Jesus birth doesn’t mean that anything that happens on that day automatically becomes a praise to God. People are not automatically giving glory to fantasy by dressing up as spider-man and getting kit kats from their neighbor.
@@shaundrecacoleman3910And also Gods presence is always with us as Christians. Why do you assume that it isn’t if our kids want to dress up as their favorite superhero.
I can 100% still honor God on Halloween, I read my Bible while trick or treating sometimes, it's not a sin to go up to a house and get candy I'm not shouting satanic rituals while doing it. My kids will be allowed to dress up for Halloween if they want to.
Spencer I say this with love and I love you as a brother in christ. Im not here to condemn you But a correction. We can't have something specifically that mirrors of death, fear, and the like. This was something where people was dressing up, having masks and all to confuse the evil spirits if I'm not mistaken. We are to mirror what is pure, Holy peace, love and I can go on. We can't eat at the Lord's table while getting on the side from the devil. Again my brother in christ I love you and you make pretty awsome content. But I disagree with this.
Amen. Much better put than any
@@SuperDougstar thank you, appreciate you . God bless be safe 🙏 all Glory belongs to the Lord
What about Samhain? Originally, it was celebrated by Celtic pagans. The origins are dark, so how can it be okay?
No it wasn’t
Brother respectfully Halloween is not pagan
It comes from All Hallows Eve which is the Eve of all saints Day a Christian Holiday to honor the Saints and Martyrs
Not the pagan holiday Samhain
The only reason we confuse the two
Is because Satanists from the modern time claim it’s stolen from them
You wouldn’t trust a satanist would you?
Over time All Hallows Eve became associated with the dead and Samhain
It wasn’t until European traditions with All hallows eve blended in America is were we have the modern Holiday of Halloween
Like the tradition of trick or treating or dressing up
So Halloween is an entirely Christian Holiday though it has evolved to overtime into Halloween today
It is not a celebration of darkness
It was originally a holy holiday that is now confused with Satan and paganism
Agreed,it’s not. They were “ christianized” by the pope back in that time, he said they were allowed to keep their holidays as long as they did it for God…. Doesn’t make sense but that was them giving in and not cutting ties. The Bible says do not do as the pagens do
I think you need to do more research brother on the origins of this.
careful to call someone your brother or sister, bible says test the spirits whether they are of God because many false prophets have gone out into the world. you shall know them by their fruits . Jesus said, "every tree that bringeth forth not good fruit is hewn(cut) down and thrown into the fire".-kjv
Origins don’t mean crap.
did you do ur research did u find the info were he got this from
@@7miloKfr
it’s fine if you think Halloween is bad y’all but these are actual facts
@@eeslagrakee1514 yea i was talking too tampawizard
Correct me if I'm wrong but Im pretty sure the creator of halloween said something along the lines of "I'm happy that people spend 1 of the days of the year worshipping satan". So if you don't want a relationship with God, then go ahead and worship satan. Even though God loves you and paid the price for ALL your sins, yes all sins, past, present and future sins all paid for. Let's just worship satan right?!?! Even though we have a loving, merciful, gracious God. Let's just worship satan???? I don't think so. "oh I'm only dressing up at eating candy....". Great way at finding a crooked way to support satan
It was the creator of satanism who said that actually. Anton Lavey. But yes you’re right! “I am glad that Christian parents let their children worship the devil at least one night out of the year. Welcome to Halloween”
This guy is spot on!
This is a bad take. Halloween has no redeemable qualities, to be set apart means not desiring to do what the world does. Trying to reclaim things that are not meant for believers anyway is a waste of time and causes confusion.
Wow this not right
Your opinion.
@ItsDark : I agree w/@maddmax4148. Dude is WAAAY off. The Catholic church DID INDEED "sanction" 'All Hollow's Eve' (just like they did 'Christmas' - Christ's Mass) but it was a way of melding pagan rituals w/Christianity. It was thought to be due to aiding in "converting" pagans to Christianity. Either way you look at it, BOTH Halloween and Christmas (not to mention Easter and the like) at its foundation are purely pagan and Christians ought not participate.
How?
