以賽亞書 8:19
When someone tells you to consult mediums and spiritists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living?
有人對你們說:「當求問那些交鬼的和行巫術的,就是聲音綿蠻,言語微細的。」你們便回答說:「百姓不當求問自己的神嗎?豈可為活人求問死人呢?」
羅馬書 10:17
Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.
可見信道是從聽道來的,聽道是從基督的話來的。
申命記 18:10
- 12
Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft,
or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead.
Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord; because of these same detestable practices the Lord your God will drive out those nations before you.
你們中間不可有人使兒女經火,也不可有占卜的、觀兆的、用法術的、行邪術的、
用迷術的、交鬼的、行巫術的、過陰的。
凡行這些事的都為耶和華所憎惡;因那些國民行這可憎惡的事,所以耶和華你的神將他們從你面前趕出。
申命記 18:9
- 12
When you enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not learn to imitate the detestable ways of the nations there.
Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft,
or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead.
Anyone who does these things is detestable to the Lord; because of these same detestable practices the Lord your God will drive out those nations before you.
「你到了耶和華你神所賜之地,那些國民所行可憎惡的事,你不可學著行。
你們中間不可有人使兒女經火,也不可有占卜的、觀兆的、用法術的、行邪術的、
用迷術的、交鬼的、行巫術的、過陰的。
凡行這些事的都為耶和華所憎惡;因那些國民行這可憎惡的事,所以耶和華你的神將他們從你面前趕出。
使徒行傳 19:17

Many of those who believed now came and openly confessed what they had done.
A number who had practiced sorcery brought their scrolls together and burned them publicly. When they calculated the value of the scrolls, the total came to fifty thousand drachmas.

那已經信的,多有人來承認訴說自己所行的事。
平素行邪術的,也有許多人把書拿來,堆積在眾人面前焚燒。他們算計書價,便知道共合五萬塊錢。
以弗所書 6:12
For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
因我們並不是與屬血氣的爭戰(原文作摔跤;下同),乃是與那些執政的、掌權的、管轄這幽暗世界的,以及天空屬靈氣的惡魔爭戰。

The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie,
這不法的人來,是照撒但的運動,行各樣的異能、神蹟,和一切虛假的奇事,
