Satanism, Witchcraft and Halloween

A sober warning about the kingdom of darkness!

This audio message is from a series of lectures on the dangers of Occultism and many practices associated with it. Recorded in the late 1990s during an outreach in San Luis Obispo, CA - when Chris was serving as a pastor in that same city - the message includes several audio clips from other speakers as well. These clips are not blanket endorsements for these other ministries, but rather, they serve to illustrate the reality of the powers of darkness and the importance of being educated on the subject.

The first illustrative audio clip is from a Christian evangelist who spent 4 hours being educated - by the Los Angeles County Satanic and Occult Task Force - about the reality of satanic activity and crime in Southern California. In the second clip, the same author explains how teen suicide is part of the occult revolution. The third illustrative audio clip is a piece from Dr. Walter Martin speaking on the origin of Halloween and the Christian’s responsibility to make every opportunity to proclaim the biblical gospel.

Christians of all sorts need to hear this message, for many are completely ignorant about what truly takes place in the kingdom of the occult, what oftentimes occurs on Halloween, and what witches and Satanists seek to do when they visit Christian churches for non-Christian purposes.

“If you can tear down the prayer foundation of a church then you’ve destroyed that church. And that’s what every witch or Satanist plans to do when they go into a church, is to tear down that prayer foundation, and the rest of the church goes quickly after that.”

- From an ex-Satanist who is now a committed Christian
