Deliverance Ministers: Witchcraft Exists in the Prophetic and the Apostolic Too
Don’t think there’s witchcraft in the church today? Then you might want to reconsider that position, say Pastors Mike Signorelli, Isaiah Saldivar and Alexander Pagani.

Before we delve into Piper’s full response, let’s explore Paul’s words in 1 Timothy 4:1 (ESV). He writes: “Now the Spirit expressly says that, in later times, some will depart from the faith by devoting themselves to deceitful spirits and teachings of demons.”
