Leviticus 18:24-30
Excerpted from: HalloweenThe situation is the same. God says He's casting these nations out before Israel, and He's warning Israel not to make the same mistake.
This is a judgment from God. He's punishing these people for their wicked practices, and the land itself helps God in getting rid of them.
This is scary, isn't it? But people do these detestable things, which in chapter 18 of Deuteronomy include spiritism, occultism, necromancing—all that type of stuff. The land is defiled. Not just the people are defiled, but the land itself becomes defiled, and it reacts and throws the inhabitants out by means of natural disasters, unproductiveness, famine, disease, war, and things of that nature. The land simply has it up to here, and throws the people out.
God's creation all works together. It's all based on living the righteous way of God. The land can only take so much before God uses it to punish the nation that does these things.
