Comments on Satanism in Ghost Adventures Live Halloween

In this installment I address the blatant satanism that is creeping in more and more in each episode of the Ghost Adventures. At first it appeared to be for ratings, but now the GA team has been dabbling long enough to know they're involved in full fledged satanism.

The Museum Live investigation episode that aired on Halloween completely supports this notion. Zak brought and gave legal grounds for a satanist witch to perform 24 hours worth of rituals for conjuring pure darkness (i.e. evil). He played ignorant in the show. But he knew full well what he authorized and carried out. These were pure satanic rituals on live tv. This is dangerous.

In the my blog entry, I identify the dark finger prints of satanism throughout the broadcast featuring the meeting of a so called white witch with a satanic priestess.

Roll the video...

The Church's Call to Readiness on Dealing with the Paranormal and the Occult

The media knows that the paranormal is a cash cow. Every channel you turn to now has some paranormal show. The shows are cheap to produce and guarantee viewer numbers. Ghost Hunters wasn't the first of these shows, but it certainly put the paranormal television shows on the map back in 2004. When the Ghost Hunters first aired, the internet was ablaze with amateurs trying to duplicate their efforts. Everyone on the internet was suddenly an expert in hauntings. Around the time Ryan Buell and Paranormal State debuted in 2007, paranormal television took a darker tone. The show was misleading in the fact that it led viewers to believe Ryan and Chip Coffee, the show resident psychic, were Roman Catholics. But the actions of what these people were doing on the show didn't add up. And they had a resident pagan on the team as an occult expert. The team would perform these weird rituals that sounded mildly Christian, but weren't, right before they would conduct a seance. It was in Paranormal State episodes where viewers were given front row seats to rituals on their family room television sets.

In 2008, Zak Bagans and the Ghost Adventure crew showed up on the Travel Channel. America watched the paranormal ghost hunting antics of Zak Bagans, Nick Groff, and Aaron Goodwin. Zak soon became the P.T. Barnum of the occult.  Nothing was sacred, and everything was presented haphazardly with no regard to the dangers of the occult. Zak and GA made for good paranormal show business. This show, and the Travel Channel's other paranormal show, The Dead Files, became the staples in leading people into the occult. I believe these two shows are what spiked the interest and popularity of modern voodoo. The rituals performed on Ghost Adventures are so dark, the episodes are absolutely unwatchable.This situation is now a critical issue in the spiritual health of America. These occult beliefs on the afterlife are now in the pews of American churches.

How should the church handle the paranormal? This is a multi-faceted question. How does your church handle spiritual warfare and the paranormal? The New Age has slipped into every church. Does your church have an understanding of what New Age beliefs have entered the church through parishioners or the pulpit? Pastors, are you aware of the duplicitous nature of your parishioners? Are you aware of those who go ghost hunting on Friday night and show up for duty on Sunday for your prayer ministry team? Are they doing Yoga or Reiki healing? These subtle practices are all New Age deception. Are they seeking psychics to contact the dead? Dabbling in paganism? This is stuff the church needs to get a handle on and correct if it is going to step in and deal with the occult. The church needs to equip her saints on what is spiritually dangerous. Many Americans in churches now believe there is more than one path to eternal life. The New Age and the occult are already in the pews.

Another major problem is that the occult offers the deception of revealing the truth to life after death. Do the members of your church body have a solid foundation in what lies ahead of them when their life ends here? What is their certainty of spending eternity with Jesus Christ?

What happens when you the pastor encounters the occult in your church? Do you understand the difference between low-level demonic deliverance and exorcism? Many Ph.D. seminaries taught pastors I have worked with thought that deliverance and exorcism are one in the same. They are not. Some peculiar theology surfaces in Mark 9:14-29, where a low-level demonic deliverance by the Apostles fails. When it comes to encounters with the occult, many pastors fall into this category of failure because they don't know the difference in warfare. Nor do they know the protocols necessary for different forms of warfare. The Western church has ignorantly built a false doctrine around deliverance practices that are based on being ministry success oriented rather than Biblical and scriptural. Let that one marinate in. Your whole library of spiritual warfare books could, in fact, be all useless.

