counterfeit—an imitation of something valuable or important with the intention to deceive or defraud. ⁣ ⁣ Should Christians celebrate Halloween? ⁣ ⁣ Let your stance & convictions be based on honoring & prioritizing the Lord in every way possible. ⁣ ⁣ 1John 4: 18, "There is no fear in love; but perfect love cast out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love." ⁣ ⁣ Why would you invite in, pay for, participate in, or pursue what Jesus came to cast out?⁣ ⁣ Counterfeit fear doesn't draw us closer to Jesus.
