Conclusion
God has made it clear that, at death, He takes
back His power of life or spirit from the man/animal,
and that man/animal immediately ceases to exist, then
it slowly turns to dust on the earth.

Spiritism and Necromancy


      

Since the dead are in the grave, in a state of


unconscious sleep, awaiting the resurrection which will
take place at the end of the world when Jesus Christ
returns from heaven with all His holy angels, how do
we explain the apparent communication with the dead
that is common in many religious movements of the
past and present?

Well, this world is filled with unseen beings


called angels: holy angels and fallen angels. The fallen
angels work for their leader Satan, also a fallen angel,
but the holy angels work for their beloved Commander
Jesus Christ, the divine Son of God. These two great
forces are in constant battle for the control of men’s
minds. The weapon they use is influence, for they are
not to interfere with the God-given right of man to
choose whom he will obey.
