10.31.2009 Halloween (Ephesians 5:7-12)

Don't participate in the things these people do.

For though your hearts were once full of darkness,

now you are full of light from the Lord, and your

behavior should show it! For this light within you

produces only what is good and right and true.
Try to find out what is pleasing to the Lord.

Take no part in the worthless deeds of evil and

darkness; instead, rebuke and expose them. It is

shameful even to talk about the things that ungodly

people do in secret. (NLT)

Halloween is said to be an evil holiday, and us as Christians are frowned upon taking parts in it. I found out today... well not even today that it is probably true. Specially in college, Halloween is the time when girls can wear not so well covered up clothes and get away with it. It seems like people just go around getting drunk. so i found 2 ways why halloween is evil.

1. it is a holiday where we dress up as ghost and junk, that we shouldn't believe in, but if you do believe in that... it's time for you to believe in God and forget about these things...

2. is for everyone who say "This is for fun!" i don't believe in those things... "Everyone else is doing it..."

We are Christians and we are suppose to swim against the current and make people understand how awesome God is. If we do what everyone else is doing all the time... we are no good as an unbeliever...
