Appendix 10
forbidden spiritualism, (scripture)
Deuteronomy 17.2-5
2 “If there be found among you, within any of thy gates which the LORD thy God giveth thee, man or woman, that hath wrought wickedness in the sight of the LORD thy God, in transgressing his covenant,
3 And hath gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded;
4 And it be told thee, and thou hast heard of it, and enquired diligently, and, behold, it be true, and the thing certain, that such abomination is wrought in Israel:
5 Then shalt thou bring forth that man or that woman, which have committed thatwickedthing, unto thy gates, even that man or that woman, and shalt stone them with stones, till they die.”
Deuteronomy 18.9-14
9 “When thou art come into the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.
10 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.
13 Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God.
14 For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.”

This excellent post is an eye-opener. Because these dangers are surrounding us every day.
Divination occurs 12 times in the Bible. You mentioned divination in Deuteronomy 18:10
Jeremiah 14:14 Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.
Ezekiel 13:6,7
6 They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The LORD saith: and the LORD hath not sent them: and they have made others to hope that they would confirm the word.
7 Have ye not seen a vain vision, and have ye not spoken a lying divination, whereas ye say, The LORD saith it; albeit I have not spoken.
Enchantment(s) 13 times in the Bible. The number 13 represents evil. However, in 1Corinthians 13, the number 13 represents charity. Numbers in the Bible also can have their opposites.
Forbidden spiritualism, God is saying don’t do it throughout His Word..
Specially Millenniums nowadays are practicing spiritualism, and it is increasing, like drawing magic circles and divination writing.
It gives me the creeps.

Jeremiah 14.11-15
11 “Then said the LORD unto me, Pray not for this people for their good.
12 When they fast, I will not hear their cry; and when they offer burnt offering and an oblation, I will not accept them: but I will consume them by the sword, and by the famine, and by the pestilence.
13 Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, the prophets say unto them, Ye shall not see the sword, neither shall ye have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.
14 Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.
15 Therefore thus saith the LORD concerning the prophets that prophesy in my name, and I sent them not, yet they say, Sword and famine shall not be in this land; By sword and famine shall those prophets be consumed.”
Ezekiel 13.3-9
3 “Thus saith the Lord GOD; Woe unto the foolish prophets, that follow their own spirit, and have seen nothing!
4 O Israel, thy prophets are like the foxes in the deserts.
5 Ye have not gone up into the gaps, neither made up the hedge for the house of Israel to stand in the battle in the day of the LORD.
6 They have seen vanity and lying divination, saying, The LORD saith: and the LORD hath not sent them: and they have made others to hope that they would confirm the word.
7 Have ye not seen a vain vision, and have ye not spoken a lying divination, whereas ye say, The LORD saith it; albeit I have not spoken?
8 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; Because ye have spoken vanity, and seen lies, therefore, behold, I am against you, saith the Lord GOD.
9 And mine hand shall be upon the prophets that see vanity, and that divine lies: they shall not be in the assembly of my people, neither shall they be written in the writing of the house of Israel, neither shall they enter into the land of Israel; and ye shall know that I am the Lord GOD.”

EXACTLY. I knew you would understand by getting the surrounding verses together. The more we search the better the Bible gets.

Yes indeed it does miss Jackie.
And I’ll have you to know something that I believe will bless you.
Your obedience to God has reverberated across many ponds.
You see, what I haven’t publicly revealed is that I have taken a fresh stab at Facebook since my book was published.
And although I can’t stand most of the culture there, I’m taking a different approach to it than before.
And those verses that you gave me, I’ve already placed them in different strategic spots on Facebook as a warning to those who post fraudulent posts on behalf of God.
If you hadn’t been obedient to God in sharing those verses with me, I doubt that I would have thought about them.
But because you did, I’ve placed them in places where they’re much needed.
All glory goes to God for sure. You and I can do nothing without Jesus guiding us. But it’s helpful to encourage my brethren when they’ve been used by God in a productive way.
God bless you and your family miss Jackie. 🙂

Facebook is left, as left can be. However, it’s where the people are. Good luck to you now you are on Facebook again. With the Word of God guiding you, you cannot go wrong.
God bless and keep you and your family too.
