    who is Balaam in the old testament?
  • GiGi - In Reply - 2 years ago
    Hello Temelt 14

    Balaam was a non-Israelite diviner (sorcerer) who was asked by the King of his people to curse the Israelites do that they could be conquered. But God made it so that Balaam spoke blessings upon Israelites rather than evil curses. Balaam, though he spoke blessings instead of curses upon God's people, was still an evil occultic person who was powerful (through the devil) in bringing evil upon others. The king obviously esteemed Balaam to be powerful to weaken his enemies through the curses Balaam could speak over enemies. But his power came from the evil one, not God. His practices were an abomination to God and totally prohibited for any one devoted to God to participate in.

    Tremelt14. The worship of Balaam or Baal or bel was basically devil

    Or Satan worship I.E. blood sacrifice of child sacrifices or worship of

    Immorral sex practices or bestiality or idol worship or sun worship

    All which started as far back as Nimrods kingdom and Babylon.
