Witchcraft finally legalised

July 21, 2005

From: AAP

It is clear skies for witches and other followers of the occult in Victoria with the repeal of an antiquated law making witchcraft, sorcery and fortune-telling criminal pursuits.

Victorian Attorney-General Rob Hulls has introduced legislation repealing the Vagrancy Act, saying many of the offences had no place in today's multicultural and tolerant society.

"It is almost 200 years old and is steeped in the language and attitudes of Dickensian England," Mr Hulls said.

"Under the Vagrancy Act it is an offence to profess or pretend to tell fortunes or practise witchcraft.

"But the times have long since passed when witchcraft and fortune-telling represented a danger to law and order, or a focus for criminal activity."

How sad, and US NEWS I saw in the Wal-Mart a few hours ago, front page proclaims that Harry Potter has turned over 1 million children into book worms. The Harry Potter books sit right next to the Bibles.....................................:24:

U.S. News and World Report's cover story this week was about the book - "Wild About Harry - How the plucky wizard turned millions of kids into bookworms." USA Today had a similar feature.

The power of the Spirit and the grace of the Lord Jesus are with us. We can live in a manner that is pleasing to Him. The hope of the world is coming!

He who testifies to these things says, "Yes, I am coming soon." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Rev. 22:20 (NIV)

Shortly after reading this article, I read the one below...

Weakening Families an Anticipated Trend -- with Victims

By Bill Fancher

July 22, 2005

(AgapePress) - A pro-family advocate says she's not surprised with the results of a new study which shows America's traditional family is weakening.

The Rutgers University study shows divorce is declining -- but so is marriage. Meanwhile, co-habiting couples are on the rise; and the U.S. has the highest incidence of single parents.

None of these findings comes as a surprise to Dr. Janice Crouse of the Beverly LaHaye Institute. Crouse says couples who co-habit before marriage think they are strengthening their relationship. But she shares that "actually, living together before marriage or instead of marriage is a sure-fire recipe for divorce -- and the study from Rutgers shows that."

Quote from article...

"There'll be several thousand pagans in Melbourne celebrating this news under the full moon tonight," he said.

And Australia is such a beautiful country. Every project I ever did in school was always on Australia. It's been a place I've always longed to visit. You're in my prayers, Australia! (The first person to ever show me kindness was an Australian, so I have a heart for them. I always wanted to write back and forth with someone from there.)

Revelation 17:4-6 (King James Version)

"4And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and filthiness of her fornication:

5And upon her forehead was a name written,

MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF

HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

6And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration."

The things that we are witnessing in the world today is the rise of Babylon...the book of Revelations talks of the people of the world becoming worse than those of Sodom and Gomorrah...Revelations also tells us of the fall of "Babylon the Great" which is the empire of this fallen and depraved world...and how the World mourns the fall of this Great empire of darkness...

After the fall of "Babylon the Great" John wrote in Revelations 19:2:

"2For true and righteous are his judgments: for he hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of His servants at her hand."

The end times are at hand and the rise of Babylon is these days only proves that "her" fall is near and the return of our Lord Jesus is is not far on the horizon!!!

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
