With reference to Rev 18:23
I think the interpretation of Sorcery to Pharmacy is misapplied to this verse. Its not Vaccinations that deceive the people its, necromancy, seductions of idolatry.

What does sorcery mean in the Bible?
1 : the use of power gained from the assistance or control of evil spirits especially for divining : necromancy. 2 : magic sense 2a.

Pharmakeia
Strong’s G5331 in the following manner:
I. the use or the administering of drugs
II. poisoning
III. sorcery, magical arts, often found in connection with idolatry and fostered by it
IV. metaph. the deceptions and seductions of idolatry

Thayer’s Greek Lexicon
STRONGS NT 5331:
c. sorcery, magical arts, often found in connection with idolatry and fostered by it: Galatians 5:20 (where see Lightfoot) (Wis. 12:4 Wis. 18:13; for כְּשָׁפִים, Isaiah 47:9; for לָטִים, Exodus 7:22; Exodus 8:18; for לְהָטִים, Exodus 7:11); tropically, of the deceptions and seductions of idolatry, Revelation 18:23.

Absolutely agree with you….

The answer is no, but it does make a mention to medicine & drugs.

In Revelation 18:23 we read,

“And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of
the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy
merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all

nations deceived.”

The word, “sorceries”, means Pharmakeia, pronounced, (far-mak-i-ah) in
Greek, which means the use of medicine, drugs or spells. Greek was the
language the New Testament was originally written in.

Written more than 1900 years ago the Bible tells us that at the end of time
there will be deceptions that will involve medicine & drugs and those who
push the medicine & drugs will be wealthy men and all the nations of the

earth will be deceived by it.

Now I’m no scholar but it doesn’t take too much intelligence to make a link
between this Bible verse and the medicine & drugs that are being pushed
today, especially a particular vaccine that is being forcefully pushed on

society.

Vaccines have their origin with Hinduism,

The ingredients are obominations, don’t see God’s Right hand in them at all,

(Rather that hand that touched Job & made him ill)

The GC having an pro stance on vaccines is disgusting, many are harmed by their use and death was the result,

The human race doesn’t need such medicines and would be better off if they didn’t exist at all,

Amongst the vile ingredients are a host of known carinogens, a couple I know lost their baby to brain cancer, they trusted the system in place, were told their genes were the problem…

(not an isolated story it’s common place today)

Brandy Vaughan whistle blower who had worked for a pharmaceutical company and was most likely murdered,

Warned that when the Drs blame your genes, it’s code for vaccine damage,

Every vaccine causes brain swelling in children,

Vaccine companies ran a study at Yale in hopes of demonizing those opposed to vaccines,

It backfired for them & the study was quickly shut down when it gave the results they didn’t wish for:

It just shows me that we SDA’s are on our own in all matters and church and state issues!!!

Very well stated. It’s all coming to pass, sooner rather than later.
