No mister athiest guy i am 16 not 12

Answer 1

I seek help only from the Holy Trinity. I view God as the Author of all Magick. I believe He has given us the Earth with the expectation of us to use it and the power it holds for the benefit of His kingdom, to teach us, to heal us and to sustain us. At one time, I was looking into Christo Wicca but was unable to reconcile it's polytheistic views with my own. My Craft is simply Biblical Christianity coupled with some spells and rituals, ALL done in Christ'd name. If you have anymore questions, feel free to message me privately anytime.

Answer 2

I am a Christian. I believe that Jesus Christ lived, is an aspect of God, and Is God; The Trinity. He is the Heavenly Father. Mary is the Earthly Mother. I believe that Christ has blessed me with the necessary wisdom to practice as a Pagan, which is to say that I am able to understand nature and use nature in a powerful and constructive way to achieve certain ends. This is exactly what Wicca is, too. The two are NOT, as some uninformed folk are apt to claim. The is no evil or devil worship involved in Wicca, and there never has been. The only restriction in the bible regarding witchcraft was found to be a mistranslation. It said not to let suffer a witch. The word was really poisoner. Wicca is based on a very simple and inviolable principle: Do What Thou Wiltst; Harm None. (Do whatever you want with the world around you, but don't be doing anything that'll bring pain to another person). It is so tiring to read the ramblings of the ignorant (in the realest sense of the word) who believe that what they've seen in the movies is what real witches do. I feel bad for them, but since I am honor bound to harm none, there is no way I can cast a spell upon them to force them to see the truth. That is fine, though, for the world does need these people so that we may reveal the truths of out love for the planet, humanity, and each other can be seen. Wicca is non-violent. Wicca is all about learning and growth in a positve way. Wicca is about honoring the God and Goddess, and understanding the balance and duality necessary to maintain that fragile state. Wicca and Christianity are perfectly suited to complement each other in many ways. TRUE Christianity, that is...not Catholicism, which is a whole different thing and must not be confused with what Jesus was trying to bring us.

Answer 3

As one who is on the verge of stepping inside, I know very little about it. I do like the more open-minded view of the Bible. The places that have been translated as "witchcraft" in the Bible come from various words, the most common being Kashaph, which in context implies a person who uses supernatural powers to bewitch another person and manipulate their actions (often coupled with sex, such as in the case of Jezebel). Other terms that are translated as witchcraft are Pharmakeia (which implies drug used to enchant others), Anan (meaning cloudwatcher, or one who seeks to fortell the future based on changes in nature), and Ob (one who conjures up the spirits of the dead).

Christian witches worship God as revealed in the Bible, or the Trinity. They see magick as a gift of God (why can Christians accept magick as long as it is called miracles, healing, prophecy, etc?) and one that we are encouraged to develop.

This is about what I know of it so far. I'm still looking into it though, so I don't have all the answers.

Answer 4

Christ and the practice of witchcraft are mutually exclusive ideas.

Witchcraft is condemned throughout scripture.

When one begins to investigate the phenomenon of modern witchcraft, it does not take long to notice a range of terms associated with the practice: The Craft, Wicca, paganism, Neo-Paganism, and so on. Brooks Alexander, a Christian researcher who is an expert on the occult and counterculture, gives a helpful summary of certain distinctions between the terms Wicca, witchcraft, and Neo-Paganism. Neo-Paganism is the broadest category, encompassing a wide range of groups “that try to reconstruct ancient, pre- and non-Christian religious systems—such as the Norse, Celtic, Greek, Roman, and Egyptian religions—as well as…various obscure, forgotten, and neglected occult teachings from around the world.”3 He goes on to distinguish witchcraft from Wicca (with Wicca being the narrowest category) along the lines of how closely one follows the specific teachings and practices of the English Wiccan Gerald Gardner, who more or less gave the term Wica (with one c) to his practice.4

There may be subtle distinctions that some prefer to maintain when opting for one term over another, but for the most part these terms are used interchangeably. The term witchcraft is certainly the most familiar within and without the practice, but it is also the term that carries with it the most unwanted baggage. It often has sinister or evil connotations, and for those reasons many within the craft prefer the term Wicca (for the practice) and Wiccan (for the practitioner). The prefix “Neo” in Neo-Paganism usually indicates an emphasis on one’s practice in its contemporary manifestation while still hinting that it is perhaps a revival of, or connected to, something ancient.

Witchcraft Is a Religion

As Americans, this is an important point to remember. We cherish our heritage of religious freedom, but in their enthusiasm to refute the beliefs of witchcraft, some Christians have overstated the case. They rightly claim that the United States was founded on the ethical concept of natural law (where morality is grounded in the nature of the creator God),5 but they wrongly conclude that witches do not have constitutional rights, since witches reject the traditional Christian notion of the creator God. Without getting into the tricky issue of how and whether religion should interact with government or public life, we should recognize that, within the limits of law, all Americans have the right to exercise their own religion in accordance with the dictates of their conscience. Our contention, such as it is, with witchcraft is one of truth. It is a battle of ideas.

Answer 5

It is an oxymoron - kind of like Christian pornography.
Witchcraft is listed as a work of the flesh in Galatians 5:19-21, along with drunkenness, idolatry, and fornication. (some versions translate the word here as 'sorcery')
Revelation 9: 21 says "and they did not repent of their murders, nor of their sorceries (acts of witchcraft),nor of their fornication nor of their thefts"
I Samuel 15:23 says; "For rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft, and insubordination is as iniquity and idolatry"
Basically, witchcraft is the attempt to manipulate and control persons, objects or events by the use of supernatural means to obtain selfish ends.
There are 2 sources of supernatural power in the world, according to the Bible; One is the power of God, the Holy Spirit; the other is the power of Satan and his fallen angels and demons. THE HOLY SPIRIT NEVER EMPLOYS MANIPULATION AND CONTROL in exerting His influence over people. This power is always Satanic in origin.

Answer 6

Christo-pagans are kinda strange.

Most take elements from Wicca, and view YHVH as the Great All [the totality, from which Goddess and God eminate from], Christ as The God, and The Virgin Mary as The Goddess.

For the 4 quarters, I recall they use the Archangels [The only one I recall is that the Archangel Michael is the South].

It's really just a flavor of stuff.

Answer 7

While I know there are those that claim to be Christian witches, it would be impossible. The Bible is very explicit when it says that witchcraft is prohibited for Christians. Anyone claiming otherwise, is either not educated on the Bible or chooses to ignore some very important scriptures.

Answer 8

Christian Witchcraft? This is new to me. I don't know if it exsists from the answers that you already have, but I too would like to know what they do.

Have a nice day :-)

Answer 9

It sounds like you've got voodoo, wicca, and Catholicism mixed up. I've never heard of Christian witchcraft before (not that I'm denying that it exists).

Answer 10

Fat-CHic say Christian witch is like Jumbo Shrimp.
