a lot of people have messed around with this stuff and God's original rules said that if mankind did something wrong they must go to hel when they die and be punished. Jesus's death means that so long as you are sorry and ask for his forgivness he will forgive you and ur past sin will be wiped clean. in other words, no u wont. he forgives no matter what you do. he even saved the murdered who was crucified next to him. pretty cool huh

You love God and Jesus but don't know if you should become a Wiccan or not. Huh. If by God you mean the God of the Bible, I would recommend not becoming a Wiccan. While there are Christian Wiccans, this is a synthesis that I find to detract from both sides. Being a witch, one can take the Bible only so seriously.
If, on the other hand, you mean that you view Jesus as a guy who was fairly in tune with the Divine - even that you view him as an avatar in the Hindu sense - I think you could make that jive. But if that was the idea you were going for, I doubt you'd be worried about hell.
I would recommend that you follow your interests, search after knowledge, and not rely upon one book for the answers. If "GOD" takes away all of your ability to investigate and understand the world around you, either philosophical, magical or scientific, perhaps it's time to leave that god behind.
All the best,
Lazarus

Yes. It is told in the bible a small amount of people go to heaven. I used to be an atheist, then turned Wiccan, then into christian. And, don't use an Ouija board. Since you studied and experimented spells and tarot cards, I suppose you know that ghosts are actually demons. I found that out the hard way. Its not a path you want to take. When I talked to what I thought was a "ghost" my friend became possessed. It started following me around stabbing me in the shoulder. I had nightmares and started screaming at night. (and i never in my life did that before this happened). So many bad things happened I almost turned suicidal. (Suicide is a sin.) I prayed to god. It all went away. My curiosity was gone. So was the demon.
No offense to Pagan religion, but if one believes in god and then in pagan gods, you contradict yourself. It the bible it says do not worship any god before me.

You will not go to hell for using a Ouija board. You will only go to hell for not excepting Jesus as Lord and Savior. I suggest you read the bible though. It clearly states that you should stay away from suth sayers and astrologers. The spirits you are messing with are evil ones. Immerse yourself in the bible and allow the Lord of Lords to speak to your heart. When you are standing before the Lord on that day, will he say "good job good and faithful servant" or depart from me I knew you not...eternity is a long time. Is it worth it? Go to Jesus, live life eternal in a place so wonderful the human mind can't grasp, or live apart from Jesus and live eternal in a place so horrible the mind can't grasp. You have that choice right now. This life is so short. eternity is .......ssoooooo long. I'll pray you make the choice of a wonderful life eternal. God Bless.

How can you love God if you want to become a Wiccan?
I think you have your own answer to be honest... God made you scared of that ouiji board for a reason... to show you that your choice is wrong. You need to stay with God or you will indeed be walking the path to hell.
If you want to carry on an interest in astrology or numerology, I do not see anything to wrong with that compared to what you would otherwise be getting yourself into if you truly live the wiccan way. I once chose to be a wiccan myself and life got so terrible and negative.... I now prefer to be with the Lord and be fruitful and happy in life

If you believe in the all the fundamental Christian theories, then yes, you will go to hell for even studying this subject. Fortunately, Christianity is so diverse, that I'm sure there is a sect of Christians who believe that dabbling is magickal studies wont do your soul any harm.
If you want to study the subject of Witchcraft, I recommend going to your local book store or library and reading all you can about it. There are many different authors on the subject, with many different points of view. However, the first book I recommend you read is Scott Cunningham's "The Truth about Witchcraft Today". It explains what Wicca and Witchcraft are, and what they're not. In other words, it dispels any misconceptions you may have about Magick.
If you want to become Wiccan, I suggest you study it until you know for sure it's what you want. I say this because if Wicca is to be your religion, you're going to be exposed to lots of knowledge, and knowledge takes maturity.
If you have any more question about Wicca or Witchcraft, you can feel free to contact me.
Good luck & blessed be!

what does your heart tell you? well a lot of wiccans wont touch ouiji bords anyway so that really has nothing to do with the Wiccan religion. I beleive in god but I also beleive in a lot of pegan ways. I have the same love and appreciation for the universe and nature. I love their peacful ways ect. I have struggled with the same questions as you and have decided. for me, I just beleive what my heart tells me. I pray to god, I live a good life, I follow my intints. and I really dont need a religion behind me to tell me whats to do. god will guied me in the right direction. Do what your inner voice tells you to do. you dont need us to tell you.

Silly child.. There is no god, no hell, ho heaven, and when you die you rot like a racoon at the side of the road, so no worries. Play with all the silly make believe magic things you want, no problem.

I think that christians today are overly liberal. It might be fashinable to join a wica but the bible clearly states that you are not to indulge in such things I would steer clear of all the things you have mentioned if you decide that you want to follow God, otherwise it's fair game, go for it.

Hon, all that stuff - ouija board, astrology, witchcraft, jesus, gods - it's all make-believe.
Nobody's going to hell - or heaven.
Do what you feel like, as long as nobody gets hurt.
