"The Scriptures expressly show that the fallen spirits would be held under restraint for a long time, and that those restraints would gradually be relaxed in the judgment of the great day. (Jude 6; 2 Pet. 2:4.) Thus, it is not surprising to watchers to note that the chains are being gradually loosened, and that these 'wicked spirits' have greater liberties than ever before. 'BE NOT HIGH-MINDED, BUT FEAR.' There is still danger to those who 'don't believe in spirits,' and who regard as superstitious the Bible narratives of how our Lord and the Apostle cast out demons, and how all wizards, witches, mediums and others who proposed to hold communication with the dead were strictly prohibited in Israel. There is more danger to the self-confident, who 'dare investigate anything,' and who boast 'a mind of their own,' than of the humbler ones who say 'let us fear to tamper with what God has forbidden.' The beginning of the trap is a bait to curiosity -- a visit to a 'medium, 'a seance' with friends, at a neighbor's home." R. 3490