@@b1azing905people who’ve actually did pagan/wiccan/satanist worship like I have will tell any Christian it’s a bad idea its called Samhain when i was living in sin id do rituals Specifically on that day as many many other worshippers did people don’t even realize that these worshippers will go out and cast spells on Regions the whole town while kids put on a fake identity to go trick or treating unless Christians going out blessing each house not a wise idea to participate in it
@@b1azing905holloween was a pagan thing at first, do research on what are the true roots
Hey Spencer, with all due respect, you need to really educate yourself regarding where the holidays really originated from. In true christianity, according to the bible, we shouldnt be partaking in ANYTHING that the world celebrates.
James 4:4 states
4.Adulteresses, know ye not that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore is minded to be [the] friend of the world is constituted enemy of God.
You're flip flopping to your convenience because in your belief, it doesn't matter who initiated said holidays, all that matters is how you celebrate it and that is where you're wrong. I ask you this, if someone invited you to their house to enjoy a home cooked meal, and when they went to serve you the food they presented it to you in the dogs bowl, would you eat it? Even if the host told you that the bowl was sterilized and thoroughly cleaned you still wouldnt eat it because the only thing you see is the dogs bowl and you would feel disrespected. How do you think God feels when we take a holiday which is designated for worship to the enemy, and we " christianize it" ? Brother youre a very smart man but you need to ask God for discernment regarding these topics because without knowing it, you could be leading people to indulge in idolatrous practices and that is an anomination to God.
2 Corinthians 6:15 states
15. And what concord hath Christ with Belial? or what part hath he that believeth with an infidel?
I pray that you find the truth about it all and that God grant you the wisdom to understand what he desires from his people. God bless!
Okay, but do you know you are fully okay with God as well? because, opinions matter too, and beliefs matter as well. And, he is being logical. Most of these comments are religion, not a relationship with God, you can't just say he "needs to educate himself", I am not a Christian, I have a relationship with God, It's how you view the holiday, and do it.
And did you know that Christmas isn't even God's Birthday?, Did you know people still do Christmas? even though it isn't his Birthday?, But I won't stop celebrating Christmas because it's a good "holiday" to hangout with your family.
Just stop being so quick to judge people, when you don't even know if yourself is 100% with God, It's a relationship, NOT a religion.
Believe what ya want to believe, just remember that you have to allow people to find their own way with God, because it truly is not your problem to deal with it, it's God's job to do that.
@ItsDark. I disagree. You can't be ok with God and participate in worldly activities. I dontvsaybit, the Bible does. See, there is no gray arrlea with God. It is either black or white, good or evil, God or Satan. The problem nowadays is that no one wants to accept God's terms according to what is written in the Scriptures. We want to make our own terms and rules and we expect Him to accept it because we say we do it for Him. It doesn't work that way. The Almighty already established through His Word what he expects from us; obedience. A clear example of this is the life of King Saul. Yahuwah gave him specific instructions and ordered him to destroy ALL of the Amalekites, from the children down to the animals, everyone was to be utterly destroyed. Buy he thought that it was in his best interest to disobey The Almighty's order and "out of the kindness of his heart" bring back cattle and sheep to, according to him,offer in sacrifice to Yahuwah. The one thing we absolutely can not do is take something that is destined for Satan's worship and bring it to God as an offering. He doesn't share His glory with no one! Isaiah 42:8 states
8.I am the Lord: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.
So we need to stop taking things from the world and trying to " christianize it" , thinking that we are pleasing Yahuwah when in actuality we're offending Him.
@ItsDark. oh and by the way, God really doesn't care about what your opinion is, all He wants is our obedience to His Word, obedience instead of sacrifice. This is not a matter of what my opinion is or what anybody thinks, it's according to what the Scriptures say. Am I perfect, ABSOLUTLEY NOT! But Yahuwah doesn't call us to be perfect but to be obedient to His Word, and in God's eyes, that's all that really matters.
@@josesanchez7970 I by no means celebrate Halloween for God, I celebrate it for family, and memories, I don't worship any demons or the devil, and I don't dress up as a demon either, or do anything of worshiping of the devil, It is only for fun and family.
It is of opinions in a way, because it is his job to path our future, he knows every little thing that is going to happen before it does in our life.
So yes, it is your way of believing in our creator, he will lead you, just follow him and his commandments.
I am by no means a Christian because that is religion, but I have a relationship with our creator, and I don't attend to church, because I believe praying alone is of God, and you may not agree with this, but that doesn't make it bad.
