And the birthday cake with a cake to celebrate another year of life, is related to an ancient belief of the Greek goddess Artemis, this goddess every time she celebrated her birthday with a cake in the shape of a moon and a lit candle.

One of the most extended versions transports us to the Germany of the eighteenth century. At that time, a celebration called 'Kinderfest' was common: two candles were placed on the candy of the child being honored, one to represent the light of his life and another one that symbolized the coming years. The flames should be lit all day and were replaced when they were consumed. At the end of the day they were extinguished of a blow. It was believed that the smoke that the candles sent off when they were extinguished helped to transfer to God the desire that we all have the right to ask for our birthday.

In the most remote towns as well as in the big cities, people often resort to consult with sorcerers, shamans, healers, priests, spiritualists to try to get a response they want or connect with their relatives who already departed from this earthly plane; consult to seek help for an illness, face problems or simply find solutions and make important decisions for them.

They are condemned by the Scriptures. Idolatry is also forbidden, and no one who practices it will enter the Kingdom of God (Revelation 21:27)

Others are more fearful, not all fall into that same bag. to leave their lives in the hands of fortune-tellers, and religion and belief enter to compete. And where do they leave God, I wonder?

Others say that the King of Kings does not like to compete his kingdom, he is a jealous God. you believe that these are ways of approaching God, these issues are complex because of the diversity of culture, beliefs, and thoughts. They educate us to investigate what is unknown to us.

"What does the Bible say about superstitions?"

Superstition is based on ignorant faith in an object that has magical powers. Another word for superstition is "idolatry." The Bible does not support the idea of ​​things happening by chance; nothing is done outside the sovereign control of God. He causes or allows everything in accordance with his divine plan (Acts 4:28, Ephesians 1:10).

In Egypt began the belief that the black cat was the reincarnation of gods thing that the Catholic Church did not support affirming at the time that it was the reincarnation of the devil, and they start to burn these animals alive. The black cats were marked as devils by the darkness of the night.

God is the only true one who gives eternal life. "Beware that no one captivates you with the vain and deceitful philosophy that follows human traditions, that which accords with the principles of this world and not according to Christ." All the fullness of the divinity dwells in bodily form in Christ; he, who is the head of all power and authority, you have received that fulness "(Colossians 2: 8-10).
