Halloween, also known as All Hallow’s Eve, originated as the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, meaning “summer’s end.” The autumnal holiday, rooted in POPISH and pagan festivals—with elements of magic and mystery, celebrated the link between seasonal and life cycles (winter was then a time associated with death).
Halloween is now celebrated worldwide and reflects the assimilation of various cultures. In the twenty-first century, it has become a secular, and hugely commercial holiday.

One of the most cherished items in my possession is a postcard that was sent from Mississippi to the Upper West Side of Manhattan in June 1964.
“Dear Mom and Dad,” it says, “I have arrived safely in Meridian, Mississippi. This is a wonderful town and the weather is fine. I wish you were here. The people in this city are wonderful and our reception was very good. All my love, Andy.”
That was the last word sent to his family by Andrew Goodman, a 20-year-old college student who was murdered by the Ku Klux Klan, along with fellow “”civil rights”" “”workers”" Michael Schwerner and James Chaney, on his first full day in Mississippi — June 21, the same date as the postmark on the card. The goal of the three young men had been to help register blacks to vote.

Witches Are Murderers Of Both The Born And The Unborn By Abortion

“Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live.” - Exodus 22:18

The American View

 

The Witchcraft - Abortion Connection

Abortionists who use potions to kill/murder unborn babies — such as the French RU-486 “abortion pill” — are practicing witchcraft. And Dr. James W. Scott, a member of the Trinity Orthodox Presbyterian Church in Hatsboro, Pennsylvania, gives us some important Biblical information on this subject in the 12/96 issue of the OPC’s national magazine “New Horizons.” Writing re: the issue of contraception, Brother Scott says we need to rethink St. Paul’s condemnation of ‘pharmakeia’ in Galatians 5:20. He says: “Most Bible scholars have uncritically assumed that this Greek word means ‘sorcery’ or ‘witchcraft’ (as translated in English Bibles). But ‘pharmakeia’(from which our English word pharmacy comes) originally referred to the use of potions, drugs, and often poisons, generally for evil purposes. Since the concoctions were often thought to have magical properties, the word developed the secondary meaning of ‘sorcery.’ Both meanings were current in Paul’s day: which one fits better in this text?

“Galatians 5:19-21 presents along list of ‘deeds of the flesh.’ These are personal vices, which would be common in the general population. But sorcery was the craft of a sorcerer, not really a common vice. The use of potions and drugs for evil purposes, however, was widespread. It makes more sense to find such ‘drug abuse’ listed alongside such things as immorality, idolatry, jealousy, and drunkenness, than to find sorcery on such a list….

“What would then be in view is the evil use of potions and drugs, especially in connection with sexual practices. That would refer to the potions and drugs used to prevent conception and destroy fetuses.

“Interestingly, the early third-century theologian Hippolytus, in the first clear reference to contraception made by a Christian in a work that has survived, condemns certain women who are ‘called believers,’ and yet use ‘drugs for producing sterility’….Thus, there is good reason to think that pharrnakeia in Galatians 5:20 refers to the evil use of potions and drugs, especially contraceptive and abortive agents.

“There is likewise good reason to find condemnations of contraception (and abortion) in Revelation 9:21, 21:8, and 22:15. In 9:20-21 people are said not to have repented of their idolatry, murdering (including abortion and infanticide),pharmakeia, immorality, and thievery. Once again we find ‘pharmakeia’ in a list of popular vices centering around sexual immorality. And again we say, this arguably includes the use of contraceptive drugs. The same analysis would be made at 21:8 and 22:15. (At 18:23 there is probably a reference to sorcery, since the passage is not listing personal vices, but describing the evil influence of ‘Babylon’ on the world; cf. Isaiah 47:9, 12).”

Though the Westminster Standards do not address this matter, Bro. Scott says “the early laws of Presbyterian Scotland punished with death ‘the taking of potions to cause abortion’ and also punished ‘the using such means. ..to hinder conception.’

“However, under the influence of increasingly degenerate secular culture, the largely apostate Protestant mainline churches gradually embraced contraception, especially in the second half of this century. This was not an isolated development. The birth control movement was an integral part of a general culture movement away from traditional Christian morality. In the pursuit of pleasure without consequences, moral objections to contraception, abortion, homosexuality, etc., had to go.

“The historical alone does not prove that contraception is wrong. However, should we expect an immoral and hedonistic society to come up with genuine moral insight, contrary to nearly two millennia of consistent teaching?”
