ViewPoint on Halloween
Halloween (originated: all saints day) was a Catholic festival many years ago. However, Global Revival Christian TV Centre does not agree to this festival and its purpose.
Nowadays, people celebrate Halloween because they can make up, dress up and go to parties. Some amusement parks use marrying the dead to attract people. Marrying dead people is a Chinese traditional culture. This is totally opposite to Christianity.
GRCTV's viewpoint is we do not encourage and do not support this festival nor its event nor games. The devil is packaging Halloween in order to let more people think that celebrating is alright. It is not only targeting unbelievers but also for Christians.
A catholic artist acted as a Chinese witch in a hong kong amusement park. She asked a priest whether it is good for her to act and the priest replied her said, "If it is just acting, it is okay." We, as a Christian ministry, strong disagree and disapprove this idea. Halloween should not be participate by christians. God hates devils. Devils destroy the restoration from God.
There were reports from recent years about some people were terrified after going to Halloween's events. Fear is not from God and we should have the fear of the Lord. So Halloween should be a don't to every Christians.
When we face invitations, we try to refuse and pray for them. We should stand firm in the Word of Christ. We pray that all Christians will stand firm and be the light in this century.
