Magic Is Not

NO: If men did not believe God's Word

“There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch, Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD”
–Deuteronomy 18:10-12

One word which has been much used in our times is “magic.”

“Magic” is a word which has been used and misused for centuries.  It allows what is really happening to hide behind words, nonsense words, flourishes and slight of hand.

Therefore, because “magic” is a word which deceives, it is a very appropriate word for the end times, which are a time of great deception.

As befits such a deception, there are a great many stories told about “magic.”

Stories such as the many “types of magic,” each of which has its own stories, legends, lies and deceptions.

  1. Necromancy
  2. Blood magic
  3. Alchemy
  4. Folk magic
  5. Elemental magic
  6. Mysticism
  7. Technomagic
  8. Spell casting
  9. Hexes
  10. Black magic and the Dark Arts
  11. White magic
  12. Aether magic
  13. Voodoo
  14. Native magic
  15. Witchcraft

…as well as many other forms of “magic.”

Some maintain that science is “magic” and refer to the “blurring the lines” between the two.

Writer Arthur C. Clarke had a pair of quotes on the matter.

“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”

“Magic’s just science that we don’t understand yet.”

Be that as it may, ALL magic has one thing in common.

It is not magic.

It is not the casting of “spells.”

It is not a power the occult practitioner wields.

Magic is the doings of devils (demons), summoned by those who maintain they use “magic.”

Everything else is only a cover story to mask the true nature of what is going on.  The practitioner petitions a devil (demon, familiar spirit), makes various sacrifices to the spirit and claims they have the “power of magic” when a deed is done.

Quite a lengthy article could be written on the subject of “magic,” the various and many deceptions behind those practices we call “magic” and where these deceptions are headed. Such a piece might also include

And so it will be–at a later time.

There IS NO magic.

There ARE displays of demonic power.

Let this piece serve as an introduction to the subject.

DOES the reader believe in magic?

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

THE GOSPEL OF JESUS CHRIST

“Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain. For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

And that he was seen of Cephas, then of the twelve: After that, he was seen of above five hundred brethren at once; of whom the greater part remain unto this present, but some are fallen asleep. After that, he was seen of James; then of all the apostles. And last of all he was seen of me also, as of one born out of due time. ”
–1 Corinthians 15:1-8

“For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.”
-–Romans 1:16

Ease of Worship

taking a break

“Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
–Matthew 11:29-30

TAKE A BREAK

There are many reasons to forsake the pretend false religions in favor of Christianity, but one of the best reasons is that Christianity has a greater ease of worship.

ACTUALLY, those who have been living a lie, professing Jesus only with their lips while serving another will find Christianity to be a much easier path to tread.

Real Christianity is certainly an easier path to walk then the fake, pretend type so many tares are used to.

Yes, the believer is PROMISED to be hated of all men for Jesus’ sake.

Yes, the believer is PROMISED persecution.

Yes, the believer is PROMISED tribulation.

BUT, the believer has access to so many resources the pretender lacks.

So, even with all of the promised testing of the believer, in many important ways, life gets EASIER.

There are a LOT of reasons to worship God the Creator and His Son, Jesus Christ.

Not only are God Almighty and Jesus Christ easy masters to serve, but when one no longer has to lie about who he serves, it requires much less remembering what one has said.

IS the reader tired of trudging along the road of life, dodging the potholes which are many and dangerous?

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

Christmas Diminishing

Christmas time?

“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.”
–Matthew 24:12

The season of Christmas is supposedly the time of year the world celebrates the birth of Jesus Christ.

Supposedly.

However, as most will attest, the name of Jesus is hard to find during the season which is named for him.  Oh sure, there are the obligatory Jesus references on the day/night before Christmas Day.

But, that’s pretty much the extent of hearing the name of Jesus.

Many feel that the holiday is “festive” because men perhaps smile a little quicker and are freer with happy words.

This festive mood appears to account for most of the “spirit of Christmas.”

One observation for 2018: Christmas seems to be diminishing; to be slipping away. Even the playing of secular Christmas songs in stores seems to have faded.  It is suspected this diminishing is to be expected when the birth of Jesus–the Bible’s praise of the day of one’s birth date is almost non-existent–has been replaced by rampant consumerism and greed.

MORE

Greed IS a popular sin.

BUT sin is only pleasurable for a season–one reason sin progressively grows worse.

“By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter; Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season”
–Hebrews 11:24-25

So even the seasonal celebrations of greed on Black Friday appeared rather muted in 2018.

MORE: One More Black Friday Yet Different from Previous Ones

What is behind this dampening down of the attention to Christmas?

Is it due to economic worries?

Or something else?

Two questions for the reader:

1- Has the reader noticed this lessening of all things Christmas in 2018?

2- IF the reader has noticed this fading away, what does the reader suppose is the reason behind it?

Two questions to ponder as we quietly slip under two weeks remaining until Christmas Day 2018.

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.

A People Called By My Name

called by my name: my name is

There are MANY pretenders in the world: a great many pretend to be “children of God.”

God’s Word tells of a people “called by my name.”

Though this people has many pretenders and disregards what the LORD commands, He declares He will still show mercy to a remnant of this people.

For eternity.

God’s Word does not have very good things to say about the great majority of this people.

God’s Word is also very clear about what the judgment of all pretenders will be.

“I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name. I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts; A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick; Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine’s flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels; Which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.  Behold, it is written before me: I will not keep silence, but will recompense, even recompense into their bosom, Your iniquities, and the iniquities of your fathers together, saith the LORD, which have burned incense upon the mountains, and blasphemed me upon the hills: therefore will I measure their former work into their bosom.

“Thus saith the LORD, As the new wine is found in the cluster, and one saith, Destroy it not; for a blessing is in it: so will I do for my servants’ sakes, that I may not destroy them all. And I will bring forth a seed out of Jacob, and out of Judah an inheritor of my mountains: and mine elect shall inherit it, and my servants shall dwell there. And Sharon shall be a fold of flocks, and the valley of Achor a place for the herds to lie down in, for my people that have sought me.

“But ye are they that forsake the LORD, that forget my holy mountain, that prepare a table for that troop, and that furnish the drink offering unto that number. Therefore will I number you to the sword, and ye shall all bow down to the slaughter: because when I called, ye did not answer; when I spake, ye did not hear; but did evil before mine eyes, and did choose that wherein I delighted not.

“Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, my servants shall eat, but ye shall be hungry: behold, my servants shall drink, but ye shall be thirsty: behold, my servants shall rejoice, but ye shall be ashamed: Behold, my servants shall sing for joy of heart, but ye shall cry for sorrow of heart, and shall howl for vexation of spirit. And ye shall leave your name for a curse unto my chosen: for the Lord GOD shall slay thee, and call his servants by another name: That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from mine eyes.

“For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.”
–Isaiah 65:1-17

Can the reader guess who the LORD is referring to?

DOES the reader believe himself to be a child of God?

Why or why not?

It is not YET too late: there is still time to change direction (repent), place your faith (hope) for the future entirely on Jesus Christ and enter the kingdom of heaven.
