Christians and Halloween
It's this time of the year, the spooky month, me personally i like this time of the year... i dont know why, but I like the spookiness, maing pumpkin latern(even that im 22...) and i even enjoy watching scary things this time of the year. I don't live in usa so we dont celebrate halloween here, but i would like to dress as something scary and go to a party or have fun somewhere with others. But then some christians say that "real christians shouldn't celebrate Halloween cause its demonic, its preaching satan" and it makes me so angry and it makes me rumminate... How dressing up as a man made scary creature that doesnt even exist would be satanic? How thats preaching the devil? Some christians judging so quickly, if death is involved in something, its satanic, its preaching the devil... As i said i dont live in usa so i just saw halloween in movies, anf i never saw anyone preaching the devil. Of course if someone does a ritual or satanic things, you should avoid that, but dressing up in a scary costume and have fun with people isnt bad, i dont understand why people say its satanic... Christians shouldnt be afraid of the devil, the Bible says to avoid things that preaches the evil(that would be rituals and witchcrafts) but nowhere says to be afraid of the devil, cause God is way more powerful then anything... remember he made them too...And christians always come with the "God says do what is good and lovely" well do you go out and harm people? No yall having fun, maybe there are some satanist who celebrates this as the day of the devil but for other people this is just a day when you dress up for something and you have fun... Its like alcohol, the Bible never said to never ever drink, just dont be an alcoholic, this is the same, dont join rituals and witchcrafts, but you can have fun in a respectful way to others, and if this triggers you to be afraid of the devil then okay you can skip it but dont judge others as satanists if they celebrate it... I know this will be a big obsession for me this month cause as a said i like to watch scary things before halloween and i like the whole thing but since i became a christian its very triggering... Also i want to hear your opinion, expecially from people in usa
