Exposing the Darkness Behind Halloween, Day 1 - What Fellowship Has Light with Darkness?

Awakened to Deliver – Exposing the Darkness Behind Halloween, Day 1 - What Fellowship Has Light with Darkness?Key Verse: Ephesians 5:11 — “Do not participate in the useless deeds of darkness, but instead even expose them.”Episode Highlights• Halloween may appear harmless, but its roots trace back to the pagan festival Samhain (“SAH-win”), marked by fear of spirits and offerings to false gods.• God commands His people to reject all forms of divination, witchcraft, and communication with the dead (Deut. 18:10-12).• Fear ruled the heart of pagan tradition, but “God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and love and a sound mind” (2 Tim. 1:7).• Even today, Halloween glorifies fear, death, and darkness — the very things Jesus conquered at the cross.• Light and darkness cannot mix (2 Cor. 6:14); Satan still disguises himself as an angel of light (2 Cor. 11:14).• We’re not called to condemn people, but to expose deception and lead them to truth (Eph. 5:11).• Deliverance from celebrating darkness is not legalism — it’s transformation and renewal (Rom. 12:2).• When the Church walks in holiness and separation from the world, spiritual power and authority return.Scripture ReferencesEphesians 5:11Deuteronomy 18:10-12Isaiah 8:192 Timothy 1:72 Corinthians 6:142 Corinthians 11:14Leviticus 20:6John 3:19-21Romans 12:21 John 4:4Stay ConnectedFind all Jeff’s links, resources, and ways to support the ministry here:👉 Awakened Bible Ministries LinktreeSupport This MinistryAwakened to Deliver is listener-supported!
