SORTILEGE

Charismatics have well worn bibles. They read a lot of Bible scriptures at prayer meetings. That could be a good thing, but it isn’t. You see the Bible is used with a type of divination, called sortilege. This is how it works. You open up your bible at random with the intent of finding out what specific message the Holy Spirit has for the meeting. You then read the passage and everyone goes “praise the Lord" and "thank you Jesus” Then the next person opens up the Bible… and this goes on until eventually some theme develops. Of course there is a lot of “praise the Lord" and "thank you Jesus” during all of this. God speaks to us in the Bible, but not if we use it superstitiously. Sortilege is a form of divination and divination is condemned by the Church.
