Question: My 18-year-old son is hooked on computer games that have magic spells in them. I'm concerned, but what can I do?
Answer: Once they are 18, it is tough. Nevertheless, as a mother, sit down with your son and say, 'We are Christians and love Jesus. This kind of conduct is hurtful to you and damaging. There are demons.' You need to explain to him the reality of demonic possession. You begin with one of those games and it draws you in. Remember the stuff that happened out there at that tragedy in that high school near Denver when those boys had played a computer game and acted it out to their classmates? These things are dangerous. You need to sit down and talk to him and say, 'I love you and this is the way it is.'
Bring the biblical verses that show him how these things are wrong. You can find a number of instances. Get a concordance and look up 'spirits' and 'demons' and look up the 'devil,' 'Lucifer,' and 'Satan' and show that they are not just fun and games. You need to show him the consequences and he will listen. And do a lot of praying that the spells he may be under may be broken, because it is possible for someone to get transfixed like they do with Dungeons & Dragons. They play those roles so much and it takes them over.
*because playing video games and dungeons and dragons with their spells and what not gets you possessed, or makes you want to "act it out" on your peers. it's a fact, it came out of Pat Robertson's Mouth*
Tomorrow on the news you're going to see a 17 year old kid, who lives in his basement and plays d&d on the news because he killed someone with a level five death spell, that had a more adverse affect because of what the d-20 landed on.
Why is this man on the air? I mean with responses like that, no wonder he is always made fun of by Jon Stewart (what a clever clever man)
on a sidenote: to play games with spells, you have to be under a spell. so don't get put under any spells, Pat Robertson says so.
