Bible Question:
Can there really be such thing as a Christian Witch?(there are so many sites on them)-I found it hard to believe and im not saying that out of ignorance I have done my studies on the Wiccan faith and though not all of it makes sense,some of it does and is closely tied in with SOME of the Christian practices. I know its a door that once is opened can be VERY difficult but would it be ok if I were to try magic once?-that sounds idiotic because many have been prone to try it again and again and I'm not saying im stronger than anyone else,but I kinda need to do this for closure. Can someone please help? By the way I've read all the verses and talked to God about it and am aware of the consequences.. |
Bible Answer: A Christian witch? You've got to be kidding! Of course there isn't. If you have, as you say, "read all the verses" then you know full well that Scripture condemns witchcraft, sorcery and kindred abominations. ...... And you don't need to try magic "for closure." What you need to do is believe what the word of God teaches and forget your foolish notions! God has already given you "closure" on this subject if you will read and believe His word. Are you a born-again believer in the Lord Jesus Christ? I take it that you are a young person itching to experiment, is that true? You could hardly have picked a more dangerous experiment than messing around with the dark work of Satan. Advice in a word: Don't! --Hank |
