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

THAI CHI



Thai Chi has been described as poetry in motion for its slow, graceful, almost dance-like actions. The martial arts based choreography includes circular motions, subtle weight shifting, focused breathing to empty the mind, and soft stretches that engage the body with minimal exertion. As long as you don’t dwell on the occult part, Thai Chi is a wholesome exercise for the old bones – right?

Wrong!

Thai Chi is not just body training. Thai Chi is mind AND body training (and in that order) with ties to the occult; with roots in Taoism, with Hindu or Buddhist rituals; with guided imagery; with focused breathing; with nature-infused visualizations; with harmonizing the mind, body and spirit. All these are aspects of Eastern religions and in direct conflict with Christianity.

Where can exercise end and ‘fostering the flow of chi’ begin? Thai Chi experts cannot just focus on physical exercise, because that would not be Thai Chi. At some point all Thai Chi experts dwell into the religious component of Thai Chi. Oh, there might be several sessions without anything out of the ordinary. And then one day you are in touch with your spirit guide.

About Me

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.
