What are Ouija boards? Should a Christian play with Ouija boards?
The Bible has a few things to say about engaging in activities of this nature: Leviticus 19:31 - "Do not turn to mediums or seek out spiritists, for you will be defiled by them. In fact, spirits of the dead seem to get extremely confused when participants are blindfolded, at which point the Ouija board suddenly ceases to work correctly
The false teachers throw away the gospel, blaspheme God, reject the work of the cross, deny the power of the resurrection, trash the Holy Spirit, and slander Paul, the awesome Apostle and bondservant of our Lord Jesus Christ, simply because they want a present tense verb for justifying their own sin while they protect the false doctrines of John Calvin. Gentile believers, who comprised the majority of the church, held to sound doctrine, believed the gospel of grace, and had faith in Jesus' death and resurrection apart from the law (Ten Commandments) and circumcision

Cornelius Nepos: Lives of Eminent Commanders (1886) pp. 305-450
He persisted, nevertheless, in executing his purpose; and in consequence, on the fifth day after he had fixed his resolution, and on the last day of February, in the consulship of Cnaeus Domitius and Caius Sosius, he died.294 His body was carried out of his house on a small couch, as he himself had directed, without any funereal pomp, all the respectable portion of the people attending, 295 and a vast crowd of the populace. He was accordingly bent, with his whole force of thought, on delivering his country, but saw that that object could not be effected without the aid of the king of Persia, and therefore desired that he should be attached to him as a friend; nor did he doubt that he should easily accomplish his wish, if he had but an opportunity for an interview with him; for he knew that his brother Cyrus was secretly preparing war against him, with the aid of the Lacedaemonians, and foresaw that, if he gave him information of this design, he would find great favour at his hands

Witold Pilecki's Auschwitz Report
http://witoldsreport.blogspot.com/I would like to emphasize that we should cherish the memory of not only the innocent victims, but above all of those who had the courage to challenge evil. As early as January, I sent the information about the action with an appeal for support to the highest authorities of Poland: the President and the Speakers of the Sejm and Senate

Tarasso conveys the idea of to disturb mentally or to cause a deep emotional disturbance and thus refers to an unsettled mind, as when Herod heard of the birth of Jesus (Mt 2:3), Zacharias' fear when he saw the angel (Lk 1:12), the terror of the disciples when they witnessed Jesus walking on the water (Mt 14:26), Jesus' reaction to the lack of faith among the people before He raises Lazarus (Jn 11:33), in Jesus' command to not let their hearts be troubled (Jn 14:1) and of disturbing the faith of someone (Gal 5:10). Probably God entirely delivers his martyrs from those physical tortures which to onlookers might seem unbearable.This has been the perpetual testimony of the Armenian refugees
Deuteronomy Devotionals
Lincoln was once asked if he thought God was on his side, to which he replied that it had never occurred to him to ask such a question, but that he was persistently anxious to discover whether he were on the side of God. It is impossible to read all this in view of much modern history without furious thinking! At least, we are driven to the conclusion that armies thus sifted would have a quality that is lacking entirely when they are made up of all sorts and conditions
TWELVE GOD-GIVEN TRUTHS TO UNDERSTAND HIS WORD - L. Ray Smith
Are we to believe that in a few hours Jesus read to them the entire 39 books, 929 chapters, 23,145 verses of the Old Testament, with commentary and explanations? No, of course not. The testimony of Jesus Christ does not change, and Christ Himself does not change, and therefore His dealings with humanity do not change, other than that there is coming a consummation of sin and death

006.092 YUSUFALI: And this is a Book which We have sent down, bringing blessings, and confirming (the revelations) which came before it: that thou mayest warn the mother of cities and all around her. Say: Signs are only with Allah; and what should make you know that when it comes they will not believe? 006.110 YUSUFALI: We (too) shall turn to (confusion) their hearts and their eyes, even as they refused to believe in this in the first instance: We shall leave them in their trespasses, to wander in distraction

If they had only, when they were unjust to themselves, come unto thee and asked Allah's forgiveness, and the Messenger had asked forgiveness for them, they would have found Allah indeed Oft-returning, Most Merciful
Utilitarianism by John Stuart Mill
They either assume the ordinary precepts of morals as of a priori authority, or they lay down as the common groundwork of those maxims, some generality much less obviously authoritative than the maxims themselves, and which has never succeeded in gaining popular acceptance. This remarkable man, whose system of thought will long remain one of the landmarks in the history of philosophical speculation, does, in the treatise in question, lay down a universal first principle as the origin and ground of moral obligation; it is this: "So act, that the rule on which thou actest would admit of being adopted as a law by all rational beings." But when he begins to deduce from this precept any of the actual duties of morality, he fails, almost grotesquely, to show that there would be any contradiction, any logical (not to say physical) impossibility, in the adoption by all rational beings of the most outrageously immoral rules of conduct
And there are, certainly, among the People of the Book, those who believe in Allah, in the revelation to you, and in the revelation to them, bowing in humility to Allah. As to those who deny the Signs of Allah and in defiance of right, slay the prophets, and slay those who teach just dealing with mankind, announce to them a grievous penalty

God, in this passage in Romans, does not address Himself at all to human intellect, but to the consciousness of His saints.178178 1.Much unnecessary and unfruitful questioning as to what is the witness of the Spirit has arisen. The days of doubt and uncertainty were forever passed for him! Verses 38, 39: For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord
Prayer to God in Christianity and Islam: It is Useless and Satanic!
Although according to Sura 3 (Aal-e-Imran - The Family of Imran)191 who remember God, standing and sitting and on their sides, and reflect upon the creation of the heavens and the earth: 'Our Lord, Thou hast not created this for vanity. Shouldn't they, therefore, be unusually fit, compared with the rest of us, who are prayed for only by our nearest and dearest? Galton looked into it, and found no statistical difference

Ephesians 6:5-8 Slaves, be obedient to those who are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in the sincerity of your heart, as to Christ; not by way of eye service, as men-pleasers, but as slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart
