Halloween Is Satan Worship

    The Christian View of Halloween

    Halloween is derived from pagan; demon worship, animal sacrifices, and human cannibalism.

    Demon Worship of Canaan

    The numerous false-gods of Canaan were actually demons following Satan, given the Semitic title Ba’al (Baal), which is roughly translated as lord and master.

    Almighty God repeatedly disciplined unfaithful Israel when they fell into Satan’s snare of Baal worship. Num. 25:1-5 KJV;

    And Israel abode in Shittim, and the people began to commit whoredom with the daughters of Moab. And they called the people unto the sacrifices of their gods: and the people did eat, and bowed down to their gods. And Israel joined himself unto Baal–peor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel. And the LORD said unto Moses, Take all the heads of the people, and hang them up before the LORD against the sun, that the fierce anger of the LORD may be turned away from Israel. And Moses said unto the judges of Israel, Slay ye every one his men that were joined unto Baal–peor.

    Unbelieving Israelites often copied the pagan practices of Canaanites by offering sacrifices, in High Places and arboreal groves, to Baal demons. 2 Ki. 17:15-18 KJV, Jud. 2:11-13 KJV;

    And they rejected his statutes, and his covenant that he made with their fathers, and his testimonies which he testified against them; and they followed vanity, and became vain, and went after the heathen that were round about them, concerning whom the LORD had charged them, that they should not do like them. And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal. And they caused their sons and their daughters to pass through the fire, and used divination and enchantments, and sold themselves to do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger. Therefore the LORD was very angry with Israel, and removed them out of his sight: there was none left but the tribe of Judah only.

    And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim: And they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and provoked the LORD to anger. And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.

    Elijah and the Priests of Baal

    Faithful Prophets and rulers of Israel who destroyed the High Places and Canaanite demon idols were commended and blessed.

    1 Kings 18 describes the epic confrontation between the Prophet Elijah and the blood-letting priests of Baal.

    Despite this resounding defeat at the hands of a Prophet of God, the idolatrous worship of Canannite Baals gradually spread through heathen people of the world, with local adaptations.

    It’s exponents in Western Europe were the Gaelic-Celtic tribes, with their priestly Druids adding their own blend of magical incantations, spells, and fortune-telling, to keep people in bondage to sin.

    Pagan Romans Disgusted by English Paganism

    Julius Caesar described the Celtic Druid “wicker man” practice of human sacrifice, where multiple victims are imprisoned within a wicker lattice shaped like a man, and slowly burned alive. (See Julius Caesar, Commentaries. De bello gallico)

    When the Roman Empire conquered the British Isles in first Century AD, the Pagan Emperor Julius Caesar made note of the preponderance of Druidry, Baal worship, and blood sacrifices.

    Evidence of Druid Human Sacrifice

    Modern druids attempt to air-brush their vile history by claiming Caesar wrote “propaganda”, rather than what he witnessed. However, modern archaeology has confirmed numerous sites in the UK were used for ritual human sacrifice. Other Roman and Greek writers also describe the druid affinity for divination, and magical spells.

    Greek historian, Diodorus Siculus, wrote of druid blood sacrifices:

    These men predict the future by observing the flight and calls of birds, and by the sacrifice of holy animals: All orders of society are in their power, and in very important matters they prepare a human victim, plunging a dagger into his chest; by observing the way his limbs convulse as he falls, and the gushing of his blood, they are able to read the future.

    Numerous peat bog preserved bodies in England have been shown to have been victims of human sacrifice, such as those recently discovered at Wilmslow, Cheshire, in the Lindow Moss peat bogs.

    Modern Druid Yuppies

    Today, in the UK, there is a revival of druid paganism, despite its embarrassing history, which adherents try to whitewash.

    Druid hot-beds occur in South West and Northern England, where local tree-hugging druids gather periodically for demon worship; in Cornwall, Stonehenge, at Pendle Hill, and Alderley Edge, to re-enact their pagan demonic religious ceremonies, and arboreal fornication.

    I personally know professionals caught up in this outdoor demonic ritualism.

    Proof of Druid Cannibalism in the UK

    Archaeological evidence, that Celtic Druids in South West England indulged in ritualistic cannibalism, has been reported by the University of Bristol.

    The University study states, … the most interesting find was an adult human femur, which had been split longitudinally and the bone marrow scraped out. This practice, which cannot happen accidentally, is considered to be very good evidence of cannibalistic activity. University of Bristol Press release; “Cannibalistic Celts discovered in South Gloucestershire”.

    National Geographic corroborated the scientific reports showing that the sacrificial victim of Druid priests, unearthed at Alveston, Gloucester, UK, was strangled, then his head was violently smashed. His long bones appear to have been broken open to consume the marrow.

    Catholicism in Ireland

    When the Roman Catholic cult spread its tentacles to Ireland, and Wales, they eagerly adapted their rituals to attract the native Baal worshippers to join their cult.

    They simply recycled their Babylonian idolatry and shamanism to entice gullible Europeans into their form of thinly-veiled demon worship.

    The occupying authorities, repelled by the prevalence of human sacrifice, outlawed it, and stamped out druidry, for a time, but it resurfaced after the Roman Empire collapsed.

    Catholics Made Halloween: Not Christians

    The masterstroke of the Catholic cult was the transformation of one of the Catholic traditional “holy days”, “All Saints Day”, into a festival the Irish Celts could readily embrace.

    Nominally “All Saints Day” was a time, each November, when dead Catholic “saints” were worshipped. It was used to promote the false-teaching of “purgatory”, and extract payment of “indulgences” from their gullible flock. The event was re-named “All Hallows Evening” teaching adherents to venerate dead saints and relatives, and to appease “wandering spirits”. This complied neatly with traditional Celtic sacrifices, demon rituals, and associated revelry, and so quickly became popular in Western Europe. The date chosen was October 31st. now known as “Halloween”.

    Spooky demonic rituals were devised that conformed to local traditions, involving candles, offerings, and sacrifices to “ward-off evil spirits”.

    This is the occult pagan basis for Halloween pumpkin-carving, candle-burning, and trick-or-treating, practised today.

    Ignorant adults indoctrinate naive children with the principles of Baal worship, on the eroneous basis that “Halloween is merely harmless fun”.

    Christians realise that Catholicism is a blatant counterfeit of Bible-Christianity, and they take no part in Halloween celebrations, other than to denounce them, and point sinners to the Living Christ.
