Hmm, you misunderstood me, I should have been more clear. What I meant was more along the lines of Judaism is to Christianity as Christianity is to Islam. Jews do not accept Jesus as our final savior; Christians do not accept Mohamed as our final savior. It goes without saying that Islam is different than Christianity. For the record, though, the morals and symbolisms of all 3 are, for the most part, the same, and Muslims do accept Jesus as the son of god. They also accept and worship Mohamed as the latest savior, which Christians do not.Anyway, why do you think that the occult is satanic; just saying it does not make it true. More likely than not, this recent fear of magic stems from the medieval witch trials where magic entailed human sacrifice and signing a pact with satan. Few, if any, of the women actually partook in witchcraft, which in many cases is a very peaceful nature based practice. Surely there are black magicians who deviate from the norm, just as there are those who have used Christianity as an excuse for authority and bloodshed. In fact, it is widely accepted that the witch trials were nothing more than a means for the men in society to suppress and control women using the common held means of dogma. This is not the first time this has happened, it has recently come to light that a certain character was edited out of the first testament. Her name was lilith, the woman who was created simultaneously with Adam. Adam fell in love with lilith and tried to tame her, but failed when she chose to leave Eden. Cutting her out of the picture made females appear lesser than man, eve being made out of Adams rib. I'll post a reputable source on this in the morning.
Oh boy, as why Occult is Satanic? According to the above scriptures that Kriss posted. That's why.I repeat, actually there are Jews that accepted Christ as Saviour. As Christians and Jews are brothers and sisters. We are God's children. As for Islam, I repeat it is pointless to compare YHWH who is a Living God and Allah who is a dead god. By dead, I mean a false god.Human Sacrifices are still Satanic. God surely does not want us to have human sacrifices...Hosea 6:6 - For I desired mercy, and not sacrifice; and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.Matthew 9:13 - But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.Matthew 12:7 - But if ye had known what this meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice, ye would not have condemned the guiltless.As for this "special wife" lilith of Adam... It is NO where in the scriptures. It is a complete lie of men. You are making God a liar. Get that lie out of here.Jag
