An Alert Enemy & Spiritualism - Part 3

Continuing from part 2....Spiritualism has made it's way into churches, coffee shops, the work place, clubs, and even found welcome in legislative bodies, and like Bible times even in the courts of Kings and leaders of high places throughout history. By representing the most evil of sinners as in heaven, Satan says to the world: "No matter whether you believe or disbelieve God and the Bible, live as you please. Heaven is your home." But the Word of God says, "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil, who put darkness for light, and light for darkness" -  Isaiah 5:20.

Today now in 2014 Spiritualism is one of the biggest attacks Satan uses to get people to turn away from God or to never have that "God experience" that we all need to encounter in our lives. Spiritualism is now adopting a Christian appearance, but it can not deny or hide it's teaching. It professes to accept Christ and the Bible, but it interprets the Bible in a way that is pleasing to the unrenewed heart. It dwells on love as the chief attribute of God, but it degrades this love to a weak sentimentalism. God's condemnations of sin, the requirements of His holy law, are kept out of sight. Fables lead men and women to reject the Bible as the foundation of their faith. Christ is denied as surely as before, but most people do not recognize the deception. Few people don't understand how powerful and how real tampering with spiritualism is. Many tamper with it merely out of curiosity. Most people would hate the idea and be horrified at the thought of yielding to the spirits control, but they dare to go onto forbidden ground and the destroyer exercises his power on them against their will. If he can get them to submit their minds to his direction just once, he will hold them captive. Nothing but the power of God in earnest prayer can save them at this point.....this is why it's so dangerous to play with this kind of force.

All who willfully cherish known sin are inviting Satan's temptations. They separate themselves from God and the watch care of His angels, leaving themselves without any protection. Isaiah 8:19-20 says, "When they say to you, seek those who are mediums and wizards who whisper and mutter, should not a people seek their God? Should they seek the dead on behalf of the living? To the law and to the testimony! If they do not speak according to this word, it is because there is no light in them." If people had been willing to accept the Bible truth concerning our human nature and the condition of the dead, they would see in spiritualism Satan's power and lying wonders. But so many people close there eyes to the light with rune stones, magic, fairy's, pendents, weegie boards, etc. Satan waves his snares around them. Those of us who oppose spiritualism attack Satan and his angels. He can quote Scripture and will twist its teaching. Those who intend to stand in this time of danger must understand for themselves what the Bible teaches.

Remember those who comfort themselves with the assurance that there is no punishment for the sinner, who reject the truths that Heaven has provided as a defense for the day for trouble, will accept the lies that Satan offers, the deceptive claims of spiritualism.
