Let no one be found among you who sacrifices their son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. –Deuteronomy 18:10-11 (NIV)
When there is a prophet among you, I, the Lord, reveal myself to them in visions, I speak to them in dreams.But this is not true of my servant Moses; he is faithful in all my house.With him I speak face to face, clearly and not in riddles; he sees the form of the Lord. –Numbers 12:6-8 (NIV)

Henry Rack, Reasonable Enthusiast: John Wesley and the Rise of Methodism, pp. 434-435. “Charismatic or simply eccentric Methodist preachers sometimes had the reputation of being wizards, and on occasion they were effective in the role of healers or exorcists as well as agents of spiritual salvation…It has been plausibly argued that one reason for the success of Methodism, especially in areas like Cornwall where folklore and magic were particularly strong, was that Methodism was able to offer a fairly highly-coloured supernatural world of its own as a substitute and counter-attraction for the traditional one…the Methodist supernatural world, officially at least, sanitized and scripturalized what was accepted: dreams, visions and healing were sanctioned; demons were exorcized; but resort to charms and witchcraft were opposed.”
