Camping at one of history’s most famous places, Gettysburg PA, I was delighted to visit the National Cemetery and see the spot that President Abraham Lincoln delivered the Gettysburg Address. I also enjoyed walking the streets of Gettysburg and visiting the unique little shops. It was there that I noticed how many places were offering “Ghost Walks”.
After asking Sister Pat, I found out that a “Ghost Walk” was where you paid someone to walk you around town and point out all places supposedly ghosts have appeared. On some of these walks people actually believe they see a ghost! I may be young and naïve but even a bear knows better. What troubles me is how people can actually believe they see a ghost.
After questioning Pastor Jim about this, he explained it like this: People want to see a ghost so they see a ghost. It’s an old mind trick that magicians, fortune-tellers and sorcerers have used for years to trick people out of their money. Pastor Jim said, “Such stuff can be dangerous since it boarders on edge of area being demonic and allows the ‘spirits of darkness’ a foothold into our minds. That’s the reason God instructed Israel to avoid such things. I don’t think we’ll be going on any ‘Ghost Walks’ Bear.”
Later that day, we stood on fields where as many as 10,000 soldiers had died in battle. It was a little eerie and extremely sad. I could see why it would be so easy for people to dream up ghost stories and maybe a ghost or two.
Bear is going to walk in truth and beware of “Ghost Walks” and anything that drives the imagination to demonic activity! And that is the Bear Truth. Share
