I keep wondering why the supposedly HOLY NAME of the Jews, Jehovah Witness and Christian is one of the most used name in magick? You always find the TETRAGRAMATON (the Four letter name YHVH) written in HEBREW round magic circle, magicians even use the name along with Elohim (translation of God in the bible sometimes), ADONAI, ELOAH and many others in their invocation??? Can someone suggest why because i met a few Jehovah witness who STRESSED the fact that that is really God's name and should not be taken lightly!

Jehovah's Witnesses do not pretend to be or desire to become familiar with so-called "magick". They understand the spelling "magick" to refer specifically to occultisms, rather to simple prestidigitation and sleight-of-hand.
Occultisms are really demon-centered Satan worship; the occult is completely incompatible with true worship of Jehovah.
(1 Corinthians 10:20,21) I do not want you to become sharers with the demons. You cannot be drinking the cup of Jehovah and the cup of demons
(Deuteronomy 18:10-12) There should not be found in you anyone ... who employs divination, a practicer of magic or anyone who looks for omens or a sorcerer, or one who binds others with a spell or anyone who consults a spirit medium or a professional foreteller of events or anyone who inquires of the dead. For everybody doing these things is something detestable to Jehovah
(Acts 19:19,20) Quite a number of those who practiced magical arts brought their books together and burned them up before everybody. And they calculated together the prices of them and found them worth fifty thousand pieces of silver. Thus in a mighty way the word of Jehovah kept growing and prevailing.

You see, people performing any kind of magic is busy with the devil himself (if they want to know it or not), and the devil know that God is almighty and he is afraid of God. This is just a way of trying to protect themselves. This is a sign of anti-Christ (devil)
