It’s all about the intention , our hearts, burning sage is not a sin. As long as we’re not offering to or seeking other entities, it’s just the energy of the plant itself Sage is part of nature created by God, And I believe we have many sources in earth that can helps us protecting our energy, created by God I love God and I also believe in the power of our energy and being connected to the universe, which is God , he’s present in everything And He made nature so perfect that we can benefit from it to protect our energies from negative ones, cause unfortunately bad energy is all around us and sometimes affects our mood and feelings It’s all about the intention we put into it It’s ok if you’re against it, but don’t say that it’s a sin and people are going to hell for it God is love, dude and He knows our hearts “Accept my prayer as incense offered to you, and my upraised hands as an evening offering. (Psalm 141:2, NLT)” Revelations 8: 3 Another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all God’s people, on the golden altar in front of the throne. 4 The smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of God’s people, went up before God from the angel’s hand.
All I need is praying to Jesus Christ for any iniquities. Straight to Jesus I don’t need to burn anything or pray to Mary or any saint I take my prayers straight to Jesus Christ. And he has answered many prayers. And has already forgiven all my sins on the cross.
Everytime i have an issue everyone i know says "get u some sage or palo santo " and im like "but what does God think ?! " thank u for doing this it really helped me out. I got me a palo santo candle but after watching this im going to take it back
God gave me it, I know nothing; But I’m here too learn as much as I can. So what makes me feel good inside I will continue to do. My conscious guides me, but this modern world has polluted our minds. WE ARE ONE I AM YOU, YOU ARE ME. All these egos built up from religious / spiritual beliefs just separated us all! GOD BLESS
We are NOT one. You are NOT me, I am NOT you. If you were a believer in Christ, maybe we could be one, but if you think burning sage is ok, that in itself shows me you are a believer in Christ.
I have a short attention span but the only topic i can seem to sit thru are videos like this to help me get closer with God and I wanted to thankyou for making this :) I will not be burning sage to let out any negative energy but pray to God about instead of living in fear 🙂
The New Testament makes several typological references to incense, including a Christological reference to the coals from the altar of incense taken behind the veil on the Day of Atonement (Hebrews 9:3-4), and a reference to the prayers of believers as incense (Revelation 5:8).
I was listening to the reasoning behind sage I wanted to try it for the smell of it only I am a Christian I was worried that that would be a sin to burn it so glad you cleared that for me I definitely do not believe in any other spirits only the spirit of our lord Jesus Christ thanks again Amen!
I love the smell of incense, just like candles. I found out shortly after buying some that it's used improperly by many individuals in practices of witchcraft ect. I don't believe in that spiritual stuff, im a devoted believer. I still wanted to be sure I wasn't maybe giving ground to the enemy or anything so this video helped alot. Thanks guys 😁
Thank you for your clear and non offensive response and knowledge as a Christian I found it insightful and have definitely learnt something I needed to know as I was thinking about doing it, but I now think it wouldn't be a good idea ❤ blessings guys ❤🙏
There are many things called witchcraft that ARE in the Bible it depends on what kind of Christian you are and if you follow the a Bible preaching church or what others might say - those that don't understand what they HAVE FULLY IN CHRIST! AMEN 🙌 I speak in tongues, I do pray with sage at times and there's nothing wrong with insense for enjoying it. I do it all with a joyful heart and free spirit, born again with Jesus Christ 😊
We certainly would not want anyone to stumble... (1Co 10:23) All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not. (1Co 10:24) Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth.
I'm not sure why it's not being said that anything you do... The source is what matters. If you are summoning evil spirits while using sage then yes you are agreeing with Satan. If sage is bad or evil or is sorcerery... Then I guess water used in baptism (which is a holy ritual and blessed ritual) or holy water being used to bless your space or cast out evil is also sorcery? No. It's the source that counts. If this doesn't make sense to anyone I will reference psalm 51:7 - Purge me with hyssop and I shall be clean, wash me and I shall be whiter than SNOW. Hyssop is an herb/plant. Why would the bible mention an herb to purge or cleanse something if it is evil. Everything created by God has uses and power such as water, hyssop, olive oil and yes sage... We are not to worship these things. Because that makes it idolatry. But using sage as a Christian to ward evil demons or spirits away, I do not think it is evil.
How we go about it matters, I read recently how they had oil for the temple that was to be used very specifically, sacrifices that were to be made and eaten etc very specifically, and two of Aaron's son's didn't obey and died. I don't think we'd die but there is certain ways that don't please God and that personally I don't want to cross that line if I can help it. I find God often has mercy over ignorance, so if someone genuinely doesn't realize they're doing wrong God will show signs to them. I love what you mentioned about hissop, I'll have to look into that.
the problem is demons r real, and they need you to burn sage, GOD does not. and water is symbolic to be born again. witchcraft uses water to do spells, but we dont burn sage to symbolize we burn it to bring in energy. hope that clarifies a little. we are born out of water, hence why we need to be baptized in water. Also, not sure if we care about anything out of the book of Enoch, but he clearly states the demons are the ones that introduced humans to witchcraft and sage burning.
