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
