Why do WE as Christians NOT celebrate Halloween?
You know, i have never been trick or treating a day in my life... well a Halloween in my life - but at church we always had some kind of function to compensate for that... Why do we as christians not celebrate Halloween? What is the meaning of the holiday? I mean cinco de Mayo is the day of the dead.. what exactly is Halloween?

Think about it, how you'd feel if someone used the name of your parents or your best friend to swear with/against. You'd hate it. (I know, because I had a friend who used to scream "Bloody Nora" when she got upset. Nora was my mother's name... I told her time and again, to cut it out, but what can I say, she was a bit dim.
People swearing by Christ and God are either as dim as my friend D., or they want to offend Christians. Either way, they need to grow up!
"As for taking it on the chin", why should they have to?

I agree that this debate won't soon disappear... people will always feel compelled to force their beliefs (which they are convinced are absolute truths) upon others.
[...]
But you're also forcing your beliefs on others by saying that they can't force their beliefs on other people...
that's your belief and you want everyone to conform to it.

It's not a stretch to see the similarity between Obama and Osama in terms of their ideology and their names are pretty darn similar! Both think that America is inherently bad. Oh I'm sure you'll try to dispute this statement, but Osama sent his buddies to attack our country and Obama's buddy did the same. And there are more similarities, but they've already been well documented. Anyone who wants to see the truth can surely find it here on this forum.

Now you know how I feel...Its frustrating at times to talk to the unsaved about the things of God...There minds and hearts are blinded from recieiving the truth...It is written that the natural man cannot recieve the things of God, because he is spiritually discerned....Talking to the unsaved about spiritual things is sometimes like talking to an animal they hear you, but they just don't understand....Also I have noticed that if you talk to a little kid about God, and then go talk to an adult who considers themself highly educated, and intellectual that the little kid oftentimes can understand a whole lot better than the adult can.

Really is that simple. God is infinite mercy, if Hitler would have ask for forgiveness and repented God would have granted it. Even if you were to kill jesus right now, and you repented God will forgive you. Remember nothing is impossible for God. Jesus can easily bring himself to life, but he can't never saved your guilty soul if you don't ask for forgiveness.

I guarantee that there is more to this story than you are telling us. What caused this problem? I believe sin effects our DNA which in turn effects our gametes. Our selfishness wreaks havoc on the innocent. That is why God hates it.

Im a tall blonde blue-eyed woman and when I come face-to-face to a muslim man (and I do often) I assert myself and look him in the eyes. He doesn't like it I assure you. I even told one guy "Jesus IS allah" ...meaning God as you understand him to be...is Jesus. I see hatred. That's what islam is all about isn't it?

Good Christians: have you bought chick tracts to give instead of candy this halloween?
Instead of candy I give them these, they are SO happy with them, and we can still juin in with the fun of the festival, and spread the word of christ. It doesn't have to be about the devil and sin.
Here are some of the things I have heard them say;
“Wow, comic books!”
“Hey, they’ve got the good stuff here!”
“I’ve already got this one. Can I have that one instead?”

[The American Family Association whiners calling for a boycott of Ford because they took out an ad in a gay magazine.]

Ford and 3 Men in a Shower

Sales of Ford automobiles were flat in November, rising only 0.4 percent when compared to sales during November 2006. Since AFA began a boycott of Ford in March 2006, sales have dropped in 18 of the 21 months. Ford suffered a 12.1 percent loss for the year.

Ford continued to show support for the homosexual agenda, running a full page ad in the Dec. 07 - Jan. 08 homosexual publication OUT! The ad, for Ford's Volvo brand, was adjacent to a photo of three men taking a shower together. To see the ad and the shower photo, click here. (Warning! The photo is extremely graphic and offensive.)

AFA began the boycott of Ford after the company reneged on an agreement to stop supporting homosexual efforts. Ford reneged because of pressure from homosexual activists.

AFA asked Ford to remain neutral in the culture war, but Ford refused.

Please call your local dealer and tell him you are participating in the Ford boycott. To find your dealer, click the Take Action link below.

Please forward this to your family and friends!

And the World Economy is sinking deeper into a serious DEPRESSION --- idiots lament why. Anyone with half a brain realizes that GOD is simply stepping aside and saying, "GOD HIMSELF couldn't sink this ship? INDEED! Why should I bother when a mere iceberg will do the trick."

You mock GOD by mocking HIS institutions and GOD will let you hang yourself trying to run the show as you will.

Europe is EVIL, it's the work of the devil, made to collect your
souls and to turn you into brainless slaves of hell.