Now one of my biggest peeves about paranormal shows is that they always feature a situation where the church failed. The church didn't fail, the pastor and the church were ill-equipped for the battle at hand. God created the spirit realm; He can put an end to ALL nasty warfare. NO BATTLE IS TOO BIG FOR JESUS!!!

A church stepping into battle simply can't do it blindly and follow the misleading books on the market. When you enter a house with occult activity, did you know you can't bind satan? Every deliverance minister I know thinks they can. Picking a fight with a satanic angel is ill-advised, there are huge, horrible repercussions of the ministers, and possibly ever the congregation.God never instructed us to battle satanic angels. The heavens belong to Jesus.

So what does a church do when it engages the occult to help someone? Again, there are protocols; they are presented in Mark 9:29 and Jude 8-10. Do you understand your prayer posture in warfare? When do you take authority and when do you petition Jesus?

The church needs to stand in her authority and truly understand the dynamics of spiritual warfare. Paranormal shows would be off the air if the church responded to people in spiritual distress. If the church can't handle the situation, it needs to step into the already established networks of Christian spiritual warfare ministers that can handle the occult and demonic activity.

If you are dealing with an occult situation, or demonic activity I strongly recommend you get equipped quickly and connect with ministers that are already involved in these battles. The biggest problem I have seen is that churches want to re-invent the wheel when it comes to spiritual warfare equipping. I don't know why this is, but its a common thread when our ministry reaches out to help churches.

Where does one start in equipping? I have written two books on these subject matters. A good starting point is A Field Guide to Spiritual Warfare. This is the beginning book that has something for everyone, I have been given excellent feedback that even seasoned deliverance ministers use this book consistently. Second, I have written a book for pastors, and counselors, who are dealing with these darker battles, this book is, A Field Guide to Advanced Spiritual Warfare. These books are well worth the investment in your ministry.

If you have any questions on how to deal with occult battles, please drop me a comment, and I will answer the question in blog posts.

Silencing Demonic Voices - Locutions

One of the most common forms of spiritual attacks my ministry deals with are mind attacks. There so common that every Christian has experienced these through spiritual warfare in one form or another. As an example, perhaps you have gone through life believing your never really good enough at something you wanted to do in life. Or perhaps, you feel like no one could ever love you. These are basic examples of how spirits can invade our thoughts and rational. This is why in Corinthians, the Apostle Paul tells us to take every thought captive.


2 Corinthians 10:5 5 We are destroying speculations and every lofty thing raised up against the knowledge of God, and we are taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ,


Spirits speak to all of us to inject ungodly beliefs into us. These are thoughts that steer us away from our identity in Jesus Christ. For some people these supernatural voices are far more desturctive and can cause harm to the individual hearing them. For some indiviudals, hearing these thoughts can be a living nightmare, causing depression or instructing people to harm themselves.

Voices - Spiritual, Medical and the Soul

From a ministry perspective there are several ways we hear voices and thoughts.

1. Locutions - spirits speak to us in our own minds and sound like our conscience. This is the most common way we all hear spiritual thoughts and voices. Class: spiritual, soul-intellect, soul-imagination

2. Dissiociations - people who survived life long traumas as children, such as repeated molestation,rape, and or forms of ritual abuse. These voices tend to be loud thoughts. People with dissociations tend to have committees in their own minds rather than singular patterns of thought from one identity. Class: spiritual, soul-fractured

3. Haullucinations - drug induced or occur from a medical condition. Class: medical

4. Bi-polar - person switches between personalities. Class: spiritual, medical

This is of course the short list I compiled. I want you to get the picture that not all voices are spiritual in nature. An immature deliverance minister treats everything demonic. There are natural reasons for hearing voices, the soul, there are medical reasons for hearing voices, drug addictions, mental illness, and medical disorders. Then there are the matters which are spiritual in nature, the locutions. If the reasoning for hearing voices is not spiritual in nature, deliverance ministry is not the answer.


