Why do we try to make it less evil to justify participating in a pagan holiday? Halloween is full of devils, whitches, ghosts, and just general evil. The spiritual world is real and true. Our God is stronger than the evil out there, but I believe it's not a good idea to hang around the cleaned up side of the evilness of Halloween. We recently had a series in our church on the spiritual world. A great way to describe the way evil is presented to us is that it is just a little off. It's not extreme evil, because we'd obviously back away. The way that the devil and his demons trip us up is with things that are just a little off. We had a special family night that evening. Our oldest was asking about the costumes, but once we had the fun night she did not even concern herself with the costumes anymore. I know a lot don't want to deprive their children of "good, clean fun;" however, my children had a wonderful time and don't seem the least deprived.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16862863548127508169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4122473193014682738.post-84011296994631792042008-11-05T13:19:00.000-06:002008-11-05T13:19:00.000-06:00I agree with Angie.

Free candy and lots of fun!Emma Hamstrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02169430938031077887noreply@blogger.com