Jesus is our Source to cast out devils. He is also our leader. He did not create Sage to cast out demons. That is a false teaching. Jesus cast out demons while he walked the earth. He did not carry a bag around his waist full of sage. He used God's Power and anything less is not only idolatry but a false teaching and these men in this podcast are watering down the message to keep ratings and to garner popularity = money. Be careful who you listen to. They will be judged for leading you astray. But you stand alone before God and will be judged for believing everything you hear. The bible says, "My people perish for lack of knowledge." Jesus condemned the teaching of the Pharisees calling them BLIND guides.
I wanted just interject that yes God looks at our hearts and intentions, however that doesn't make it safe or ok to dabble into things that can open doors for the enemy to come in or attack us. We must safeguard ourselves home our windows and doors from the enemy. The enemy is looking for any reason to attack us or our family and loved ones. Just keep your "points of entry safeguarded. And don't be fooled or misled, because although your heart and intentions may be pure the anime can use your ignorance or lack of knowledge as a way to attack. He is always looking for an excuse to attack
"And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb-bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for food." In the second chapter of Genesis (2:16-17) vegetarianism is re-affirmed as people's spiritually proper diet. 🥗 What about yoga, chakras and crystals? 🤸♀️💎Can you just view them as exercise, energetic alignment and pretty rocks and see the value of fitness, movement to get our energy up and circulation going strong, good health and energy as more natural like the sun powering plants, trees, lizards on rocks and people alike? 🌞 Can you connect Bible verses with these issues that seem so limiting, fear-mongering and divisive when we'd do better to bridge any gaps between religion and spirituality with clarity, connection and commonsense? Thanks for sharing your knowledge and inspiring. 🙏💞🕊️✌️
Definitely yoga is bad they do poses of false gods not the true God and meditating like saying ohm emptying tge murder makes space for demons to enter It's not just stretching those poses are lije bowing to whomever Don't be fooled So can martial arts be deceiving
This is a white mans point of view put on a native to speak on this matter. This practice is medicinal all over north south and central america, the use of plants, herbs, and wood. And yes we have our own cultural belief of clearing negativity in this form. Acepthemine, Ibuprofen, Asprin comes from this background using nature to help aleviate ones health.
This is not a white man's point of view this is only one man's point of view, white men been burning incense for thousands of years and to this day white men still burns incense as Catholics, orthodox, Lutherans and some Methodist and the white folks who practice their ancestral beliefs all burns incense. Incense is widely used by white folks. Plus this guy pretty much don't know the bible as the bible supports and praises the use of incense plus God tells us in scripture he has given us all the herbs of the earth to use as medicine and herbs can be used in the form of incense for it's health benefits.
Don’t native Americans believe in earth gods??? Like the dance to a rain god for rain, and other things like that??? That in itself is not pleasing to THE GOD of the Bible.
Frankinsense and mur was used in the temples. You assumption that when peolle use sage or smoke that they are automatically not using God or the Holy spirit and of course have no faith or hope , this is your prejudice culturally and ignorance religiously, of course have you ever thought that people that actually know how to use it well can Be Christian and relying and calling on God etc ., and the sage just assist the process as it is one of the gifts from creation, from the garden , though thise fallen from the garden those would not know the gifts from Nature and don't really know much . I myself can have God christ and the holy spirit and i can be very grown up and use sage and God is not having offense with that , I asked directly although I dont have to use sage , God gave lots of other things and not just only what you do , perhaps when you judge peolle in that way you are holding yourself out to others and God as the primary example or so elevated position , this is not wise Of course we can examine Christians lives and discover that most are Romanised pagan Christians in reality but assume they have the holy spirit and therefore the only pure form of religion . Lets see , Christmas is pagan period , not in The Bible and your keeping it , wedding rings ... more non sense, Roman calendars you serve accordingly , you switched sabbath to Sunday to worship man and continue to do so, your days of the week and.month's of the year pagan also , roman , Civil law , yes you practice lots of paganism , we could continue. 5031c no where jn the Bible, Caucasian picture of Christ , not him, more paganism. Water,( fire , and steam also cleanses our body inside and outside ,) but you use that , ritualistically more often than the pagan culture you celebrate Nd call it christ . Christmas on. DEC 25 , is solar 100 %, . Wearing ties, doesn't mention that in the Bible, still doing that . GLAD. Your a pagan christian thinking everything else is pagan but you. Its ok to have purification with The Holy spirit and its ok to use a the things that God gave us jn a good way . Why do you practice paganism and Some Christianity but nothing Hebrew ? I think your a little scared that people can access God with out you in the way controlling and limiting them and you would prefer them to go thru you and throw some money in the pot znd all 10% out of context though . God made creation, your a child of religion perhaps, if you were with God the Creator you would take back your place in creation and know nature and the gifts God gave us on earth not just in heaven . Jesus probably did some ethnic things in his life ,.no paganism of Rome would make Jesus happy is my guess , Maybe consider not speaking on the things you don't actually understand so you don't get yourself judged by God Be blessed always !
I pray over my sage the same as I pray over my oil, so this is a topic that’s odd for me since every historical reference to sage is medicinally and energetically positive. I use both to bless my house.
