Pergamum:

Exactly thats why I am amazed that almost everyone here in the west grapple with witchcraft and treat it as if it doesnt exist. So by default they call God the Holy Spirit a teacher of false things and we all know that our greatest sin from the garden was to disbelieve Gods word. Adam was not deceived like Eve and disobeyed knowingly our Mother Eve disbelieved that death will be the result of eating. What I am saying is now the West wants to experience the power of witchcraft to prove Gods word. This is sad as the Bible clearly teaches us that even Solomon was introdroduced into witchcraft by his foreign wives.

Yes witchcraft may not be profound here in the west but where I come from it is a pandemic and affects our daily Lives. Actually the presence of the Gospel has slowed its devastating effects and the western Law because in the old days we had countless cases of people killing their babies in the practise of witchcraft.

Demonic possession is prevalent here in the west but here they have medical terminology for it like schizophrenia,self harm,alcoholic,stress, the list is enormous but spiritually its just plain demonic possession. These ailments are beyond purely physical nature. In true salvation we witness a gradual change to addiction and mental health problems and generally living less sinful lives. Besides this is sanctification through the new Holy Spirit. And here the whole process is not excorsism but prayer ,worship,preaching and realy actually its the lifestyle of an elect saint.

So It graples my surprise when we have people who say demonic activity is not real and evil witchcraaft activity is an illusion. So then if its not real then Jesus Christ chasing demons and making the deaf with demons speak is an illusion, invariably then even the presence of the Holy Spirit is an illusion. The story of the scorcerer in acts is an illusion and the list goes on.

I dare say I will take the Bible seriously and know that God has saved me from many evil Spirits which roam and inhabit the unsaved. I pray for such to be saved and this is a real prayer to a real god for a real affliction that is on earth. So those who deny these Biblical facts may be blinded by the evil one who blinds them from the truth to believe a lie that evil and satan is a Biblical myth as atheists believe
