Day of the Dead

In the movie Coco the grandmother says it’s the one night of the year our ancestors can come visit us.  Biblically that is incorrect.   In 2 Corinthians 5 Paul says that to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. So, once we die we are either in heaven or hell not waiting around to come back to earth and visit those that are still living.

 

Setting up an altar to attempt to have communication with  those that have gone before is forbidden by the Lord.  Witchcraft, psychics, mediums, necromancy,  etc are not of the Lord.  Don’t take my word for it……………study it for yourself.

~~~~> just a few  places to start:

Deut 18:10-12

Leviticus 19:31

Leviticus 20:6

Galatians 5:19 – 5:21

This is important so study it out for yourself. 

 

Day of the Dead

 

In homes, at graves or in the schools of today

not God, but tradition and culture leads way

 

Holiness is out,  necromancy is  in

So deceived — families gather in sin

 

They build altars to commune with ones that are dead

using skulls, favorite drinks  and baked bread

 

Candles are lit and sweet photos of old

are viewed as fun stories are told

 

So innocent it seems, this gathering to commune

with dead loved ones ‘neath sun or the moon

 

But it’s insidious and evil  on so many levels

for they’ll summon not loved ones but devils
