- Here in skeptic land you may encounter teachings concerning
- out of body travel; astral projection. Take note of the means used to
- connect the spiritual body to the physical. Shown below:
-
- >Your astral body is connected to your physical body by what is called the
- >silver cord. Its sort of a thin piece of nearly invisible material that
- >stretches out between your physical body and your astral body. This all is
-
- The power or means to perform this is not clearly stated. However
- techniques such as meditation(TM), channeling, spirit guides, chants, and
- other forms of spiritism are associated with this.
-
- For a soul to travel in the spiritual realm requires power
- from that domain. That silver cord mentioned could be the power; some
- spiritual entity.
-
- Where is this power from? Is it of God? The bible clearly denounces
- spiritism as wickedness. Those advocating occult practices may appear
- psychotic; however denial of the super-natural assumes our understanding
- of the natural domain is sufficient to define the spiritual. In like
- fashion, do not accept any teaching as truth if it happens to work.
-
- My advise to the doubting and believing alike: don't invite
- spirits to your soul in any attempt receive power. Do invite the Holy
- Spirit by receiving Jesus. If you posses such abilities, renounce
- them! What is your soul worth?