Why would you pray over sage and oil? Are you blessing the sage and oil? That isn't a christian practice And you as a christian should realize that all blessing come from the almighty God So, how does burning incense in your home and rubbing the walls with oil bless you? It doesn't You are participating in pagan practices Using sage for its medicine qualities or because it smells good isn't bad at all Using sage to bless your house is pagan Also, scientific literature doesn't completely point to sage having positive health benefits Maybe a placebo effect at best Not how I didn't say it creates a "positive energy" The mention of positive and negative energies is exclusively a age old pagan practice
@@Call.Me.Chantell. we all have energy, this is why chemistry is such a beautiful thing to me. When you meet someone and you two have instant chemistry it’s the matching of energy and souls. Have you ever gotten a bad vibe from someone or something, it almost puts you off cuz you just sense something? That’s energy, you being highly intune with self and god and sensing something is off. People and places can leave a negative energy behind through presence or words if they’re not highly intune as yourself and it can bring your mood and energy down and become low vibrational *this is a long story but a good example through personal experience* Me and my brother are completely different, he’s involved with gangs, Im a child of god. One day he came around to my house (I live with my parents) my energy and vibration was through the roof because he brought a lot of bad energy, I felt it. Here’s when I firmly believed in energy and my intuition, on a drop of a dime all of a sudden I felt relaxed, it was like I was antsy and fidgety the entire time and then on a drop of a hat I was relaxed, I got up and looked out the window and I seen his car gone. I legit felt his energy leave and I instantly became relaxed. This is why you need to be mindful of what your mood is like when your around certain people. The smoke of sage helps release tension, and energy. Me personally I also pray and bless myself when doing it.
@@firstnamelastname-ko3ge I appreciate that you took your time and explain to me. What I understood when you explained about chemistry. I think about "energy" as emotions and where you explained about your brother's story. Cause you a child of God. I think that "energy" is the holy spirit. There's just something about burning sage that doesn't sits with me. I reminds me of witchcraft.
I would like to get an answer for the following.. if you could give me your opinion, that would be great . I just started work as a wellness coach for individuals in a harm reduction site here in Canada. My first day, they were all sitting at the table and they were smudging, and they asked if I would like to SMUDGE ( sage) as well. They explained to me that it was to get rid of negative energy. I was reluctant in my spirit, as I have never done it, I did it end up doing it because I did not want to disrespect them and I wanted to connect with them in order to help them in the future. What are your thoughts , if I am invited to do this again ..? Please be direct and honest. Thank you, Trudy
He was Old Testament. And it wasn’t Sage. Incense maybe yeah. That was part of offerings in that time. When Christ came he got rid of burned offerings, being the perfect offerings for our sins. Since Him, all we need is spiritual connection/relationship with Him. No more offerings/live sacrifices. Only sacrifice more is our own lives. Meaning denying the flesh and following the spirit.
ok, so would be burning cinnamon for the same type of thing be thing? just curious, hubby and i both grew up differently about blessing our home, he found it ok to burn cinnamon and i found it unbiblical, how do i address this in conversation with him? i don't want to be right it wrong, but just want to do what is right according to scripture
Well since Christ the rituals associated with hyssop are unnecessary also. Our hope and cleansing is in the grace of God and our fidelity to Christ and guidance of the Spirit.
@@christopherj9744 Couldn't you say the same about baptism? Sometimes modern Christianity is against rituals for personal convenience, but they're not bad.
As it may be "unnecessary" because Jesus was our last and ultimate sacrifice indeed! That's in no way condemning you, IF you wish to HONOR HIM by doing something on your own. Just understand, it is not required nor does it matter in way of redemption. I also have times of fasting, prayer and also burning my insense❤
@@penelopep3334 Yeah, I “get it”, but you also go to the doctor when you are sick, don’t you? Or do you only pray for healing? That’s where condemning Christians exhibit double standards and lack knowledge of the physical and metaphysical old ways, such as using the smoke of herbs or bathing in herbs. You preach faith in Christ, yet you go to doctors, mechanics, and use all kinds of tools rather than faith to fix your problems. In our modern era people have forgotten the old ways, and when they pop up, there’s a bible thumper at the ready to condemn them.
As long as you don't use it as an alternative to God. Use it as a step to clear your mind before prayer, the same as you might shut your eyes, getting on your knees, clasping your hands together, bowing your head, or all of these if you need. If you don't need to do any of things don't. Some people like to go into the quiet of a garden, or forest to be able to get closer to God. If burning sage opens your mind and helps you get closer to God, then do it. What you don't want to use it for is a substitute for any of the promises Jesus has said are available to us through his word. All we need to do is believe in his love...that's it.
What if you pray and call apon god and Jesus while saging, and use the father’s strength through the smoke and energy?? I feel like crystals and sage are quick to be labeled Against Christianity but the Bible speaks on healing stones which are crystals and aren’t these things not from earth which was created by god? Is it not all in the meaning behind your intentions while in use?
They believe in the power that God the creator has given the crystals. They are using the gifts that he has given us. And we praise him for it. Crystals, incense etc are tools to create a beautiful welcoming environment.
But burning fragrant incense sticks is not bad, it really gives a sense of freshness. In church also they burn pure Loban during the Roman catholic mass service in India. And Fragrant incense Frankincense was gifted to Baby Jesus by the 3 wise kings. It's like love and respect for him. I don't think burning it is a sin. Who doesn't like their room being Fragrant? And praying while the incense is burning and giving positive intentions is also not a sin. This is practiced in every culture all over the world. Smudging is no different. You can spray a room freshner but it won't be natural. It's a fact that when evil spirits are around, you get a really rotten smell suddenly in the middle of the night out of no where. And they don't like good fragrance spaces. Prayer is a must but burning incense is not a sin. It was a precious gift given to the Kings and Queens in ancient times including a birthday gift for Jesus. It's like wearing a perfume to feel good, that's not a sin. We must learn something good from every culture/religion. But don't follow it blindly. Take something good from every religion / culture. Do your own research and don't believe anyone blindly. Sage is safer because it's free of chemicals and you are sure not to inhale the factory made incense sticks which will give out toxic fumes. Sage is created by God. Everything made by him is good.
