12.Doctrines Taught By Demons

The Bible predicts that occult practices will be rampant during the End Times. Witchcraft, Wicca, paganism, folk magic, and other New Age traditions are currently among the fastest-growing spiritual paths in America. There are an estimated 1.5 million practicing witches in America.

Not every plastic lawn vampire or self-proclaimed “witch” is a manifestation of spiritual evil. But the rise of occult beliefs, especially within the church, is unmistakeable. A recent Pew Research study found that a large and growing percentage of Americans believe in reincarnation, astrology, psychics, and the presence of spirits in nature. More than half of Americans accept at least one or more of these beliefs. And that number is just as high among self-identified Christians as in non-Christians. Even agnostics have adopted occult ideas, along with the overwhelming majority of those who identify themselves “spiritual, but not religious.”
