“They have pulled down deep heaven on their heads.” — C.S. Lewis, That Hideous Strength (The Space Trilogy, #3)
When you mess with the spirit world, you often get more than you bargained for... especially if you are a materialist.
Ephesians 6:12
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Those who play with demons end up being played by them.
2 Corinthians 11:14
And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.
When you try to tap into supernatural powers, you end up powerless and unnatural. When you strike a deal with the world above your head, you end up getting yourself in over your head. The only solution at that point is to be saved by Someone outside your situation, Someone who is over what is over your head.
Colossians 2:15
And having spoiled principalities and powers, He made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
Christ mocked the minions of Satan in broad daylight as He hung on the Cross. They drove the nails into their own coffins as they drove them into His hands. They sealed their fate when they tried to seal His tomb.
They called deep heaven down upon themselves and invited the vengeance of God to come down for a visit.
