Galatians 3:1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
Bewitched – To influence or affect especially injuriously by witchcraft. Paul implies that someone or something has led the Galatians away from a faith born in the Spirit and instead back into a faith “perfected by the flesh”.
Galatians 5:19-21 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness, Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies, envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
In ancient Greek, pharmakeia = the use of drugs, potions, spells, and/or poisoning, witchcraft, magical potions. Pharmakeia (sorcery) is a form of the Greek root from which we get our English words pharmacy, pharmacist, and pharmaceutical. Pharmakeia (sorcery) fundamentally has to do with drugs or medicine.
Yes, there is witchcraft practiced in the word today. But DRUGS are more rampant, destroying far too many young lives.
Most people know that witchcraft and all associated with it are Evil, Satanic and Not of God.
But Drugs, that’s a different matter. Very few realize Satan is behind them.
