Pastor Vlad Savchuk explained the reason why Christians shouldn’t celebrate Halloween. He warned about the darkness, fear, and death that it promotes.
Celebrating Halloween?
One of the most debated issues amongst Christians is the celebration of Halloween. Is it right for Christians to participate in it, or is it not? Should we take it seriously? How should we respond to it?
In an Instagram post, Pastor Vlad Savchuk shared a video of teenagers asking him about the celebration of Halloween.
Vlad explained from the start that the “origin of Halloween” is evil. But he knows some people would argue that even other important dates for Christians also have an evil origin, like Christmas and Easter. However, he focused on what it promotes.
“But in reality, why we don’t celebrate Halloween is because not of just the origins but because of what it promotes,” he said. “It promotes darkness, it promotes fear, and it promotes death.”
The Contradiction
He went on to explain the truth about our identity in Jesus and how it contradicts what Halloween is all about.
“As Christians, we are the light of the world, we are also people of faith, and we’re people that promote life,” he explained. “And so I don’t know how anybody in the right mind can celebrate something that brings death, darkness, and fear. We’re already fighting devils and demons on every corner.”

Vlad also shared how it makes satanist glad “that Christians allow their kids to celebrate the devil one day of the year.”
Then he concluded, “And so, if for Satanists and people who do wicca and voodoo, this is a very huge holiday. Kind of like Christmas for us. I think it’s not wise for Christians to celebrate that and to go all out.”
