2 Thessalonians 2:9
The coming of the lawless one is according to the working of Satan, with all power, signs, and lying wonders,

Acts 8:9-13; Exodus 7:11-25, 8:1-25; Leviticus 19:31; Deuteronomy 18:10-15; Isaiah 47:12-15; Acts 13:6-11, 19:19

9 But there was a certain man called Simon, who previously practiced sorcery in the city and astonished the people of Samaria, claiming that he was someone great,
10 to whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, �This man is the great power of God.�
11 And they heeded him because he had astonished them with his sorceries for a long time.
12 But when they believed Philip as he preached the things concerning the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, both men and women were baptized.
13 Then Simon himself also believed; and when he was baptized he continued with Philip, and was amazed, seeing the miracles and signs which were done.

Folks, according to the Holy Bible, human beings can harness supernatural power. However, this power is either from the Spirit of God or from the devil. Ask Chriss Angel does he trust Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior. Ask Chriss Angel if he believes that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh. Folks Chriss Angel's power is not of God. I believe it is of the devil. However, Chriss Angel's power is real, but it is demonic in nature. These are not tricks or an illusion, what you saw with your eyes is truly what happened. However, Chriss Angel and David Blaine are not typical magicians in the sense that you think that they are. Chriss Angel and David Blaine are sorcerers (male versions of witches). I know that referring to someone as a sorcerer or witch is not politically correct, but the shoe fits, and I call it how it is. There is no scientific explanation for what Chriss Angel and David Blaine do--because witchcraft is not science--but there is definitely a supernatural explanation. What Chriss Angel and David Blaine do is not mind-over-matter, mentalism, telekinesis, or anything pertaining to the mind. Their power is of spiritual origin. The source of their power, and yes it is real power, is demonic. Don't be deceived by the mindfreak designation (I meant to say pretense). Mindfreak is just a pretense to downplay or mitigate what is truly taking place. If you knew the true source of their power you would want nothing to do with Chriss Angel or David Blaine. If Chriss Angel and David Blaine called their practice by its true name�witchcraft--they know the public would strongly object. So to make their practice (seem) innocuous and peoplefriendly they dubbed it magic, illusion, or trick. This way they can still perform sorcery (witchcraft) right in front of you, astonish you, and get away with it scot-free. Simon, was a man who, like Chriss Angel and David Blaine, practiced sorcery, but he did it thousands of years before Chriss Angel and David Blaine. Get yourself a King James Bible, go to the Table of Contents and look up Acts. It reads Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts. Locate chapter 8, verses 9-11. The word, magic arts, is synonymous with sorcery. There it is in black and white. Lastly, get yourself a Bible dictionary and look up the word magic arts or sorcery. These miracles are hardly illusion or trick but the work of sorcery, black magic, or witchcraft. Mindfreak is a diversion, or distraction to misdirect your common sense from what is actually occurring before your very eyes. It is unreal that Chriss Angel can do all of these amazing, otherwordly things right before your eyes and still, still you do not believe what just happened. Your mind is so deceived that you cannot even make an intelligent deduction about what you've just seen. Magicians (ordinary, sleight of hand performers) or people in general, do not walk up walls, walk on water, levitate several feet off of the ground, break glass objects with their mind, make tarantulas appear from nowhere (literally), teleport from one place to another, walk through glass, put his arm through someone�s body so that his arm appears from the person's chest, bite a quarter clean off, then spit the other half back on the other half, and so on. You and others are so taken, deceived, and blind to this reality that it can happen right in front of your eyes and yet you still disbelieve. Incredible. According to the Bible there was a man who practiced sorcery. This man was doing sorcery or witchcraft before Chriss Angel and before David Blaine. This man astonished people just like Chriss Angel and David Blaine except it is called by its true name: sorcery, not illusion or trick. Power is a real thing that can be harnessed by people, ask any ex-sorcerer, witch, or satanist. These people don't deny the existence of power, they know it exists. Get yourself a Bible dictionary and look up the word sorcery in this context you will be amazed. Sorcery is real, and it is supernatural power imparted to people for a purpose and probably with strings attached. Chriss Angel has walked up walls, levitated, passed through solid objects, walked on water, bent himself and others in 90 degree angles with no support, caused objects to levitate at will, transported himself from one place to another, hit by a car, eaten animals only to have them reappear somewhere else, and much more miracles that defy human reasoning. In short, Chriss Angel has perfomed miracles. He is not an ordinary magician who does tricks through sleight of hand. Chriss Angel is not performing tricks at all. A trick or illusion is just that. But a miracle is more than that, it is real power at work doing what to the ordinary person is not possible or normal place. There is a night and day difference between magic (sleight of hand) and bona fide sorcery or witchcraft. Folks don't be deceived by the guise (mindfreak), this is real, supernatural power; power that is not of this world I assure you. Read the above references about a man called Simon, it can be found in the Bible.
