Do you believe in psychics? ‘A man or woman who is a medium or spiritist among you must be put to death. You are to stone them; their blood will be on their own heads.’

— Leviticus 20:27 NIV

**************Warning following this scripture could land you in prison************* Harry Houdini was just 52 when he died on Halloween in 1926, succumbing to peritonitis caused by a ruptured appendix. Famous in life for his improbable escapes from physical constraints, the illusionist promised his wife, Bess, that—if at all possible—he would also slip the shackles of death to send her a coded message from the beyond. Over the next ten years, Bess hosted annual séances to see if the so-called Handcuff King would come through with an encore performance from the spirit world. But on Halloween 1936, she finally gave up, declaring to the world, “Houdini did not come through.. I do not believe that Houdini can come back to me, or to anyone.” The Bible strongly condemns spiritism, mediums, and psychics. Horoscopes, tarot cards, astrology, fortune tellers, palm readings, and séances fall into this category as well. These practices are based on the concept that there are gods, spirits, or deceased loved ones that can give advice and guidance. These “gods” or “spirits” are demons. For the record i don't read my horoscope ever! I even fact check anyone with the Gospel who tells me about a prophecy they claim. Be carful for these demons walk amongst us everyday.

Have a great day!
