Do you believe in witches?

And what is 'this stuff' that he was dabbling in?

Communicating with demons knowingly or not.

Fool? The fool is the one who dabbles in this stuff.

Even unknowingly?

Seems to me you had an acquaintance down the pub who would predict
game results and then loudly remind everyone at the bar when he got it
correct. Most pubs have one. They have no powers of prediction and do
not communicate with demons or other magical creatures.

So this guy, who you hardly knew, used to predict the outcome of football games despite having no interest in football or gambling and somehow you knew (but he didn't) that he was communicating with demons. You also think he was a fool for dabbling in that stuff. (even though he didn't know he was).

And you, although not 'dabbling in this stuff' did take the time to check his predictions (over more than 10 matches). But despite realizing that he was extraordinarily accurate with his predictions you chose not to capitalize on that fact (and potentially get very rich) because the source of the information was demons (although how you knew this is still a mystery - did the angels tell you perhaps?).

Man! You and Wolf like to assume a lot of things. This guy was a fellow employee in a place I worked over 40 years ago. One day as the conversation shifted to football, among several employees, he mentioned he knew who would win a few games.
It turned out he was right. No one took him seriously, just laughed it off.
That was the end of it. I happened to know he had admitted that he was a warlock.
End of story. Now if you want to imagine all kinds of scenario's that show me it is what YOU would have done, feel free.
I do not dabble in spiritism, it is ungodly and dangerous. And no, all I have to do is read God's word to know the truth. Your sarcastic remark about angels speaks loudly of your ignorance pertaining to spiritual matters.
Anyway, I am done being interrogated by the likes of people like you.

In which case we will have to assume a lot of things to fill in the gaps!

Just a few games? What 3 or 4 games ... and was mostly right? Anyone can do that!

Earlier you said
He knew nothing about football but could tell you if a team would win
Which is a totally different spin to him just giving the results to a "few games".

🙄

As Eric Morecambe would say "Warlocks"

But that completely contradicts your earlier statements about him.

A Warlock is an evil Wizard. The word is Germanic and it means "Oath-Breaker". They are allies of Orcus, Devil of the Broken Oath, and his minions, the Orcs and Ogres.

Once by using the stars someone said that the Marlins would beat the Yankees in game 7 at the bottom of the 9th and that is what happened.

I didn't know that.
That is eerie.
Makes you think doesn't it!

Didn't an octopus predict the winners of the World Cup?


Might have been a dream.

You would have lost your money. Vegas casinos exist because magic that can beat the odds doesn't.

In Leviticus 19 (one of the more inspiring chapters of the Bible) one is warned not to practice witchcraft. So it seems that witches predate Christianity.

Your translation is faulty. Leviticus warns the Israelites not to practice divination or follow diviners such as necromancers.

In other words, don't spend your money on "psychics" if you are an Israelite.
