Witchcraft on SermonAudio

This 8th part of the Revival Series examines from the Bible how Satan puts out the fires of true revival, in a land, churches, families or individuals. The Holy Spirit has given us the clear light of discernment in 2 Timothy 3. This sermon examines how Satan uses witchcraft, Jezebels, and confusion, to smother out the revival flames.

In this episode of From NAR to Christ with Dawn Hill, Dawn addresses a growing teaching within the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) and hyper-charismatic movement—the idea of so-called "Christian witches." Drawing from Scripture and personal experience, Dawn examines claims popularized by leaders such as Vlad Savchuk and evaluates them in light of the Word of God. The conclusion is clear: the concept of a "Christian witch" is not biblical. It is a theological contradiction that replaces discernment with suspicion and fosters confusion within the church. In this episode, Dawn explains: • Why a born-again believer cannot be both a Christian and a practitioner of witchcraft • How passages like Acts 8 and Acts 16 are often misused to support unbiblical claims • The danger of elevating subjective experience above Scripture • How false accusations and fear-based teaching harm the body of Christ • What true biblical discernment looks like according to Scripture Rather than promoting fear or paranoia, Scripture calls believers to test everything by the Word of God, speak the truth in love, and rest in the sufficiency of Christ and His finished work. The answer to error is not speculation, but clarity grounded in Scripture and confidence in the gospel. For more from Dawn Hill, visit: 👉 https://servantsofgrace.org/dawn-hill/

1 Samuel 28:3-25

The sermon explores the spiritual silence experienced by King Saul in 1 Samuel 28, attributing his lack of divine communication to persistent disobedience and rebellion. It contrasts Saul's desperate turn to witchcraft with the believer's access to Jesus Christ as an advocate who restores broken fellowship through confession. The message emphasizes that God's silence is often a diagnostic tool revealing unconfessed sin rather than abandonment. Listeners are urged to examine their hearts for hindrances to communion with God and to seek immediate reconciliation. Finally, the sermon issues an urgent invitation for those without faith in Christ to accept salvation before it is too late.

The sermon centers on the pervasive danger of idolatry in the modern Christian life, not merely in the form of physical idols but in the heart's covetousness and rebellion against God's provision. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 6 and other New Testament passages, it emphasizes that true spiritual warfare involves resisting the temptation to bypass God's will in pursuit of personal desires—whether for peace, health, prosperity, or comfort—by turning to occult practices, worldly systems, or self-reliance. The preacher illustrates this through cultural examples from Papua New Guinea, showing how animistic beliefs and spiritual deception persist, yet are rooted in a deeper human tendency to seek fulfillment outside of God's ordained means. Scripture reveals that covetousness is idolatry, rebellion is akin to witchcraft, and any attempt to obtain what God has withheld through unauthorized means constitutes spiritual unfaithfulness. The call is clear: believers must separate from all forms of spiritual compromise, embrace God's timing and provision, and live in faithful obedience, trusting that He alone is the source of true peace, joy, and victory.

Wicca and witchcraft are increasingly presented as harmless, empowering, and even healing—especially through social media, pop culture, and so-called "self-care" spirituality. In this episode of Contending for the Word Q&A, Doreen Virtue explains how occult practices disguise spiritual rebellion as freedom, enlightenment, and empowerment. You'll learn: • How Wicca and witchcraft are normalized and marketed today. • Why these practices appeal to the vulnerable and wounded. • The danger of blending biblical language with occult ideas. • Scripture's warning about deception disguised as light (2 Corinthians 11:14). • Why believers must remain rooted in Christ and grounded in God's Word. This is a sober, pastoral warning, especially for parents calling Christians to discernment, biblical clarity, and faithfulness to Christ alone.