If you like Europe, you will lose your soul to be damned
for eternal torment in hell.Demons and devils will feast on your soul
for all eternity.

So don't travel to Europe to save your soul.

Or the holy inquisition will come for you and burn your flesh to save
your soul, because the devil must not collect more souls or nobody can
prevent Armageddon.

Europe is evil, travelling to Europe is BLASPHEMY , only heretics and
witches like Europe.And heretics and witches shall BURN !

Europe is HELL'S KITCHEN ! ! !

Macspo you are sooooooo right and I am with you and everyone else here.

You know what is really disgusting? Really, really, really disgusting is these homosexual pigs know they are commiting wrong because they are pround of thier sin, and they are licking thier chops at the prospect that they will very soon be able to have sex with children!

But you know what will be my biggest laugh against all who are acting that way?

When the Rapture takes all these young ones away out of thier grasp!

And God hopefully will not allow them who are born during the trib to become victims of them, by taking them out by the judgments.

This country is catering to a cesspool mind set, because that is where the one group's mind seems to be. Sad, very sad!

Lord bring on the Rapture!

Atheist women, why do you live your life offending/tempting angels?

I say offending/tempting because it appears that there are two ways to look at it. But as you live your life, angels look at you. And when they see you not wearing a head covering around males/not having long hair, they get offended/tempted by you.


So my question is, why do you offended/tempt angels of the Most High?

Christians: Is it possible the Holocaust was God's Warning?

We know Jesus was the Messiah. The Jews don't know He was. The Jews are God's Chosen people. Surely He would give them every kind of warning, big and small, to make them come to Christ to be saved, right? Maybe the reason they have been so severely treated is because they refuse to see Him as their Savior, which we know to be the truth. Most people like to take pity on them for what happened, but if this was a message to them? So what do you think?

As for counting one angel or two angels as a contradiction. Angels are spirits and can appear and disappear instantly.

[The 'Christians Against Evil/Occult Toys and Games' Club!]


I get disturbed by how many things geared to children are satanically influenced and potentially spiritually harmful to them. Even more disturbing is how many Christian parents buy these things for their kids without a second thought.

This is intended as a wake-up call, to report toys, games, or even books that are intended for kids that are probably not right for Christians. (Please don't discuss Harry Potter here, though- there's plenty on that subject elsewhere.)

If you happen upon something that you think belongs in this category, feel free to describe it, but also explain why you think it's wrong. Otherwise we may be left scratching our heads, unless it's obviously something evil.

Also allow for differences of opinion: what you think is wrong may not be to someone else. We do have freedom in Christ, but this is meant as a 'heads-up' for anyone involved with children.

I'll start with one:

BELLA SARA

I learned about Bella Sara by accident- I was flipping through a magazine on collectibles and there was a full-page ad about it. I looked over the artwork and got a creepy feeling, so I went online to learn more about it.

In case you haven't heard, it's a trading card game for girls featuring horses and an uplifting message. This may seem harmless, but wait. First of all, the messages, like 'Believe in yourself!' are clearly not Christian. They are intended to build self-esteem, but with a focus on self, certainly not God. Girls can certainly use self-esteem, but there are better ways.

A bigger concern is the artwork- mythical horses, monster horses, fairy horses, horses with magical powers...many are taken directly out of pagan mythology and even states such. I was surprised that I could find no Christian ministry speaking out against this, but on the contrary- some were speaking favorably about it. I can't see how any believer can be so blind about this lie from the pit!

I don't think Bella Sara is appropriate for Christian kids- in fact, it presents an interest in the occult; combining magic, mystery, mythology, and horses. I think it's very spiritually dangerous for kids.

To be honest. God does not like curiosity. We were not created to conquer the universe. The universe was made for man, and not man for the universe. God said the earth was a sphere and that is all you need to know.

Quote# 49707

I serve as an elder at the church I attend, and from time to time I will be called up to give a message or teach a Bible study. During these times, the devil always afflicts me with a gas attack, leading to obvious discomfort and embarassment while I am preaching my message. This also seems to happen during social gatherings and when I'm in a meeting with our pastor or other leaders of the church. Often, the rumblings from my gastro-intestinal tract sound like muttered swear words or like voices mocking Jesus. I am not the only one who has noticed this. I suffered an attack in an elevator at a conference I went to a few months ago, and one of the men in the elevator thought that he had heard me swearing at him and using an expletive involving the name of Christ. A sulfuric stench always accompanies these attacks and sometimes they can be extremely painful.
