Magic scares Christians the most and you know why

Tell us why!

I don't eat shit sandwiches. Doesn't mean I'm scared of shit sandwiches. I just sweep them up and put them in the trash bin. Same goes for witchcraft.

Who... Me?

Did you hear it through a grapevine?

No, magic does not scare Christians:

"I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you." Luke 10:19

Magic only works correctly when you know the source is God.

Both Jesus and Mary were charged with "sorcery". People.looked at the miracles as magic.

Casting out demons, healing people = good magic.

Hurting people, head games, intimidation = bad magic, etc.

Healing people and casting out demons is NOT magic, it's the power of God, when done in the name of Jesus. Done any other way (and true of all magic) is deception, manipulation and bondage to useless rituals, charms and magical fetishes. You are being toyed with by Demonic powers.

.....or maybe because the bible has at least 30 quotes forbidding magic? Could thst be it?

Jesus was a magician. The joke is on humanity.

The sad joke is on humanity, indeed, if they choose to believe as you do. Lead away and deceived by your own selfish lust and laziness.

so jesus turned water to wine but is not a magician

All of creation is subject to the Creator.

Jesus ransomed ops soul by offering himself and offered freedom from bondage to op and the gift of eternal life and all o.o has to do is say yes. But that ain't magic.

Colossians 1:16 “For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.”

Dude your wesk ass attempt to imtroduce demons

Is just weak.

I pray a Guardian Angel can work against your attempts at evil

No mate, we're just really worried for you

Sorry honeybun. Scared is not what we are. It's called obedience. Any "magic" done without the power of God is WITCHCRAFT being done done with demons.

Anyone who uses witchcraft is a coward, too scared to face their target in real life. Witchcraft is for miserable people.

Christians are spooked by anything that disrupts their Status Quo!

Christions do not stop Wars or Oppression. The pillaging and rape of
other nations is mere entertainment to be watched on TV.

To all Zionistic Christians in control...The real magic occurs when all Wars cease!


Cheers, Uncle Hexy

So you await Christ's reign when Satan will be bound for 1000 years .

Does everyone here realize the Bible was altered by the Romans who were also trying to keep the Christians under control or even kill them. Do you think it's really all true? Please accept it has been altered and is not completely true. It can't possible be completely true because of all the Doublets in it, meaning complete contradicts that cannot possible both be true at the same time.

You have been deceived and you follow lies like sheep. It was for your control, not your good.

Most churches want your hard earned dollars and to play tiddlywinks with your kids in a back room. Then if you question anything, they call you bad. It's psychological mind control.

Amazing what you can learn from a thread on GLP and YouTube, huh? Real research requires too much effort. Isn't that right?

Amen!

Exodus 22:18

"Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live."


If you practice witchcraft and sorcery, you attract evil spirits/demons into your life and the life of those around you.

You damn your soul and your children's souls to hell!

Yes…I am waiting on someone, who has the ability to establish both
peace and prosperity on this planet.

Truth

Too many Christians make the Bible an idol.

How could God’s word possibly be confined to a book?
It’s a glaring pimple on the face of biblical Christians.

God works so many wonders around us and too many Christians will say “No! The Bible says...”

What do you think prayer is? Real intentional prayer?

Guns are a tool
Cars are a tool
Magic is a tool

It is how you use the tools. And who your true master is.

Understand?

An anchor in the true omnipotent God of all dimensions, allows all things to become possible and fear and doubt fall aside like rotten clothes.

Understand? You should be asking yourself that question.

"But he answered, “It is written, “‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’" Matthew 4:4

"Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth." 2 Timothy 2:15

"For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." Hebrews 4:12

"All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work." 2 Timothy 3:16-17

"The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God will stand forever." Isaiah 40:8

Exactly how are Christians the problem concerning Magick itself, OP?
