Pagan Influences
Our modern civilisation is filled amongst heathen too occult influences:
Hindu too Buddhist teachers such equally pagan apply too meditation techniques (yoga)...Ouija boards...horoscopes...psychics too fortunetellers...pagan symbols too statues(1)...
Scripture warns us to avoid such things:
2 Corinthians 6:14-18: Do non locomote yoked together amongst unbelievers. For what create righteousness too wickedness convey inwards common? Or what companionship tin low-cal convey amongst darkness? ...Therefore, “Come out from them too locomote separate, says the Lord. Touch no soiled thing, too I volition have you.” And, “I volition locomote a Father to you, too yous volition locomote my sons too daughters, says the Lord Almighty.”
No create goodness or enjoyment derived from these things is worth damaging our human relationship amongst the Lord.
1 Corinthians 10:23: "I convey the correct to create anything," yous say--but non everything is beneficial…not everything is constructive.
Let's carefully assay out the influences inwards our lives, honey Christians, if for no other argue than to continue a pure focus on our Lord.
