EdB: You write: "Isn't 'STAY AWAY from witchcraft' sufficient?" "I think this is a little different than murder witchcraft is witchcraft. God never said it didn't exist He said STAY AWAY from it." "The Bible clearly tells us to STAY AWAY from magic, witchcraft, divining spirits, sorcery." (Emphasis added.) Deuteronomy 18: 10 There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, or one who *PRACTICES* witchcraft, or a soothsayer, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, 11 or one who conjures spells, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. 12 For all who *DO* these things are an abomination to the Lord, and because of these abominations the Lord your God drives them out from before you. (Emphasis added. New King James Version.) Ed, my respected brother, it is not my purpose here to criticize you. Nor am I taking sides in your ongoing debate. I merely wish to point out that IN THE LAW it does not say "STAY AWAY FROM" magic, etc. What it clearly says in Deuteronomy 18 is that "all who *DO* these things are an abomination to the Lord." It also prohibits "one who *PRACTICES* witchcraft" (emphasis added). It may be that somewhere in the Bible it does use the words "stay away from" these things. However, I am not familiar with any such passage. Grace to you, Kalos |

Kalos Your absolutely right as far as I know the words stay away are not there in reference to magic or witchcraft. But I can't spell and I felt safer using stay away than abomination (I copied it from you response :-)) To the letter of the law your right but to me when God says somethng is an abomination that means stay away. Sorry for any confusion I might have caused. I will either learn to spell or stay away from any discussions that require big words :-) Love you my brother Be Blessed and be a Blessing EdB |
