Halloween and the Last Great Deception

By Lisa Grace

People believe what they hear. When you repeat falsehoods over and over, people believe it. One bad horror movie with incorrect theology, can re-write the most authoritative book written on the subject, The Holy Scriptures.

For example, on October 30th, 1938, seventy five years ago yesterday, a radio broadcast of a dramatic science fiction story of a Martian invasion called War of the Worlds caused panic up and down the east coast of the United States. http://history1900s.about.com/od/1930s/a/warofworlds.htm you can listen to the original show here: https://archive.org/details/OrsonWellesMrBruns
How foolish to think people really believed we were being invaded by Martians. How could people be so easily deceived? Because they believe what they hear if it appears to be coming from someone with special knowledge.

But that couldn’t happen today, could it?

Well, it is. Right now you can watch television shows, listen to radio programs, buy books, that all teach you, “How to communicate with the dead.” This is last great deception.

Yes, empaths are getting information—from demons! 1/3 of the angels fell, and they can appear to be angels of light. What better disguise than to act as some one’s passed on loved one?

What do all the mediums say?

Go into the light.
Your loved ones are in a better place.
Your loved ones are with you.
They don’t want you to worry.
It doesn’t matter what you believe, when you die, everything will be fine.

This, however, is not what the Bible says.
The prophet Isaiah said it best: (Is 8:19) And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?

That’s right. The Bible says to seek God. If you have questions, go to Him. Read His Word. The answers are in there and not in the words of lying spirits.

The mediums themselves are being mis-lead. If they knew their Scriptures, and had an ounce of discernment, they would know this. This is why the Holy Scriptures forbid communicating with “spirits.” The very spirits that want human interaction do so only because their ultimate goal is to lead humans down the wide road, the path of false doctrine and feel good theology.

The penalty of suffering a witch not to live or mediums, because it was better the one die by unwittingly acting as a pawn of the evil ones, than to have them lead many to their destruction. (Ex 22:18);
(Lev 19:31) Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.
(Lev 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.
The warnings go on and on throughout almost every book of the Bible. There are around fifty of them.

The Holy Scriptures give very clear messages over and over:

The dead are dead.
The dead “sleep.”
The dead know nothing.
There is a great gulf between the living and the dead.
When Christ died, He was dead for three days! He did not immediately go up to the Father and heaven. He died. He was DEAD, and He was buried. (1 Cr 15:4)

Only on the third day did He go  up to his Father in heaven. He warned Mary not to touch him, BECAUSE HE had not been to the Father yet. John 2:17 (KJV) Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

And what did Jesus do? He cast out demons. He didn’t sit and talk to them! He wasn’t mis-lead.

The great deception is that so many are willing to talk with the demons (ghosts, i.e. spirits, which are all fallen evil types of angels), which will do nothing but lead them away from the truth. The demons tell just enough truth, so you and the mediums will believe the ultimate lie.

I leave you with this warning: 1 Thessalonians 4:13 (KJV) But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.

So today, a day most of the world celebrates the evil things in this realm and the next. Get educated, and do not be deceived.

Well said. especially for this time of year. My novel also deals with the paranormal, and a Christian man who thinks he sees a ghost and seeks the help of a psychic. I don't have a release date yet, but my website is Reginasmeltzer@wix.com/Reginasmeltzer.
We need more Christians to stand up against what our society sees as parlor games or innocent fun.

Thank you Jen A and Regina Smeltzer. My hope is others will start speaking out and getting those who turn to psychics to read their Holy Scriptures instead.