I work with people who are ritual abuse survivors and people who survived life long trauma from molestation, rape and some were incest. Through the natural design of God's creation, these minds fractured to protect themselves from the inhuman and ungodly trauma they endured. This is called dissocitation identity disorder. Many Christians (deliverance ministers) who are untrained and don't have an ounce of spiritual discernment have done some horrible things to people with D.I.D. One woman I worked with, her church called the county hospital, when one of her identities was triggered in church. The pastor couldn't cast the demon out - go figure! Dissociation is not a demon. It is a human part. So this poor woman came out of her dissociation hand cuffed to a gerny in county hospital. I have story after story of these D.I.D. nightmares. Some people I worked with reported massively dissociating for weeks after Sozo ministers tried to minister to fractured parts. Nothing wrong with Sozo, it's just that low level demonic deliverance and Sozo inner healing don't work on fractured identities. Are you going to deliver or do Sozo on 1000 or more identities in one individual? I didn't think so. We use a different approach in ministry for inner healing and it is long term. We work with people for a year of longer for full healing and integration into one primary identity.


I look for everything when someone comes to me and tells me they're hearing voices. Take your time and learn to understand the person. Listen to their story and make them feel comfortable when they're around you. If there is a dissociation involved be prepared to catch a change in personality even if it looks demonic. This is why you need to understand you spiritual discernment. The rest of this discussion I am going to focus on locutions. These are Six Dwelling Places (or Mansions) mystical experiences. The sources are self (your soul), spiritual, and God.


You don't have to be in a poltergeist active home to receive internal and external locutions from spirits. As I opened with 2 Corinthians 10:5 lying spirits try to oppress all of us - all the time. Some of us have the will to stand in our authority and fight back. Some don't. And some become obsessed by the severity of the torment that they begin to beleive the lies. This is where the lies become an ungodly belief system inside of your soul and it's very distructive.

Dealing with Voices - Internal Locutions

Recenlty, I started working with an individual who was receiving heinous thoughts of hurting people they loved. This individual knew full well these weren't their thoughts. They came in quickly, in a flash, and portrayed horrible pictures of stabbing a loved one. This person was freaked out by these quick flashes. After sitting down and talking with this person the ministry team discovered that this person was starting to get nightmares of the same thing. The individual themselves were perfectly sane and it was nowhere in their character to harm any living creature. There were no dissociations in this person. They were whole, body, soul and spirit. So what the heck was going on?


These thoughts are demonic locutions. Thoughts injected into the mind from a spiritual source - the demonic. People who live in homes with demonic activity will experience this. But it is not the only means this can occur. There can be some strange demonic attachment, from somewhere else. It can be generational or happened through something else in life.


We listened to this individual and took some notes. This is where a good ministry team always starts. We listen for them to tell their story. We listen and document the ungodly belief system. This is the road map the demons are using to bring the person into the obsession of lies. Then we have the person renounce and repent of the ungodly belief system. At the very end of the session we'll use prophetic ministry to speak into the person's life.


Now anyone who has ever had a session with me knows, I don't do the fighting for you. People come for ministry and think I am going to roll the magic deliverance bones - break curses and send them on their way. Go ahead and laugh. But that's what a lot Christian's think deliverance ministry is. When I minister with people I teach them how they can fight back. Give a man a fish and you feed him for a meal. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for life. I joke with my clients and tell them I am their new sensei. I am going to teach you how to fight. If I teach you to fight - I don't have to lose a weekend with my family. You get built up in your spiritual life and learn your authority. It is a win-win! Every new deliverance ministry makes the mistake of running to people and helping them. If you read this - stop it! Make them come to you! I found out those who really wanted help made the time to come to me. Those who didn't wasted some other ministers time. So this is time effective. It cuts your ministry in half and weeds out those who are distracting spirits. As a friend of mine in ministry shared with me, we are not an urgent care ministry.


