For most people, its easy to stay away from the "dark side!" It's easy because, humans generally don't like the look of devils and demons as portrayed by artists.
Pitchforks and long tails is not something appealing at all. But would you believe me if I told you that spiritualism has a beautiful side? Would you believe me if I told you that more and more people are being attracted to, and practising witchcraft?
It would seem that spiritualism really does have a beautiful, but equally deadly.
Mediatate:
Leviticus 19:31 - Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God.
Leviticus 20:6 - And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.
There's really not much for me to say on this blog except that spiritualism has been steadily coming to the front. The Bible, in numerous places speaks of "diviners, divination, those that mutter and peep, astrologers" et cetera, et cetera.
What the Bible also highlights quite clearly is that spiritualism will have a huge part to play in the final scenes of planet earth. So let me share this video with you and then, outline what the inspired writers have to say about what you've just watched and what we are to expect.
Listen carefully...
What do the inspired writers have to say?
Revelation 13:13-14 - And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men, And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
Revelation 16:13-14 - And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet. For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the battle of that great day of God Almighty.
What will some of those miracles look like in our day?
What...how can I argue against that?
Fear not...The Word of God is the "great detector of error."
2 Corinthians 11:14-15 - And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.
2 SM 53.3 - We need not be deceived. Wonderful scenes, with which Satan will be closely connected, will soon take place. God's Word declares that Satan will work miracles. He will make people sick, and then will suddenly remove from them his satanic power. They will then be regarded as healed. These works of apparent healing will bring Seventh-day Adventists to the test. Many who have had great light will fail to walk in the light, because they have not become one with Christ.
CH 323.2 - There are many ways of practicing the healing art, but there is only one way that Heaven approves.
Do you have a thorough grounding regarding what the Bible says regarding those that have died?

Here are a few more statements before we finish up:
Genesis 3:3-4 - But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
Spiritualism declares that there is no death, no sin, no judgment, no retribution; that “men are unfallen demigods;” that desire is the highest law; and that man is accountable only to himself. The barriers that God has erected to guard truth, purity, and reverence are broken down, and many are thus emboldened in sin. Does not such teaching suggest an origin similar to that of demon worship?
PP 688.1
It is true that spiritualism is now changing its form and, veiling some of its more objectionable features, is assuming a Christian guise. But its utterances from the platform and the press have been before the public for many years, and in these its real character stands revealed. These teachings cannot be denied or hidden.
GC 557.2
Even in its present form, so far from being more worthy of toleration than formerly, it is really a more dangerous, because a more subtle, deception. While it formerly denounced Christ and the Bible, it now professes to accept both. But the Bible is interpreted in a manner that is pleasing to the unrenewed heart, while its solemn and vital truths are made of no effect.
GC 558.1
We have only just scratched the surface with regards to this "mammoth deception" there is so much more to say, but it will have to wait till a later post. Until then, study the Word of God, believe the Word of God, practise the Word of God and He will shield you from the coming storm of spiritualism!
Maranatha!
