[1263] _____________________________________________ Schedule for Todays Bible Reading: Acts 4-6 _____________________________________________ Text for Monday, November 17, 2014 I cannot put up with the use of uncanny power.—Isa. 1:13. Often called spiritualism, the practice of spiritism played a notable role in 19th-century thinking. Zion’s Watch Tower of May 1885 therefore said: “The belief that the dead are alive in another sphere or condition of being is not new. It was part of the religion of the ancients, and was the very root of all mythology.” The article added that the unscriptural idea of the dead communicating with the living “has given cover and force to the deceptions practised by ‘demons’ under the guise of dis-embodied spirits of men. They have eagerly availed themselves of this mode of concealing their identity, and have thus perpetuated their sway over the minds and lives of many.” The early booklet What Say the Scriptures About Spiritism? gave similar warnings, as have our more recent publications. w13 2/15 2:11 _____________________________________________ Post Reference: Watchtower Online Library [wol.jw.org/en/wol/h/r1/lp-e] We encourage everyone to explore our official website at [jw.org/]