By what I was saying, make your own path, don't lose your values and morals, don't follow trends, and stick with what you believe and don't let it be changed by anyone, because that is your path you've chosen, and that's how you are connected with Yahweh.
I feel good about Christmas because I am allowed to hangout with my family and make memories, and yes there is many other ways! but Christmas brings my family together to give gifts, be kind and have lots of fun even if it isn't God's birthday.
And Halloween on the other hand, I do it with my family to have fun and get candy that's purely it, I don't practice ANY devil worship or demon worship, it is not my goal to bring them in my presence, and I don't I have no intent to do so.
Just for fun & memories for me, and I don't feel bad about it either, and I still pray to God, and when I do these, I feel happiness joy & at the same time I am creating memories, and I feel good with God as well.
God wants you to enjoy this world, and enjoy life, and I am not saying go party in clubs and do sinning things, I am talking about enjoy your family he has created for you, and enjoy time with them, because once their gone you won't see them again for a long time.
So don't just sit alone and do nothing with your family actually get out there and do stuff because memories REALLY matter, and family does too, because if you sit alone, do nothing then you are also doing what he doesn't want you to do, he wants you to enjoy the life he has given to you.
But don't let me change the way you see things, remember to stick with what you believe.
@ItsDark. trust me you're not changing the way I think and I thoroughly enjoy the company of my family without indulging into worldly practices. Like the Bible says in James 1:8
8. A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.
And like I told you before, our opinions mean nothing to Yahuwah because our service to Him is not based on what I think it should be , it's based on what His word says we should do. You really need to understand something; when you participate in anything that the world promotes, in this case holidays, you're saying to the Almighty that you don't care how He feels, you care more about how tou feel. Isn't that being selfish? God provides you with everything you have, more importantly with health and life. And the way you say " Thank you" is by rejecting what His Word commands us to do and taking solace in doing what your flesh wants you to do. The Bible states in John 6:63
63.It is the Spirit which quickens, the flesh profits nothing: the words which I have spoken unto you are spirit and are life.
1 John 2:15-17
Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world-the desires of the flesh and the desires of the eyes and pride of life-is not from the Father but is from the world. And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever..
Colossians 3:2
Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.
Romans 12:2
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.
These are some Bible verses that indicate to us how we should live. This is not based on opinion, this is based on undeniable facts. But it seems to me that, and I say this respectfully, you need a true encounter with Yahshua. I say this because when you have Yahshua in your life, none of these worldly pleasures that you so fondly like to celebrate will be worth your time. Yahshua completes you in such a way that those things become irrelevant. I pray that the Almighty reveals himself to you and reveals why these holidays should never be celebrated. God bless🙏🏾
I’m a Christian and I never had a problem with it Holloween, just go get candy and understand what you believe
Soooo as a catholic I can say we didn’t give them Halloween and we still celebrate it as all hallows eve which is basically just All Saints’ Day eve
exactly
I’m Christian but still go out on Halloween. Not saying anything about “Oh it’s not this” or “It’s not that”. It’s just fun to hang out with friends and get candy. It doesn’t have to be assault with Satan. But it’s also not really associated with God.
Same I’m just a normal 8th grader and love doing Halloween with friends and getting candy but this year each time I knock on a persons door I’m gonna say “Jesus loves you” each time
I have heard from numerous ex Satanist, witches, and those on the occult that as Christians, we should not be celebrating this day, even if we do it, not dressed in scary costumes. Light has no place with darkness, and Halloween is a dark day. Just research what Satanist, witches, etc, do on this day. We are to be a light to the world, and celebrating this day is not doing that. Every person can make their own choice, but I do not think this honors Christ at all. Sorry, I disagree with this one but love your other content. God bless
They celebrate The Winter Solstice
Pretty sure satanists are doing bad things most days of the year.
If u are a christian read only the comments 🎉🎉❤❤
I am going to spread some historical facts without bias. Use this info however you want, and to make up your own mind.
Key points about the history of Halloween, tracing its roots and evolution:
1. **Celtic Festival of Samhain:**
- Halloween's origins can be traced back to the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, celebrated around November 1st.
- Samhain marked the end of the harvest season and the beginning of winter. It was believed that during this time, the boundary between the living and the dead became blurred.
2. **Cultural Influence of the Celts:**
- The Celts, who inhabited regions of modern-day Ireland, the United Kingdom, and northern France, celebrated Samhain with bonfires and believed that spirits could roam freely.
