The Bible speaks of magicians in several places. They were present in ancient Egypt and Babylon. In the New Testament, magicians were also evident (Simon, the magician, the Magi who visited Jesus after His birth). A careful study of the Bible reveals that magicians typify unsaved, prideful, unrighteous leaders who perform amazing acts by secret tricks. These secret tricks include false prophecy, signs and wonders, and great ‘miraculous’ achievements. They claim to be sent by God and can often gain a large amount of followers.
