Does the bible teach us to stay away from witchcraft??
What is witchcraft? What is the energy source of the practice?
In my opinion the latter questions must be answered in order to effectively answer the main question.
I want anyone's opinions as well as definitions according to sources such as bibles, dictionaries, Book of the Dead, Shetaut Neter, and so on.
Whats your opinion?
1. What is witchcraft?
using the following examples, I attempt to back up my opinion that alchemy, magic, or miracles are an act of witchcraft?? Do you agree? With my opinion?
witch- a practitioner of supernatural or magical acts.
craft- a skill.
thus
witchcraft- a skill pratice of supernatural or magical acts.
Witchcraft- when I think of witchcraft, I think of any miracle, paranormal, or alchemical act, or action performed, that is unexplainable to the society. This act can be positive or negative, good or evil, god or devil, both ways, in my opinion it is still witchcraft.
example 1: I bring a cigarette lighter to a society that lives in caves somewhere in asia. they dont understand what caused the fire to be lit, thus its magical, and Im declared a witch
.
example 2: or I can go to the stone age and make fire out of stones and wood. Again I am declared a witch based on the society's knowledge of the world and how it works.
example 3: I take in a diseased little boy from a villa in Haiti and give him the cure for the disease whcih I got from a hospital in NY. THe vaccination consists of chemicals and praying to the lord to help this boy recover in english. The boy is cured, and Im declared a witch.
example 4: I take in a diseased little boy from NY and give him the cure for the disease which I got from a Shaman in a villa in Haiti. The cure consists of using herbs and praying to the lord to help this boy recover.The boy is cured, and Im declared a witch.
In the process of ANY miracles, paranormal, or alchemical acts, ENERGY is required.
Whether it be healing people, or creating food from nothing, wine from water, or fire from 2 stones, levitation (walking on water), energy is needed.
To take it even further, simply breathing, and life itself requires energy.
Thus all beings of matter use or channel energy.
2. What is the energy source of a witch's practice?
In my opinion, the answer to that question is simple, considering Biblically Scientifically, Esoterically, and according to our own Kemetic masters, energy only has one source.
According to the bible, The supreme creator manifests EVERYTHING that Exists. This is not something that happened in the past only, this is an eternal event. God created, creates in the present, and is the ONLY source of creation for the future. Understand that there is no future, without god to sustain it.
This world is made of both energy, and matter, or ma'at. As said before, spirit, or energy, sustains matter. For instance, spirit sustains (my) body.
If this is true, then, can a witch create, or channel or good energy or bad energy?
In my opinion. No. According to the bible, there is no good or bad energy. They are only those that attempt to use energy for good, or evil.
For instance. God sustains BOTH Kane and Abel. The devil did not create Kane. Therefore the energy in Kane is God's energy. BUT is is Kane's choice whether he will use that energy, or spirit of God, for good or evil.
According to the bible there is only evil and good choices.
However this is not my final opinion. I would like to hear yours.
3. Did Jesus and Moses Practice magic? Are they practitioners of witchcraft?
Well first of all Moses and Jesus both wer learndt in Egypt. Feel free to add more info proving this.
With the combination of Jesus' genetic/spiritual bloodline + his waxing in Egypt, he goes to Galilee 2000+ years ago. He arrives to see a man dying of Leprosy. He focuses his energy/chakra/spirit, , puts his hand on the dudes head, and bam!!! the dude is healed. The man is cured.
Jesus conducted magical acts, ad Yes the spirit to do them come from God just as the spirit ANYONE uses to conduct magic is from god.
I currently cant find the biblical scriptures stating exactly this, but I KNOW the bible shows that Jesus GREW up for the first 12 years of his life, IN Egypt. And that young boy went to Israel and saw the lies of thier churches. Afterwhich he attempted to teach the truth which he obviously learned from the egyptians, as well as through his divine creation
Now the child continued to grow and to become spiritually strong. He lived in the wilderness until the day he appeared in Israel.
- Luke 1:80.
Now for moses, you can just read the following if necessary, but
"First Prophet of the God"
Moses "simply means 'born of'. The name normally required another name prefixed to it, such as Thothmoses (born of Thoth), Rameses (born of Ra) or Amenmosis (born of Amen) Whilst the 'moses' element is spelt slightly differently when rendered in English, they all mean the same thing and it seems very likely to us that either Moses himself or some later scribe dropped the name of an Egyptian god from the front of his name."
The birth narrative of Sargon I, who ruled over Babylon and Sumer hundred of years before Moses states his mother "set me in a basket of rushes; with bitumen she sealed my lid. She cast me into the river, which rose not over me."
"...The birth story is almost certainly a fiction created in the sixth century BC echoing, for the birth of the Jewish nation, the ancient theme of creation emerging from the waters."
- Christopher Knight & Robert Lomas, The Hiram Key: Pharaohs, Freemasons and the Discovery of the Secret Scrolls of Jesus
"And Moses became learned in all the wisdom of the Egyptians, and was mighty in words and in deeds."
- Acts 7:22
"Moses was a skilled performer of magical rituals and was deeply learned in the knowledge of the accompanying spells, incantations, and magical formulas of every description...[Moreover] the miracles which he wrought...suggest that he was not only a priest, but a magician of the highest order and perhaps even a Ker Heb
- Sir E. A. Wallis Budge, From Fetish to God in Ancient Egypt [Egyptian High Priest]."
"At the top of the hierarchy of priests was the high-priest, the sem priest, or 'First Prophet of the God'. He would have been an extrmely learned man, an elder of the temple, a man with considerable administrative ability and political sense. He would have been in charge of seeing that the temple and all its hodings ran smoothly, and officiating at the most important ceremonies. While normally such a man would have risen to his position through the ranks, it was the pharaoh's perogative to place whomever he wanted in that office.
- Bob Brier, Ancient Egyptian Magic
"Moses, a son of the tribe of Levi, educated in Egypt and initiated at Heliopolis, became a High Priest of the Brotherhood under the reign of Pharaoh Amenhotep [Akhnaton]. He was elected by the Hebrews as their chief and he adapted to the ideas of his people the science and philosophy which he had obtained in the Egyptian mysteries; proofs of this are to be found in the symbols, in the Initiations, and in his precepts and commandments....The dogma of an 'only god' which he taught was the Egyptian Brotherhood interpretation and teaching of the Pharaoh who established the first monotheistic religion known to man."
- Egyptian High Priest Manetho (3rd Century BC)
"If Moses was a High Priest of the Brotherhood under Akhnaton, as Manetho states, but did not lead the exodus
- William Bramley, The Gods of Eden
until the reign of Rameses II, as many historians believe, then Moses must have been an extremely old man at the time of the exodus. (Rameses II did not rule until almost one hundred years after Akhnaton.) The Bible, in Deuteronomy 34:7 states that Moses was 120 years old when he died."
Moses and the Egyptian Priesthood
Finally , My current answer to the question? Does the bible, or Christian religion teach against Withcraft?
No, the bible does not teach against witchcraft, it teaches against using it for evil.
The word devil simply means doers of evil. There is no devil. There are only evil doers.
Evil is an act out of ignorance of god. An act of earthly, and material perception.
Good is an act that is beyond earth, and One with God.
Now, if you are an evil doer, I cant deal with you. Its that simple.
(3)You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God... (7)Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
James 4:4,7,8
a Biblical verse Killah Priest put me onto on this track.
my people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. "Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.
-Hosea 4:6
