the wisdom traditions are aka Gnosis traditions.
Gnostics are still christian.
All those words for ‘peace’, don’t equate to witchcraft, as i checked my encyclopaedia of witchcraft.

I will opine that, if balanced by Puritanical ideology, anything outside of the KJV, would be defined as witchcraft.
Such ideology became cursed (imho), when in 1640 - 20 years after Plymouth Rock, in the town of Windsor, in the colony of Connecticut, came a young woman by the name of Alsee/Alice Young, who was found guilty of witchcraft, and hung.
She was the first woman found guilty and hung, in the New World.

No, they are not. Per the Apostles and early Church fathers.

Polycarp even called them "the first born of Satan."
