Speaking as one who had the extreme misfortune to get involved in witchcraft, I want to say that the paragraph above is EXACTLY RIGHT ON. I started out probably looking for power (being an intellectual type, sometimes bullied, and not very physical) but it turned into a nightmare beyond description. The devil is perfectly willing to give you occult power if you seek it- but he hates you just as much as anybody else and will destroy you when it suits him.

If you are in any way involved with Harry Potter stuff, RUN FOR YOUR VERY LIFE! Getting involved with the occult is ghastly beyond belief (though it doesn't seem so at first). The sooner you get out, the easier it will be. And I also say this to the young people who I see are writing in here with questions: Harry Potter may not seem evil, but it is evil beyond description. ALL SORCERY, NO MATTER HOW INTENDED, IS ACTUATED BY THE DEVIL AND HIS DEMONS! And the devil is VERY, VERY, VERY CLEVER at fooling you and sucking you in.

When you are young, you often feel powerless so sorcery and witchcraft have an attraction, just like they did for me. BUT YOU WILL HATE IT BEYOND YOUR WILDEST DREAMS IN THE LONG RUN.

If you care about yourself, do yourself the biggest favor of your life and stay far, far away from Harry Potter or anything in the occult. If you have been involved in the occult, you will almost certainly need the help of God and His Son Jesus to get free. God's power is greater than Satan's and he longs to rescue you.

I've been there, folks, and I wouldn't want anybody else to go.

In Jesus Name,
