for I have found your deeds incomplete in the sight of My God.

For from within the hearts of men come evil thoughts, sexual immorality, theft, murder, adultery, greed, wickedness, deceit, debauchery, envy, slander, arrogance, and foolishness. All these evils come from within, and these are what defile a man.” Mark 7:20-23 (BSB)

If one’s gift is prophecy, let him use it in proportion to his faith; if it is serving, let him serve; if it is teaching, let him teach. Romans 12:6-7 (BSB)
"All theologians and philosophers agree that the heavenly bodies are guided and directed by certain spiritual mediums. But those spirits are superior to our minds and souls, just as the heavenly bodies are superior to other bodies, and therefore they can influence both the mind and the body of a man, so that he is persuaded and directed to perform some human act." - The Malleus Malleficarum of Heinrich Kramer and James Sprenger, Part I.
