Stay away from Jack-O-Lanterns because Jack the blacksmith made a pact with the devil and now he is roaming around with this carved out pumpkin wrecking havoc and horror on the lives of people.
Quote:Jenny Weaver Issues Urgent Warning: Why Christians ‘Cannot Redeem’ Jack-O-Lanterns and Halloween
Halloween is not a game. Instead, it is a dark day that Christians should avoid celebrating at all costs.
Ex-witch-turned-revivalist Jenny Weaver shared why Christians should not only avoid Halloween, but the specific danger behind the jack-o-lantern.
“Jack-o-lanterns originated from a festival called Samhain, and they believed on this one day that the veil would be very thin and the dead could arise from graves and come back and wreck vengeance and horror on the living.”
Weaver notes that in ancient tradition, people would cut out scary faces in the gourds as a means to ward off these evil spirits from attacking. She also points out another legend regarding the jack-o-lantern, which is about a blacksmith whose name was Jack.
“He made a pact with the devil, so the devil couldn’t take his soul. When he died, he couldn’t go on to heaven, and he couldn’t go into hell, so Satan forced him to roam around with this carved out pumpkin light as his only way to see, and he went around wrecking havoc and horror on the lives of people,” Weaver says.
With these demonic background origins, Weaver notes that the jack-o-lantern is irredeemable from being anything good because it is rooted in darkness.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
