In his heart Bobby knew that Victor was right about Halloween. His Pastor had told everyone the same thing a few weeks ago! Now what was he going to do? He must decide to stay or go. He must choose between Victor and his god and the true living God. Bobby remembered how wonderful it felt when he asked Jesus Christ into his heart. He said a quick prayer to his Lord for strength.
As he looked towards Victor he noticed that the image behind him had vanished. He quickly looked directly into Victor's cold eyes and said that he wanted no part of his god the devil. He knew that the devil is the prince of lies and anyone that follows him will end up in Hell. He turned to Jeff and asked him to go with him. Jeff also knew the peace that is only found in Jesus and believed that he would be forgiven if he just asked. All the other boys in the room felt something or someone pressing down on their shoulders so they could not stand. Bobby and Jeff left together, ran home and never returned.
They learned an important lesson that night about Halloween. Jesus said "No servant can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other." (Luke 16:13a)
Who do you love? ... Who are you loyal to? Halloween may seem like nothing but fun. Then ask yourself who is honored by it? If you are a Christian then the answer will be clear. If you are not a Christian but realize that you have been following Satan and would like to learn more about God's love for you then please visit:
