Is Halloween really evil?

[Aaron]

Aaron, that's probably over the line scripturally speaking because it would be offensive to some.

If we refrain from drinking wine or eating meat for the sake of avoiding offense to the weaker brethren then surely dressing up as the minions of darkness would also no doubt offend them.

I don't think it's a legitimate matter of conscience.

 

[Aaron]

I realised that. I think you may need to recalibrate your irony detection sensor.

Revelation 12:12.

No doubt.

 

[HankD]

I don't think it's a legitimate matter of conscience.

Well, you can see the controversy it generates.

Thankfully it's over, just one bowl of left over candy to eat (We had no takers again) and remind us of Halloween 2016.

OhOh, Now, the Christmas season starts. Yes, it's true, I've seen the ads beginning already.

[evangelist6589]

Just to be clear, I'm not saying saying Christians cannot dress up as ghosts and ghouls. I'm saying they can. Not because they don't fear God, but because they don't fear evil.

And also because Christ's work and the spread of the Gospel have, for the most part, disenchanted the world of Satan's power.

Demonic manifestations are indeed rare. Not commonplace as they were before the Gospel civilized the world.

Do you have proof of this claim? Was devil experiences more common before the gospel civilized the world?