3. **Roman Influence:**
- With the expansion of the Roman Empire, Celtic traditions merged with Roman festivals, including Feralia (a day in late October to honor the dead) and Pomona (a festival associated with fruits and trees).
4. **Christianization and All Saints' Day:**
- As Christianity spread, the Church sought to replace pagan festivals with Christian ones. In the 8th century, Pope Gregory III designated November 1st as All Saints' Day to honor saints and martyrs.
5. **All Hallows' Eve:**
- The evening before All Saints' Day became known as All Hallows' Eve or Halloween. The name evolved over time, and Halloween retained some of the traditions from Samhain.
6. **Medieval and Early Modern Practices:**
- In medieval Europe, Halloween traditions included "souling" (begging for soul cakes) and costumes to ward off spirits. It also involved rituals predicting marriage and fortune-telling.
7. **Irish and Scottish Immigration to the U.S.:**
- The migration of Irish and Scottish immigrants to the United States in the 19th century brought Halloween customs to North America.
8. **Commercialization and American Traditions:**
- In the early 20th century, Halloween became more commercialized in the United States. Trick-or-treating gained popularity, and costumes became a central element.
9. **Globalization of Halloween:**
- Halloween spread globally through cultural exchange and media influence. Different regions adopted and adapted traditions, blending local customs with the commercial aspects of Halloween.
10. **Modern Celebrations:**
- Today, Halloween is celebrated in various ways around the world. It has become a secular holiday with activities like trick-or-treating, costume parties, haunted houses, and the display of jack-o'-lanterns.
Halloween has transformed from an ancient Celtic festival to a modern, widely celebrated holiday with a mix of cultural influences. Its roots in honoring the dead and the changing of seasons are still evident in many of its traditions.
1 Corinthians 10:20-22
[20]Rather, that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice they sacrifice to demons and not to God, and I do not want you to have fellowship with demons.
[21]You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons; you cannot partake of the Lord’s table and of the table of demons.
[22]Or do we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than He? All to the Glory of God."
Leviticus 19:31: “Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God.” (KJV)
Leviticus 20:6: “And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.” (KJV)
Galatians 5:19-20: “Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.” (KJV)
Ephesians 5:11: “And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.” (KJV)
dressing up as something else has to do with a CHANGE of identity.
To have your identity IN CHRIST is essential for a follower of Jesus.

So if I want to dress up as a zebra then I’m changing my identity? That’s not how it works my guy
you are opening your god given "I AM" your awareness or consciousness when you identify with something or someone... and when it is a ritual where there´s a spirit behind you are on the playground of that spirit@@silentapple5923
no, i dont believe there is a zebraspirit behind dressing up as that :D
but there is alot of demonic power behind halloween... but always check your heart with attaching it to gods heart and listen how the holy spirit is guiding you... its all about realtionship with god, not knowing what it right or wrong @@vampheriia
In the 8th century AD, Pope Gregory III designated November 1 as All Saints' Day, a day to honor all Christian saints and martyrs. "The day before All Saints' Day, October 31, became known as All Hallows' Eve, and eventually shortened to Halloween. Halloween was originally a Catholic holiday, and it was celebrated by Catholics around the world."
Just copypaste that to all the salty RUclips Christians who say "Halloween is demonic" lol
I've always thought of halloween as a day where kids dress up as super heros or princesses and ask for candy. That's it. My mom bought some candy for the trick or treaters but she prayed over the candy and blessed it, hoping that anyone who takes from the bowl would have a revelation from God in that household.
But super hero are not of God, it's fantasy, God is the only hero that children should know, not this make believe stuff, none of the costumes honor God at all, it's clear as crystal.

Halloween is a Gaelic (Irish) tradition, it wasn’t started as a catholic holiday, yes gaelics eventually were Catholic but it’s a literal pagan holiday idk what your talking about
Jesus is the center of Christmas - what is being celebrating on Halloween?
I'm not going to compare. But if something turns evil, though once was okay, I'm not going to participate. Like so much on TV now. We didnt have so many worldly programs, and many shows had morals to the story. Now, television is in the gutter. Don't watch it much
Your logic does not aline with the Bible.
Whether therefore ye eat, or drink, or whatsoever ye do, do all to the glory of God.
1 Corinthians 10:31
Exactly! Partaking only Halloween does not glorify God in any way.
