This image depicts the Biblical promise to the Church:
"God of
peace will soon crush Satan under your feet,"
which is one of the
celebratory purposes of Halloween.

Happy All Saints' Day! Yesterday was
"All Hallows Eve" (the day before All Saint's Day). It is
essential to remember that Halloween was and still ought to be a
Christian "holy-day." The
problem is that we have let the World redefine it; because the Church
has lost its voice, lost its love of the calendar, lost its militant
power, we have forgotten the
true significance of many such holidays. We are supposed to worship in
spirit and in truth; we
must, therefore, return once more to the true meaning of things.
Remember, any calendar and the significance of its events shows the
cultus
of a culture, that is, the thing that binds a culture together in
worship. The Christian calendar saw fit that it should tell a story, the
story of the life, death, resurrection of Christ. Today is All
Saint's Day, the last day on the Church Calendar, where we celebrate the
final victory of Christ over the devil
through his saints.
