A Christian response to someone involved in witchcraft involves a delicate balance of compassion and truth. On one side, it is important to approach this person without judgment and with the utmost love so that there is a safe environment for a meaningful discussion. On the other side, it is essential to communicate God’s truths about the dangers of involvement in the occult and the only path to spiritual salvation through Jesus Christ.
The first step in this process is to understand where the person is coming from without prejudice. To do this, it is important to be aware of commonly held views around witchcraft. Remember, this person’s beliefs may differ greatly from yours, and they are likely not doing it to spite God.
The person may have been drawn to witchcraft because they are seeking power and knowledge and are looking to explore the spiritual world. Trying to understand their motivations and struggles can help you respond in a caring way.
Second, a Christian response could involve communicating the consequences of dabbling in the occult. The Bible makes it clear that involvement in witchcraft is wrong (Deuteronomy 18:10–12), and those who practice it will be judged. Explain that the power of witchcraft comes from spiritual forces that are ultimately from the enemy and are not from God.
Remind the person that only the power of Jesus Christ can provide true freedom from sin (John 8:36) and that only through spiritual and mental renewal through Him can one be truly liberated.
Third, the ultimate goal of a Christian response is to provide a way for the other person to be saved from the spiritual darkness they may be in. Share God’s plan of redemption with them, which includes acknowledging they have sinned and accepting Jesus Christ as their Savior (Romans 10:9–10).
Make sure to emphasize that God loves them and is longing for a relationship with them, despite their past. Offer passages from the Bible that can encourage them to turn towards God, such as Jeremiah 29:11–13. Finally, make sure to stay involved in the person’s life in a loving and supportive way. Pray for them often and be available to talk whenever they may need it.
The goal is to be a light in a dark situation and point them towards the ultimate source of hope and truth. Having a Christian response to someone involved in witchcraft can be a difficult process, but with patience, grace, and kindness, it is possible to draw them out from under the control of the occult and back to the only one who can save them—Jesus Christ.
In conclusion, ask the Holy Spirit to give you the wisdom needed to call this person out of darkness into Christ's wonderful light.
