Creepy. I always wondered why childrens stories were always so dark. I thought it was to educate children against evil. But maybe it was to install fear. Like Hansel and Gretel and little red riding hood.
They're all pretty weird.

I love reading old fairy tales but Hans Christian Anderson is probably my favorite author right now. Some of them are Christian. If you read the old, old stories yourself, they are nothing close to Disney.

I don't usually read anything that came after the 1930s. (Besides theology)

I've read some of Hans Christian Andersons stories but not all. He is super creative. I'm always fascinated by creative people.

But boy oh boy if you want to hear a scary story you should have been in my nightmare last night. I mean wow. And it was super creative like beyond my creative abilities. Really threw me off guard.

LOL, I had another dream a while back that was similar but without the creativeness. And in that dream I had a spider on the small of my back and couldn't move to get it off. And when I woke up my back was shaking kinda violently like I was having a seizure or something. I think it was some form of shock. The Dr said it wasn't a seizure cause then I wouldn't have remembered.

But I was on a tropical beach and standing on a deck. The water was beautiful and blue and the deck was glass so I could see the water and deep into it clearly. I thought to myself "I can see all the fish" so I looked around and caught view of this flounder like fish and he was just sitting on the top of the water staring up at me with his mouth open. So I tricked a bug off the deck railing into flying away from me and it landed in the water. The fish swam over and ate it. I was like "cool it worked". Then the fish opened its mouth and the bug was still in it's mouth and it let out this flower which then floated up and landed in my hair. I was like "gross" and I tried to get it out of my hair and when I did it landed on my hand. I tried to shake it off. I would have succeeded but it turned into a bug with sharp spikes for legs which it used to attach itself to my hand. I was like "what the..." and fear started to sink in. I grabbed it to pull it off and it just hung on tighter. I thought this thing is going to do something evil to me. I really pulled and it just adjusted for a tighter hold. I finally managed to get it off and it flew up to my head and latched on there. The same thing. Then I woke up.

Anyways, my nightmares are usually about being stalked by lions or Jurassic Park dinosaurs. And I just thought this dream was more creative.

All hallows eve is a Christian tradition.

Here you have it. You just revealed it yourself, it is a tradition. Not scriptural in any way, shape or form. When I see the word tradition I see man-made doctrines. Just like Easter and Christmas. Study the origins of these pagan days. You will be horrified and alarmed as to how they can even be referred to in anyway with Yahweh and our Messiah. Witches and the occult actually get upset with Christians for taking over many of the practices they do on these days. Please Yahweh open our eyes!!!

Shalom

I don't use the term Easter anymore, I say resurrection, the rest of the non English speaking world use the term Pasqua or something like that I don't speak Latin, so excuse me if I spelled it wrong, but term Pasqua, actually means Passover, which is when Chris was Crucified, during Passover.

And Christmas was taken from Saturnalia, Saturn worship, Satan.

I take it back. It bothers me greatly. I hate that you and others went through that. I don’t celebrate Halloween, never really have, but if I did, I would quit out of heartbreak over what you have gone through.
I do still like to see cute little bunnies and adorable princesses though. I can’t help it.

I suggest reading Daniel 13 the story of Susana to build faith & trust in God!

Did Yahweh ever command to observe this day? No! Did Yeshua ever teach about or command to observe this day? No! Did the apostles in their writings ever teach or command to observe this day? No!

Give me book, chapter and verse within context in Yahweh's word where Yahweh ever commands this day to be observed.
Outside of Yahweh's word is the doctrines of men and demons. I do not care what denomination you are from as all denominations have their man made doctrines.

Do not add to Yahweh's word and do not take away from Yahweh's word. This are Yahweh's words not mine.
Yeshua Himself quoting Deut says man shall not live by bread alone but by every word of Yahweh. I don't know about you but I want to live. Only stick to what is written and within context. Not the context of a denomination or men's doctrines. It is not that hard. Stick to what is written.
Look at the fruits. The fruits of halloween are all in the flesh it is all about you, teaching kids about fulfilling the flesh i.e. candy, dressing up etc it is all about self.
Yahweh's ways of worship are ALWAYS about Him and worshipping Him, honoring Him, glorifying Him, lifting up and acknowledging His name. Not about us and what we can get, or how we look, or about our gratification. Is any thought given to Yahweh at all on this disgusting abominable day?

Shalom

matt 16:18-19 Matt 18:18
Bound on earth bound in heaven

why does it have to be the “Bible alone”?

The teaching of the apostles is the Christian rule of faith! Acts 2:42 1 Tim 3:15

why would you have a problem with a Christian feast that glorifies God???

Well… it’s plain to see, right? I mean, not that it was for sure a God dream, but it’s plain to see what you were dreaming about, right?

What do you think it meant? Cause I have no idea.

im not saying it meant something, as in it needs to be interpreted or was a dream from God, I’m just saying it’s plain to see what you were dreaming about. Something evil tried to attach to your hand and then it tried to attach to your head.

I checked with God already and he said it was just a dream and meant nothing.

I didn’t give my thoughts on any other part of the dream.

I am a little curious though devin, did you read a post of mine recently about a round table where a doctor was talking about maybe putting a vaccine on a disc/bandaid with sharp minute little spikes you could barely feel, and attaching it to the back of your hand to deliver a vaccine?

If you read that post, I think you were just dreaming about that because you’d recently read it.

No I hadn't read it. But recently I have heard dreams from other members and they totally applied to me instead of them. Even the interpretations people gave them were incorrect. Two such dreams I heard from different members directly and literally applied to my life. I didn't tell them of this because I didn't think it would be well met.

So maybe the dream was meant for someone else instead of me.

Perhaps it was some sort of beast mark dream? Although the bug didn't attack my forehead. It was the top and back of my head.

I’m fighting the urge to ask how God told you that….lol. But you’re right, derailing thread.

We don't have any good reason to engage with darkness.

We just don't.

"It's only for fun." Okay. Why do you have to do what everyone else does? Why not find something else to do?

The angels that chased after darkness fell from Heaven and now they're called demons.

who said to engage with darkness?

Romans 13:7
Render therefore to all their dues: tribute to whom tribute is due; custom to whom custom; fear to whom fear; honour to whom honour. (is due)

blessed be God in His angels and in His saints!

2 Thessalonians 1:10
When he shall come to be glorified in hissaints, and to be admired in all them that believe (because our testimony among you was believed) in that day.

Genesis 14:20
And blessed be the most high God!…
