...answer on 'curses' continued from...

...The Old Testament had instructions for the Israelite society then. Among all the other instructions God then gave, instructions as to witchcraft applied. People into witchcraft believe in their craft and not in their Creator. Belief is an important thing.

The principles contained within a part of the Mosaic Law were and still are basically fine principles for society to follow in their relationships with each other. Too bad some preachers do not stop engaging in modern witchcraft!

Deuteronomy 18:10-12 "There shall not be found among you any one that makes his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that uses divination or an observer of times or an enchanter or a witch or a charmer or a consulter with familiar spirits or a wizard or a necromancer."

2Chronicles 33:6 "And he caused his children to pass through the fire in the valley of the son of Hinnom. Also he observed times and used enchantments and used witchcraft and dealt with a familiar spirit.(one that a person knows, such as the alleged spirit of a dead person).and with wizards. He wrought much evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke him to anger."

Deuteronomy 18:21,22 "And if thou say in your heart, How shall we know the word which the Lord has not spoken? When a prophet speaks in the name of the Lord, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing which the Lord has not spoken, but the prophet has spoken it presumptuously. You shall not be afraid of him."

There were always many forms of witchcraft.(2Kings 9:22; again, Deuteronomy 18:10-12 or just above; Daniel 4:7; Isaiah 2:6).and people who would place a curse upon another or become psychics:.Acts 16:16 "And it came to pass, as we went to prayer, a certain damsel possessed with a spirit of divination met us, which brought her masters much gain by soothsaying.(predictionists, a psychic)." Daniel 2:27,28 "Daniel answered in the presence of the king and said: The secret which the king has demanded cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, show unto the king? But there is a God in heaven that reveals secrets and makes known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Your dream and the visions of thy head upon thy bed, are these....."

-What does God think about it all?

Some believe that God passes curses on to succeeding generations. Does He?

"Dear Lord, So far today, I am doing alright. I have not gossiped, lost my temper,
been greedy, grumpy, nasty, selfish or self-indulgent. I have not whined, cursed
or eaten any chocolate. However, I am going to get out of bed in a few minutes,
and I will need a lot more help after that. Amen."
...John Maxwell, author of.Today Matters