What you are describing is mysticism It's a very simple understanding and people love to conflate the sage with pagan practices While sage is used in pagan practices, the sage itself isn't pagan, God is the creator of the sage, so the sage itself wouldn't be considered an "evil" herb Burning the sage to present a positive atolmosphere and free the living space of "negative energy" is definitely a pagan practice and is sinful if used on such an occasion While different herbs and spices have been used as gifts and have been burned inside of temples or churches, it was an ordained way of worshipping the God of the bible The burning in the Bible was NEVER used to free an atmosphere of negative energy and to promote positive vibes Any christian participating in such a ritual is participating in "new age mysticism" This practice isn't new in any sense, but it has become a popular phenomenon amongst the tik tok crowd While you are right about everything made by the lord Jesus isngood Using sage as a smudging ritual is bad Smudging has a specific intended purpose And that specific intended purpose was not ordained by God, but is commonly used by the pagans Conclusion Smudging as an intent to promote a "positive" atmosphere and to free the environment of "negative" energy is a pagan practice Participating in this new age mysticism is a sin Intent matters There is no herb in this entire planet that is going to bring a positive spiritual outcome That comes from relying on the Lord Jesus christ ALONE God bless
Only if you are using it for the wrong reason, burning sage or incense isn't evil nor a sun what makes it a sin depends on how you are using it. Remember God tells us he has given us all of the herbs of the the earth as medicine and incense is just an herb with help benefits if you burn sage or any herb as an incense it is better to burn it for it health benefits. As sage kills bad bacteria in the air pretty much like frankansence does.
In my experience it actually creates a peaceful atmosphere. I call on The Mighty I AM to bless it as I go. I don't invoke any other entity. Just Our Creator. You can't do it without intent to receive blessing from HIM.
Isaiah 53:5, he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes, we are healed. For salvation, we just need to follow the way they did it in Acts? They were baptized in water for the removal of sins and filled with the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:38! Here's why! The gospel is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. If we are to follow him, we must do the same thing. Death= repentance, Burial = baptism, and resurrection = being filled and rising again from the dead. That's what Acts 2:38 is. We must obey the gospel, 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL of our Lord Jesus Christ... Matthew 7:21-23, Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that DOETH THE WILL OF MY FATHER which is in Heaven. St John 3:3-5, EXCEPT a man, be born of WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, he cannot enter into the kingdom of GOD. We can't come up with our own gospel. Galatians 1:8-9, But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. Don't be cursed. One way for all people. Jews, Gentiles, and Samaritans. Our salvation has to match up with the scriptures and no scriptures on the subject can be taken away. Eternity is TOOO long to be WRONG! st, John 5:39, Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me. The gospels show what Christ has done on the cross for us. The book of Acts shows us the beginning of Christ's Church and how to enter the Church, obeying Acts 2:38. The letters were written to the Church to show us how to behave now that we are born again into the Church. It's better to walk alone than to walk with a crowd going in the wrong direction. Are we supposed to follow the teachings of the apostles? Acts 2:42, And they continued steadfastly in the apostle's doctrines. Ephesians 2:20, We are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone. Don't get Titus 3:5 mixed up with James 2:14-26, about WORKS. One is a WORK of your OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS OR GOOD DEEDS and the other is a WORK OF FAITH. Titus 1:16, They profess that they know God; but in WORKS they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. God bless you.
Read it!! For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, Whosoever would believe in him, would not perish forever but would have eternal life forever. 17. For Jesus Christ did not come into the world to condemn. But to save the save the lost and sufferinng.
@@penelopep3334 You got that rght! So how is one saved? Mark 16:16, he that believes and is baptized shall be SAVED. John 3:3-5, Acts 2:38, Colossians 2:12, Galatians 3:27, Romans 6:3-5, 1 Peter 3:21, etc Do we do away with all these? Do we pick and choose which scriptures we like or not like? Come on! Got to be more wise than that. Titus 3:5, it's not by YOUR OWN GOOD DEEDS. James 2:14-26, Faith without WORKS IS DEAD is didn't. It's a work of faith or obedience to God's command. Like Noah and Lot believed and then they had to OBEY also. Noah had to build the ark and Lot had to leave Sodom. Faith always bring about WORKS to back up your faith.
It's no wonder nothing good ever came out of my native American Indian family they used this sage and their drinking heavily got worse and all 5 uncles died from alcoholism.
