I wanted to mention that I’ve noticed a lot of TV shows recently airing with an interwoven theme of speaking to the dead. One such show previewed with the statement, “It’s not a curse; it’s a gift.” Wow! That amazes me because it sooo reminds me of the serpent’s comment directly to Eve – a direct contrast to the position of God’s voice: “You will not surely die, for God knows that in the day you eat thereof, you’re eyes will be opened knowing good and evil.”
That is exactly what is taking place within these shows. They are making the claim that by engaging in the activity that God says will bring a curse (communication with the dead or communication through a familiar spirit), that ones “eyes” will be open. The claim is being made that one can have revelation/information through a supernatural source. However, even in the shows the person is plagued with confusion, fits of jealousy, rage, a murdering spirit, constantly having to engage in lying – just to name of few! Oh, but that’s a gift (uh, huh, *sarcasm*)
Can you tell…this is a concern to me?! Because it is through the trading of the truth for a lie that people are seduced into deception/destruction. Many of the people I deal with at our church do not know the scriptures that well. So how can they guard themselves against these things? Ah, that’s where the shepherds/the mature are to oversee. So I offer this warning so you can guard the ones you encounter that are not aware: “Do you realize that this show supports…?”
