Halloween Masks Hide Deeper Truths About Evil
Faith Facts
- Scripture warns believers to be sober-minded and watchful because the adversary prowls like a roaring lion seeking someone to devour.
- Jesus Christ is presented in the Gospels as the light that overcomes darkness and the answer to humanity’s deepest questions about evil.
- Traditional Christian teaching holds that true celebration flows from recognizing Christ’s victory over sin rather than glorifying darkness.
Halloween raises some of life’s biggest questions and then gives us some very poor answers.
It gives evil a grotesque costume, but some of the greatest evils in history have arrived looking respectable, attractive and persuasive.
Either way, Jesus provides us with a solution to the problem of evil.
We should celebrate that.