That's not all, I'm sorry you went through that, it's all over my family's rez too, but there are beautiful christ believing natives everywhere, ( not all alcoholics)! That have beautiful hearts, not all natives are drunks! Like all whites ( I'm white) not all blacks or hispanics,( my husband n children are Hispanic) there are bad seeds, drunks etc, in every race!! And there are beautiful people in every race, my family ( native) are proud, good parents, not drinkers, and happy, no matter what they go through, they don't wollow in sorrow, but stay strong, take pride and always cherish there lost loved ones( my brother in law) and always remain proud, they don't let themselves loose it or go downhill cuz they lost someone, they just continue to celebrate their life, and
Keep on strong for the children. If you don't see the good in every race, and exclude the bad ones, I feel sorry for you, I got first hand experience ( and I'm not only white, I am souix too. Unless you've personally seen the unitism and respect, and care in these people, don't include the good ones in the ones who unfortunately fell into alcoholism, just like every race in the world. Very judgmental. I am very sorry you lost loved ones to it, I did too, two foster children I helped my mom and step dad raise, youngest I had to raise after my mom passed, my Lil sisters( from Milana tribe) one past of liver failure, and the youngest, they just found her ( as you call it) " remains" this August, of an overdose, so I've been on both sides, I've seen beauty and the beast!
I'm an Indian Christian, so I think I can speak to this. The Bible doesn't explicitly speak about Yoga. Yoga was established on Hindu beliefs. With that being said, there are many physiological/mental benefits to yoga. There is no need to implement the spirituality. The Lord looks at our heart. (1 Samuel 16:7) The same applies to Kung Fu
They are all christ believers, the funeral was the most beautiful thing I ever witnessed., my step dad, and all foster kids were native too. It was all used in the grace of God, is that wrong in God's eyes? Just want to understand.
Using sage because it smells good isn't bad at all Intent really does matter Sage is a creation of God, but humans have managed to twist these godly creations and use them in ungodly rituals Enjoying the sage for it's aroma and purely for it's aroma, isn't bad at all Thinking the sage would provide you any spiritual benefit is definitely bad You said that there were natives in the group and many natives have used sage in their pagan rituals We have to be aware that we as Christians should not become a stumbling block for others Burning sage could give the non-christians and the christians the impression that the sage is used to banish "negative energy" If you explicitly explain the use and the intent behind the burning of the sage, then it should be fine You shouldn't be to caught up in all the Christian calling everything pagan and evil Burning sage isn't bad Burning sage to use it in a pagan practice is Should also try to avoid "positive" and "negative" energies vernacular Too much tik tok mysticism bouncing around l, it could easily be misinterpreted Rely on the Lord Jesus to out the positivity in your life Not oil, not some herb, and not some ritual God bless
They scared to tell you that IT IS SORCERY!!!! Burning sage is SORCERY! Stay away from burning sage and incense especially if you thinking your denying negative spirits away from or out from around you… burn CANDLES it’s the LIGHT that is righteous AND IS A DEPICTION OF THE MOST HIGH AHAYAH 🙌🏽❤️🙌🏽

Sage burning ? Satan and his demons laugh at it ! The name of ((( Jesus))) has the power over demons , PERIOD !!!!! NOTHING ELSE , HOLY WATER , INCENSE IS SORCERIES , ROSERY BEADS DOES NOTHING , PERIOD ! READ CORINTHIANS 3 : 3 . WHAT IT SAYS ABOUT EVIL ? ENOUGH SAID ...

You speak about what the Bible says but, which bible you speak of? The Bible has be rewritten a number of times, things were taken out of the Bible and things were inserted. How does anyone know what is right/ true or what’s forbidden/ false? We don’t…. People choose to be Spiritual or religious and some even are both, the people who choose to be Spiritual believe in the energy of one’s soul. There are different practices i.e like yoga that works with your energy within one’s soul and sagging is another practice it’s all about energies. Don’t get me wrong, I do believe that the Bible has some significance in spirituality but, it’s been altered in order to control the masses so we don’t know the “Inner” you and who we really are, which are very powerful beings, the world would be uncontrollable if we all knew how powerful we (our soul’s)are, keeping our soul’s at a high vibration with the earth’s energy is what those who are more spiritual believe.
All translations are noted in the different versions of the Bible. So you can se the difference. Good “spirits”, which are the Godly ones don’t call people out their name
If you want to know the truth you have to go back to the original source which is the Torah every religion took from the Torah including Christianity. It’s all in history. If you want to know the truth read the Hebrew bible and learn Hebrew they can’t change a language. Jesus was a Jew. But his real name was not Jesus it was yashua but so much was changed no one will ever know the truth if you don’t research. A lot of stuff that were done we’re called demonic but in actual truth were not. Does anyone ever think we follow a religion that outed so many people and forced people to become Christian. Yet yashua who we call Jesus was a Jew. Everything is a lie whatsoever is in the dark shall be brought to light. I’m with Yashua/Jesus all day long i no longer consider myself a Christian but a Jew.
Sage does Not get rid of evil spirit the word of God does, its a pagan Occult practice, definitively Not for Christian, bind evil spirits in Jesus Name, l think you should give a hard & fast reply ~luke warm people not loved by our Father.
Your God threw off the hill last god before him and that god did the same to the one before and so on and so on. What makes your belief any more valid then someone elses?
Everyone is loved by the father. He hates the sin, not the sinner. He died for everyone. Even the most wicked. He loves everyone. You are wrong about that part.

