Some people wear charms, bracelets, necklaces, or other objects believing they protect them from evil spirits, accidents, curses, or misfortune. Some Christians wonder whether these practices agree with their faith in Jesus Christ.
Discussion Questions
Should Christians depend on charms for spiritual protection? Does the Bible teach believers to trust in objects or in God? How should Christians respond when family traditions encourage wearing protective charms?
Key Scriptures (KJV)
Psalm 121:2: “My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth.”
Acts 19:19 — People who practised magical arts publicly turned away from those practices after believing the gospel.
2 Corinthians 5:7: “(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)”
Let us examine this subject through Scripture and encourage one another to place our confidence in God rather than objects believed to possess spiritual power.
