True disciples do not have a neutral reaction toward Jesus. True disciples walk an almost paradoxical life of wanted to be around Him more than anyone or anything else, but also experiencing a fear that intensifies the more we are in His presence. It’s love and it’s respect. It’s intimacy and it’s reverence. It’s loyal friend and it’s holy God. Like Peter in Luke 5:8, both clinging to His feet and asking Him to leave.

The OuiJa Board

The OuiJa Board THE OUIJA BOARD Is it really a harmless game? A ÿharmless game? ÿ”It’s fun to play Ouija ÿBoard!” ÿÿ”It

scared ÿme!” ÿ”It shocked me with the things it told me!” ÿThese are ÿjust ÿsome ÿof the remarks you hear ÿwhen ÿthis ÿsubject ÿis mentioned.

But ÿwhat is this fascinating and ÿoft-times ÿfrightening game ÿbelieved ÿby ÿso ÿmany people that they even ÿallow ÿit ÿto control ÿÿtheir ÿlives? ÿÿThe ÿSpiritualists ÿtells ÿus ÿwe ÿare contacting ÿthe ÿdead, ÿÿand we are to accept these ÿmessages ÿas coming ÿfrom our departed Loved ones. ÿAlso, ÿthey explain ÿthat messages are given to us from “Guides” or “Guardian Angels” ÿfrom the Spirit World. ÿThe people who have become adept at this game will ÿsay some unseen, ÿintelligent force seems to control ÿtheir hand and spell these “Messages”.

For the answer to this problem I feel we must turn to the world’s greatest authority – the word of God. ÿPaul, ÿwriting in Ephesians 6:12 ÿsays “For we wrestle not against Flesh and Blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, ÿagainst spiritual wickedness in high places.”

One ÿof ÿthe ÿmajor doctrines denounced by the ÿBible ÿis Demonology, ÿÿand ÿthat is just what Paul refers to in ÿEphesians 6:12. ÿMany scriptures refer to these unseen intelligences. ÿAs one ÿwho ÿhas tampered with influences for almost a lifetime, ÿÿI appreciate what Paul meant and I know this to be a fact. ÿWithin these ÿmany ÿscriptures the Bible discusses ÿNecromancy ÿ(Gr. ÿÿ- Contact ÿwith ÿthe Dead). ÿ”There shall not be found ÿamong ÿyou anyone that maketh his son or daughter to pass through the ÿfire, or ÿthat ÿuses ÿdivination, ÿÿor an observer ÿof ÿtimes, ÿÿor ÿan enchanter, or a Witch, or a Charmer, or a consulter with Familiar spirits, or a Wizard, or a Necromancer.” ÿ(Deuteronomy 18:10,11). Space ÿdoes ÿnot permit us to quote the many scriptures we ÿcould use against this unholy fascination.

We ÿsee, ÿtherefore, ÿthat Ouija Boards and all kinds ÿof spiritualism ÿcan be nothing but communion with demons, ÿÿagainst scripture, ÿÿand ÿwe ÿmust remember that ÿGod ÿpassed ÿthe ÿDeath sentence ÿon all mediums that had familiar spirits and also ÿupon people consulting with them. ÿIt is sternly forbidden by God ÿas defiling. ÿWhy go to the Ouija Board when we can go to the ÿLord Jesus Christ? ÿThe Bible says, ÿ”For there is one God, ÿand ÿone mediator between God and Men, ÿthe man Christ Jesus.” (1 Timothy 2:5)

To ÿthose ÿwho ÿare constantly looking ÿfor ÿmiracles ÿor signs, ÿÿJesus says, ÿ”An evil and adulterous generation ÿseeketh after ÿa sign.” ÿ(Matthew 12:39). ÿAre you seeking after a ÿsign using the Ouija Board?
