Halloween Day in 2008 is Friday, October 31st
Halloween Day in 2009 is Saturday, October 31st
Halloween Day in 2010 is Sunday, October 31st
Halloween a night filled with Folklore, Superstition, Fright, and Fiction, but it does not have to be that way! Every Day and every Night belong to the Lord Jesus Christ and Halloween is no exception!
Christians everywhere are rejecting Halloween's message of Death, Disobedience, and Despair and instead are using this opportunity to proclaim the Truth about God's Love for mankind and about His Biblical plan of Life, Hope, and Salvation for us in Jesus Christ.
Halloween as a yearly October 31st event has changed and morphed throughout the years. In short there are two sides to the traditional Old Europe October 31st event. The one side of events involved the crop harvest and land negotiation events while the other side involved the occult and witchcraft/manipulation events.
Harvest:
Traditionally October 31st was the end of the fall harvest and the end of the year as October 31st often acted as our December 31st does now. In ancient Europe individual people did not own land only the king or baron and a select few people owned the land. The people worked the land and had to give the majority of their crops to the landowner each year. It was on October 31st that the last of the crops were collected by the landowner and very importantly it was also the day when the amount of payment for the next year's labor would be negotiated and determined. It was in the negotiating process between the landowner and the workers that the harvest festival evolved into a witchcraft pagan festival.
Witchcraft:
Witchcraft is the art of manipulation and each year as the workers would negotiate with the landowners both sides looked for ways to manipulate and gain an advantage over the other. Among the first areas of witchcraft to emerge on October 31st was the practice of divination, attempting to determine the future and particularly the outcome of the crop harvest of the next year. Would the crop seeds produce, would there be a drought, flood, insects, infection, blight, fire, theft or possibly there could be an abundant crop? The common way to guess the future was to kill an animal, usually a goat, and make guesses based on various parts of the dying and dead animal, exactly like tea reading the pattern at the bottom of a tea cup. With the killing of animals October 31st began to give way to more death, torture and outright Satanic activities.
Modern:
In modern times as Halloween came to America from Europe it has been a combination of the Harvest and Witchcraft (trick or treat) themes. Most notably as with most occasions Halloween in America has turned into a commercialized event by adding the sale of candy, costumes, ornaments and gadgetry. Currently Halloween is splitting off into the two separate realms. The Harvest Celebrations celebrated by Churches and families give thanks to God by acknowledging His providing for our needs. Others opt for the spooky, witchcraft themes that leave God out of the Halloween night events.
New Testament: Pharmakeia (5331) "Pharmacy" medicine, drug, altered state, manipulation, magic.
Old Testament: Lachash (3907) whisper, mumble, gossip, cast a spell, charmer.
Verses - Deuteronomy 18:10; 2nd Kings 9:22; 2nd Chronicles 33:6; Micah 5:12; Nahum 3:4
First Use: Exodus 22:18 Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live. {While living in the flesh everyone has the opportunity to repent, but once physical death, then comes eternal judgment and God will not allow a witch to remain and live in His presence.}
1st Samuel 15:23 For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.
Psalms 41:7 All that hate me whisper together against me: against me they do devise my hurt.
Ecclesiastes 10:20 Curse not the king, no not in thy thought and curse not the rich in thy bedchamber: for a bird of the air (evil demonic spirit) shall carry the voice and that which hath wings shall tell the matter.
Galatians 5:20,21 Now the works of the flesh are manifest (revealed), which are these; Adultery (unfaithfulness), fornication (uncovered), uncleanness (unmoral), lasciviousness (incontentment), idolatry (worldly desires), witchcraft (manipulation), hatred (hostility), variance (quarrel), emulations (jealousy), wrath (anger), strife (factions), seditions (disunion), heresies (unbiblical principals), envyings (ill-will), murders (ending life), drunkenness (worldly influences), revellings (letting loose) and such like: of which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
Witchcraft is the practice and art of manipulation. This is carried out as people try in selfishness to get their way, to fulfill their own various desires and whims.
Witchcraft is the opposite of grace. Grace is giving someone the freedom to be themselves. witchcraft is the art of using manipulations, threats, situations, even rewards and promises as a means for manipulation, therefore placing someone in bondage and slavery to accomplish the certain desires of the manipulator. Witchcraft is a type of a spoken curse. An oath is a spoken commitment to perform a good deed, a curse is a spoken commitment to do evil and harm.
Matthew 5:37 But let your communication be, Yea (yes), yea; Nay (no), nay; for whatsoever is more (manipulation/witchcraft) than this commeth of evil.
This does not preclude conversation, debate, discussion... it means to let other people have their own convictions, don't insist on changing people's minds.
Satan plays with a heavy hand and it usually isn’t very long before Satan has overplayed his hand and revealed himself for the bondage, danger, and destruction that he is. Desiring to leave the occult is the best thing. People are created by God to have a relationship with God there are no exceptions to this. People desire to leave the occult but are not sure how to go about it, some even wonder if they can. Rest assured there is a certain way out!
Isaiah 28:16-18 Therefore thus saith the LORD God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation Stone (Jesus), a tried Stone, a precious corner Stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste. Judgment also will I lay to the line, and Righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overthrow the hiding place and your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand ...
Here are a few suggestions.
God Bless you,
David Anson Brown
Isaiah 10:27 ... and the yoke (of bondage) shall be destroyed because of the anointing (of God).
The Lord's Prayer that Jesus gave to us His followers as a model to pray (not always word for word as the prayer is different both time Jesus gives it [Matthew 6:9-13, Luke 11:2-4]) includes in it a model for spiritual deliverance and protection. God as our Father is also our protector and our request to "deliver us from evil" are two main themes in this powerful prayer of deliverance, fellowship and well being for each individual Christian.
Matthew 6:9-13 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
The anointing (presence of God) breaks every yoke and causes every evil, demonic, unclean spirit to depart.
The anointing from God is the actual Spiritual presence of God the Holy Spirit. It is the presence of the Holy God and of His holy Angels that are actually going to protect us. The physical words, incantations, customs and traditions of humans do not protect us in the Spiritual realm it is only the Holy Spirit that protects us and gives us Spiritual life in the Spiritual realm.
Look for God's actual presence in your life when confronted with Spiritual warfare and settle for nothing short of deliverance from demonic entities and having victorious and joyous fellowship with God.

