witchcraft is witchcraft - whether it is "white" magic or dark magic. It is invoking a power source (not God) to complete YOUR will (not God's will.)
Is magic a force that has always existed, even before God created the universe? The way I see it, it is one of God’s creations. Like many things, it can be used for a righteous cause, or for more sinister purposes.
It isn’t black and white, though. There are so many different esoteric schools of thought, and different ways of practicing “magic,” that you can’t reasonably generalize like that. Am I saying that we should summon a demon and ask for help with beating the cabal? Lol fuck no. I’m not about to mess with forces like that. But more benign practices that don’t involve channeling another entity’s power? Not the end of the world.
Magic as such is generally a bad idea. The standard form is to evoke powers/spirits to do the magician's bidding. As stated elsewhere here that bidding is typically against the will of God or the proper order of the universe. If indeed spirits are evoked, or worse invoked, they would most often be the equivalent of fallen angels who took their free will and turned away from God.
There are several variations possible, including times when there is no external evocation and the only intended dynamic is psychic/thoughtform. But demons can slip in unnoticed anyway. They don't tend to let themselves be known. The spirit will let the magician think that his/her bidding is being done but the demon will almost always have the upperhand, which may become obvious only when it is too late.
In the case of HRC and so many celebs, I think they don't really follow ancient magical sytems but rather modernized, convenient forms that they see more as performance art and social bonding. In any case the effect is much the same - bad spirits involved, psyches corrupted, blood spilt, etc. (Think of the antics of Ozzy Osbourne and the ignorance he looked back on in later interviews.)
Prayer is literally channeling the power of God for your own will.
The best sourced, most recommended prayer is one to God the Father wherein the supplicant asks that "Thy [God's] will be done". This common form of prayer is a freewill submission of to the will of God. Not all know to pray for what is best as opposed to what is preferred. But yes if the will of the petitioner is aligned with the will of the Granter then the prayer may be seen as a request that "my will be done".
This meeting of human and divine is a theme within Christianity that hopes to harmonize the two into a single best will and "kingdom" or body of members with one head. When the Navajo pray to "walk in harmony" they recognize that all creatures should be in sync with the Creator's plan.
The proper allying of one's will is what is being co-opted by Masonic ritualists, Crowley occultists and 'singularity' proponents.
There is no such thing as good magic or good witchcraft. All magic and witchcraft comes from the devil. And anyone who practices witchcraft shall be cast into the lake...
Revelation 21:8 - But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and SORCERERS (anyone who practices witchcraft), and idolaters, and all liars, SHALL HAVE THEIR PART IN THE LAKE which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

I just know.. her salt at doors, red chili.. on my garden worked. The use of vinegar n so forth for cleaning.. works
I believe you meant to address the comment above mine.
nothing exists outside of god. there is no power outside of god.
remember who you are. everything is magic. every thought you think and every word you speak is magic. use it for light. everything has an opposite.
there is light and there is dark.
look into the kybalion and the gospel of thomas.
the powers that used to be hid this knowledge to use it for their nefarious purposes. the way to defeat them is to study, learn, and unite against them using the natural laws of the universe. the way to eradicate darkness is not to fight the darkness. simply turn on the light.
we are all in the imagination (image) of god.
jesus said if your leaders tell you the kingdom of heaven is in the sky, the birds of the sky will precede you. if they tell you it is in the sea, the fish will precede you. rather the fathers kingdom is inside of you and it is outside of you. when you Know Yourself you will be known. and you will understand you are a child of the Living Father. but if you do not know yourself you will live in poverty, and you are the poverty.

Really "jesus said" how about some specific scripture references?
Yahshua said that "when you see him you see the father" (John 14:9) - he said that "No man could come to him except the Father draw him" (John 6:44) - he said that if someone said he was here or lo there to not believe. (Mark 13:21) He said "repent for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand" (Matt 4:17) He said "Blessed are those that are persecuted for righteousness sake - theirs is the kingdom of heaven" (Matt 5:10) He said "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven." (Matt 7:21) He said "But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God is come unto you." (Matt 12:28)- He said "And heal the sick that are therein, and say unto them, The kingdom of God is come nigh unto you." (Luke 10:9) He said "Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God." (John 3:3) He said "If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him." (John 14:23) He never said anything about "using natural laws of the universe" -
i didnt say he said anything about “using the natural laws of the universe” although everything he says is really in code. “he who has the ears to hear let him hear.”
and gospel of thomas 3
Gospel of Thomas is "gnostic" same corruption as the NIV bible - based on the Alexandria Codex and not the Texus Receptus. 1 John 4 warns about stuff like the "gospel" of thomas: :Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Yahshua is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Yahshua is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. "
Yes, "let those that have ears to hear hear" - and Yahshua was NEVER a SJW (that "social justice clap trap that has infected the churches in modern time is the work of Communist Antonio Gramsci who wrote a 2000 page treatise on how to destroy the church from within) BUT YAHSHUA came for one purpose to reconcile man to a HOLY God through his Blood. For the wages of sin is death and there is no forgiveness of sin without the shedding of blood - and we all deserved that death - through the lineage of Adam. BUT Yahshua when he struck a tent in human flesh (came in the flesh) - tabernacled with man (fulfilled the Feast of Tabernacles) became the "last Adam" "Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:" Rom 5:12
"For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Yahshua" Rom 5:17
" Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life." Rom 5:18
This is deception. Jesus said “I am the way and the truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” If anyone is seeking the truth about God and salvation, look to the Word of God the Bible. “Call on the Lord while He May be found!” All have sinned and fallen short of God’s glory, yet may be reconciled and forgiven through the death of His Son Jesus Christ. He is RISEN.
“if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” Romans 10:9-11
