"Modern spiritualism and the forms of ancient witchcraft and idol 
worship--all having communion with the dead as their vital principle--are founded upon that first lie by which Satan beguiled Eve in Eden: "Ye shall not surely die: for God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, . . . ye shall be as gods." Genesis 3:4, 5.
Alike based upon falsehood and perpetuating the same, they are alike from the father of lies."
E.G.W.
