There is also spiritual immorality and adultery which is going back to the law and works for salvation instead of trusting in Christ's finished work only. Read the context of Romans 7:1-4 ....it is sandwiched in between chapter 6 and the rest of chapter 7...very interesting. There is a lot of immorality happening in the church spiritually and it is against our Lord.
Here is a short 11 minute video on it...

All rebellion is as the sin of witchcraft and this country had a good dose of it since the '60's.
Nearly every thing which is established by God has been attacked heavily since.
Drugs, abortion, skyrocketing divorce, homosexuality, same sex marriage, etc. etc. all of which were done in secret before the '60's.
Gee, I don't know if it was Donovan's "Season of the Witch' or Rosemary's Baby which set things off...hmm maybe it was "Paint it Black" by the Stones. (I'd LOL, but none of it is funny).

An add on from the Discovery Bible...
5331 pharmakeía (from pharmakeuō, "administer drugs") – properly, drug-related sorcery, like in the practice of ancient magical-arts (A. T. Robertson).
1.
5331/pharmakeia ("drug-related enchantments") operates by "the art of mind-games," using hypnotic sorceries and occultic incantations ("formulas") etc. to sway the mind. These tactics were often "enhanced" (practiced with) the use of drugs (Wm. Barclay).
[5331 (pharmakeia) is the root of the English terms, "pharmacy," "pharmaceutical."]
2.
5331/pharmakeia ("magical arts, witchcraft") is "'the practice of drugging'; hence, especially, from the use of mysterious liquids, sorcery, witchcraft, inextricably combined with idolatry" (Souter).
[This "magic" focuses on "the use of certain potions or drugs and the casting of spells" (L & N, 1, 53.100).]
The stock-and-trade of false-teachers includes "religious incantations and enchantments" to manipulate people into following them (swallowing their theology). These "mind-games" characteristically over-promise temporal things from God that are not in fact "guaranteed" (promised) in the Bible – especially distorting the meaning of faith (4102/pístis, see there).
Reflection: The Church must beware of "hyper-faith teachers" and others who "drug people" into adopting illusions – supposedly which can manipulate God to give them what they want by "refusing to doubt." These false teachers twist the meaning of faith – making it the same as human believing to supposedly become the tool to "claim unlimited temporal blessings" at will (so long as the aspiring magic-practioner "does not doubt").

A few months before the explosion we went to Canada for a healing week. They let a psychiater speak there in church and sold his books in their store. Those people kept pushing me to go to a psychiater and get drugs (I was pregnant and irritated, the marriage was going bad). They just kept pushing and it was from God blablabla. Finally I gave in, got prozac, side effect: suicide attempt, boom end of the church and the marriage.
Yeah that was also some witchcraft.

The church is always combating the spiritual darkness.
As an example:
In South Paris, Maine, there is "Holistic Healing Fair", they call it that but it's really loaded with psychics and garbage and they ALWAYS hold this fair on Sunday. So, the church has to compete with a "fair".
But honestly, are any of the situations talked about any different? They all require the same solution.
