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 a person turns to mediums and
necromancers, whoring after them,
I will set my face against that
person and will cut him off from
among his people.
(Leviticus 20:6)
ESV
When you come into the land that
the Lord your God is giving you,
you shall not learn to follow the
abominable practices of those
nations. 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 18:9-12)
ESV
And he burned his son as an
offering and used fortune-telling
and omens and dealt with mediums
and with necromancers. He did much
evil in the sight of the Lord,
provoking him to anger.
(2 Kings 21:6)

the command of the Lord, and also
consulted a medium, seeking
guidance.

And he burned his sons as an
offering in the Valley of the Son
of Hinnom, and used
fortune-telling and omens and
sorcery, and dealt with mediums
and with necromancers. He did much
evil in the sight of the Lord,
provoking him to anger.
(2 Chronicles 33:6)
ESV
And when they say to you, “Inquire
of the mediums and the
necromancers who chirp and
mutter,” should not a people
inquire of their God? Should they
inquire of the dead on behalf of
the living?
(Isaiah 8:19)
ESV
So do not listen to your prophets,
your diviners, your dreamers, your
fortune-tellers, or your
sorcerers, who are saying to you,
‘You shall not serve the king of
Babylon.’
(Jeremiah 27:9)
ESV
And I will cut off sorceries from
your hand, and you shall have no
more tellers of fortunes;
(Micah 5:12)
ESV
As we were going to the place of
prayer, we were met by a slave
girl who had a spirit of
divination and brought her owners
much gain by fortune-telling. She
followed Paul and us, crying out,
“These men are servants of the
Most High God, who proclaim to you
the way of salvation.” And this
she kept doing for many days.
Paul, having become greatly
annoyed, turned and said to the
spirit, “I command you in the name
of Jesus Christ to come out of
her.” And it came out that very
hour.
(Acts 16:16-18)
ESV
And a number of those who had
practiced magic arts brought their
books together and burned them in
the sight of all. And they counted
the value of them and found it
came to fifty thousand pieces of
silver.

Outside are the dogs and sorcerers
and the sexually immoral and
murderers and idolaters, and
everyone who loves and practices
falsehood.
(Revelation 22:15)
ESV1

Inspirational Quotes from Famous People |
Isn't it strange? The same people
who laugh at
gypsy fortune tellers take
economists seriously.
--Economics quotes.
Newspapers have roughly the same
relationship to life
as fortune-tellers to metaphysics.
--Karl Kraus
quotes (Austrian Journalist, Critic, Playwright and Poet, 1874-1936)
He who asks fortune-tellers the
future unwittingly forfeits an
inner intimation of coming events
that is a thousand times more
exact than anything they may say.
He is impelled by inertia, rather
than curiosity, and nothing is
more unlike the submissive apathy
with which he hears his fate
revealed than the alert dexterity
with which the man of courage lays
hands on the future.
--Walter Benjamin
quotes (German Theologian, Writer and Essayist. 1892-1940)4 |
