Question / Issue

In last Wednesday's sermon, you spoke about the occult, specifically indian Kachina dolls. Are Kokopelli's the same thing? They are a theme throughout my house (Southwest). Should I remove them? I don't use them as symbols of fertility, just design.

Answer / Solution

Kokopelli is a fertility deity, usually depicted as a humpbacked flute player, who is worshipped by many Native American tribes in the Southwestern United States.
He is also known as a "trickster god". That is quite a resemblance to the god of this world - Satan, who is a deceiver also. Kokopelli has been worshipped since at least the time of the Ancient Pueblo Peoples. The first known images of him appear on Hohokam pottery dated to sometime between AD 750 and AD 850.

Many people in our society today use this false god as decor, especially in the Southwestern United States. It is wise to "clean out" any and all of these sort of things from our homes, as leaving them only keeps the door open for the occult and enemy to have ground, no matter how insignificant it may appear.
