Sorry if I've posted something out of turn here, I am not sure how all this works yet. I thought I could post a discussion question/topic here!

I would not partake in a discussion of if it is even possible for one does not know what one is talking to in the spirit realm, but I can tell you that it is not good... dead people or demons means it matters not because the Lord has forbidden both. You do not want to go into that world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem to be suggesting that if I did confront her about it and had a frank discussion, there is a chance that any answer she gives me could be coming from the demonic realm. I hadn't thought of that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't thought of that. that is highly possible and I know for I've been in that realm, and she most likely is not aware of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is spiritual warfare, so a word spoken at the right time can pierce her heart with conviction if attended with prayer. As 'other one' said, I wouldn't get entangled in deep conversation or relationship though. edit Edited November 23, 2018 by LynnJames122 edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a best friend for over 60 years that I have recently learned prays and communicates with her dead mother. She does not believe the Scriptures and cannot even say the words "Jesus is Lord". I keep telling her that praying to her mother is praying to evil spirits but it goes in one ear and out the other. She calls me long distance about twice a week and talks for hours. She knows what I believe and I keep confronting her as the opportunity opens up. But I do urge you to stop praying with her and do tell her why. You can do it by email or text. Deu 18:9 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. Deu 18:10 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 Deu 18:11 or a charmer or a medium or a necromancer or one who inquires of the dead, Deu 18:12 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. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am curious to hear of your story and how you were able to come out of deception. Shalom I got entangled with them in a deep study of the occult and one night in the shower while being made some really good offers the Holy Spirit stepped in and stopped it all just like that. Told them that they could not have me that I was Gods.... it was only then that I realized what I had gotten myself into and truly who they were..... I've been a believer all my life, but I had not really let the Lord be my Lord until that night. I am his to do whatever he wishes to do with me. So short story is that I didn't get myself out of it, the Holy Spirit did. I would just say though that if she's not a believer she's in serious spiritual trouble... while you should not have a close relationship with someone doing what she's doing for you don't want to expose yourself to what she'd dealing with, you probably shouldn't just dump her as an acquaintance for she may well really need your help if you are a strong believer.... I know she needs your prayers. Edited October 30, 2018 by other one 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quietly Separate? Or is there not much to be alarmed about here?? . You should just inform her that the breaking of God's Law at Deuteronomy 18:9-14 will result in the sinner/evildoer being cursed by God with a speech and/or hearing disorder.(Mark 7:32) Christians should also avoid consulting false prophets like psychics, fortune-tellers, horoscope, etc. Then, you should be guided by 1Corinthians 5:1-13 and Matthew 18:15-17 and 1John 5:16-17 on how to deal with the Christian sinner.