About a year ago I had a woman call me and frantically ask me if I could meet for her for prayer as soon as possible. I asked her why she needed me so soon. She said her room mate returned from South America and had spoken to a shaman. The shaman said that this woman, the one who called me, is cursed. She was terrified on the phone and again asked me how soon could she meet with me. I told her I didn't need to meet with her, and that she just needed to repent to God for allowing the lies of the enemy to cause fear in her life. This woman became irrate at me. I told her not to be upset, I just gave you a nickels worth of free advice. Repent for believing the lie of the room mate and the shaman - and MOVE ON!!!! This woman called another deliverance minister! I just want to see how mindless we can be in situtations like this. Christians don't have a solid background in their own faith! Jesus created these spiritual beings. He can deal with them too! In fact my Jesus can spank these things senseless. He saw Satan fall like lightning! Don't beleive me? Go look it up!

When Spirits Attack

When the spirit realm attacks, you need to know Jesus phone number, Jeremiah 33:3! Let me set up a scenario for you. Your home alone, a demonic locution occurs. Whether it is dropped into your mind, and some of these can be visual, like you see a ghost in a mirror. This is a demonic locution. It may freak you out and that's okay at first - but consider this. If a local gang member came to your house and spray painted it with grafitti, would you sit in your house and cowar? Or would you call the authorities and demand justice? Of course you would call the police and demand the perps be arrested. Now consider this, many of the low level demons are gang bangers. They're even setup in a similar hierarchy. When the demonic show up. Call the authority - YOU!!!!


Step one. A horrible locution just dropped into your mind. Recover quickly. Your in battle mode now, and not fright and victim mode. Turn on some worship music. Any worship music that puts you in the ZONE! I am a pandora.com user, there are the Jesus Culture and Hillsong United stations. Use those for thermonuclear response. Like I said, whatever it is that gets you in the ZONE!! You are preparing for receiving God. We start by opening ourselves to receive God. Sit in your chair, and still your mind. You need to train yourself to quiet your inner self during these times so you can go to Jesus. This is a basic form of meditation. I am not talking about Eastern meditation or Yoga meditation. THESE ARE BAD!!! And open you up to more demonic torment. Don't harp on me about Christian yoga. I have yoga stories from my minsitry experience that you don't want to hear! Back to Christian meditation (Psalm 1:2, 1 Tessalonians 1:5).

The reason we are going to our still place is because we are responding to the demonic incursion.
When the demons attack, you are going to go to Jesus! The purpose of the attack is to turn you from Jesus. This is the first stage of demonic obsession. This form of meditation will be hard at first. But it will gradually develop to the point of where all you have to do is think about going to your quiet place. This takes work and it pays off in the long run of shutting voices down and taking back your thoughts.

Don't pay attention to the garbage on the paranormal shows. What is more powerful? Blessed Holy Water or the indwelling Holy Spirit inside of you?


Step 2. I want you to go to Matthew 6 and meditate on the Lord's prayer. If you are under spiritual attack,  recite the words of the Lord's Prayer out loud and do it calmly and slowly. Try to meditate on each word as you recite them. This is bringing you into God's domain in the fight. You are removing yourself from the state of fear and into the protective arms of God. I use this in sessions where angelic majesties manifest. I have seen stuff far beyond what Nick, Zach, and Aaron have caught on camera in Ghost Adventures. Levitation, astral projection, and teleportation, I have witnessed in my ministry. Learning to quiet yourself and be in the presence of God is critical in supernatural warfare. Many people whom I have worked with in teaching them this, have later assisted me in ministry. You have to learn to fight for yourself. Reciting the Lord's prayer out loud brings the entire embodiment of both flesh and spiritual into the prayer. This is very powerful. Still under attack? Repeat reciting the Lord's Prayer. Don't do it mindlessly. Focus on the words and who God is.

Your Kingdom COME!!! Your will be DONE!!


You are now positioning yourself in warfare. Stating to the heavenly realms - I don't receive this demonic broadcast or torment. I am going to Jesus Christ, King of kings and Lord of lords! You will most likely, as your starting out, get more mind attacks. This is okay. The spirits don't want you understanding your spiritual authority. They will put on whatever show they can to distract you. And this sounds weird - but this is a good thing. Now you know they are upset at you for stepping out of their boundaries. Your changing their game on them. They don't lke that. Step out of fear and into Jesus.


