   The below is still the case; it is better to be in the truth then to   
   slander and spread it as a wholesale practice.  It is harder to ask   
   forgiveness and repent of the slander:   
      
   >Sad to report; friend james has yet to ask forgiveness for wholesale   
   >slander against christian churches and to repent of it.  Read below as the   
   >evil slanderous words tumble from his lips/fingertips.  Read to discover   
   >not one example can be found blessing "trick and treat" as requested:

   >>>>How interesting, can friend james provide web info in which any church   
   >>>>proclaims this day  as a formal observation of the  antics of the   
   "trick/treat

   >>>>times in history participating?  If not; this is mere anti-church slander,   
   >>>>for which friend james should beg forgiveness, no?   
   >>>>   
   >>>>Friend james do speak to this example; easily found on the web among   
   >>>>many others:

   >>>>the one day of the year Christians get to support Satan, all with   
   >>>>>most churches' blessings.   
   >>>>>   
   >>>>>Time to esp let the children learn to support Satan also. It's fun.   
   >>>>>Break out the skeleton costume, the witches' costume, the devil's   
   >>>>>costume, the vampire costume, the voodoo doll costume, the zombie   
   >>>>>costume, the ghost sheet, etc.   
   >>>>>   
   >>>>>This is Satan's house to house work. How many go to the doors dressed   
   >>>>>as an angel? Jesus said at Mt 24:14 that a Kingdom message would be   
   >>>>>preached to the whole world. JW's do that many ways, esp house to   
   >>>>>house, just like Jesus did in the 1st century. So Satan does not want   
   >>>>>to be left out of the picture. He has his human  servants   
   >>>>>(unknowingly) spread his demonic messages like "TRICK or treat", and   
   >>>>>'see my demonic costume'.

   >>>>>Yes, this is Satan's favorite day. He even gets some people involved

   >>>>>Because of the dangers associated with getting candy for strangers,   
   >>>>>some churches have Halloween parties at their church. The demons   
   >>>>>should feel right at home there because of the "teachings of demons"   
   >>>>>that they regularly do.  (see 1 Tim 4:1-3)   
   >>>>>   
   >>>>>But no matter what is said, or what Scriptures are quoted, some people   
   >>>>>are determined to celebrate Halloween with their children no matter   
   >>>>>what. In most cases they see it as harmless fun and are not going to   
   >>>>>deprive their children of it.   
   >>>>>   
   >>>>>But do they want to deprive their children of life eternal? God holds   
   >>>>>the parents responsible for their children. So what does that mean?   
   >>>>>See for yourself at 1 Cor 7:14.