It’s not what they do
It’s where the roots come from
Halloween comes from dark roots therefore I do not want to participate
If some other people claimed the 25th of December then I would still celebrate it because of the origin, not because of a claiming
Let me ask you a question..
How is Halloween glorifying God?
Again. Its written in the encyclopedia that a tomato is a fruit. But would you put tomato in a fruit salad?
Yeah…you don’t?
tomato's are in almost all salads
You can indeed do so.
That's fair, and Christ's birth took place around the Feast of Tabernacles in the Bible, which is around September 23rd. However, the birth of Baal, a very nasty Pagan god, was said to be December 25th. I still do Christmas of course, because why wouldn't you join together to celebrate the birth of Christ? But with every holiday, especially Christian ones, I think it's important to discern what parts are actually Christian and what parts are from foreign influence.
So why would God be okay with us celebrating the birth of Baal? Just like you said, Christ's birthday was not Dec 25th, and Jesus Himself said to remember Him by what again?? Partaking in communion with fellow brothers and sisters to remember the price He paid for us. That's it! He NEVER said to remember Him by celebrating His birth. Christmas is Paganism and we can't make a Pagan holiday into a Christian one no matter how hard we try. God hates idolatry which is Paganism. True Christians should not be participating in ANY of the devil's holidays.
@@aliveinhim9793Christmas is celebrating the birth of Jesus, not Baal.
@@laiyemoboys9255 Christmas is about you trying to turn it into celebrating Jesus when in reality you just need an excuse to celebrate your tradition because it makes you feel good. The holiday is Baal worship, but you try to turn it into a Christian holiday... kind of like what other Christians do with Halloween. They try to make it look "good" when there's nothing good about it, all in the name of making yourself feel good by saying you promote Jesus on the day instead. It just doesn't work that way. God hates Paganism and idolatry. Jesus Christ should be celebrated each and every day in a real Christians life as much as any other day. If it were truly God's day then the rate of suicide on Christmas would not be the most of any day of the year. Stop lying to yourself and surrender your life completely to Jesus Christ and follow Him.
@aliveinhim9793 But some of the holiday did originate from paganism.
@@laiyemoboys9255 As far as Paganism in these holidays go, remember the story of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed-nego (in the book of Daniel). Did they decide to just worship God at the same hour everyone else was worshipping the gold statue that Nebuchadnezzar built and say "God we are not worshipping this statue, but instead worshipping you. Nebuchadnezzar will never know, but we are doing it as unto you and not as unto Nebuchadnezzar." NO, they didn't do that! They did not participate in the worship AT ALL! But why not? Couldn't they have just pretended to worship Nebuchadnezzar's statue, but worship God instead? NO!! They stood up for righteousness and said we will not be participating in anything that isn't according to our God. They got thrown in the fire and didn't burn because the Lord was with them! God is still the same God today. We can't participate in holidays that don't belong to Him and then pretend to worship Him while acting like the Pagan (one who serves other gods). Why do you think Christmas is celebrated all over the world? Certainly not because of Jesus Christ. Dec 25 is the birth date of all the gods of this world, but not Jesus'! Jesus was not born an this date, so what does children have to do with it? Same with Halloween. Same with Easter. Jesus says to be separate from this world and you will inherit eternal life. If you're neither hot nor cold then He will spew you of out His mouth. He also says HIS OWN PEOPLE are DETROYED for lack of knowledge. Jesus said, "He who endures to the END shall be saved". Hope you reconsider celebrating Paganism with the Pagans and seek His wisdom, knowledge, and understanding instead. He'll show you the truth if you become a willing vessel to see the truth.
These people who are so pressed really are out here publicly saying they believe Satan and witchcraft are stronger than God and the Holy Spirit... What an awful thing to teach your children.
No one even said that lmao
do you lot think as a christian u can go to a party on halloween or near halloween and not dress up or have any interaction of demonic characters like zombies and witches, it is not classed as a sin
Great take 👍
It's really the way you celebrate and the reason why you do it because if you celebrate it for satan, that is not right as a christian because that shows that satan is winning you over
Even if you celebrate it for yourself, it's wrong. We are supposed to die to ourselves and follow Jesus, not our flesh which is seeking the approval of others or a good time. God is our good time. God is our fun. We should be dressing ourselves in spiritual armor and Holy Spirit fire, wearing the fruits of the Spirit.
edit: grammar
@@tiannad1378 I don't personally celebrate it either but I totally agree with you
You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons too; you cannot have a part in both the Lord's table and the table of demons. Period.
