From: jesus_is_lord To: List Member Subject: Wicca Date: Friday, August 11, 2000 12:54 PM jesus_is_lord Dear CHRISTIAN Friends: Greetings in the name of the ONLY wise God and Saviour Jesus Christ. **************************** I hear from Wiccans (witches and warlocks) from time to time but in the past week or so, I've heard from two or three of them. I do not know if they are all from the same coven or not. Early this morning, just after midnight, I heard from a man identifying himself as a Wicca high [should be low-down] priest. Jesus can save this man. Jesus can do ANYTHING but fail. Hallelujah and amen. The Wiccan "high priest" wrote in response to our article on Wicca http://www.jesus-is-lord.com/wicca. He told me how wrong it was and how they do not worship the devil. The devil got his mind so mixed up. Satan is a great deceiver. He is the author of confusion. Let's take this "high" priest as an example. He said he does NOT worship Lucifer yet he said that Lucifer was stolen from the pagans (witches consider themselves pagan). Look at the contradictory statements he made, all within the same lengthy email-- (1) [here he says Lucifer was a positive name] "Lucifer was a positive name, until the christians got a hold of it" (2) [here he says Lucifer was stolen from pagans] "And pan is not the devil! THE NAME LUCIFER WAS STOLEN FROM THE PAGANS ALSO!" (3) [here he says Satan is Christian and Lucifer is not. We learn the name Lucifer from our King James Bible. Sorry NIVers, there is no "Lucifer" in your Bible] "Lucifer and satan are different. Satan is christian, lucifer is not, but it was stolen, just as satanists have stolen from the pagans." I did not answer all this nonsense. He told me a 100 different things including I need to go to a website for religious tolerance. I ain't tolerant for nothing but the truth! And the only place I find that is my King James 1611. I am going to provide my email response to the devil-worshippin' warlock. It is lengthy so I'll conclude this email with it. After receiving my email, this warlock wrote me back cussing me out with terrible blasphemy. I will not even put part of what he said to me. But I will tell you what I did. I replied to his email by including his profane message to me followed by one scripture-- John 8:44 YE ARE OF YOUR FATHER THE DEVIL, AND THE LUSTS OF YOUR FATHER YE WILL DO. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. WHEN HE SPEAKETH A LIE, HE SPEAKETH OF HIS OWN FOR HE IS A LIAR AND THE FATHER OF IT. for Jesus' sake, tracy -- http://www.jesus-is-lord.com ...I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD. And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house. Ezekiel 2:4, 6 *****STOP BEING SILLY AND RIDICULOUS***** I wouldn't be surprised if he was trying to conjure up some silly, ineffectual curse on me right now. When you live for the Lord, when you live clean, the devil will not prevail over you. I ask you to pray for that man and his coven. Pray that he will get no satisfaction from running around naked worshippin' trees and rocks and the moon. Burnin' incense and whippin' each other. May the conviction of the Lord burn heavy in his heart and mind. The warlock keeps writing me back even as I am writing this email and I know the Lord is doing some work, hallelujah. The Lord is breaking some things down to him and he is feebly trying to resist the conviction. Let it SINK IN, O LORD! LET IT SINK IN! Whippin' each other (not all Wiccans do this)...When Elijah faced the prophets of Baal at the "showdown" the devil worshippers started cutting theyselves in order to get their god to burn up the sacrifice. Elijah let 'em have it too. People need to see how ridiculous they are so they can stop, turn to God and say "I repent! I was a fool!" 1 Kings 18:26 And they took the bullock which was given them, and they dressed it, AND CALLED ON THE NAME OF BAAL from morning even until noon, saying, O Baal, hear us. But there was no voice, nor any that answered. And THEY LEAPED UPON THE ALTAR which was made. 18:27 And it came to pass at noon, that ELIJAH MOCKED THEM, AND SAID, CRY ALOUD: FOR HE IS A GOD; EITHER HE IS TALKING OR HE IS PURSUING OR HE IS IN A JOURNEY, OR PERADVENTURE HE SLEEPETH, AND MUST BE AWAKED. 18:28 And they cried aloud, and CUT THEMSELVES AFTER THEIR MANNER with knives and lancets, till the blood gushed out upon them. 18:29 And it came to pass, when midday was past, and they prophesied until the time of the offering of the evening sacrifice, that there was neither voice, nor any to answer, nor any that regarded. This is a good story to read. There ain't but ONE true God. He is the One that MADE the trees, rocks, stars, streams. He done warned the people in His word to stop being ridiculous-- Romans 1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became VAIN in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible MAN, and to BIRDS, and fourfooted BEASTS, and CREEPING THINGS. 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and WORSHIPPED AND SERVED THE CREATURE MORE THAN THE CREATOR, who is blessed for ever. Amen. I ask that you pray for me too-- Ephesians 6:19 And for me, THAT UTTERANCE MAY BE GIVEN UNTO ME, THAT I MAY OPEN MY MOUTH BOLDLY, TO MAKE KNOWN THE MYSTERY OF THE GOSPEL Colossians 4:3 Withal praying also for us, that God would OPEN UNTO US A DOOR OF UTTERANCE, TO SPEAK THE MYSTERY OF CHRIST, for which I am also in bonds: *****MY EMAIL RESPONSE TO THE WICCAN "HIGH PRIEST"***** [note: as they often do, the priest said witchcraft is older than "Christianity". Witchcraft is not older than worship of the true God. It came up in OPPOSITION to the worship of the true God. Remember the "priest" cussed me out in response to this email.] Dear Friend: ...Satan, your father, is also known as Pan, Lucifer (this is a Bible name), Maitreya, Cernunnos, the Horned god, the Dark Lord of Death, etc. The Bible says that he is "the god of this world" and that he is a great deceiver. You have submitted yourself to his authority and there you will remain unless you listen to your conscience and give the TRUE and LIVING God your allegiance. There is only ONE way. His name is Jesus Christ! Oh yeah and hallelujah! The blood of Jesus is your ONLY hope! I pray that all your works will come to nought and that your eyes and ears will be opened. I pray that you will bow the knee on this side of eternity. It is your choice but either way you will bend over and bow your knee to the Lord Jesus Christ. Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 2:10 That AT THE NAME OF JESUS EVERY KNEE SHOULD BOW, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling. 2:13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure. 2:14 Do all things without murmurings and disputings: 2:15 That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world; 2:16 Holding forth the word of life; that I may rejoice in the day of Christ, that I have not run in vain, neither laboured in vain. 2:17 Yea, and if I be offered upon the sacrifice and service of your faith, I joy, and rejoice with you all. 2:18 For the same cause also do ye joy, and rejoice with me. You have no power. Jesus gives you an overview of your choices-- Matthew 21:44 And whosoever shall fall ON THIS STONE shall be broken: but on whomsoever it shall fall, it will grind him to powder. In other words, you will submit to the Lordship of Jesus Christ (be broken of your rebellion, disobedience, lawlessness, unholiness, uncleaness, crookedness, corruptness, evilness) OR you will be utterly consumed in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone--but you won't die. God is the Judge of all the earth. He knows YOU, my friend. He knows YOU. Your lusts, your reasoning, your inward parts, your actions, your lies, your rebellion, your plans, EVERYTHING. I don't care how dark or how remote your habitation is, HE IS THERE. And He is keeping a record. When you think nobody is around, He is there. In spite of ALL your evil, His love was manifested for you at the cross. When Jesus hung up there, He took upon His sinless body ALL of your evil. ALL OF IT. And He was QUALIFIED to do it because He is God in the flesh. Oh, hallelujah and amen. Thank you, Jesus. And then on top of all that love, praise Him, He got up from the grave on the third day, hallelujah. Even DEATH could not keep His body in the grave, praise Him. To THIS day, He is raising men, women, boys and girls FROM THE DEAD. You see I was dead in trespasses and sins. A whoremonger. A reprobate. Profane, unholy, lawless, disobedient. In this world's eyes I was doing fine! But in the eyes of a holy God, I was a pitiful mess. I was on the trash heap of this world. What desolation I felt inside even in the midst of doing all the stuff you're supposed to do--college, travelling, reading, eating out, amusement parks, symposiums, etc. But, praise God, ONE LOVELY DAY! THANK YOU, JESUS! ONE LOVELY DAY, THE GRACE OF GOD APPEARED TO ME JUST LIKE IT IS APPEARING TO YOU RIGHT NOW. JESUS DREW ME, HE WOOED ME, AND FRIEND NOW I GIVE HIM ALL THE GLORY. Psalms 40:2 He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. 40:3 And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD. This saying is come to pass in me. It can come to pass in you because Jesus can do ANYTHING but fail. He can even take a wicked, Wiccan high priest, and make him a child of the true and living God. No bounds. No bounds. But you got to REPENT AND BELIEVE THE REPORT. Back to me. I am now compelled to tell the truth to a lost and floundering world. My page on Wicca was for YOU and your kind. You don't have keep on doing them meaningless rituals. And what do you do them for? A few trinkets? A little lift to a broke down ego? To impress others? To feel you got some power in the midst of this evil generation? To smoke some dope? To get a few whores to fornicate with? Why? You don't have a good answer because what you do is meaningless. No, worse than meaningless for your works and disobedience bring on you the wrath of an angry God. Why is He angry? Romans 1:16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. 1:18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness; 1:19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them. 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse: 1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 1:22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 1:23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen. 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 1:30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 1:31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them. You know God exists. Your conscience tells you that He does. Nevertheless, you go around worshipping His creation, trees and rocks and moons and stars. Out of control, my friend. You don't have to live the deceived life any more. Get out of all that and run into the arms of Jesus. Call on His name and give Him the glory. Ask Him to forgive you. Tell Him you'll submit to Him and then do it. I once the devil all my effort. No, I was not a Satanist. But I ignored the Lord of glory so I worshipped the devil by default. I had the devil's fruits. I worshipped him ignorantly but today is a NEW DAY. Thank you, Jesus! Ephesians 2:1 And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air (the devil), the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience (including you High Priest): 2:3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. 2:4 But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, 2:5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 2:6 And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 2:7 That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast. 2:10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. NOW I am happy to give Jesus all my feeble little efforts. I want to serve Him harder than I ever served the devil. That's why I am writing to you this day. Jesus arranged this. You didn't write to me by accident. Jesus has just put yet another obstacle in your path to hell--me. I'm telling you, REPENT AND GIVE JESUS THE GLORY! You may think you are doing a good thing, but you are bringing people into the bondage of the devil! Don't you know that Satan can appear as an angel of light? 2 Corinthians 11:14 And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. 2 Peter 2:19 While they promise them liberty, they themselves are the servants of corruption: for of whom a man is overcome, of the same is he brought in bondage. You ain't free, my friend. You are a slave to sin. You have no power. The devil may allow you to do a few parlor tricks but that is only to keep you deceived. REPENT OF THY WICKEDNESS! TURN TO JESUS! YE MUST BE BORN AGAIN! Whatever you choose to do-- ...be ye sure of this, that the kingdom of God is come nigh unto you. Luke 10:11 for Jesus' sake, tracy -- http://www.jesus-is-lord.com ...I do send thee unto them; and thou shalt say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD. And thou, son of man, be not afraid of them, neither be afraid of their words, though briers and thorns be with thee, and thou dost dwell among scorpions: be not afraid of their words, nor be dismayed at their looks, though they be a rebellious house.
