I believe that there is a very serious, faulty, widespread, contemporary skepticism among believers today that holds that authentic occult activity is rare or hardly even exists.1 The only way to know that is true would be to have supernatural abilities to examine all occult activities around the whole world and somehow know that there isn’t any real demonic activity going on.
No human being has such ability. Holding such a viewpoint (that authentic occult activity is rare or hardly even exists) is therefore a totally unwarranted notion that has no merit.
Any individual person’s own life experience is not any legitimate basis to establish the validity of such a view. The life experiences of everybody that a person knows or has ever known are not a legitimate basis to establish the validity of such a view.
Only divine revelation could establish the validity of such a view. Tellingly, the Bible never teaches that the occult is mostly fake, sham, charlatans, etc.
There is no legitimate basis to hold that authentic occult activity is rare or hardly even exists.
