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

HEALING TOUCH



She got the "force"! No, this is not Star Wars. This is Sr Sheila, a Medical Mission Sister at the 'Center for Human Integration' and she is practicing what is known as Healing Touch. Healing Touch or TT is based on the belief that health and healing is tied to invisible energy forces.

Naturally magic and divination are forbidden by the Bible and the Catechism; magical practices being the work of Satan and all. Come to think of it so is lying. Of course Healing Touch fits both bills. There can be two possibilities.

A. Healing Touch is occult divination.

Derived from Pagan (Eastern) religious beliefs and disguised under the laying-on of hands, the core concept of Healing Touch is the manipulation of "life energy". It could be disguised as Craniosacral Therapy, Energy Balancing, Reiki, Touch Therapy, Bodywork, Deep Massage, Footwork Reflexology, Neuromuscular Therapy, Positional Therapy, Shiatsu Therapy, Stone Therapy, Thai Massage, Acupuncture, or any other "energy therapy" – as long as the "treatment" is based on energy field manipulation – it is one and the same. Practitioners may hold their hands a short distance from the patient or with some hands on method "connect the energy fields" in the body. Sometimes they call on Jesus, but God is not an energy force and God does not get involved in "rebalancing energy fields".

B.
Healing touch is a hoax.

Ten years old Emily Rosa suspected TT was pseudoscience and proved that not one of 21 Therapeutic Touch practitioners could detect an energy field.



Some good Catholic sisters go all the way and kneed! But don't let them fool you! This is TT and not massage therapy!

The Truth About Healing Touch

What is Healing Touch?

“It is a newer version of a dangerous and spiritually invasive system of energy manipulation which may be legitimately described as magic. How is it a magical art? Using a distortion of eastern mysticism or occult techniques, New Age healers attempt to manipulate matter through an act of the will. New Age "energy work", as it is called, has many forms of this magic. In the case of HTI, this magical art has now been modified and disguised for Christian ministries, schools and hospitals. Many hybrid forms of "energy channeling" have grown from the earlier versions of such techniques as yoga, the "healing science" of Barbara Brennan and Reiki. Therapeutic Touch and its offshoot, Healing Touch, are just two of these variations. Real healing is never a technique. Real healers never take mini-courses or charge money. Real healers do not use "energy". If you know a hospital, school nurse or member of a parish pastoral team promulgating these techniques, please pass this article on to their bishop. For more information, check this article written by a medical doctor on medical studies disproving the validity of HTI at the following web page": Quackwatch

About Me

My photo
Canada
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.
