You actually believe in ‘witchcraft and curses’?
There are those who practice these things, believing that ~they~ have “powers” when in reality, they are in league with demons and the devil, who assist them with their evil “prayers”.
Yes, it is as real as the powers of angels.
If you don’t then the joke is on you.
That evil realm is more real than you could ever imagine.
God takes it seriously enough.
Jesus certainly kept busy dealing with demons that you claim aren’t real.
Unless you are claiming that He was wrong or that you know more than Him.
Is God lying in Scripture about the demonic and the devil?
I am not a follower of any system of thought but belief in the one true God and no one else.
In the Bible God admonishes us to avoid the magicians, entrail readers, necromancers, astrologers and others who try to insert themselves as rivals for God's power. Not to simply laugh them off as fairy tale figures.
Micah 5:12 I will destroy witchcraft from your hand; and you shall have no soothsayers.
Isaiah 8:19 And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto the necromancers and unto the soothsayers, who chirp and who mutter, say, Shall not a people seek unto their God? Will they go for the living unto the dead?
Nehemiah 13:2 Because they met not the children of Israel with bread and with water, but hired Balaam against them, that he should curse them: howbeit our God turned the curse into a blessing.
Numbers 23 For there is no spell against Jacob and no divination against Israel. It will now be said of Jacob and Israel, ‘What great things God has done!’
As with the Pharoah's magicians God does not say "oh what a childish and silly notion that such things work in real life", on the contrary he said several times to disdain them and fight them. At no time does any omen diviner or spell caster rival the power of God, if that's what you mean.
I have extremely little knowledge of Catholic exorcism, and Jewish battles against Dybbuks and demons. There is more and more evidence, in my opinion, that demonic power is being unleashed on the world by Democrats and BLM supporters, by any name.
God's power will defeat them all.
