Nothing to Fear on Halloween

Psalm 23:4; Colossians 2:15

For Further Study

Were you familiar with the pagan histories of holidays like Halloween (and even Christmas and Easter)? Does this history have any bearing on how or even whether to celebrate them?

What was Paul’s approach to “disputable” matters? (Romans 14; I Corinthians 8) What might be some other areas of dispute that Believers can disagree on?

Is it hard to NOT be judgmental of people who have a different outlook than you – like participating in Halloween activities or not?

Do you find yourself frightened, or at least intimidated, by the idea of dark spiritual forces? What’s the difference between a healthy respect and fear of these things?

How do dark spiritual forces compare with other things we might fear that God says we don’t need to fear? (Maybe list a few of these.)

How can we live in the victory of Jesus over dark forces?
