BTW, I grew up reading fiction books about warlocks, witches, and magic. I am doing just fine and have not converted to Wicca. In fact, I am a staunch Christian with some theonomic tendencies. In my world (assuming everyone COVENANTED TO TO THIS.....I WOULD NOT FORCE IT ON THEM)....there would be strict laws and one of the laws would be that witches would be executed as Scripture teaches. Anyway.

Just because a book talks about magic does not make it an object of Satan.

Actually, Scripture of the New Covenant does not teach executing witches. It teaches that they should be born again, just like everyone, and repent. If they don't, just like everyone else who doesn't, God will be forced to send them to Hell, because that is his promise, and He can not lie.

That having been said, as a Christian, I know that God tells me to have no fellowship with any works of darkness. So I will not.

Ephesians 5:11  And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

He says to reprove them.

I certainly would not look for entertainment in anything that glorifies witchcraft.

God also tells us that when witches were converted, and other workers of darkness, they burned the items of the occult.

Acts 19:17  And this was known to all the Jews and Greeks also dwelling at Ephesus; and fear fell on them all, and the name of the Lord Jesus was magnified.

18  And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds.

19  Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.

20  So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed.
