“Take off on an epic adventure with Luz as she explores a magical world full of witches, demons, and mysterious supernatural creatures! Watch ‘The Owl House’ on Disney Channel.” 

When a promotional announcement starts off like that, you know we’re in for trouble. This quote was taken directly from a Disney Channel announcement about an upcoming series that is aimed at children. From the plot lines released so far, demons, witches, and witchcraft will be the themes of this new series. And it won’t be a biblical view of such topics. The gist of this “House” revolves around a teenage girl named Luz, who finds a magical portal leading to a witch named Eda. Luz forms a bond with Eda to become a witch’s apprentice. As with Harry Potter, witchcraft is seen as an affirmative tool to fight evil. “Newsweek” magazine claims that one of the originators of the series wanted to make the “demon realm feel like home.” There’s a “good witch” named Azura, lovable little demons, and a “Boiling Isle” Hell, that’s not exactly eternal damnation. No wonder that the Christian-based American Family Association has launched a petition drive for the Disney Channel to cancel the show. Good for them! 

We’ve been down this road so many times with Disney (beneficent witchdoctors in “The Lion King” and benign sorcery in “Frozen” for example) we shouldn’t be shocked. But the official rating for this series recommends it for children as young as age seven! We’ve heard this demonic pitch before from J. K. Rowling (author of the Potter books) and countless TV programs. It goes like this: Witchcraft can be good or evil depending on the motive of the participant; the supernatural isn’t an arena of the devil v. God but an exploratory realm of delightful phenomena for the curious.  

Nearly half of the people who schedule Personal Spiritual Encounters with me have dabbled in such dribble via the New Age, yoga, meditation, or mind control. They have been victimized by psychics, fortune tellers, reiki practitioners, success gurus like Tony Robbins, and deceptive wizards like Deepak Chopra and Wayne Dyer. Beware the so-called wisdom of anyone who fails to heed the warning of Isaiah 8:19: “When men tell you to consult mediums and spiritists . . . should not a people inquire of their God?” Avoid anything that violates the principles of Scripture, even if it is a wise, old owl.

November 5, 2017, Devin Kelley walked into a small Baptist church in Sutherland Springs, Texas, and opened fire during Sunday morning services. The ensuing massacre resulted in 26 dead and two dozen seriously injured. Little more than a week ago, Keith Thomas Kinnunen, attempted a similar mass murder at the West Freeway Church of Christ in White Settlement, Texas. Kinnunen began shooting during communion service with over 200 in attendance but was only able to kill two individuals. His sister said that the incident happened on the anniversary of their brother’s suicide, and that Keith was on a mission to to have his own life taken.  

The difference between the kill count of Sutherland Springs and White Settlement was due to a shot fired by Jack Wilson, a security Guard who shot Kinnunen just six seconds after the killer opened fire. In addition to Wilson, another dozen or so congregants pulled their guns in self-defense. If Wilson hadn’t shot the murderer, others were ready to take him out. Afterwards, Wilson commented, “’I’m thankful to God that I have been blessed with the ability and desire to serve Christ in the role of head of security at the church. Evil does exist in this world and I and other members are not going to allow evil to succeed.” 

Scores of people might have been murdered by Kinnunen except for a law the state of Texas passed in the aftermath of the Sutherland Springs tragedy. The law allows church members to carry concealed weapons as a deterrent to incidents such like this. In the aftermath of the Sutherland slayings, the Texas State Attorney General prophetically stated, “It’s going to happened again. If more church-goers were armed, there’s always the opportunity that the gunman will be taken out before he has the opportunity to kill very many people.”  

Think of how this applies to spiritual warfare and deliverance. Christians are being taken out by the devil because God’s people aren’t trained and armed to fight back. I earlier quoted armed security guard Jack Wilson saying that he was “not going to allow evil to succeed.” That’s the attitude needed toward today’s evil onslaught of witchcraft, the New Age, a corrupt culture, and creeping political godlessness. One man made the different at White Settlement Church of Christ, saving countless lives. You can be that one person to stop the spiritual slaughter of Satan in your community, church and family, if you are armed and dangerous and know how to cast out the devil. Our International School of Exorcism will give you the spiritual firepower you need. Enroll today and be the one person who stops allowing evil to succeed.
