Astrology: What Does The Bible Say?
It is always soundly condemned (Deut. 4:19). In fact it is just another form of idolatry. To worship a wooden statue or rock carving is just as foolish as in fearing the movements of the planets (2 Kings 17:16). 2. Astrology is powerless to predict anything. God even challenges the astrologers to deliver on their predictions or promises (Isaiah 47:13). 3. In the Bible, they are depicted as being absolutely powerless to penetrate the future or to even read the mind of another individual (Daniel 2:27; 5:5-16). Like every other form of idolatry, astrology is condemned because it is just another human attempt to circumvent dependence upon and trust in God as the guide for your life (Matthew 4:4; 22:37; Galatians 2:20). To fear or guide your life by the movements in the heavens is to worship the creation instead of the Creator (Romans 1:25).