Ephesians 2:8-10 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Hebrews 9:14 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?
Note: The Progression of the Holy Spirit is to bring people from spiritual death into eternal life - the Holy Spirit progression leads people into the knowledge that Jesus Christ is a man to be revered (Luke 19:10), then that Jesus is the Prophet to listen to and to obey (Luke 24:19) and then concluding that Jesus is Almighty God the giver of eternal life to be worshiped and adored (Luke 24:52). One progression of truth and reality --> Jesus Christ --> is Man --> is Prophet --> is Almighty God.
Note: The progression of Satanism (Witchcraft) is to bring people from physical life into eternal death - the manipulation is to start the initiate in good works, man centered deeds used to give an outward appearance of social acceptability like environmental causes or any of the many social issues. Helping and supporting the Palestinians would also be another good example of an occult work that seems at first to be good though when examined are they really helping and making things better in the world, no they are actually perpetuating global terrorism. Then when the initiate tires of trying to get ahead by using good works that aren’t really all that good the initiate is instructed in the manipulation arts in attempting to get ahead in society by controlling and manipulating using various amounts of lying, cheating, stealing and deceiving. Then in a further attempt to get ahead the follower enters the Witchcraft and Conjure arts (spells, witchcraft) in order to attempt to get ahead in society. The progression for more power and authority then continues into the vile sex manipulation the so called sex magic. The vile sex manipulation then ultimately gives way to the end form of all Witchcraft and Satanic power and authority, the blood sacrifices and human death. One progression of deceit --> works --> manipulation --> spells --> vile sex --> blood sacrifice death.

Revival Hymn a Call to Action Video & Mp3 Downloads
Such a man, whether preacher or pew dweller, is appalled at the shrinking authority of the Church in the present drama of cruelty in the world. And he cringes with sorrow that men turn a deaf ear to the Gospel and willingly risk eternal hell in the process. Under this complex burden, his heart is crushed to tears. The true man of God is heartsick, grieved at the worldliness of the Church, grieved at the blindness of the Church, grieved at the corruption in the Church, grieved at the toleration of sin in the Church, grieved at the prayerlessness in the Church. He is disturbed that the corporate prayer of the Church no longer pulls down the strongholds of the devil. He is embarrassed that the Church folks no longer cry in their despair before a devil-ridden, sin-mad society, "Why could we not cast him out?" (Matt. 17:19).