I don’t understand this issue at all. I want to go out with friends in goofy harmless non demonic costumes and have fun I don’t understand the problem. We face demons in our life every day not just Halloween and everyday God protects me and takes of me from these demons Halloween is no different. If God will protect me from demons any other day He definitely will protect me from demonic attacks on Halloween like any other day. I love God! demons will never win! Amen!
"if you love me keep my commandments"-Jesus.
Bible also says,''come out from among them, be ye separate, touch not the unclean thing and i will receive you saith the LORD.
do not be fooled the devil wants you to be like the world. but the bible says, "do not be conformed to this world but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptible, and perfect will of God"-Romans 12

"God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all".
"without holiness no man shall see the Lord".

stay in your bible and you will stay in God's will and protection....anything less than this you will not make it you are not stronger than the devils and stop exposing yourself to the demonic realm its foolish and you will not win the race this way. run the race that you may obtain your crown.

@@truthbtold6118 … okay my church does outreaches on Halloween. People stop by our church during trick or treating and we give them hot cider hot chocolate cookie candy, and most important flyers about God and the love that God has for them. How are we supposed to make disciples for God if you aren’t willing to go out into the world even in the dark places and dark days and spread the word. No one is dressing as a demon no one is performing demonic acts at my church we use this holiday to bring people in and show them the love of Christ. Dressing up in a costume that is not demonic and going about your day just dressed up as a super hero or a princess is not hanging and welcoming evil spirits. You welcome evil spirits when you perform witchcraft and a lot of nasty things that do go on during Halloween but if you don’t participate in those things there is no problem. We aren’t going to bring people to Christ if we sit on our hands and do nothing. We need to go out even where it’s dangerous to recruit people and show them the love of God. Halloween or not I’m going out to reach people if I can. Costume or no costume I will do my best to bring people to God and show them the love that He has shown me and the love that He has for them
Do it another day
@@timothydeneen5389excuses excuses
@@sharkycraftb2948 ??? How is outreaching to people in the name of Christ an excuse? Are you saying you’re against gospel outreaches 🤨
the "ex satanist proves halloween is satanic" etc stuff has always been so hilarious to me as a SAVED exoccultist, specifically a kabbalistic & solomonic magician. i worked DIRECTLY with demons and FORCED them to do my will... i know what i'm talking about when it comes to these things. and despite years of dedication to this path, the most i heard about halloween being for "us" (at that time) was all this kind of hubbub christians themselves made around october each year. NONE of my books, including famous works on every occultist's shelf (Three Occult Books of Agrippa, Keys of Solomon, Necronomicon, Red Dragon, Goetic Magick, etc etc etc), even MENTION halloween... AT ALL. nevermind worshipping satan on such day. if such a day is so important to those who work with the devil, then why is such an important fact omitted from every text mentioned and others? it's all codswallop IMO if you give it even an ounce of thought especially if you are experienced with these things. plus the fact do you lot understand how painfully difficult it is to summon a demon? even i had trouble doing it on PURPOSE. your kids going out dressed as Spiderman looking at foam gravestone decorations in someone's yard is not going to come close.
on a slightly different note i've even seen people get up in arms over things like witches casting spells on the candy. which even if true (and it's not, never heard of it) i think is extremely ridiculous to get scared about, are you all really that weak in your faith? the demons i worked with TREMBLED at the name of Jesus Christ. it's one of the reasons i converted. ALL spells can be broken through His Holy Name. NO witch can have ANY power over you in JESUS' NAME. USE IT!
trust me, halloween is truly nothing more than a day to dress up, have fun, and get some free candy. do people sin on halloween? of course. do some satanists think this day is for them for various reasons? probably. but even if that was true, that's no reason to let evil have a whole day out of the year that GOD so graciously created for us. LET LOOSE AND HAVE FUN for a day you squares.
Amen
Fun fact Halloween was meant to ward off demons and other spirits with the costumes and jacolanterns
I usually agree with your videos but this one I’ll have to respectfully disagree on. It’s a worldly Holiday that doesn’t edify us or God so what’s the point in celebrating it outside of not wanting to feel left out? Your kids will be just fine. I had Muslim friends I’ve grown up with that never trick or treating during their childhood and they aren’t complaining or miss it.
