When Yah says not to 'boil a kid in its mother's milk' we are being taught not to partake in a popular tradition. Yes, He is the creator of all things including the goat and the young goat, but it was the pagan practice of cooking this way that we are told not to do.
Pagan defined:
- one who has little or no religion and who delights in sensual pleasures and material goods
- a heathen
- Pagan was used at the end of the Roman Empire to name those who practiced a religion other than Christianity, Judaism, or Islam. Early Christians often used the term to refer to non-Christians who worshiped multiple deities
Deuteronomy 18
When you enter the promise land... you shall not learn to imitate the abhorrent practices of those nations. Let there not be found among you anyone who: sends their children to the fire; or who is an augur (one who foretells events by omens), a soothsayer (someone who makes predictions about what is going to happen in the future), a diviner (a person who uses special powers to predict future events), a sorcerer (a person who practices sorcery; a wizard or warlock), one who casts spells or one who consults with ghosts or familiar spirits, or one who inquires of the dead.
Sorcery:
- the use of magical powers that are obtained through evil spirits
- the use of power gained from the assistance or control of evil spirits especially for divining
- magic
Could Energy Therapy be derived from any of these practices? All Set Apart believers should ask this question and find Yah's answer before letting themselves become a participant. I pray this information I have gathered will help one make the right decision.
From 1 Corinthians 10... all our fathers were under the cloud, and they passed through the sea, and they were all immersed by Moses in the cloud and in the sea. The all ate the same spiritual food and drank the same spiritual drink... from the spiritual rock that attended them and that rock was the Mashiyach. But with a multitude of them, Elohim was not pleased. These things are an example for us so that we won't covet after evil things as they did. Neither should we serve idols as some of them did nor commit sexual sin. Neither let us tempt the Mashiyach as some of them tempted and serpents destroyed them. (Numbers 21:4) Nor should we complain as some of them did and they perished by the destroyer. All these things that befell them were for an example to us and they are written for our instruction on whom the end of the world has come. Flee from idolatry... do not associate with demons... we cannot partake at the table of our Master Y'shua and sit at the table of demons.
From Numbers 20
Moses took the rod as Yah had commanded. Moses and Aaron assembled the congregation in front of the rock and he said to them, "Listen you rebels! shall we get water for you out of this rock?" And Moses raised his hand and struck the rock twice with his rod. Out came copious amounts of water... But Yahweh wasn't happy with this, He had told Moses to 'speak' to the rock, to order it to give its water, not strike it a couple of time ... He said to Moses and Aaron, "Because you did not trust Me enough to affirm My sanctity in the sight of the people, you shall not lead this congregation into the land I have given them.
Moses tried to accomplish this task on his own instead of following the instructions from Yahweh. Are we guilty of taking matters into our own hands regarding health and medical treatments? I'm not talking about using the items mentioned in Scriptures, which are Yah Approved, the oils and clay, hyssop, spices and dietary guidelines, etc. But should we be dabbling in the spiritual realm thinking we have power over the Ruach haKodesh? I think not.
Matthew 13:14And in them prophecy is fulfilled (Isaiah 6:9;10) 'Hearing, and you will not understand what you hear, and seeing you will not know what you see.' For hardened is the heart of this people, and they were hard of hearing and their eyes are blinded (by science?) that they should not see or hear or understand in their heart, and return, and I heal them...
Energy Therapy (quote)In a world where people are constantly grasping for deeper meaning, deeper spirituality, and a higher purpose, energy healing is one more New Age philosophy that presents itself as very desirable to human beings. Born with sin, we all come into the world with the strong belief that we are the center of the universe—that we are in control of our health, our bodies, our lives, our circumstances, and our destinies. Those who have not turned to (Yahweh) for Truth have no choice but to search for it within themselves.The practice of energy healing is not in itself a religion, but it is a pathway to one's own spirituality. It leads us on a personal journey that encourages us to focus on ourselves and how our energy is in sync with the energies of the cosmos, the earth, and all other life. Through this, we can supposedly be taught to heal ourselves by using clairvoyance to “visualize” where the negative energy is in order to determine the cause of the problem, whether it is physical, emotional or spiritual.
The main thread I have found in researching energy therapy are the claims that it works by 'removing obstructions to the flow of life force energy throughout the body'. These obstructions are allegedly caused by negative thoughts, actions, or feelings, which some believe are the fundamental cause of illness. I believe that much to be true - harboring negativity will cause illness - no matter where in the body you think that negativity is stored. The negativity we hang onto can be released when we begin to forgive those who have done us wrong. That is the first step. As we forgive those who have caused us pain, anger, or caused us to regret our actions and carry guilt, so shall the Father forgive us the wrongs we have done. When this connection is made a lot of that negativity is lifted as if the world has been taken off our shoulders. We begin to breathe again, blood flow is improved and a level of better health is evident.
The idea of energy healing is a temptation for us to put our trust in ourselves and our own bodies, which is a form of worship. The temptation dangled by the Adversary in front of Eve was 'to become like divine beings'. First he caused her to Doubt the Instruction of the Creator. This doubt allowed her to desire and eat that forbidden fruit. A Lie opened the door and bye-bye paradise. We can all be tripped up by doubt and deceit if we are not firmly grounded in His Word. For most who participate in energy healing, no recognition is given to the one true Elohim, nor does He receive any praise for healing. They say: "Our Soul is the connection between our physical body and our Spirit, and provides communication between the two. It is our consciousness, and forever remains connected to the Creator, God, or whatever term you like to use.
The soul connects the physical body and our Spirit? providing communication between the two? come on now...
Chi, Kundalini, Prana, the life force, New Age healing, Vital Force, and psychic healing... These all are names for the same thing: occult energy.
*Note on the occult and occult healing: The occult is a set of practices involving reading hidden meanings in ordinary images or in natural sources, the attempt to receive information or aid from disembodied beings, and/or manipulation of unquantifiable forces or powers. The three broad categories are divination, spirit contact, and sorcery. Healing is one of the most common occult activities but these methods are counterfeit to true healing. New Age healing is, in actuality, based on occult healing principles.
The folks at Splankna are mixing and mingling a bit of Scripture with new age philosophy, painting this therapy to look good to Christians, claiming that 'life force' is the 'holy spirit'. Isn't this a device used by Satan? He makes evil look good and good seem like an evil thing, with an end result of turning us away from Yahweh. A simple lie opens the door and then we're kicked out of paradise.
Getting involved in energy healing is spiritually dangerous, to say the least.
Daniel 12:4
"But you, Daniel, keep the words secret, and seal the book until the time of the end. Many will range far and wide and knowledge will increase."
And what knowledge would that be?
2 Peter 2:18
But be you growing in grace and in the knowledge of our Master and Redeemer Y'shua the Mashiyach and of Elohim the Father: who is the glory now and always and to the days of eternity. Amen.