Step 3. Integrate the inner quieting into your time when reading the Bible. This is not just for warfare. You need to learn how to receive Jesus during your non-combat time. Beginners start by meditating (reading) the Bible. There are basically two forms of meditation that occur naturally while reading the Bible. These are discursive and contemplative meditation. Some people are discursive in their meditation. That means they read the words in the Bible and the intellect analyzes and memorizes it. Some people are contemplative, where there imagination portrays the words like a movie as they read through the scripture. Take the time to discover who you are. I was always taken back by the difficulty I had in memorizing scripture. Some people could do it with relative ease. I found it to be extremely difficult. Too much emphasis is placed on discursive meditation by the church. God knows we're all special needs kids, so we can be discursive or contemplative. Take the time to discover who you are. I honestly have people come to me for deliverance because they can't memorize scripture. In 99% of the cases, this is simply because they don't know if they are discursive or if they are contemplative by design - learn which you are. I did have one case, where a man couldn't read the read letters of the Bible (Jesus words). And it wasn't because he was color blind. This was a read flag for needing deliverance. The enemy was preventing him from reading Jesus' words.

Conclusion

Did you find it odd that I didn't mention I was going to run over and bless someones house who was having these locutions? I occasionally bless houses now. I found it is best to invest my time in turning a victim into a spiritual MMA fighter. If I did my job correctly, blessing their own home shouldn't be an issue with them. My first step in training is taking back one's own mind.  Just as I described above.

This is warfare so there will be volleys fired back and forth. The quieting of the mind is essential in learning to hear God during warfare. The stillness and peace bring in God. Chaos brings the demonic. Cut yourself some slack when you do this. I recommend practicing daily - whether you are under attack or a new Christian setting out on your baby steps walk with God. This becomes invaluable as you walk in your spiritual life. It's a life journey. The first steps are renouncing sin and locking out the enemy out of your mind!

 The big snag I have found in training Christians is that too many people who come to me for help seem to have a poor foundation in their own faith. Many have been Christians nearly all their life and don't know who Jesus is. But this is an issue at the pulpit. If you're living in fear or locutions, or living a nightmare in a haunting, bring Jesus into the situation - and not Amy Allan.

By now, some of you have figured out that I haven't mentioned a word about demonology. I won't.
I am an exorcist that focuses on the supernatural ministry of Jesus Christ. I could careless about demonology. What I presented hear on quieting and meditation far out ways anything else. Whether in your personal prayer life or seeking help in spiritual matters. What I have found through this is that so much about demonology is a lie from the enemy it is absolutely worthless in pursuing. Don't think I am ignorant of these matters. Its just that I don't need it. Jesus solves problems in unfathomable ways that I don't waste my time with what is not in synch with Him.

There is so much I covered here feel free to comment and ask questions.

A Field Guide to Spiritual Warfare - the Power to PULL the IMPOSSIBLE from the HEAVENLY REALMS

Curse Breaking Series - Ghost Hunters and Spiritism Part III

^{Necromancy - Consulting the  Dead}

<sup>In this installment of, A Field Guide to Spiritual Warfare - the Blog, in our series on Curse Breaking - Ghost Hunting and Spiritism, we're going to examine necromancy and divination, and it's cultural relevance in ghost hunting and Christian beliefs. 

If you have just dived into this series, you can take a look at the first 2 parts in this series, Part I - Spiritualism and Part II - Saul Consults the Long Island Medium. In Part III we're going to examine necromancy and divination, and how ghost hunting Christians, have not only stepped over a fine line of God's, but have trampled on it. 

