Well, what to say.
I've been in what the topic says a long time.
Most people say, naaah, those things don't work, it can't be.
Problem is, they do work.
Magick is real, psionics(Telepathy, psychokinesis, out of body experience) is real, the world of occult, is real.
Most people deny the fact that this is real, or that it even exists.
But the bible warns against sorceresses, magicians, fortune tellers, etc...
Why would the bible warn this strongly if it wouldn't be real.
This is the way Satan is trying to let us loose guard against it, let us be lured by it.
I have been in this world for quite a long time before I turned christian, and well, I was a "big guy" in this world.
I have this natural nack of understanding things, I hear it described once/ do it once, and then I understand how to use it, apply it.
This way I got experience in most fields of the occult/magic.
I did my own spells, my own energy manipulation, psionics, and much more.
Just name a thing, and I know things about it.
I've been very deep in this world.
I was well, not happy, but relaxed in this world. It felt like you could hadle creation just like that, form it to your will.
I could do many things with many persons by psionics, I could let them do my will.
That was until I met the girl who I fell in love with. I tried a couple of things on her, but it all failed. As if she was well, an untouchable thing, it would just go into a void, as if I had done nothing.
Well after a while I had called her up and we had a "date", and then I discovered she was christian.
That made me kinda think that that might be the reason why it works.
And then hearing her solemly say that God does answer prayers, I was suprised.
Before I only knew christians that were stuffy and boring believers. On sunday we are holy, in the week we die hard businessmen who tred on everyone. So my idea of christianity was a bit mangled.
But anyhows, by her I was turned christian. And after I had given my life to christ, I still had these bonds with the occult, with magic. I still had this desire to use it and I did sometimes. But everytime I did it, it felt wrong.
As if from swimming in nice clear water suddenly a sewer opens and you're swimming in murky stinking water.
So I started thinking and exploring, found a lot of verses in deutronomium and more bible books about the occult.
It clearly says that god detests a sorceres(magic), fortune tellers(psionics(clearvoyance))
These two things fall both under the occult.
Occultism is about the invisible world. It is a place we must not touch. It is the field where demons, fallen angels, satan, god, angels fight out their battles.
And they are fighting there for you!
If you go and explore that world, you are giving demons/fallen angels a way out of that world into our world. It gives them the power to make great changes in this world.
The other reason why you shouldn't do occultism is that it is very self centered.
For most psionic/magickal acts, you need to focus strongly on yourself, focusing on your mind/body and control that.
There is no room for other things, so you would have to close out God from yourself. That is a bad thing, one shouldn't do things without the presence of God, beacouse he is protecting you.
If you would do anything without God helping you, you are giving way to the forces of Satan.
So please I beg you, if you do any of these things. Please turn away whilst you can. The end age is very near(much nearer then when paul said it) and we don't have much time left to prepare, I give 30-40 years max....