It’s all about the intention , our hearts, burning sage is not a sin. As long as we’re not offering to or seeking other entities, it’s just the energy of the plant itself
Sage is part of nature created by God,
And I believe we have many sources in earth that can helps us protecting our energy, created by God
I love God and I also believe in the power of our energy and being connected to the universe, which is God , he’s present in everything
And He made nature so perfect that we can benefit from it to protect our energies from negative ones, cause unfortunately bad energy is all around us and sometimes affects our mood and feelings
It’s all about the intention we put into it
It’s ok if you’re against it, but don’t say that it’s a sin and people are going to hell for it
God is love, dude and He knows our hearts
“Accept my prayer as incense offered to you, and my upraised hands as an evening offering. (Psalm 141:2, NLT)”
Revelations 8:
3 Another angel, who had a golden censer, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense to offer, with the prayers of all God’s people, on the golden altar in front of the throne. 4 The smoke of the incense, together with the prayers of God’s people, went up before God from the angel’s hand.
Its all good if we believe in Jesus but if we believe in Jesus then burning sage isnt really nessessary
@@rokitman5753 exactly. I came from The newage and witchcraft and burning sage is an invitation for spirits and a door opened like weed.
All I need is praying to Jesus Christ for any iniquities. Straight to Jesus I don’t need to burn anything or pray to Mary or any saint I take my prayers straight to Jesus Christ. And he has answered many prayers. And has already forgiven all my sins on the cross.
Agreed...

Preacher Wilson Calvin testimony
The New Testament makes several typological references to incense, including a Christological reference to the coals from the altar of incense taken behind the veil on the Day of Atonement (Hebrews 9:3-4), and a reference to the prayers of believers as incense (Revelation 5:8).
I was listening to the reasoning behind sage I wanted to try it for the smell of it only I am a Christian I was worried that that would be a sin to burn it so glad you cleared that for me I definitely do not believe in any other spirits only the spirit of our lord Jesus Christ thanks again Amen!
I love the smell of incense, just like candles. I found out shortly after buying some that it's used improperly by many individuals in practices of witchcraft ect. I don't believe in that spiritual stuff, im a devoted believer. I still wanted to be sure I wasn't maybe giving ground to the enemy or anything so this video helped alot. Thanks guys 😁
Thank you for your clear and non offensive response and knowledge as a Christian I found it insightful and have definitely learnt something I needed to know as I was thinking about doing it, but I now think it wouldn't be a good idea ❤ blessings guys ❤🙏
There are many things called witchcraft that ARE in the Bible it depends on what kind of Christian you are and if you follow the a Bible preaching church or what others might say - those that don't understand what they HAVE FULLY IN CHRIST! AMEN 🙌 I speak in tongues, I do pray with sage at times and there's nothing wrong with insense for enjoying it. I do it all with a joyful heart and free spirit, born again with Jesus Christ 😊
We certainly would not want anyone to stumble... (1Co 10:23) All things are lawful for me, but all things are not expedient: all things are lawful for me, but all things edify not.
(1Co 10:24) Let no man seek his own, but every man another's wealth.
I'm not sure why it's not being said that anything you do... The source is what matters. If you are summoning evil spirits while using sage then yes you are agreeing with Satan. If sage is bad or evil or is sorcerery... Then I guess water used in baptism (which is a holy ritual and blessed ritual) or holy water being used to bless your space or cast out evil is also sorcery? No. It's the source that counts. If this doesn't make sense to anyone I will reference psalm 51:7 - Purge me with hyssop and I shall be clean, wash me and I shall be whiter than SNOW. Hyssop is an herb/plant. Why would the bible mention an herb to purge or cleanse something if it is evil. Everything created by God has uses and power such as water, hyssop, olive oil and yes sage... We are not to worship these things. Because that makes it idolatry. But using sage as a Christian to ward evil demons or spirits away, I do not think it is evil.
I totally agree with you.
WELL SAID”… thankyou
How we go about it matters, I read recently how they had oil for the temple that was to be used very specifically, sacrifices that were to be made and eaten etc very specifically, and two of Aaron's son's didn't obey and died. I don't think we'd die but there is certain ways that don't please God and that personally I don't want to cross that line if I can help it. I find God often has mercy over ignorance, so if someone genuinely doesn't realize they're doing wrong God will show signs to them. I love what you mentioned about hissop, I'll have to look into that.
the problem is demons r real, and they need you to burn sage, GOD does not. and water is symbolic to be born again. witchcraft uses water to do spells, but we dont burn sage to symbolize we burn it to bring in energy. hope that clarifies a little. we are born out of water, hence why we need to be baptized in water. Also, not sure if we care about anything out of the book of Enoch, but he clearly states the demons are the ones that introduced humans to witchcraft and sage burning.
Jesus is our Source to cast out devils. He is also our leader. He did not create Sage to cast out demons. That is a false teaching. Jesus cast out demons while he walked the earth. He did not carry a bag around his waist full of sage. He used God's Power and anything less is not only idolatry but a false teaching and these men in this podcast are watering down the message to keep ratings and to garner popularity = money. Be careful who you listen to. They will be judged for leading you astray. But you stand alone before God and will be judged for believing everything you hear. The bible says, "My people perish for lack of knowledge." Jesus condemned the teaching of the Pharisees calling them BLIND guides.
I wanted just interject that yes God looks at our hearts and intentions, however that doesn't make it safe or ok to dabble into things that can open doors for the enemy to come in or attack us. We must safeguard ourselves home our windows and doors from the enemy. The enemy is looking for any reason to attack us or our family and loved ones. Just keep your "points of entry safeguarded. And don't be fooled or misled, because although your heart and intentions may be pure the anime can use your ignorance or lack of knowledge as a way to attack. He is always looking for an excuse to attack
"And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb-bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for food."