My background is in deliverance ministry and exorcism. If you read my blogs you'll notice I am not too fond of 95% of the deliverance books that are out there. I actually quit buying deliverance books once I became assertive in my own spiritual authority to stand up to the forces of darkness. I have been walked through this training by the Holy Spirit. Myself, and my team have done, close to, if not well over, 1000 cases with supernatural battles against the forces of darkness. These all involved some form of house (with activity, murder scene, etc) blessing, deliverance, major curse breaking from the occult, spirit detachment or an exorcism. My team is in no way involved in any paranormal investigations. We are a ministry team to assist people with supernatural battles beyond the scope of their local church clergy. I just want you to keep this in the back of your mind when you read something I write here that may really sound crazy to you. I draw upon my battlefield experience. Not from some deliverance book that was ghost written for some popular Christian mega pastor-author-speaker based on his voice recorder notes. Sorry. Sad but true. A lot of deliverance books are ghost written. The funny part is I am starting to hear these speakers quote A Field Guide to Spiritual Warfare - under the guise of what some would consider 'flattery'. Isn't imitation the greatest form of flattery? But even under 'flattery' you should really quote your sources. Some copy cat titles are beginning to emerge, such as The Real Life Field Guide. I mean excuse me, having battles with the occult, demonic shadow manifestations, and objects flying around your house during intercession wasn't real life? Again, it's another book ghost written - caveat emptor! Buyer beware!  So much for the integrity at the pulpit.

Well, I digressed. The information herein comes from battlefield experience. My intent isn't to get a bullhorn like those evangelists on the streets do and call out people's sins. My intent is to demonstrate to any of you who are Christians and ghost hunting, how dangerous of a mix this REALLY is. Christians participating in ghost hunting are already demonized with some sort of spiritual attachment. The attachment is in the disguise of wanting to go out to more spiritually active areas. Why? To load you up with more spirits! The rule of thumb is do not consult the dead. Ghost hunting is not seeking proof of the supernatural, it is consulting the dead for answers you should be seeking through your faith. You're asking the demonic for proof of your eternity. This information came from people our ministry had to clean up and detach dark spirits from.

There's a reason God instructed us not to mess with this. These spirits are demonic! Look at what the book of Deuteronomy says, Necromancy and Spiritism are FORBIDDEN under the law of God.</sup>

Spiritism Forbidden

⁹ “When you enter the land which the Lord your God gives you, you shall not learn to imitate the detestable things of those nations. ¹⁰ There shall not be found among you anyone who makes his son or his daughter pass through the fire, one who uses divination, one who practices witchcraft, or one who interprets omens, or a sorcerer, ¹¹ or one who casts a spell, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. ¹² For whoever does these things is detestable to the Lord; and because of these detestable things the Lord your God will drive them out before you. ¹³ You shall be blameless before the Lord your God. (Deuteronomy 18:9-13)

The law clearly states that "WHOEVER" does these things is in rebellion to God. The law doesn't stop there.
 

³¹ “‘Do not turn to mediums or seek out spiritists, for you will be defiled by them. I am the Lord your God. (Leviticus 19:31)

How are we defiled? By spiritual attachment and rebellion against the word of God. God is warning you that if you mess around with this stuff you WILL get proof of their existence. Only not in the form of proof you thought you would get. It would be in the form of severe demonic oppression or possession. The goofy thing is, my ministry has worked with Christians who have dabbled in the occult. When the Christian got demonized or got the mojo in the form of a curse, they went to a psychic or a gypsy to break the curse. Some people went to numerous psychic and gypsies (both are divination), paid thousands of dollars for useless help or got further demonized - before they came to Jesus for help! You will get defiled if you mess with this stuff. The worst defilement is the rebellion to God with your ghost hunting activities. This is what opens up a doorway to the demonic and it's you who holds the door open for them! You can't cry out to God for help and and at the same time usher in the demons. The more demons that come in the more they tell you Jesus cant help you. They're right. Jesus won't help you while you're being duplicitous in your spirituality. He'll let you go back to you own vomit (Proverbs 26:11). People always ask me, but Pastor Mike, how can a Christian be demonized? God allows us to have free will. Under this domain God allows for us to be stupid. Stupid is what gets you demonized! Pastor Mike, could you clerify stupid? Yes, it looks like this, when you're cursing yourself by going to demons for knowledge of the after-life. You need to consult God about supernatural matters - not the realm of darkness. If you're asking a spirit questions and demanding a response, this is seeking knowledge from demons.


