the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like…” Galatians 5:19-21
Believers are sucked into the mystery of special effects and magic in movies and entertainment, but what many do not realize is that while they do this they are grieving the Holy Spirit and the devil is laughing out loud. The great falling away is happening and believers are wondering why they don't see the power of YHWH's Spirit moving in their lives. The art of deception is no longer creping up from behind but is blatantly in the face of people who call themselves believers. While they are supposed to be leading the body of Messiah to walk in the ways of righteousness, the enemy is encouraging them to eat of the tree of knowledge of good and evil. Mixing truth with lies is how he gets them to eat the poison that will ultimately kill their spirits.
The seduction is virtually complete. Most of Christianity’s top leaders have openly endorsed and embraced witchcraft, magic, and other demonic arts and devices. Christianity Today magazine called Harry Potter books "wonderful." I make this accusation boldly and without reservation. I have seen this evil day coming for many years. I have warned many about this terrible mixture of light with darkness. But, still it is here. Today’s strong delusion of satanic witchcraft has a fatal, claw-like grasp upon the very heart and soul of stained and rebellious Christianity.The world loves darkness rather than light. It only takes a little leaven to leaven the whole lump. Do what thou wilt is the motto of Satanism, yet much of Christianity has fallen for the doctrine that we can "enjoy" these things or even learn from them.
.
We are told in the book of Jude verse 4 to “contend for the faith once delivered to the saints.” Why instead are we heading right into New Age occultism and witchcraft while much of the “church” is embracing it as truth? Satan has worked hard to mix lies into the worship of the Creator to cause us to grieve the Holy Spirit, thereby cutting off our lifeline. If we are grieving the Holy Spirit, how can we then be led by Yahweh’s Spirit where He wants us to go to stay in His protective covering.
For years, I have warned the Christian world of the unscriptural, satanic, and magical messages and images contained in the books of famous author, C.S. Lewis. Although C.S. Lewis was one of the most quoted, admired, and beloved of all “Christian” writers and teachers, his own personal and doctrinal life was stigmatized by pagan beliefs, mythological imagery, sexual perversion, and adultery. He also mixed and confused Hindu and Greek gods with Christian heroes. In one instance, C.S. Lewis even equated Messiah Yeshua (Jesus) with the ancient Greek sun god Apollo, the son of the mythological Zeus. C.S. Lewis was most fond of expressing a belief in “Jesus”, followed by a clarifying exclamation, “Jesus was the fulfillment of myth.” According to Lewis, “Jesus” deserved worship because he was, “the myth that had come true.”
Lewis also taught in his novels, the Chronicles of Narnia series, that all service done by a person on behalf of Lucifer and the dark side was, in fact, also credited by Elohim as service to him! The Chronicles of Narnia series comes straight from the enemy. In Lewis’ nonfiction writings, we discover his belief in evolution, in the Catholic version of Mary, and in the odd notion that in our “next lives,” Christians may just become planets, stars, or other heavenly objects. Lewis also believed the Bible to be flawed, and suggested that “Jesus” was an ignorant prophet, regrettably tied to the Jewish messianic myth. He further suggested that “Jesus’” prophecies had failed to come to pass. Nevertheless, the fantasy books of C.S. Lewis have for decades been super sellers in both Christian and New Age occult bookstores.
There are also books that are sold in the Christian bookstores that propose to help you "Find God" through these witchcraft books. We don't need to "find God" through any witchcraft promoting books! We need to find Him through the pages of the Scriptures. It is so sad how Satan has perverted the truth and even the perception of how to find truth.
They are all grievous revolters, walking with slanders: they are brass and iron; they are all corrupters. The bellows are burned, the lead is consumed of the fire; the founder melteth in vain: for the wicked are not plucked away. Reprobate silver shall men call them, because Yahweh hath rejected them.
Jeremiah 6:28-30
This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good, traitors, heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of Elohim; Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away....Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds, reprobate concerning the faith.
II Timothy 3:1-5, 8
Unto the pure all things are pure: but unto them that are defiled and unbelieving is nothing pure; but even their mind and conscience is defiled. They profess that they know Elohim; but in works they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate.
Titus 1:15-16

The world loves what YAHWEH hates.
Witchcraft has snuck into "Christian" bookstores, fellowships, and our children's lives through many sources. But, as believers, we are called to expose the "unfruitful works of darkness" according to Ephesians 5:11. There are many wolves that have crept in and portrayed themselves as "believers". We need to know enough Scriptures to recognize the wolves' "doctrine". The enemy always mixes truth with his lies in order to get people to fall for it.
