Do not turn to mediums or
necromancers; do not seek them
out, and so make yourselves
unclean by them: I am the
Lord your
God.
(Leviticus 19:31)
ESV
If there is found among you,
within any of your towns that the
Lord your
God is giving you, a man or woman
who does what is evil in the sight
of the Lord
your God, in transgressing his
covenant, and has gone and served
other gods and worshiped them, or
the sun or the moon or any of the
host of heaven, which I have
forbidden, and it is told you and
you hear of it, then you shall
inquire diligently, and if it is
true and certain that such an
abomination has been done in
Israel, then you shall bring out
to your gates that man or woman
who has done this evil thing, and
you shall stone that man or woman
to death with stones.
(Deuteronomy 17:2-5)
ESV
There shall not be found among you
anyone who burns his son or his
daughter as an offering, anyone
who practices divination or tells
fortunes or interprets omens, or a
sorcerer or a charmer or a medium
or a necromancer or one who
inquires of the dead, for whoever
does these things is an
abomination to the
Lord. And
because of these abominations the
Lord your
God is driving them out before
you.
(Deuteronomy 18:10-12)
ESV
The natural person does not accept
the things of the Spirit of God,
for they are folly to him, and he
is not able to understand them
because they are spiritually
discerned.
(1 Corinthians 2:14)
ESV
Now the works of the flesh are
evident: sexual immorality,
impurity, sensuality, idolatry,
sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy,
fits of anger, rivalries,
dissensions, divisions, envy,
drunkenness, orgies, and things
like these. I warn you, as I
warned you before, that those who
do such things will not inherit
the kingdom of God.
(Galatians 5:19-21)
ESV
Now the Spirit expressly says that
in later times some will depart
from the faith by devoting
themselves to deceitful spirits
and teachings of demons,
(1 Timothy 4:1)
ESV
All Scripture is breathed out by
God and profitable for teaching,
for reproof, for correction, and
for training in righteousness,
(2 Timothy 3:16)
ESV
For the word of God is living and
active, sharper than any two-edged
sword, piercing to the division of
soul and of spirit, of joints and
of marrow, and discerning the
thoughts and intentions of the
heart.
(Hebrews 4:12)
ESV
But false prophets also arose
among the people, just as there
will be false teachers among you,
who will secretly bring in
destructive heresies, even denying
the Master who bought them,
bringing upon themselves swift
destruction.
(2 Peter 2:1)
ESV
Beloved, do not believe every
spirit, but test the spirits to
see whether they are from God, for
many false prophets have gone out
into the world.
(1 John 4:1)
ESV
For many deceivers have gone out
into the world, those who do not
confess the coming of Jesus Christ
in the flesh. Such a one is the
deceiver and the antichrist. Watch
yourselves, so that you may not
lose what we have worked for, but
may win a full reward. Everyone
who goes on ahead and does not
abide in the teaching of Christ,
does not have God. Whoever abides
in the teaching has both the
Father and the Son. If anyone
comes to you and does not bring
this teaching, do not receive him
into your house or give him any
greeting, for whoever greets him
takes part in his wicked works.
(2 John 1:7-11)
ESV

When theology erodes and
organization crumbles, when the
institutional framework of
religion begins to break up, the
search for a direct experience
which people can feel to be
religious facilitates the rise of
cults.
--Daniel
Bell – American Sociologist Born
