I'm a Wiccan who believes in God and Jesus. My God is a woman, and Jesus was one of the most important and wise prophets of the last two thousand years. I don't believe in hell (other than that which we can create for ourselves on earth), because my God is not one to torment Her children.
Now if you believe in heaven and hell, in the God of Abraham, in the idea that Jesus is your Savior and your only path to Salvation? Then becoming a Wiccan would, in your mind, condem you to your own hell (very possibly one on earth). But I can't imagine why you would.

According to the Bible, yes. You can't serve 2 masters (God and Wicca).
Which do you wish to follow more? God or the Wiccan path? One leads to everlasting life in Heaven. The other is a dead end and leads to eternal pain far worse than anything imaginable on this Earth.
I was raised in the Catholic Church. But for a couple of years, I chose the Wiccan path and called myself a Wiccan Pagan. (All Wiccans are Pagan. But not all Pagans are Wiccan.)
One day, I felt the pull to return to the Catholic Church so strongly that I renounced Wicca right then and there. I asked God to forgive me of my sin and rededicated my life to God. Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. I have happily been attending my chosen parish since then. And I haven't regretted it for a moment.

The Bible talks about witchcraft and sorcery. It says that God hates it.
Noone can tell you whether you are going to hell. Only God knows the state of our heart.
Its up to you, but personally I would think long and hard about this decision.
I dont know a lot about wiccan. Just that they claim its a love of the earth and nature. I did know a Wiccan lady once and she had a great big pentagram around her neck. Witchcraft symbol. Maybe that was just her...
I would speak to your religious advisor about it. Pray about it.
Personally I wouldnt risk it. If you want to get into mother nature plant some trees, volunteer at an animal shelter, go camping.
But it is your decision. I will pray for you. All the best. Let us know what you decide

Do Wicca's believe in Hell? If you believe in God and Jesus, I don't think you'll go to hell if you become a Wiccan.
I'm a Christian, and for a while I dabbled in Wicca. I have to say, I couldn't keep doing the Wicca, because of their belief in God(s) and Goddesses. I just couldn't make myself believe in their Gods and Goddesses, so I felt I wasn't giving myself completely to the Wicca, and when I tried to do the rituals, I wasn't being truthful to myself. In the end I just felt stupid, doing the wash, the lighting of the candles, the chanting, when all along I was saying to myself; "Dear Jesus, I still love you, and believe in you..." It was just wrong for me. . Didn't matter what I did to try to convince myself, I just couldn't do it.
I believe in Jesus and God, not Gods plural or Goddesses. I like the theory of Goddesses etc, I just don't believe it.
This is something you will have to deal with, can you tell yourself you DON'T believe in Jesus and God anymore? Can you tell yourself you believe in these G's & Gd's you've never heard of before?
If you can, then maybe you can do the Wicca thing, but where does that leave your Christian belief?
Do the Wicca thing for fun, but don't become smothered in all of it, that's if the Jesus thing is really important. If not, I don't think you'll have to worry about God and Jesus, because you won't believe in them anymore. If it feels wrong don't do it. If it's ok, then go ahead. Have some fun. Wicca is a white magik, not a black so you won't be hurting anyone.

Mat 6:24 No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other
.
Death is inevitable. The thief on the cross knew when his would occur, but we can not predict our own. After his death, the crucified criminal went to live in paradise with Jesus. Some of us will also live eternally in God's presence. But others will experience everlasting torment, forever separated from Him.
If we receive Jesus as our Savior, our penalty for sin is paid. We are adopted into God's family, and Heaven is our eternal home. If we reject Jesus, we remain alienated from the Lord and under condemnation for our sin. We are destined to experience eternal judgment. God won't accept any of man's excuses because there is no acceptable defense for unbelief. (Acts 4:12)
Become part of God's family today. Acknowledge your sinfulness, and express your faith in these words:
"God, I have sinned against You. (Romans 3:23) I've followed my own way and refused to give You the right to rule in my life. (Romans 3:10-12) I recognize I am separated from You and cannot rescue myself. I do believe that Jesus Christ is Your Son. I accept the truth of the Scriptures? that His death on the cross paid my sin-debt in full. (1 Corinthians 15:3-4) And I ask You to forgive me of my sins. (1 John 1:9) By faith, I receive You, Lord Jesus, as my personal Savior from this moment on."
If you just spoke those words to God, then, like the thief on the cross, you have received salvation? a gift of God's grace. The heavenly Father welcomes every person who comes to Him through His Son, regardless of background, age, or current situation. Through Jesus, the right to enter paradise is yours!

Why are you even asking since you have already made the decision to follow the path of Christianty? If you plan to follow the teachings of the bible then the two paths are not compatable. In the end all that matters is that you are content in your choice.

No.
If you are steadfast in your belief, nothing can be wrong in expanding your knowledge. If it's just "magick" that has your interest, then go with it.
You don't have to "convert" to practise Magick. Magick is a system, NOT a religion.
So go with what your heart tells you is right.

Wicca is witchcraft. Don't believe the lie that because Wiccans worship nature that it is not witchcraft. The devil has planted that lie in the minds of millions. Any attempt to reach or worship God apart from faith in the Lord Jesus is of the devil. Jesus says, "I am the Way...no man comes to the Father except through Me" (John 14:6).
I'm sure you're sincere, but I deeply hope you won't allow yourself to take a wrong path in life by getting involved with any kind of occult practice. Instead of bringing you close to God, it will only take you away from Him.
Why do I say this? The reason is because the Bible clearly says that occult practices of any kind do not come from God, but from spiritual powers that oppose Him. In other words, the Bible says occult practices aren't a gift from God (as you believe) but come from the one who opposes Him—namely, Satan. God warned the ancient Israelites that the nations around them practiced sorcery and divination, "But as for you, the Lord your God has not permitted you to do so" (Deuteronomy 18:14).
Instead, I urge you to turn to God and seek His will for your life. Only He knows our future, and only He can be trusted to lead us. God loves you, and He wants what is best for you—and the proof is that He gave His only Son, Jesus, to die for you on the cross.
Our greatest need is to be cleansed of our sins—only Christ can do that. By a simple prayer of faith invite Jesus to come into your life today—and He will. Then make it your goal to "pursue righteousness, faith, love and peace, along with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart" (2 Timothy 2:22).
