This essay explains how Christianity and Wicca differ on God, power, revelation, salvation, ethics, and hope. It offers a gracious, Scripture-rooted response that invites trust in Christ and equips the church to engage neighbors with clarity and love.
Predestination in Romans 9 shows God’s freedom to show mercy and his faithfulness to promise. The result is humility, assurance, and courage for mission.
Genesis 3:19 frames life east of Eden: hard work, certain death, and our return to dust. The gospel does not deny that sentence; it answers it in the risen Christ, who will raise the dust in glory.