What about yoga, chakras and crystals? 🤸♀️💎Can you just view them as exercise, energetic alignment and pretty rocks and see the value of fitness, movement to get our energy up and circulation going strong, good health and energy as more natural like the sun powering plants, trees, lizards on rocks and people alike? 🌞 Can you connect Bible verses with these issues that seem so limiting, fear-mongering and divisive when we'd do better to bridge any gaps between religion and spirituality with clarity, connection and commonsense?

This is a white mans point of view put on a native to speak on this matter. This practice is medicinal all over north south and central america, the use of plants, herbs, and wood. And yes we have our own cultural belief of clearing negativity in this form. Acepthemine, Ibuprofen, Asprin comes from this background using nature to help aleviate ones health.
This is not a white man's point of view this is only one man's point of view, white men been burning incense for thousands of years and to this day white men still burns incense as Catholics, orthodox, Lutherans and some Methodist and the white folks who practice their ancestral beliefs all burns incense. Incense is widely used by white folks. Plus this guy pretty much don't know the bible as the bible supports and praises the use of incense plus God tells us in scripture he has given us all the herbs of the earth to use as medicine and herbs can be used in the form of incense for it's health benefits.
Don’t native Americans believe in earth gods??? Like the dance to a rain god for rain, and other things like that??? That in itself is not pleasing to THE GOD of the Bible.
I’m Native American (Navajo) and my family and majority of the people on our tribe believe in God.
You watched too many movies sky, that's not at all what it's about.
That's a really good point of view. Makes me feel better as a Christian to do smudging. 😂
In the book of Tobit, Rapheal burned fish intestine to chase away Asmodeus.
Frankinsense and mur was used in the temples.
You assumption that when peolle use sage or smoke that they are automatically not using God or the Holy spirit and of course have no faith or hope , this is your prejudice culturally and ignorance religiously, of course have you ever thought that people that actually know how to use it well can Be Christian and relying and calling on God etc ., and the sage just assist the process as it is one of the gifts from creation, from the garden , though thise fallen from the garden those would not know the gifts from Nature and don't really know much .
I myself can have God christ and the holy spirit and i can be very grown up and use sage and God is not having offense with that , I asked directly although I dont have to use sage , God gave lots of other things and not just only what you do , perhaps when you judge peolle in that way you are holding yourself out to others and God as the primary example or so elevated position , this is not wise
Of course we can examine Christians lives and discover that most are Romanised pagan Christians in reality but assume they have the holy spirit and therefore the only pure form of religion .
Lets see , Christmas is pagan period , not in The Bible and your keeping it , wedding rings ... more non sense, Roman calendars you serve accordingly , you switched sabbath to Sunday to worship man and continue to do so, your days of the week and.month's of the year pagan also , roman , Civil law , yes you practice lots of paganism , we could continue.
5031c no where jn the Bible, Caucasian picture of Christ , not him, more paganism.
Water,( fire , and steam also cleanses our body inside and outside ,) but you use that , ritualistically more often than the pagan culture you celebrate Nd call it christ .
Christmas on. DEC 25 , is solar 100 %, .
Wearing ties, doesn't mention that in the Bible, still doing that .
GLAD. Your a pagan christian thinking everything else is pagan but you.
Its ok to have purification with The Holy spirit and its ok to use a the things that God gave us jn a good way .
Why do you practice paganism and Some Christianity but nothing Hebrew ?
I think your a little scared that people can access God with out you in the way controlling and limiting them and you would prefer them to go thru you and throw some money in the pot znd all 10% out of context though .
God made creation, your a child of religion perhaps, if you were with God the Creator you would take back your place in creation and know nature and the gifts God gave us on earth not just in heaven .
Jesus probably did some ethnic things in his life ,.no paganism of Rome would make Jesus happy is my guess ,
Maybe consider not speaking on the things you don't actually understand so you don't get yourself judged by God
Be blessed always !
I pray over my sage the same as I pray over my oil, so this is a topic that’s odd for me since every historical reference to sage is medicinally and energetically positive. I use both to bless my house.
Why would you pray over sage and oil?
Are you blessing the sage and oil?
That isn't a christian practice
And you as a christian should realize that all blessing come from the almighty God
So, how does burning incense in your home and rubbing the walls with oil bless you?
It doesn't
You are participating in pagan practices
Using sage for its medicine qualities or because it smells good isn't bad at all
Using sage to bless your house is pagan
Also, scientific literature doesn't completely point to sage having positive health benefits
Maybe a placebo effect at best
Not how I didn't say it creates a "positive energy"
The mention of positive and negative energies is exclusively a age old pagan practice
Why is it used in communion? @1Corinthians13.4_7

And what denomination of church?
It’s not getting rid spirits it la cleansing the energy in the area
Please explain to me what "energy" would be in the room. I don't understand the word energy and I don't understand why burn sage.
