Clueless about Sorcerers?

<< < (3/5) > >>

Dave in Tenn:
"But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolators, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone: which is the second death."

You know, that doesn't leave too many out...and that's just guilt by the letter of the Law.  Take into account the Spirit of the Law left by Christ (lust=adultery, hate=murder, etc.) and most of the rest are guilty.  Then consider that if we offend in one, we offend in all...and I thank God for His grace of Fire now AND then.  And that's just for ME.  These folks are my neighbors and family too.

I think the "drugs" subject is a joke. Because it is mainly defined by society. You have people who drink alcohol in large amounts and love to proclaim they don't do "drugs."  ???

So many things can effect your mind, emotions etc. The idea that you can be or become more holy by not doing certain "drugs" is nonsense. I don't smoke or drink. But I do take drugs. Most will call it medicine. When the law says it is OK to take them, then we call it "medicine?" I guess it makes people feel better to say they take "medicine" versus "drugs." Have you drank a Pepsi lately? Your taking drugs! Add another "do" or "not do" to the religious list. ::)

Stevernator:
Yeah good points whoami and Dave. Theres a lot of politics that go into it I suppose. Hope I didnt offend anyone.

OBrenda:
I remember when I was a little girl, my parents told me and my Sister not to roll around on the ground outside while playing.  So naturally when no one was around we did it anyways.  After all what could be wrong with it, and it was such fun? ???

Then one night my Mom was combing out my hair, and she found a tick in my scalp.  To my utter horror, it was then that they announced to us that this is why they told us not to roll around outside.  If they had told me I was going to get a blood sucking insect in my hair, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have disobeyed them.  I actually felt betrayed by them for not explaining it to me.

But then I have this experience I had with the "evil/tick" actually embedded in my skin, that takes away all temptation or illusions of fun from it, were if I was just told about it, I may think the fun is worth the chance....
(It might not happen to me)   This is how I see Sin in my life. 

That is why I'm curious about what Sorcery means.
I think I understand better now:
We all have things we use to drug or distract ourselves from reality with.
We have all searched for ways to control and know what tommorrow will bring. 

Thanks For the Help,
Brenda

George, I believe that you will really benefit from the biblestudy that Ray did on Repentance. It blew some cobwebs right out of my mind, that's for sure!!!! You my friend have nothing to be ashamed off.  We are all in the same boat, just different stories, names and places....you are exactly where you need to be.

Love in Christ
Heidi
