Black magic is an ancient practice that has been forbidden in the Old Testament by God. It is believed to be fun and wholesome, but it can also lead to evil and selfish purposes. Christians can trust in God’s protection when they submit to His authority, but if they actively suppress or use white magic, both are considered evil.
The links between black magic and religion are complex, with some Christians believing that this biblical warning against all occult practices implies a direct prohibition of any fantasy that includes elements of magic within its legendarium. In 1320, Pope John XXII launched a doctrinal enterprise that assimilates practices of black magic into the crime of heresy. As an expert in ancient magic and early Christianity, I study how magic helped early adherents develop a Christian identity, which included morality.
Christian views on magic vary widely among denominations and individuals. Many Christians actively condemn magic as satanic, holding that it opens the door to evil. The source of black magic’s power is fear, and academic writers have documented the life and death power of pagan magic over people who believe in it.
White magic, also known as Wicca, worships the creation rather than the Creator, and while they may not call on the devil, they may worship the creation. In Acts 8:9-24, the encounter between Simon Peter and Simon Magus is mentioned, but the author later gave up as a Christian. Exodus 22:18 warns against suffering a witch to live, and the church community I joined is a reminder of the importance of discerning one’s beliefs and practices in order to avoid harm.

📹 The Bible Changed My Mind About Crystals
Crystals are often associated with new age healing, so it makes sense that Christians would avoid them at all cost. But after some …
I’ve been having the same thoughts this year. I know they are used in witchcraft and Wiccan rituals but why do they only allowed to have them. I found the same scriptures and places in the Bible too. Well, I for one am going to take these crystals and also the rainbow back. We don’t have to be afraid of them. So what if we have to explain ourselves. It is okay. And as for special powers, well, I think this entire world and our existence is pretty magical already. I wouldn’t be surprised if God did leave them with some unusual qualities. We also use plants and tree bark for medicinal value. At the very least it is a beautiful creation of God and may be used by all of us in my opinion.
Totally agree. Rocks and crystals were created by God for us to be reminded of His mighty wonders. My parents were “rock hounds”. belonged to a rock club and had many adventures out west and in Canada going to rock quarries searching for semi-precious stones, cut, polished and shaped them for jewelry. I have many crystals and stones throughout the house because they are so beautiful, also love shells. Each one is unique. Crystals are used in clocks so they do provide some energy but I don’t believe they can heal us or guide us.
Dear Sister, Praise the Lord, My spouse gifted me on my wedding anniversary the platinum ring with tiny diamond engraved in it and after one year now due to some financial crisis took place in my home people saying that it all came by wearing that tiny diamond ring 😢 I was like how come this tiny stone can become an blocker for God’s power?? Iam really perplexed. I personally don’t believe that wearing diamond rings causes badness and famine or financial crisis or whatever. Our Lord is mighty God and this small stone can stop his blessing’s to reach us?? I laugh at that however please advise on my point.
Enjoy those beautiful stones and crystals gemstones they are created by God for us to enjoy and appreciate the Power of God just like admiring awe and inspired by nature like the mountains. This inspirational feelings that they evoke should bring us closer to our worship faith and belief in the Power of God whom the only one can create perfect pretty beauty k! Godbless k!
God created the beautiful Crystals/Minerals …. etc. Crystals/Minerals have vibrations. They can destroy a life or help a life. Just like a double blind with a Placebo. Sometimes, someone one just needs to believe something to get out of their own way. I believe in God and Collect Crystals/Minerals. I believe both help me to an extent as I’m an Empath. Most couldn’t imagine the life I’ve lived or what I feel daily. But, I’m 100% okay with that. As I have God, My Angels, and all of God’s creations to get me through.
God made things to heal us like plants, why are they Evil they are beautiful stones,n who knows maybe it can heal ppl, I don’t think you should worship anything but God tho but I do believe they have good energy God made all these things to help us,He may doctors didn’t he? Anything is possible with God❤🎉
