Do We Have An Angry God?

“Those who deny God’s anger and wrath, well… they are drunk on their devised cocktails of squishy-tolerances-laced with perverted love. They are so drunk on their imaginary versions of god that they fail to realize that we have offended God with our sins and that He would be completely fair in giving us temporal and eternal punishments. Indeed, if God were to smite all of mankind to hell, He would be morally just in doing so, for it is what we deserve. Please let all of this sink in. If it makes you uncomfortable – good. If this makes you unsettled – good. If you don’t like to hear about God’s anger – good. If this sounds politically incorrect – good. Hearing about God’s anger should have the effect of causing you discomfort. If it does not cause you discomfort, then what I am about to tell you will not make any sense. If you do not comprehend the anger of God, you will not be able to appreciate and rejoice in the cross of Christ.”

What is the Greater Miracle that Jesus spoke of?

The Greater Miracle that Jesus spoke of in John 14: 12-14

Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father. Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.

— John 14:12-14

Is about Pastors preaching The Word and Laypeople sharing the Gospel:

Jesus & Him Crucified and being Raised from the Dead. Then watching God & Jesus/the Word transforming unbelievers from the children of Satan to Children of God!

“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God.”

— John 3:16-21

For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that He appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve. After that He appeared to more than five hundred brethren at one time, most of whom remain until now, but some have fallen asleep;

— 1 Corinthians 15:3-6

My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous; and He Himself is the propitiation for our sins; and not for ours only, but also for those of the whole world.

— 1 John 2:1-2

Is there a such thing as a Christian Magician and Illusionist?

Am I being a stick in the mud & trying to keep Christians from having fun? Or are we as Christians abusing “our Christians Liberty”

Is there a such thing as “Christian” magicians and illusionist, who evangelizes and shares the gospel.

Also do you know where magician and illusionist come from, is it from the demonic? What I’ve been reading yes and goes back to the Egyptians. It was part of their religious practice.

Magic & illusionist was considered sorcery/witchcraft but now it tricks/entertainment.

We know that people can’t be “Christian” psychics/mediums for entertainment.

As someone who used to practiced Reik, healing circles, Psychic readings and tarot cards. Sadly I thought I could be a Christian & evangelize and share the gospel while I was doing Reiki and so on.

I struggle with a Christian, saying a Christian can practice Magic and illusions, when I know that it’s rooted into witchcraft & the demonic.

I recognized that the Enneagram was also demonic and rooted in the occult before a lot of people were saying anything. I had Christians, even Pastors telling me how wrong I was, sadly.

Am I, one crying out in the wilderness.

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, or one who casts a spell, or a medium, or a spiritist, or one who calls up the dead. 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. You shall be blameless before the LORD your God. For those nations, which you shall dispossess, listen to those who practice witchcraft and to diviners, but as for you, the LORD your God has not allowed you to do so.
— Deuteronomy 18:10-14

And many of those who practiced magic brought their books together and began burning them in the sight of everyone; and they counted up the price of them and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver.
— Acts 19:19

But for the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”
— Revelation 21:8

Outside are the dogs and the sorcerers and the immoral persons and the murderers and the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices lying.
— Revelation 22:15
