The other day, a friend of mine asked me if I believed playing the Ouija Board game was considered to be "wrong." He thought the game to be a harmless, fun game that was good for a few laughs, and maybe even some good old-fashioned scares at the expense of the easily frightened.
Let me relate a story I once heard years ago: A family moved into their new home and as "luck" would have it, strange and eerie things began to occur. The family, both confused and scared turned to the minister from their church to "exorcise" whatever was causing these supernatural manifestations. When the minister arrived, he was immediately led to the pantry inside the kitchen. The minister asked if the family would allow him to remove some of the paneling from the back wall, and with their permission, he did so only to uncover a small, hidden compartment built into the wall. Inside this unit was quite the stash of pornographic magazines some previous owner had obviously forgotten about. Of course, the magazines were removed and thus ended the strange and paranormal activities for that family - just like that.
In the spiritual realm, to put it simply, good is attracted to good and evil is drawn to evil. Where there is light there can be no darkness. Can certain objects - those that have a dark connotation and even those that are not seemingly outright evil, carry with them the spiritual forces of a dimension invisible to our eyes?
Let me flip that question and share 2 Samuel 6:11 from the Bible. "And the ark of Jehovah remained in the house of Obed-edom the Gittite three months: and Jehovah blessed Obed-edom, and all his house." ASV
Because a man died when he physically touched the most holy and revered Ark of the Covenant of Israel, King David became afraid and ordered the sacred vessel to be placed in a man's house for three months. We read that God blessed that man and all his house!
I'll quote a favorite phrase/question of mine. "Just because we cannot see something with our eyes, does that mean it does not exist?"
I'll leave the answers up to you!
