Halloween celebrates things that are not of Christ.

No. I do not celebrate it.
Who cares if they changed the meaning of it? It still celebrates evil and death. Two things that the Lord Jesus Christ has conquered.

You can give halloween back to God. Just celebrate it as a Hallowed Evening. That is what it is soppose to mean.
There are evil cults practicing evil at the time, so it is best to pray for the children out getting candy, etc.
One can celebrate things of Christ 24/7. Any Day, Month or Year.
God created Oct. 31 first. Devil just likes to claim it for himself.
My church gives children an alternative that they can attend & get candy & consider God. They can't dress like witches, ghosts, devils, etc...

I'm a Christian and I don't have anything to do with Halloween.I also don't feel it's right when I see church's celebrating it and having haunted houses or similar activities in the church building.The fact that it is a Holiday celebrated by the church of satan should show something to those people.I hate to break it to them but there are actual groups having sacrifices and other things during that time that we as Christians should be praying about instead of celebrating with.

Christmas was a pagan holiday just like Halloween, and so I take both holidays and their "real" meaning with a grain of salt for what they've become, & have fun with 'em. To me Halloween is now dress-up day, be someone or something else, let the kids come to your door and meet your neighbors. Let everyone else put whatever meaning they want into it, I'll look at the positive aspects of the day.

I know ... some (if not most) Christians don't believe in Halloween. As long as what u celebrate doesn't cause harm to anyone, I think it's not a crime/sin to celebrate it

"This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it." t_a_m_i_l is right, God created Oct 31st and we should be giving Him the glory.
"What fellowship can light have with darkness?" . . . "For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord . . . find out what pleases the Lord." Search the Scriptures and God will reveal the truth to you, if you humble yourself and are willing to give up what you enjoy for His righteousness' sake. I don't celebrate Halloween, but I try to make it a special day of worship and prayer.

soulsista,
I think that Halloween can be fun. I am friends of the founder of Halloweenseries.com, and have written several things having to do with that stuff.
If you go there, check out Michael vs. The Government.
Here's something I wrote that's on there too:
This was a letter written to the dead.
Dead,
See how your rotting flesh is devoured by worms. See how your rancid flesh has become as it bloats off your mouldering bones.
Your tendons have broken and your muscles are so decomposed that they do not snap into a cramp. No, they lie limp as rags soaked with the dead blood of your former life.
Your brains have become the bile of worms. Your bodily fluids have mingled with the flesh on your back, together they are turning what you lie in into a mass of putrid pudding.
If light could reach the darkness that you lie in, it would reveal the swelling colonies of bacteria rising like mountains because of the millions and trillions of them devouring every last protein left in the mortality of the flesh.
And of the life you once knew? IT is gone, no life for you forever as you are not even a memory in the lives of those still living.
So swim in your filth. Lie in agony you are too dead to know. You are of the forgotten. Yes gone and forgotten forever.
This is what you gave yourself. This is your destiny. For you have already decided what would be the end for you.
You decided there would be no one to save you.
You were too wise for that, no one could tell you anything! So rot, and later hell and fire forever to cook the spirit that is left with pain forever.
Death and the Devil
