Q: How did Pharaoh know to use his magicians and dark arts when Moses was coming to meet with him? Moses was basically dealing with “hostage“ negotiations to let the Israelites go free— seems like it would be a matter of negotiating terms rather than conjuring up the dark arts?

Since the Old Testament is a foreshadow of things now, do you think that wicked power in high places is being used today? In a massive, behind the scenes way?

Summary

In this conversation, Dr. E and Hanna address questions about the use of dark arts in biblical times, particularly in relation to Pharaoh and Moses. They explore the nature of evil in today's world, emphasizing the importance of standing firm in faith and focusing on the personal work of Christ rather than being distracted by demonic influences. The discussion also highlights the role of prayer in spiritual warfare and critiques literary works that delve into the nature of evil, advocating for a focus on biblical truths instead.

Takeaways

Pharaoh’s magicians show that spiritual deception has always been a tool of the enemy.
The true battle was about who is God, not about political negotiations.
Evil influence still exists behind power structures today.
Christians are called to stand firm, not obsess over spiritual warfare.
Scripture gives us enough — we don’t need to over-study the demonic realm.
Prayer is our main response to unseen battles, not fascination or fear.
