The Dark Arts in the Church: Witchcraft, Misunderstanding, and the Diversity of God's Power

Pesan Inti

The greatest threat to the church is not external witchcraft but internal manipulation born from ignorance and misunderstanding of God's diverse gifts, administrations, and operations—and the antidote is gaining understanding to rightly discern the genuine power of God.

Ayat Kunci

Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all. — 1 Corinthians 12:4–6 (KJV)

3 Poin Utama

1. Understanding is the activating faculty that makes wisdom and knowledge useful; without it, believers mishandle even right things and demonize unfamiliar operations of God.
2. The church is indestructible as the bride of Christ, protected by His nature—no external curse, warlock, or power can prevail against it because a curse without a cause cannot stand.
3. Satan's primary weapon is ignorance, not external incantations; the true dark art in the church is manipulation masquerading as discernment while denying the power of God.

Fokus Doa

Ask God to grant you the spirit of understanding so you can accurately discern His diverse operations, recognize His genuine power, and stop demonizing what is simply unfamiliar to your experience.
