Three weeks ago I requested to have October 31st off as the celebration of Halloween goes against my religious beliefs therefore I do not work or even leave my house on this day. As my request was rejected, here is a written statement
Month: October 2011
Enoch and Samhain
Halloween has grown from a Celtic high holy day celebrated quietly by pagans and wiccans to the second highest retail holiday next to Christmas. Spiritual lines between evil and righteousness have been blurred to the point that many who dress up in costumes, go trick-or-treating, or visit haunted houses actually say they aren’t celebrating Halloween! There are some who admit to being pagan and are proud to celebrate in every way imaginable from orgies to sacrificing animals and children.
Take off the mask … Celebrate Life!
Take off the mask … Celebrate Life is a little booklet I created in 1990 when my first two children were young – 18 months and 3.
Hallowe’en Should Christians Be A Part?
Like so many pagan festivals that were conveniently adapted for Christian usage, Hallowe’en is today accepted as Christian in origin and practice. But the darkness that permeated the minds of those within the Roman Church at that time resulted in the taking of that which was consecrated to Satan and the pagan gods of nature, and offering them to God. We have numerous Scriptures that tell us such a practice is an abomination to God, punishable by death. That’s how much God detests such practices, regardless of whom one says they honor.
