Halloween
ARE AMERICAN HOLIDAYS IN LINE WITH THE WORD OF GOD SERIES
Halloween, are you wary of this day?
Parents: Children who spend time with their favorite people are the happiest!
We, as parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles could take the focus off of ourselves and walk the neighborhood with the children in our care. Jesus loves and blesses our children!
Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. —Psalm 127:3
And they were bringing children to Him so that He might touch them, but the disciples rebuked them. But when Jesus saw this, He was indignant and said to them, “Permit the children to come to Me; do not hinder them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. “Truly I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child will not enter it at all.” And He took them in His arms and began blessing them, laying His hands on them. —Mark 10:13-16
At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. —Matthew 18:1-3

(Note: We at New Light do not agree with costumes that represent anything the Bible talks against such as the devil, demon, and witch costumes. There is no such thing, according to scripture, as a “good” witch.)
For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places. —Ephesians 6:12 NIV
