The Witchcraft

Two days ago, I was browsing Yahoo website when found this article:

Saudi man executed for witchcraft

I remember stories from my elder relatives that they had/have a neighbor who was/is practicing sorcery and witchcraft. Whenever a person from their barangay got sick without any reason (because the doctors can't determine the cause of their sickness), witch doctors (wherever they were) always blame the witch or other spiritual entities.

They said that this witch has already killed several people, including one of my relatives. Unfortunately and technically they can't prove it.

I do believe that supernatural thing exists, and witchcraft is one of these. It is very common to Filipinos, especially in provinces -- because they still live in a traditional and folkloric way. 

Years ago, I saw from TV, a witch was interviewed -- If you request him to kill a person, like for example, someone you would like to take revenge; For a sum of money, he'll just cast a powerful spell to kill this person. These people have no difference from hired killers who used guns to kill. Its just that this witch has publicly sent his message "pay me, and I'll kill for you".

The Witchcraft is to kill and deceive people.

God does not allow this practices, they should be executed when found.

“...Do not practice divination or seek omens." - Leviticus 19:26

"Do not allow a sorceress to live." - Exodus 22:18

"When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there. Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord; because of these same detestable practices the Lord your God will drive out those nations before you. You must be blameless before the Lord your God. 

"The nations you will dispossess listen to those who practice sorcery or divination. But as for you, the Lord your God has not permitted you to do so. " - Deuteronomy 18:9-14

If you know someone have a supernatural sickness/disease, DO NOT consult witch doctor or any object, they may heal but their power does not come from God.

It is the best practice to read the Bible, because reading the Bible we'll gain wisdom. Having this wisdom we'll know who are the people of God that we can count on whenever we're in need.

God bless.. To God Be The Glory!