Gnostic Heresy
Church Heresy
These podcasts brilliantly detail how the Christian non-standard "Preterist" teaching when carried out to a conclusion can easily become Heresy particularly the "oneness" heresy where all religions are considered equal and one. These teachings are a great example of how to improve on all Christian teachings in all areas and how all teaching and preaching is to be strictly Bible based, well researched and well thought-out in content, presentation and conclusions.
Preterist 'end time' teaching is like the variant Christian group the 7th Day Adventist where they are Christians in their basic doctrinal (Jesus is God, Jesus is the Savior) teachings but they depart from the Church norms in their extended teachings. The problem with 7th Day Adventist customs and teachings is that they replace a personal relationship with Jesus Christ with their pattern of a works and a money (tithe) based system. The particular problem with the Preterist teaching is that it regulates the activities of Jesus Christ to the past while neglecting Jesus Christ in the present and almost completely ignoring the future.
Two Seperate 'End Times' Teachings of Jesus
Matthew 21-23 [Jesus teaching in the Temple]
And Jesus went into the temple of God, and cast out all them that sold and bought in the temple, and overthrew the tables of the money changers, and the seats of them that sold doves, And said unto them ... Matthew 23 Then spake Jesus to the multitude, and to His disciples (followers), Saying, ... Verily I say unto you, All these things (rejection and crucifixion of Christ, destruction of Jerusalem, scattering-diaspora) shall come upon this [current] generation.Matthew 24-25 [Jesus teaching at the Mount of Olives, a new location and a new teaching]
And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: ... And as He sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto Him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these (Kingdom of Jesus) things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming (in power, 2nd coming), and of the end of the world? And Jesus answered and said unto them, ... Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch [Jewish Temple in Jerusalem - yet to be rebuilt] is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves (fig leaves, man's religious covering and activities, no fruit), ye know that summer is nigh: So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these [Jerusalem Jewish Temple] things, know that it (2nd coming) is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you, This [future] generation shall not pass, till all these (end times) things be fulfilled.
Just like the Christian Church needs the information in the Old Testament the Martyred Saints of Revelation and the end time Jews in Israel will need the information of the New Testament. The Bible is completely written and finished there is no more information or material to be added to the Bible. There will not be a Martyred Saints of Revelation addition to the Bible. The future Martyred Saints of Revelation and the end time Jews of Israel (Judea) will need to know the Biblical information and Biblical events of their day. For example in Matthew 24:16 in order to flee to the mountains when the antichrist is revealed in the temple in Jerusalem they will have to know the New Testament so the New Testament is also written to them like the Old Testament is also written to the Christian Church.
** It is the position of the Basic Christian material that the Gospel of John is the primary gospel to the Christian Church. The Gospels of Matthew, Luke and Mark are Gospels that also include "End Time" information intended for both the Jews and for the Martyred Saints of Revelation, two groups that are separate from the born again Christian (raptured) Church. The error of the Preterist is in applying prophetic information in Revelation, Daniel, Isaiah, Matthew, Luke and other material that is intended for the application of the Martyred Saints and for the Jewish people (Israel) to the Christian Church. The Christian Church is not mentioned in end times Bible passages, the Church is mentioned in the rapture (1 Thessalonians 4:16-18), as the Church is raptured (taken up) into heaven and is in heaven during the tribulation events that are mentioned throughout both the Old and New Testaments of the Bible. It is the Martyred Saints of Revelation and the Jews that are dealing with and contending with the great end time events.
The three New Testament groups (Church, Jews, Martyred Saints) are each represented at the Mount of Transfiguration with Jesus (Matthew 17:1-2) where Jesus was glorified in their presence. These are the only groups of redeemed-sinless people that will ever be in the glorified presences of Jesus Christ.
Matthew 17:1-2 And after six days Jesus taketh Peter [Jews][ Galatians 2:7 the gospel of the circumcision was unto Peter], James [Martyred Saints of Revelation][Acts 12:2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword], and John [Born Again Raptured Church][Revelation 4:1 I (John) looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven] his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart, And (Jesus) was transfigured before them: and His face did shine as the sun, and His raiment was white as the light.
Note: Jesus in His fleshly body was without sin. It is impossible for sin to be glorified by God therefore the bodily transfiguration and glorification of Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration is conclusive proof that Jesus was indeed born of the Virgin and sinless throughout His entire physical existence on earth. Neither Peter, James or John were glorified that day being regular living sinful people and like everyone who is alive we have to physically die first and be removed from our physical body of sin and then transfigured into a new Spiritual body, like Jesus, that will then be glorified by God.
The Christian Church is the unique time period beginning with the cross and resurrection of Jesus when on the day of the resurrection Jesus joined the presence of His disciples and breathed His eternal Holy Spirit life into each of them individually (John 20:21-23) creating the Born Again Christian Church. Membership in the Christian Church will come to a close and the Christian Church will end in the Rapture (1 Thessalonians 4:14-18) as all of the Holy Spirit filled Christians will be gathered together into heaven at the voice of the Archangel and the trumpet (announcement) of God.
Remember all of the Old Testament Saints up to and including John the Baptist were not Christians because they lived and died before the cross and resurrection of Jesus and did not have the opportunity to confess Jesus as the sufferer for their sins and were unable to receive by faith the Holy Spirit.
The Old Testament Saints comprised the Jews who followed God and obeyed His commandments, ordinances and customs and the righteous gentiles who not personally knowing God like the Jews the righteous Gentiles obeyed their conscious towards God (Romans 2:14-15).
The Martyred Saints of Revelation will not be of the Christian Church as the Church is removed and the Holy Spirit is not available to be indwelt among people (2 Thessalonians 2:6-7) during the Tribulation time period. The Martyred Saints of Revelation will again be like the righteous Gentiles of the Old Testament times obeying God with their conscience and not like the Christians who were able to obey God with our conscience and in our Spirit.
*The promise of Jesus (Matthew 16:18) to His Christian (Born again-Spirit filled) Church is that the Church will always stand and Satan will not prevail against Jesus' Church. However after the Church is raptured into heaven Satan is then given authority (Revelation 13:7) to overcome the precious Martyred Saints of Revelation. Not having the Born Again Spirit the Martyred Saints of Revelation and also the 144,000 Jewish witnesses will be overcome by the antichrist and will give their life to Jesus. It is not available for Satan to overcome the Born Again Christian Church.

