If you are wondering what type of decorative items you could use for October, a true believer will never use any type of ghosts, skeletons, or skulls. Anything related with death is a clear indication that in your home you approve of participating in evil, darkness, witchcraft, or anything that has to do with invocations to dead people or killing animals or sacrifices dedicated to Satan.
A person who claims that Halloween is his or her favorite holiday is openly saying that nothing else is more important than that. Not Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, not even the birthday of a loved one, Independence Day, nothing else is more important than participating in a diabolical activity. Come on! That night is not about family and fun. Believing that is really absurd.
Children do not need candy. We all like candy, but we don’t need candy. Much less, children do not need that particular night of social entertainment, as some people want to put it. Children need education, direction, guidance. Not another way to entertain them.
Any responsible parent should entertain their children periodically in an intelligent way, as they check what those kids are watching on TV and on their phones when they are alone. If anything, what children need is true love in their homes, and to go to church every week.
There are wonderful things that you can use to decorate your home. Do not be another naive or deceived person by inviting demons to come to your house. Are you intentionally asking satanic influence to come and possess the minds of your kids? Think!
There are excellent ways for kids to have a weekly way to be entertained and to socialize with everyone, not just with kids. Parents need to do their job when the kids are little to guide them, love them, educate them, and entertain them. But telling yourself that your kids have to socialize with demon possessed people, promoting anything evil, and of course, including endorsing homosexuality. Really? Think!
A devil’s worshiper, or someone totally deceived, can’t see the importance of true love in our homes. Not once in a while, but every day, having dinner together, talking about school, projects, and the sports and arts that your kids are part of. You and your family need a true social life with other families. Have you forgotten that?
The true love in your home is what you do every day. Communicating with your kids, giving them affection and advice about the challenges they are facing. Loving your children is about spending time with them and listening to them, that is how you can understand them better, and kids love parents that listen to them. Engage with your kids. Be part of their lives, and lead them to become good Christians, and true active church members, involved in your church.
The happiness in a family is not about a night with a custom and candy. Maybe the problem is that adults are just using another excuse to force themselves to smile and laugh because their own personal lives are miserable, which happens to anyone without the Lord God in their hearts. True love comes only from our Lord God. It begins with you, dad and mom. No matter what happened in the past, you can still make changes today. You need to come back to church and bring your kids with you.
