WHY SHOULD CHRISTIANS STUDY THE OCCULT, WITCHCRAFT, AND SATANISM? [1 of 2] So many times in the Bible, God tells us to stay away from the occult practices that are glamorized by Hollywood and ignored by most in the Church, including those who go online to comment that we Christians don't need to learn about such evil. But that advocates burying our heads in the sand, which helps no one and only facilitates the continued demonic consequences for unsuspecting men, women, and children. Warnings against occult practices like witchcraft are all over the Bible because they are ABHORRENT to God. The reality of where it leads, to evils like demon connections and human sacrifice, should be disturbing and serious enough for Christians, that it prompts us to deal with it in a biblical way. As vile as the information is, at least we will have been biblically trained on how to deal with this evil.
