No, Christianity and Wicca do not mix. Wicca is a religion and completely different from the beliefs of Christianity.
However, Witchcraft is simply a magical practice and one can be of any religion and practice Witchcraft. At least that is true if one is not a believer in the infallibility of Biblical beliefs.
technically if your both christian and wicca your agnostic theist (those who beleve what they want in their theorys )
me personnally i beleve jesus came to die for us all and to get rid of sin with his blood therefor if you beleve in him you will go to heaven i also beleve in that it harm none do as ye will being dont do something harmful to anyone or nature because God made it beutiful and look were its heading .....
Christian Wiccans are those who still practice Christianity the old way, but add the beauty and natural path of Wicca. Most of us here have melded the two forms into a lovely, cohesive daily practice that enriches our lives and the lives of others. Many of us are seers, healers, and teachers of our ways.as they said this i believe this is legit kind of thinking
We realize that fanitical Christians have a bad reputation for putting down other religions, but you will not find that here. This coven respects each individuals personal choice. This Coven is a home and our membership is our family.
NO harmful or dark spells and/or rituals will be taught in this coven. Only positive Magick that follows the rule of three and the peaceful premis of the Holy Bible. Please remember, The Holy Bible does not specifically prohibit the white work we practice here. Those who say that it does are misled. The wording that intimates such was a DELIBERATE ''translation'' that occurred back in the 1600's.
We will share our learning's with you, as our goal is to teach as many as we can about being a Christian Wiccan. We strive to ensure that all coven members grow while in this Coven by offering educational classes, informational forum threads and weekly Q & A chat sessions.
this is mostly what they said and i believe them
whos to say that putting down all religions is a sin with in it's self
Hello! I attended a Christian convent school (my mother sent me there) a while back.
I have lots of respect for Christianity in general, but not much for certain types of Christians. Religious intolerance of Christians lives on to this day. My old Bible teacher would speak against gays, witchcraft practitioners, and any other violators of the Bible.
Exodus 22:18 is an iffy verse, it can be interperated lots of ways. I suggest reading Leviticus 22:18 as it speaks more in depth about gods view on religion.
I believe Jesus did exist, I believe he had powers. I will not go as far to say, however, that Jesus was a witch as many pagans believe. I believe that there is some truth to the Bible, but I do not believe it to be the ultimate truth.
My mother thought I was possessed by demons because I practiced wicca at the time, and she tried to make me have an exorcism. People at my pentecostal church called me a devil worshipper.
The Christian religion, to some people is helpful. Tolerant Christians who use the religion to better themselves are delightful people. However, its all in the personal interperation of the Bible (and most Christians have never even read the Bible, they just listen to their preacher.) However hateful Christians full of spite are not Christian at all, because what happened to harming none? That is a belief that Christians and wiccans share alike.
It is important to remember there is a huge difference between the old and new tesitment, and with it the Christian God went from being a ruthless destroyer to a merciful father. But that in itself is a contradiction, because God claims to be unchanging.
Nevertheless, it is important (even if you're not wiccan) to not let hate corrupt your heart. And unless a Christian personally insults you or persecutes you due to your religious beliefs, you have no reason to speak out against them. That is what "coexist" means, and if we did not coexist, the world would erupted into chaos.
I am an Eclectic Wiccan who happens to believe in Jesus. A key thing to remember is that the Bible has been written by humans. It's bound to be flawed, so it's not really if you should choose to believe parts of the Bible, but how you should choose them. I tend to use the Wiccan Rede for this:An ye harm none so what ye will. Other than that I believe all Deities are One, so I can call upon any name of the Deity I choose and don't have to worry..... I can't say it's an easy path to walk but I love it. To me God is in nature, He and She is in everything..... So I suppose I would be termed as a 'Jesus Wiccan' rather than a 'Christian Wiccan' if I had the choice. I am Wiccan, I just choose a different name for the Divine than most but I recgonize all names and faces as God/dess. I hope this helps, I do understand it's a bit confusing for many.
Blessed Be.
i feel that being a gypsy wiccan is harder i think i should be a christian wiccan just to heal people and protect people from harm if i were a mastery i'd say dueling against spirits would be the same as cleansing an area of demons i'm more inclined to doing that
