What causes fascination with the occult?

Ok, we know the deal with the occult.Demon spirits mislead people into thinking they're "helpful", like a deceased loved one . A "familiar spirit" the Bible calls it.because so many of my own relatives,and others I've heard,have had a spouse die , when something breaks for them, instead of giving God the glory, right away they say, "I KNOW{Meaning, they believe because it makes them feel better}the {fill in dead persons name}was helping me. Let there be an electrical short, the lights flicker on and off, and here it comes--"he{the husband was "visiting" me}so pagan. So blasphemous.So niave to the devils lies.I deal with this more than a lot of others, because my mother, for years and right up to this day, is absolutely obsessed with these things, and gets all excited when even hearing about it.Of course, my sister, having grown up hearing this, blindly followed. Now i'm not talking about believing in it per se, but those who are really fascinated ,and obsessed I'm trying to figure out the psychology behind it.Because even before I became saved, it never really was so turned on by it.And there are unsaved people who don't believe in it,although as time goes on it seems more unsaved people do.So wisdom, those who are obsessed by it,what is the motivation behind it?A spiritual sickness?Because maybe if I understood better, I'd know what I'm dealing with.And how to deal with it.

Why don't you share with others Jesus? Why don't you share with others proof of Hell, the proof of liquid fire beneath their feet that science taught them to call lava and that everyone who doesn't follow the instructions of Christ and complains about the instructions of Christ is going there to die an eternal death? Why don't you share Biblical truths from places like www.arkdiscovery.com?

The times I've tried to ,so far it's gone "in one ear and out the other".I guess, although we're supposed to witness, in the end, whether they're predestined for salvation or not,and how the Holy Spirit moves them,factors in.,

You know what instructions from God/Jesus that I'm talking about Steven. If you want to refuse to follow them all then how is your mom and your sister going to know that you are for real? If you want to make fun of the believers that say to count it all as joy just as Jesus says and call them masochists for following Jesus than why should we tell you how to save your mom and your sister? Who are you trying to save Steven?

Ask God To Cove YOU!

James 5:16b (KJV): The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
James 5:16b (NLT) The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results.
Let Us Pray: God I ask You in Jesus’ name to cover me. Cover me in Your love, grace, mercy, joy, peace, and protection daily. Cover me Lord Jesus from all evil and demonic activity. Cover me in the prayers of the righteous. Cover Me Jesus. And God please do the same for the writer of this prayer and all those who love and care about me. Cover us all Lord Jesus. Thank You Jesus. Amen.

If it's a foregone conclusion that you're going to take issue with everything I post, why reply at all? I mean, as soon as you see the name "Steven Bobb", your mind is made up to disagree with me.

You are the one that likes to post on the Blogs so that your posts stay up longer so that everyone including myself spend a little extra time with aren't you? If Jesus puts it on my heart to respond to your blog than what is that to you? You don't even realize that you complain against your very own creator do you? Until you learn to count it all as joy and take no thought for your life you will have no real power in Christ Jesus, will you?

Yeah...I wonder if it's Jesus telling you to post the replies, or you're doing it out of your own ill feelings towards me?I wonder...

And the question to end all questions...…"There's an exception to everything". Many times I've seen so much of one side of something that I doubt the other side exists. But, to be honest,in rare instances, I DO see an exception. But there's one thing I'm doubtful about,...since you disagree with EVERYTHING I say,question--let's say I post something you agree with,or even change my thinking to what you say--listen closely, would you ADMIT YOU AGREE WITH ME,OR WOULD YOU LET YOUR PERSONAL FEELINGS TOWARDS ME GET IN THE WAY<AND YOU WOULD DISAGREE WITH ME JUST BECAUSE OF YOUR OWN FEELINGS TOWARDS ME? Can you be neutral when it comes to me?If you thought I was right, could you bring yourself to admit it? That's the question YOU should look at.And only you know the answer to that, Mr.Happy Go Lucky.
