~ Dangers Of The Ouija Board ~
You will find them in the toy aisle under games for children, but the dangers of the ouija board is nothing to play with. As believers, God forbids Christians to touch the unclean things and to participate in the unfruitful works of darkness. The ouija board is an object of contact between this world and the unseen world also known as the spirit realm where people communicate with demons. These demons, often disguised as family members who have died.
Definition of Necromancy
1 : Conjuration of the spirits of the dead for purposes of magically revealing the future or influencing the course of event. The practice of summoning and talking to the dead is called necromancy. God forbids His children to participate in these works of darkness but there are many Christians who think it’s not real and is just harmless fun. Using the Ouija board to bring up the spirits of the dead leads to both destruction and death.
The Dangers of Touching Unclean Things
Playing with the ouija board, whether for fun or for contacting the dead is a dangerous practice. Using objects such as the ouija board to channel the spirit realm and unseen entities, opens you and your family up to demonic attacks, oppression and possibly demonic possession. We are warned in the Book of Ephesians to not waste our time with these things and to expose them as deeds of darkness by shining the light of God’s word on it.
Ephesians 5:10-12
You groped your way through that murk once, but no longer. You’re out in the open now. The bright light of Christ makes your way plain. So no more stumbling around. Get on with it! The good, the right, the true—these are the actions appropriate for daylight hours. Figure out what will please Christ, and then do it.
Don’t waste your time on useless work, mere busywork, the barren pursuits of darkness. Expose these things for the sham they are. It’s a scandal when people waste their lives on things they must do in the darkness where no one will see. Rip the cover off those frauds and see how attractive they look in the light of Christ.
Wake up from your sleep,
Climb out of your coffins;
Christ will show you the light!
So watch your step.
Use your head.
Make the most of every chance you get.
These are desperate times!
Q & A About The Ouija Board
Q: How Does The Ouija Board Work?
A: The Ouija board works when individuals use the board to contact spirits. Seldom do people who play this board realize that they are playing with and entertaining demons. The board will communicate that it is a person and will give the players a name. This name that the demon gives to the players will have the players thinking that they have contacted a person who has gone on to the “other side”.
The players will then develop a relationship with this “person” without realizing that they have formed a relationship with a demonic spirit. The more they play with the Ouija board and try to summon this “person” back, the more entangled they become with this demon spirit and the more of a relationship they form with it.
Q: Is There a Good Way To Play With The Ouija Board?
A: No, there is never a “good” way to play with the Ouija board. The Ouija board is one of the a tools that Satan uses especially with young people to introduce them into the world of the occult and the supernatural. It is a instrument by which demons contact the living and it is never good to play with demonic spirits.
Q: Is It Wrong To Try And Make Contact With My Loved One That Has Died?
A: This is what the Bible says:
Deuteronomy 18:9-11
For example, never sacrifice your son or daughter as a burnt offering. And do not let your people practice fortune-telling, or use sorcery, or interpret omens, or engage in witchcraft, or cast spells, or function as mediums or psychics, or call forth the spirits of the dead.
This is a direct commandment not to engage in any forms of the occult. It is a dangerous act and outside the will of God for our lives. Any time we operate outside the will of God for our lives, we open the door for Satan to come in and take over. The dead knows not what the living does and the dead cannot come back here to earth to communicate with us.
Q: Who Are Mediums Actually Talking To When They Make a Connection?
A: When a medium or psychic is trying to communicate with a person who has died, they are actually communicating with a familiar spirit. A familiar spirit is an evil spirit that has a relationship with a person or personality. It will communicate to a person what has happened in a persons, past and present situation and will try to speak into a person’s future as well. Satan knows everything that has happened to us in our past. This is what the psychic uses to entrap people with. When they begin to tell a person all about their past and have never met this person before, that individual begins to really believe in this psychic or medium, when all the time, this information about this person is being translated through familiar demon spirits.
Anything we ever need to know about our past, present and future should be consulted with through God. God has given us the Holy Spirit and this is the only spirit that we should ever be consulting with. God sent us His Holy Spirit in order to lead us into all truth. The Holy Spirit will bring you light and truth. It will never lead you into darkness and lies. Please do not be misled by Satan. He uses these tools like the Ouija board to deceive and trick people out of their fascination with the spirit realm or the supernatural. The spirit realm is not a joke. It is real, and it is not to be played with. Many people have played in this realm and died because of it’s powerful control.

1 John 1:5-6
This is the message we heard from Jesus and now declare to you: God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all. So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness; we are not practicing the truth.
1 John 2:7-11
Dear friends, I am not writing a new commandment for you; rather it is an old one you have had from the very beginning. This old commandment—to love one another—is the same message you heard before. Yet it is also new. Jesus lived the truth of this commandment, and you also are living it. For the darkness is disappearing, and the true light is already shining. If anyone claims, “I am living in the light,” but hates a Christian brother or sister, that person is still living in darkness. Anyone who loves another brother or sister is living in the light and does not cause others to stumble. But anyone who hates another brother or sister is still living and walking in darkness. Such a person does not know the way to go, having been blinded by the darkness.
Jude 1:6
And I remind you of the angels who did not stay within the limits of authority God gave them but left the place where they belonged. God has kept them securely chained in prisons of darkness, waiting for the great day of judgment.
Revelation 16:10-11
Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom was plunged into darkness. His subjects ground their teeth in anguish, and they cursed the God of heaven for their pains and sores. But they did not repent of their evil deeds and turn to God.
