Deuteronomy 18:10-13 KJV “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, ¹¹ Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. ¹² For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee.”

Satan knows we are commanded to keep away from occultists. So guess who he’s gonna bring right into our midst? That’s right, people who practice the occult. They’re not always easy to spot. Just as Satan hides his true identity his ministers do the same. (2 Corinthians 11:13-15) Some will pretend to be Christians. They know enough about our beliefs to sound like us. Many act like they want to learn about God. This is how they get close to you. Some will claim to be new believers. So when it becomes apparent they don’t really know the doctrine they can always say, “Remember, I’m new.” This they often do when an attempt to persuade you is unsuccessful. These know that God condemns their lifestyle. They know it because they’ve heard or read passages in the Bible like Deuteronomy 18:10-13. Hence we are their targets:

Revelation 12:17 AMP “So the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went off to wage war on the rest of her children (seed), those who keep and obey the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus [holding firmly to it and bearing witness to Him].”

How do you think the Devil (the dragon) wages war on us? Through his human minions, especially those who practice the occult. If the Christian is skilled with his/her sword (the word of God) some of these people will be easy to spot. And the believer would avoid them:

Romans 16:17 AMP “I urge you, brothers and sisters, to keep your eyes on those who cause dissensions and create obstacles or introduce temptations [for others] to commit sin, [acting in ways] contrary to the doctrine which you have learned. Turn away from them.”

DON’T TOLERATE THEM

Yes, many occultists are meeting with Christians and we don’t even know it. Not only in our churches, at work, at school, and everywhere. They will always seek to befriend a true servant of God. That’s their job. Can you imagine being married to a practicer of witchcraft? That happens too. Jesus says a tree is known by its fruit. What is the fruit of a witch/wizard?  Again, It won’t always be obvious who among you is doing witchcraft. They disguise themselves just like their father the Devil. One thing I can tell you about an occultist; they will always contradict God. And will encourage you to do the same. 

Yep, there are Jezebels (male and female) among the church. This shouldn’t surprise us and it shouldn’t be tolerated:

Revelation 2:20-23 ESV “But I have this against you, that you tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess and is teaching and seducing my servants to practice sexual immorality and to eat food sacrificed to idols. I gave her time to repent, but she refuses to repent of her sexual immorality. Behold, I will throw her onto a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her I will throw into great tribulation, unless they repent of her works, and I will strike her children dead. And all the churches will know that I am he who searches mind and heart, and I will give to each of you according to your works.”

These are strong words from Jesus. When Christians tolerate those with the Jezebel spirit it will cost them. Are you keeping company with people who promote sin yet call themselves believers? Listen to Jesus and separate yourself. Repent while there is still little time.