Witnessing Sharing our Christian Faith
As Christians how can we believe in God, Heaven and Salvation and then not tell others about this Good News?
Of course we desire to share our glorious discovery of Jesus Christ with others that is the purpose of good news to share it!
A big part of Christian witnessing is simply confirming that there is an opportunity to reach out and to discover that God does exist. Christians are rightly counting on God the Holy Spirit to reach out to all people and we are also counting on people themselves to take responsibility for their own faith and to reach out back to God in seeking answers, asking questions, reading the Bible, prayer, attending Church, etc.

The Marks of a Cult: Online Video View 10 min -- Purchase DVD ($12.95)
A fascinating analysis examining the core of Christian orthodoxy; where denominations within the true Church ends...and a cult begins.
"Is salvation something that comes from and through the church? Salvation is of God and the church is not God. The church is what Christ saves it is not what saves the people of Christ. The church is simply the people of Jesus Christ."
Note: Redemption is a work of God, specifically the work of the cross (death, dead to sin - this world). Once redeemed, returned to the presence of God, salvation (healing – alive in Jesus Christ in heaven) is now a cooperative work between God (Holy Spirit) and people. The Church points the way to the cross of Jesus to redemption and the Church (fellowship) also teaches and administers the healing salvation, life in heaven. Attending a good Bible based redemption and salvation Christian Church is crucial to developing our own personal Spiritual wellbeing.
Death, what really Happens?
Being created by God we are given the gift of everlasting life.
If life were not everlasting it would not have significant meaning since eventually our life would end and our experiences of life would cease to exist. Life does not end and what is at issue is where we will spend our everlasting life.
1. In the presence of God in heaven
2. Away from the presence of God in hell
The gift of life from God is an enormous gift and with this gift comes the enormous responsibility of selecting where we are going to spend our eternity. Heaven is a real place and so is hell therefore choose wisely, choose well and most important of all choose Jesus Christ and live an eternity with meaning!

Military service is perhaps the ultimate service. It has been well said about Military service that "All gave some, and Some gave All" this saying is also well applied to the family, friends and supporters of those who are in uniform. As with all things godly, military service for a godly Country with godly desires and godly outcomes is indeed godly and being godly it is an honorable and acceptable offering of service and sacrifice to both God and man. Because of the enormous nature and scope of an individual's Military service the resulting advantages and disadvantages are equally just as enormous and far reaching into the veteran's life.

Take Up Your Cross and Follow Jesus (Cartoon)
Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me" (Mat 16:24). How often we complain about the cross we bear but don’t realize it is preparing us for the dip in the road that God can see and we cannot. Whatever your cross. Whatever your pain. There will always be sunshine after the rain. Perhaps you may stumble.
Perhaps even fall. But God is always ready to answer your call. He knows every heartache. Sees every tear. A word from His lips, can calm every fear. Your sorrows may linger, throughout the night. But suddenly vanish, dawn’s early light. The Savior is waiting in Heaven above. To give you His grace, and send you His love.

