storm007 First most of what we call magic is slight of hand and the Bible doesn't comment on that. However it is trickery and the Bible does comment on that. Telling us not to function in deceit. As to actual magic we see four examples and they were in opposition to God Exodus 7:11-12 But Pharaoh also called the wise men and the sorcerers; so the magicians of Egypt, they also did in like manner with their enchantments. [12] For every man threw down his rod, and they became serpents. But Aaron's rod swallowed up their rods. Exodus 7:22 Then the magicians of Egypt did so with their enchantments; and Pharaoh's heart grew hard, and he did not heed them, as the Lord had said. Exodus 8:7 And the magicians did so with their enchantments, and brought up frogs on the land of Egypt. Exodus 8:18 Now the magicians so worked with their enchantments to bring forth lice, but they could not. So there were lice on man and beast. To accomplish what we would consider true magic without the sight of hand you would have to employ a spirit being and we are told not to.' Leviticus 19:31 'Give no regard to mediums and familiar spirits; do not seek after them, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God. EdB |