Does this also apply to birthdays, Easter, or Christmas? One worships yourself, and the other two are pagan holidays that were usually centered around orgies and worshipping sun gods
We should be set apart from the world. Almost every Christian holiday came from a pagan one.
Let’s create our own, not keep bowing down to these traditions of the world.
Someone asked "Would Jesus do it, though?"
Trust your Lord with All Your Heart..and lean not on your own understanding..in all your ways acknowledge Him,and He’ll make your paths straight!!🙌❤️
Thank you! I’ve been wondering this whole time that dressing up as woody and trick or treating was bad, I prayed over literally every skull and every wried inflatable thing I saw, I look at Halloween as a fun day. Not as a day for Satan. Try and look at things the way Jesus would have looked at things. Look at Halloween as it was meant to be, not what it has become.
How is going to a home that’s decorated in demonic, evil decor NOT Participating in Satan activities?
what demonic decor? ive actually never done this, but people just put like spiders, bats and pumpkins. all God's creation. What's demonic about that
Putting up trees and stuff is pagan but that doesn't mean thar celebrating Christmas is pagan.
We need to RE-christianize all hallows eve! (Halloween)
Btw: we still celebrate All Saints’ Day (November 1. And All Souls’ Day, nov 2) but we just remember them and celebrate masses for them ❤
maybe for some people but i wouldn’t say generally. it’s just a fun holiday for everyone at this point and it’s great to have smth to celebrate with friends of all religions
@@Rey-fj5bk I am from Bolivia, a country in South America that is still under a lot of Catholic influence, we still celebrate All Saints' Eve. My country has done its best to keep the tradition faithfully, it is even mandatory by the government to give a day off to receive the deceased.
Here the Catholic history is not as blurred as in other Protestant countries. All Saints' Eve came about when Catholicism arrived in Ireland in the 5th century CE, the Catholic Church found it easier to convert the Celts by incorporating certain pagan celebrations. Including Samhain in a new light, calling it All Saints' Day.
The celebration of All Saints is not at all evangelical Christian, not if it is traditionally celebrated. People wait for the saints and the dead with food at the doors (so that they do not do you any evil) it is believed that what separates the world of the dead from the world of the living is removed. Children come and pray to the dead and in return they are given the food that is cooked for the dead.
I celebrate on All Saints’ Day because it’s my birthday, lol. I grew up Catholic, but never went to masses for either of those days.
This is what I sent to Spencer. Get out of the Catholic church.
God said THIS in Hosea 4:6, My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.
Spencer, you are treading on very thin ice with God when you speak of things that you don't have knowlegde of and lead His children astray. Did you know that Catholicism is Paganism and Paganism is Satanism? It is idolatry at its core and God hates it. What more then if you lead His children to believe idolatry is okay? I HIGHLY suggest you ask God for His wisdom, understanding and knowledge about what the Catholic church really stands for. I grew up Catholic and went to Catholic school. I know all about it and it is EVIL. Please repent and ask God to forgive you for teaching His children that celebrating Paganism is okay. Their blood is on YOUR hands and God does not take that lightly! Hebrews 10:31 It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
@@lightandtruth25samhain has no relation to halloween. october 31st was being used in part of the roman world (Christendom), germany if i recall correctly, and eventually that influence spread to the rest of the world and they just decided to make the date of all hallows eve october 31st. the myth of samhain halloween has been debunked by IP multiple times
Halloween is a Christian holiday! Holloween is All Hallows Eve, the eve of the holy feast day. The following day is All Saints day (where we celebrate the church triumphant in heaven) and the day after is All Souls day (we pray for all souls, especially those who we've lost throughout the past year). These three days together make up Hallowtide.
Where in the Bible is Halloween mentioned? Real question...
@@eliserenée6248You can have celebrations of God on days that are not in the Bible. Thanksgiving is supposed to be a celebration of God’s provision and what he has blessed you with. It’s not in the Bible but Christians in the US still celebrate it
@@eliserenée6248My original comment was confusing. I’m not saying Halloween is a Christian holiday I’m just saying that we have celebrations that are not in the Bible.
I agree. What's evil about getting free candy? My dad doesn't celebrate Halloween because it's a pagan holiday, but he has told me it's not an evil holiday.