In the book of Isaiah,

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? (Isaiah 8:19)

I have been using the New American Standard Bible (NASB) translation, but the King James Version (KJV) translation really brings it home. Let's look at these verses again, sometimes the KJV translation speaks for itself,

 

⁹ When thou art come into the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not learn to do after the abominations of those nations.
¹⁰ There shall not be found among you any one that maketh his son or his daughter to pass through the fire, or that useth divination, or an observer of times, or an enchanter, or a witch.
¹¹ Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
¹² For all that do these things are an abomination unto the Lord: and because of these abominations the Lord thy God doth drive them out from before thee.
¹³ Thou shalt be perfect with the Lord thy God. (Deuteronomy 18:9-13)
 

In Leviticus,

³¹ Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the Lord your God. (Leviticus 19:31)

Have you noticed a trend on what term was used in KJV? "Familiar spirits" - demons!
 
And Isaiah,

¹⁹ And when they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have familiar spirits, and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter: should not a people seek unto their God? for the living to the dead?
(Isaiah 8:19)

There it is again! Familiar spirits! So who are communicating with us in haunted houses? What is it that is twisting the flash light on and off, speaking through the spirit box, spelling out on the ouija or witch board, showing up as a shadow on the wall, giving a response with knocks, or leaving an EVP? It's a demon! The dead can't respond to you. If you believe this your not practicing the Christian faith you're a spiritist! The greatest danger aside from offending God is being sucked into a demonic obsession in speaking to the spirits.
 
Any and all form of communication with the dead is forbidden by the word of God. The spirit knocking and spirit boards were the method of choice of communication for some time. The spirit board is more commonly known as a OUIJA board.  The OUIJA board is so last millennium. So now spiritualists use digital voice recorders, that you can pick up at any office supply store, and have conversations with spirits. A spiritualist will ask a spirit questions, pause, and let the spirit speak. When playing back the conversation, paranormal investigators listen for spirit responses captured on the digital recording device.  Spirit boxes are another high tech toy that has a microprocessor the spirits can use to articulate speech through using computer phonemes. The spirit box has a dictionary of words the spirit can access and respond in real time to a paranormal investigator. Now you don't even need the medium to speak with the dead. The spirit box has gained popularity by it's regular usage on the Ghost Adventures show on the travel channel. As a side note, the Ghost Adventures crew, Zac Bagan, Nick Groff and Aaron Goodwin have all experienced demonic torment from their involvement in paranormal investigation. Aaron Goodwin has been an open book on Ghost
Adventures, that his marriage ended because of demonic spirits that attached to him, Zac and Nick, from their paranormal investigations. Zac still reports on his blogs he gets night terrors and physical attacks. Aaron, by the way, is an awesome down to earth guy. I met Aaron twice while ministering in Las Vegas. He'll never remember me. But I do remember what a great guy he is. He's the reason I tune into GA every week. One of these days Aaron Goodwin I would love to sit and have a chat with you. You have the M16 business card. Next time your in Northern California or I run into you in Vegas - let's go get a beer and share some stories. This Pentecostal pastor has some war stories you haven't heard yet!

Conclusion

Does contacting the dead still sound exciting to you?  If you have messed with contacting spirits and you know there is an oppression around you, repent! You may need a prayer team present if you are repenting of ghost hunting. You may find yourself unable to repent of this sin. That's the spiritual attachment at work.

Heavenly Father I come before you today to repent of my involvement of contacting the dead. I understand that what I did was against you and your Word. I ask for forgiveness and that I am cleansed from all assignments and curses I opened up on myself and my family line. I take ownership of my actions in spiritualism and paranormal investigation and I renounce my involvement in this. I repent for seeking spirits, angels and miracles in the afterlife. I repent for seeking power and knowledge from demonic sources. I repent fro not following the one truth – you Jesus. I ask that your truth set me free. I renounce Satan. In Jesus name I ask that I be made clean before your eyes and be made whole. I will sin no more in spiritualism and paranormal investigation. I ask that this curse be taken from me and I receive blessings from you God. In Jesus precious name I pray. AMEN.

Well, that's it for today. More to come.

Enjoy!