I pray that you will see the truth that I am about to share with you.
The Harry Potter witchcraft books are published by a British author, Ms. J.K. Rowling. The plots of these books are centered on the witchcraft and magical exploits of a young boy, Harry, who goes off to learn his craft at an academy of witchcraft and wizardry after his sorcerer parents are murdered by another sorcerer. As each book is released in this New York Times bestseller series, we find the content and theme growing darker and more involved in the deep things of Satan.
Millions of copies of these Harry Potter books are selling like hotcakes—and Christian children and parents are leading the pack in lusting after them. And why not? These kids have been fed the soul-darkening fantasies of occultist C.S. Lewis as if it is “good.” Their hearts and minds are already stained by the filth and degradation viewed daily on TV and by polluted music.
It was the apostle Paul who lashed out at the pagan lifestyle and practices rampant in society during the first century A.D. In the book of Acts chapter 19, verse 19, we find the encouraging statement that many new believers who had previously “used curious arts”—that is, sorcery, witchcraft, and magic—“brought their books together and burned them before all men…”
Imagine! These new believers took books much like C.S. Lewis’ Chronicles of Narnia and Rowlings’ Harry Potter volumes and had a big, public, book burning! And what was the end result of such incredibly bold behavior? The very next verse in the book of Acts reveals exactly what next happened: “So mightily grew the Word of God and prevailed.” Please read that inspiring statement again and think about the consequences. They brought out their magical and witchcraft books and publicly burned them, and “So mightily grew the Word of God and prevailed.”
Now, consider today’s results. In our 21st century society, Christians flock to the bookstores to obtain works of the curious arts. Thus, the Word of God is declared null and void in their lives and their children’s souls are turned over to Satan.
You say you don’t believe me? Well, then, what about Charles Colson, he who is so beloved by the Southern Baptists, by the Catholics, by the Episcopals, by all the Christian world? On his daily Breakpoint radio program, Colson advised parents to disregard the naysayers. The Harry Potter books are fine examples of good Christian-oriented literature, said Colson. They are, he added, highly recommended.
If that were not enough, we also have James Dobson’s Focus on the Family recommending the Harry Potter books as wholesome. Next, the editors of Christianity Today, the magazine founded by Billy Graham, called the Harry Potter series a “Book of Virtues with a preadolescent funnybone.” The magazine also praised the books as “wonderful examples of compassion, loyalty, courage, friendship, and even self-sacrifice.”
These recommendations were made in spite of the blatant and clear witchcraft prevalent in the Harry Potter books. In one scene in the novels, we find a professor whose leg is mangled by a three-headed dog. In another, a mysterious figure drinks blood from a unicorn carcass. In the books we see young Harry lying, breaking rules, making fun of and mocking adults, and seeking revenge. To defeat his foes, Harry uses magic and witchcraft rituals and methods. On his forehead, notably, is the rune symbol of the satanic lightning bolt.
Nevertheless, in response to Christians who write to him complaining, Charles Colson, head of Prison Fellowship, insists that the magic in the Potter books is not really occultic, just “inventive”. Other Christian leaders try to whitewash their failure to condemn these satanic novels by attempting to portray Harry’s magic as “White Witchcraft,” which they say is “good magic,” versus Black Witchcraft, which is “evil magic.” But in his Satanic Bible, the late Anton LaVey, High Priest of the Church of Satan, scoffed at such a distinction. “There is no difference in Satanism, between white and black witchcraft or magic,” sneered LaVey.
While many “Christians” either promote the idea of “good magic” and “white witchcraft” or is altogether silent, the true remnant is fighting these evil books. Parents in 28 states have sought to have the Harry Potter books banned at public school libraries. Yet, few dare mention the fact that the C.S. Lewis books continue to be sold in Christian bookstores, endorsed by Hank Hanegraaff, Chuck Colson, Billy Graham, and other leaders, and quoted each Sunday in dozens of “conservative” Southern Baptist and other churches! This phenomenon is only one striking example of the witchcraft explosion that has erupted and is now ravaging the world.
The horrors are only beginning and will escalate until Yeshua returns. Until He does, let us expose the evildoers (Ephesians 5:11) and let us take courage knowing that Yahweh is still on the throne. He sees, He knows, and His judgment is swift and certain. The remnant shall remain. We are called to be a righteous assembly without spot or wrinkle.
Please seriously consider these things and take them to heart. I only share them so that you may have blessings, not cursings.
Deuteronomy 18:10-12 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, Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer. For all that do these things are an abomination unto Yahweh: and because of these abominations Yahweh thy Elohim doth drive them out from before thee.
