Lots of blogs, weekly newsletter, including this week's weekly newsletter, where I answer the perennial question, can a demon possess a

Christian? Lots of other holiday themed items up there surrounding Satan, demons, zombies, and also

the Halloween season, as well as my entire catalog of sermons and Bible teaching over the course of

almost 20 years. Go to mark

triskel.org and find it all for free. Well howdy it's uh it's that weird time of year amen

we're right on the brink of Halloween it's weird right you dress up your kids oh johnny we're

gonna dress you up like Satan Sally like a witch uh You two kids be like zombies and we'll go see

if we can scare the neighbors. It's a weird holiday, strange holiday. How many of you even as

Christians, you're wondering should we even participate? Is this a good idea, bad idea? Should we

scare the children that come to our house? Should we give them candy so they get diabetes? What should we do?

It's a very weird, strange, peculiar holiday.

It's that time of year when people are all about, you know,

ghouls and goblins and ghosts and Satan and demons and zombies.

And it's in the video games and it's in the movies and it's in the television shows.

And they're knocking on your door looking for treats.

And it raises a whole host of kind of supernatural, paranormal questions that I want to try and answer in rapid succession today.

And today's sermon is Satan demons and zombies.

So the question is, how did we get to this weird place?

And it's really strange as you look at the storyline of the Bible because everything starts out perfectly.

There's a perfect God who makes a perfect world, a perfect environment.
