6 “‘I will set my face against anyone who turns to mediums and spiritists to prostitute themselves by following them, and I will cut them off from their people.
7 “‘Consecrate yourselves and be holy, because I am the Lord your God. 8 Keep my decrees and follow them. I am the Lord, who makes you holy. Leviticus 20: 6&7 NIV
There are even those churches today that prefer a "fresh word" over the Word of God. How different do you really believe that to be, than the seeking out of mediums? There were always, in every day, far more false prophets and teachers, and men still seek them to have their ears tickled. The word faith may be thrown around in such circles, but it looks far more like the crystal balls and fortune telling that God has condemned.
20 I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. Galatians 2:20
"Consecrate yourselves". Change your purpose, designate yourself as belonging to God, sacred and individual.
So then, my beloved, just as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your salvation with fear and trembling; 13 for it is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure.…Philipians 2:12
