An Astrology Discussion

forbidden in scripture. A man should consult his God, not wizards that peep or signs in the sky. You either believe that, or you don't.

In Jeremiah 10:2 we read, "Do not learn the ways of the nations or be terrified by signs in the sky, though the nations are terrified by them." The prophet goes on to equate astrology with idolatry and describes the vain way in which the heathen seek to please and follow their astrological gods.

​

The clearest command against astrology is found in Deuteronomy 18:9 as the children of Israel were about to enter the Promised Land, God issued a sever warning against the practices of the heathen in that territory. One such warning was against any Israelites becoming an "observer of times," which is an Astrologer. This practice, God declares, is "an abomination unto the LORD".

​

Jesus said in Matthew 6:25 that we should "take no thought" for what might happen in the future. He declared that the necessities of life would be provided by our heavenly Father if we seek him first. Man does not need to know what lies ahead if he faces tomorrow with the help of God. The Christian may not know the future, but he does know the One who holds the future in his hands.

​

The guesswork predictions of astrology should hold no interest for believers who follow "a more sure word of prophecy." (2 Peter 1:21)
