The Viewpoint Of The Church On Christian Psychic Reading

By Annabelle Holman


Psychic reading basically refers to the attempts made to try and acquire some information by exercising amplified perceptive abilities, or natural extensions in the human senses of sound, touch, instinct, sight and taste. They consist of clairsentience (feeling), clairaudience (hearing), clairvoyance (vision) and claircognisance (factual knowing) and all the statements that are made during the attempt to exercise these abilities. Does Christian psychic reading exist? Does the bible concur with these abilities?

Astrology is the most widely known form of these kinds of reading. It is a type of foretelling based on the alignment of the sun, the fixed stars and the moon. It has been existent for thousands of years even before the scientific methods used in astral observation came into existence. Aura is the practice of interpreting and observing the field of incandescent and subtle radiation that surrounds an individual or an item. Other practices include lithomancy, numerology, rune reading, tarot reading and pschometry

The church has always stood firm against such practices and any Christian who has tried to practice it has been condemned. Anything that proves to be paranormal it has been perceived to be detrimental to the human body by Christians. But despite all these opposition, Christian readers have always claimed to have only one of becausemic information that they employ in their practice and that comes from the Lord and also claim to be using the highest knowledge in the most pure form.

There different types of these readers. There are those that see the Gnoist readers as tainted with possession of negative energies. Another group claims that all the other Psychics are Gods children and Jesus his son does not block out the divine dimensionality of God creation. But despite all these, the bible has talked against these abilities and the house of the lord has also condemned highly the practices of soothsayers.

God does warn his creation from seeking answers from necromancers and individuals who practice sorcery in Leviticus since it makes them unclean and unholy. The book further counsels any individuals practicing necromancy since they are to be stoned and after their death their blood will be on their hands. In the book of Leviticus, the Lord separates himself from false prophets since they talk with a deceitful tongues and a divination that is worthless and lies from their minds.

The book of Samuel chapter 15 puts a comparison to the sin committed by rebellion as to the sin of divination, a sin committed by resumption and iniquity as to that of idolatry. The book also continues to warn those individuals who use divination will be rejected by the lord. Exodus claims that any person practicing sorcery is to be put to death.

But if Christian soothsayers are present among as why does the bible and church denounce them so strongly despite them being Christians? There are several cases where they have been expressed as frauds because these individuals are believed to get immense information on someone through ordinary means.

But in some special instances they have been in possession of some vital information that is really difficult to obtain by physical assessment. The church and the bible concur that this are dark forces, hence they are not from God but from Satan. The bible claims Satan is deceitful and pretends to be an angel of God, hence sorcery and anything in its likeness is not acceptable by a huge majority of Christians.
