charismatic heresy

UNMASKING THE CHARISMATIC HERESY "For the time will come when people will not tolerate sound doctrine but, following their own desires and insatiable curiosity, will accumulate teachers and will stop listening to the truth and will be diverted to myths" 2 Timothy 4:3-4 - "False messiahs and false prophets will arise and will perform signs and wonders in order to mislead, if that were possible, the elect" Mark 13: 22 - "The smoke of Satan has entered the Church" Pope Paul VI

ACUPUNCTURE




Acupuncture claims to restore the balance of energy flow between the body and the universe. Except energy flow does not exist in the human body, so the supposed relationship of energy flow between the body and the universe is also invented. The technique of acupuncture (inserting needles into the body at key points) is used to "unblock and redirect energy flow". It is interesting that many of the needles are inserted in places with no nerve endings. Yet people will insist acupuncture relieves them from pain. But hey so does aspirin. It is truly remarkable how an odd procedure can survive for 3000 years and spread throughout the world without a single scientific study. Can acupuncture be just another harmless pseudoscientific hocus-pocus? It may be that, but then again it is worth remembering that acupuncture is the product of a philosophy that is perfectly inconsistent with Christianity.

Some people say acupuncture does not need to involve the occult. True enough, acupuncture need not involve the occult, but your acupuncturist might! How can you be sure what your acupuncturist is into? Is acupuncture not the practice of Taoism? Taoism is based on the interaction of two forces, yin and yang, influencing our destinies. Your acupuncturist may call himself a ‘Christian Acupuncturist’, but the two words cancel out each other. Christian means follower of Christ. There is no place for God in Taoism. Acupuncture may seem harmless even beneficial, but in fact it can be a doorway to the occult.

About Me

I am a recovering charismatic and a Catholic Orthodox; observing orthopraxis to the best of my ability. I acknowledge what the Church REALLY DOES TEACH; opposed to what some people erroneously say the Church teaches. “Catholic Orthodoxy” is proposed "to conform to the Catholic faith as taught by the Magisterium of the Church. So an "orthodox" person is one who is FAITHFUL to the teachings of the Church, whereas a "heterodox" person is somebody who rejects ANY Catholic dogma. Orthopraxis means "Performing the correct actions". Catholic Orthodoxy is defined by the Catechism: it tells us what we have to TO BELIEVE. Catholic Orthopraxis is denoted by the Code of Canon Law: it spells out what we have TO DO. Because “Truth is not determined by a majority vote" -- Pope Benedict XVI.
