Is
there another way out of witchcraft other than Jesus?
I can understand
how some people would feel this way. And I wish that I could tell
you that I know of a second way out. But I can't.
This witchcraft
problem is entirely a spiritual problem. It opens 'doors' to the spiritual
world. You might not want it to be a spiritual problem, or you might
wish it wasn't a spiritual problem, but it is. So, a spiritual problem
requires a spiritual solution.
In the Bible,
2 Corinthians 10:3-4 and Ephesians 6:10-18 say that if we're going
to fight spiritual battles, then we must use spiritual weapons.
Otherwise, it would
be like fighting a guy with a gun, while you only have a fly-swatter.
So, why does Jesus
have to be the only answer to this spiritual issue? Here's why....
If Satan is really
behind this practice of witchcraft, then who does he recognize as
an authority over him? When Satan comes to you to have access to your
life, who is the only one that he is going to recognize as having
more power than him? The only person that's ever defeated Satan is
Jesus Christ. He did so on the cross, and continues to defeat him
today. Matthew 28:18-20 says that Jesus has "all authority over
heaven and earth." Everything, every-single-thing that exists,
is under the authority of Jesus Christ. Nothing is above Him (Philippians
2).
I hope you don't
think that you'll be the second person to defeat Satan. Many people
have tried, and failed miserably. Satanic/demonic power is only going
to obey what is more powerful than them.
If Satan can't
keep you in witchcraft, then he'll try to trick you into leaving witchcraft
in a way other than Jesus. Why would he do this? Because if you're
not under the protection of Jesus Christ, then Satan still has a claim
on you.
So, the bottom
line is..... Jesus is the only answer to escape the power of Satan.
