"...he practiced soothsaying,
used
witchcraft and sorcery,
and consulted
mediums and spiritists.
He did much
evil in the sight of the Lord,
to provoke him to anger."
2nd
Chronicles 33:6
All forms of the occult are absolutely
forbidden in the Word of God. This kind of sin brings a curse. The
most common manifestations of a curse resulting from delving into the
occult are tragedy in the family, mental illness and premature death,
often the death of the sinner's child or children.
Not only is
involvement in the occult an abomination, but the Lord says any
PERSON who DOES any of this is an abomination.
“For all who
DO these things are an abomination to the Lord...”
Deuteronomy
18:12
Why?
Because there are only two sources of
supernatural power, God and Satan. If one makes contact with a medium
or fortune teller, the power being contacted is demonic, the power
the medium contacts is from the Satanic kingdom. When king Saul went
for advice to a medium, she made contact with the dead for him. For
this sin he lost his life.
"So Saul died for his
unfaithfulness
which he had committed against the Lord,
because
he did not keep the word of the Lord,
and also because he
consulted a medium for guidance."
1 Chronicles 10:13
The
Bible is very clear, in many passages, that we are to go ONLY to the
Lord and approaching any form of the occult is spiritual
adultery.
Any involvement in anything occult provokes God to
anger. Any. Even when done in ignorance.
