Can I use a ouija board to communicate with God?

I dont see boards mentioned in the verses you quoted. Did you gain access to these demon worlds, you speak of, when you played as a child? If so, Then your comments should be well noted and taken into advisement.
Do you believe that there is a spiritual realm? What is the point of the game but to speak into the air and wait for a response from the air

Whose spirit do you think the participant is engaging?

Do you really think they will hear from GOD?

Or...familiar whispering lying spirits?

I dont believe that there is a spiritual realm....I know there is..so I can give honest opinions on it.

I do not know the point of the game because Ive never played it.....therefore I cannot give honest opinions on it.

I would suspect that one would engage the spirit they believe they will engage....when in doubt, the bible states how to test them.

I would suspect that they would hear from "God," if they believe they will....same with the familiar spirits.

I have to say, I dont know the purpose of your questions. Are you encouraging playing this game? ARe you another christian telling others never to do something they themselves never did before.....because of consequences they've never experienced but "believe" would occur if they did?

I, for one, would prefer to hear from those who have done it and have had negative or positive experiences. I dont see the value in "I read this, so i know you shouldnt do that!" Opinions are always welcomed and considered.....but to speak as an authority on something you have no experience in, helps very few.

Do you know the point of devil/demon worship ?
I prefer to spend my time studying how to worship the living God. So Im a bit rusty on my demon worshiping skills. If you feel that your knowledge of worshiping devils would be beneficial to christians, please feel free to share.

Today GOD speaks to us by HIS SON

And we can come to HIM directly in prayer.


We do not need anything to help our calling out to HIM


We aren't supposed to contact spirits to "test the spirits"

That wasn't what GOD meant by HIS WORD

When we speak to human beings we are able to discern just by the conversations we have with them (when discussing GOD and the TRUTHS of GOD) if they are led by HIS SPIRIT

Or not led by HIS SPIRIT

But we arent purposely supposed to go and contact spirits through any types of medium(s)

If we want to speak to GOD we call out in prayer to HIM


Read Isaiah 8

I agree with almost everything you said. Not sure why you feel we are at odds....unless confrontation is something you desire. The only thing I wouldn't say myself....is that i am supposed to do this and others are not supposed to do that. I know that God has told me to do things that you couldnt do...and probably the same goes in reverse. So I wouldn't say that because I can or cant do something, everyone else can or shouldnt do it as well. But I find no fault in you, if you imply that everyones walk with the Lord should be exactly the same as yours.....else hellfire? I just dont happen to see it that way.

We must all work out our own soul salvation with fear and trembling.

lol, imagine if, when God told abraham to sacrifice son, and He posted it on a forum: Title: Was this God or a familiar Spirit! Post: A spirit came to me today and told me to burn my son alive! what should i do?

Now how many replies would there have been condemning the angel of the lord!!!

I find it dangerous to demand that our word be taken as if it were the Lord's, instead of directing one to the Lord while still giving our own opinion.

Abraham knew GOD's voice

Many people today don't know GOD's Voice which is why they will entertain any and every other whispering spirit

Ok, I think I understand. If I felt I knew God's voice and everyone else did not, I would probably respond the same as yourself. I wasnt assuming that my knowledge was higher than anyone elses. Maybe I should in the future?

Bind up the testimony
And when they tell you to seek spirits should not a people consult their GOD?

To the dead (spirits) for the LIVING ONE?

NEVER!
This thread is not about seeking spirits. It is about contacting God through a Board. Do you have any experience with that?

You, if you know GOD's VOICE, should be quick to prevent those who don't from doing something that opens the wrong door unto the wrong spirits

Native war drums, like guitars are instruments that has someone at the helm who has hopefully given their talents over to God for His use. Interestingly in the OT times it was the musicians that led into battle.
How about playing the australian digareedoo in churches then?

But before reply..do a study into how the authentic instrument is made
What's the significance of how it's made??
Aboriginal didgeridoo craftsmen hunt for suitably hollow live trees in areas with obvious termite activity. Termites attack these living eucalyptus trees, removing only the dead heartwood of the tree, as the living sapwood contains a chemical that repels the insects.

You don't...Contact GOD through any false medium(s)

There's only one way that we have access to THE FATHER

And that is in by and through JESUS CHRIST

I believe that I am. I am just not knowledgable about a board opening up doors to negative spirits. I do have my opinions....but I choose not to state opinions as facts. Just say you have the experience that you know this happens, or that the Lord Himself told you.. and the case will be closed.

I don't have the experience

But I know that going to see mediums and psychics and these other things are diversions and deceptions and the work of the "wrong father"

And because I know what I know about the truth of spiritual realms I would never touch these things nor would I close a blind eye to any lamb who might think that this is a good and entertaining pastime

What changes if I study it versus simply play it?

It's kind of my point.

18 And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds.

19 Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. - Acts 19

At the revival at Ephesus they burned the ungodly books. The ouija board is also a good thing for the fire.

In a discussion earlier today we were discussing what happens in the spiritual if a born-again believer uses a native war drum to worship God?

The current argument is that the redeemed individual sanctifies the instrument.

Following the logic, is a ouija board an acceptable tool to communicate with God?

(For the record, I am not, nor have I ever endorsed using a ouija board to talk to God)
\

Lol.. not laughing at you.. my 1st words.. came out of my mouth "HOLY JESUS".

Well... you DONT play with that stuff. See what did satan say to Adam and Eve? What contract did Adam and Eve sign? Yeah.. nothing. That ONE TINY LIE.. did EVERYTHING you see now.

So.. when someone just plays with a board... they open that door they let it in.. and it NEVER COMES ALONE! It comes to steal kill and destroy. Not trying to scare you.. but you DONT EVER play with this stuff. Saying "I dont believe" means nothing to Satan. He does not have any rules... JESUS is the way the truth and the life.. JESUS believe in JESUS.. ask the Father as Jesus said for the holy Spirit..

He will give it.. and JESUS IS IN YOU! Talk to HIM! He will talk to you.. HE said.. my SHEEP KNOW my voice.. KNOW.. that means HE TALKS! TO YOU!
