[malakhi]

In my years of studying fundamentalism, necromancy is a new word. I know the Bible states that dead have no power in the world after they die. But they can pray to God for the people on earth.

From the Douay-Rheims:

Neither let there be found among you any one that shall expiate his son or daughter, making them to pass through the fire: or that consulteth soothsayers, or observeth dreams and omens, neither let there be any wizard,
Nor charmer, nor any one that consulteth pythonic spirits, or fortune tellers, or that seeketh the truth from the dead.
For the Lord abhorreth all these things (Deuteronomy 18:10-12)

From the RSV:

There shall not be found among you any one who burns his son or his daughter as an offering, any one who practices divination, a soothsayer, or an augur, or a sorcerer,
or a charmer, or a medium, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
For whoever does these things is an abomination to the LORD (Deuteronomy 18:10-12)

[tHe AnTiLiB]

i'm not seeking the dead to give me guidance, or to forgive me, remember, I'm asking people who have risen to new life to pray for me. Again, I'll repeat-not to seek any type of truth, or even some type of spirtual gaces, but to plead with them to pray for me to the Lord our God.