"No book ever inflicted a wound so deep and incurable on the Romish system of superstition and bloody persecution... (it) was placed in... all churches and chapels throughout the kingdom, by order of Queen Elizabeth." ... The testimony of the martyrs was extraordinary. Their impact was greatly increased through the industrious writing of John Foxe... Never before had such a work on such a scale appeared in English, certainly never at such a moment ... Along with the Bible, Foxe's Book of Martyrs became a family book in many homes. Foxe's Acts and Monuments (the formal title of his extensive chronicle on the martyrs) was the principal practical means of turning England to Protestantism. ... Most importantly, though, this book overflows with faith building testimony of the power of God to overcome the most cruel and barbarous acts of human depravity and demonic cruelty.
Dr. Francis Schaeffer (1912-1984) bio
Francis Schaeffer was a Presbyterian minister with an ability to see how the questions of meaning, morals, and value being dealt with by philosophy, were the same questions that the Bible dealt with, only in different language. Once an agnostic, Schaeffer came to the conclusion that Biblical Christianity not only gave sufficient answers to the big questions, but that they were the only answers that were both self-consistent and livable. With this conviction he became a man of conversation. Schaeffer taught that God is really there and He is not silent. He had spoken to man in the Bible as and a result we could have "true truth" about God and man. Knowing the dignity of man created in God's image, he placed a high value on creativity as an expression of that image. He opened his Swiss home to travelers to discuss these things. Later he began lecturing in universities and writing a number of books. Perhaps no other Christian thinker of the twentieth century, besides C.S. Lewis, has had more influence on thinking people.

The award winning series that changed the way we look at missionaries.
Item #1 - Heaven and Hell They had learned the joy of service on earth, and now they had eternity to enjoy it, only more so - Heaven is a place God has created for all men, and he has created a way (the cross and resurrection life of Jesus) to be sure your name is on the 'A' list. There is no 'B' list.
C. S. Lewis drew us a mental picture of Hell, everyone was seated at a banquet table filled with wonderful food. The problem arose in that the food was several feet away, and they all had three foot long forks and knives. They could just reach the food, but the utensil's were too long to get the food into their mouths. There was anger, fighting, screaming and unpleasantness abounding. Think of the expansion of Moreso's law for eternity. Lewis also drew us a picture of Heaven, same huge banquet table filled with wonderful foods. The banqueters in Heaven were equipped with those same three foot long utensils. The difference was the joy, laughter, and excitement at the table; they were feeding each other, and enjoying a great feast. They had learned the joy of service on earth, and now they had eternity to enjoy it, only more so.

This is much like today where people in the cults are dying of thirst, a lack of the living water of the gospel of Jesus Christ. It is not enough to be just a nice person in a thirsty world. Christians who have the truth need to assist others to help them to drink from the living water of the message of Jesus Christ.
John 7:37-38 In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto Me, and drink. He that believeth on Me, as the scripture hath said, out of His belly shall flow rivers of living water.

Faith 2 Action: Radio Broadcasts Radio Shows - *The Criminalization of Christianity - Online 10 part audio book
by Janet L. Folger "The most important book of 2006" for Christians on how to get our country back before it's too late. Buy a copy for yourself and one for your pastor!
*This audio has several examples of our great President Ronald Reagan where Reagan makes his principals and convictions well known through his words and then his actions actually speak louder than his words. This is a stark contrast to the Republicans of today especially like Mitt Romney who seeks others to speak for him and even then his actions fail to meet or exceed even his smallest assertions.
Patrick and James on Mormon Mitt Romney and US elections, 08 (YouTube 10:09)
Two English Christians who are ex-Catholics, they have some really good insights into American politics and some errors, Jerry Falwell didn't support Romney, Pat Robertson was leaning that way but ended up endorsing Rudy Giuliani.
Mormon (LDS) Baptism for the Dead
How ridiculous is the Mormon concept of "baptism for the dead." God didn't just suddenly figure out in the 1840's that mankind needed salvation. All of salvation was dealt with (Genesis 3:15 Messiah/Christ - Virgin Birth - seed of the woman) in the beginning in the garden of Eden, immediately after the original sin, with both Adam and Eve and for all of their descendants. God has had His program for mankind intact since the beginning, Joseph Smith and the Mormons are messing up God's plan not making it better.