@@Call.Me.Chantell. we all have energy, this is why chemistry is such a beautiful thing to me. When you meet someone and you two have instant chemistry it’s the matching of energy and souls. Have you ever gotten a bad vibe from someone or something, it almost puts you off cuz you just sense something? That’s energy, you being highly intune with self and god and sensing something is off. People and places can leave a negative energy behind through presence or words if they’re not highly intune as yourself and it can bring your mood and energy down and become low vibrational
*this is a long story but a good example through personal experience*
Me and my brother are completely different, he’s involved with gangs, Im a child of god. One day he came around to my house (I live with my parents) my energy and vibration was through the roof because he brought a lot of bad energy, I felt it. Here’s when I firmly believed in energy and my intuition, on a drop of a dime all of a sudden I felt relaxed, it was like I was antsy and fidgety the entire time and then on a drop of a hat I was relaxed, I got up and looked out the window and I seen his car gone. I legit felt his energy leave and I instantly became relaxed. This is why you need to be mindful of what your mood is like when your around certain people. The smoke of sage helps release tension, and energy. Me personally I also pray and bless myself when doing it.
@@firstnamelastname-ko3ge I appreciate that you took your time and explain to me.
What I understood when you explained about chemistry. I think about "energy" as emotions and where you explained about your brother's story.
Cause you a child of God. I think that "energy" is the holy spirit.
There's just something about burning sage that doesn't sits with me.
I reminds me of witchcraft.
No. Actually, it’s INVITING spirits
God said it is good all that he made but people used it to do evil. Praying.

I would like to get an answer for the following.. if you could give me your opinion, that would be great .
I just started work as a wellness coach for individuals in a harm reduction site here in Canada. My first day, they were all sitting at the table and they were smudging, and they asked if I would like to SMUDGE ( sage) as well. They explained to me that it was to get rid of negative energy. I was reluctant in my spirit, as I have never done it, I did it end up doing it because I did not want to disrespect them and I wanted to connect with them in order to help them in the future. What are your thoughts , if I am invited to do this again ..? Please be direct and honest.
Thank you,
Trudy
Say No. Set boundaries. It's ok to not participate in things you don't feel comfortable in. Trust the Holy Ghost that is leading you.
Solomon burned incense
He was Old Testament. And it wasn’t Sage. Incense maybe yeah. That was part of offerings in that time. When Christ came he got rid of burned offerings, being the perfect offerings for our sins. Since Him, all we need is spiritual connection/relationship with Him. No more offerings/live sacrifices. Only sacrifice more is our own lives. Meaning denying the flesh and following the spirit.
ok, so would be burning cinnamon for the same type of thing be thing? just curious, hubby and i both grew up differently about blessing our home, he found it ok to burn cinnamon and i found it unbiblical, how do i address this in conversation with him? i don't want to be right it wrong, but just want to do what is right according to scripture
What’s next? A video condemning the use of hyssop for spiritual cleansing as described in Psalms 51?
Well since Christ the rituals associated with hyssop are unnecessary also.
Our hope and cleansing is in the grace of God and our fidelity to Christ and guidance of the Spirit.
@@christopherj9744 Couldn't you say the same about baptism? Sometimes modern Christianity is against rituals for personal convenience, but they're not bad.
As it may be "unnecessary" because Jesus was our last and ultimate sacrifice indeed! That's in no way condemning you, IF you wish to HONOR HIM by doing something on your own. Just understand, it is not required nor does it matter in way of redemption. I also have times of fasting, prayer and also burning my insense❤
@@penelopep3334 Yeah, I “get it”, but you also go to the doctor when you are sick, don’t you? Or do you only pray for healing? That’s where condemning Christians exhibit double standards and lack knowledge of the physical and metaphysical old ways, such as using the smoke of herbs or bathing in herbs. You preach faith in Christ, yet you go to doctors, mechanics, and use all kinds of tools rather than faith to fix your problems. In our modern era people have forgotten the old ways, and when they pop up, there’s a bible thumper at the ready to condemn them.
Thank you for your input I haven't done it I just felt it wasn't right thank you God bless you'll
Very good explanation. Thanks
As long as you don't use it as an alternative to God. Use it as a step to clear your mind before prayer, the same as you might shut your eyes, getting on your knees, clasping your hands together, bowing your head, or all of these if you need. If you don't need to do any of things don't. Some people like to go into the quiet of a garden, or forest to be able to get closer to God. If burning sage opens your mind and helps you get closer to God, then do it. What you don't want to use it for is a substitute for any of the promises Jesus has said are available to us through his word. All we need to do is believe in his love...that's it.
What if you pray and call apon god and Jesus while saging, and use the father’s strength through the smoke and energy?? I feel like crystals and sage are quick to be labeled Against Christianity but the Bible speaks on healing stones which are crystals and aren’t these things not from earth which was created by god? Is it not all in the meaning behind your intentions while in use?
If you're relying on rocks to heal you, it's idolatry
They believe in the power that God the creator has given the crystals. They are using the gifts that he has given us. And we praise him for it. Crystals, incense etc are tools to create a beautiful welcoming environment.
Navajo Preacher Wilson Calvin testimony you tube
@@dumbskiz7630 No they aren't
I think you might be misinterpreting what it says in the Bible about healing stones.
But isn't because sage is to welcome the spirits to come to the chief warriors to make them stronger for war time
But burning fragrant incense sticks is not bad, it really gives a sense of freshness. In church also they burn pure Loban during the Roman catholic mass service in India. And Fragrant incense Frankincense was gifted to Baby Jesus by the 3 wise kings. It's like love and respect for him. I don't think burning it is a sin. Who doesn't like their room being Fragrant? And praying while the incense is burning and giving positive intentions is also not a sin. This is practiced in every culture all over the world. Smudging is no different. You can spray a room freshner but it won't be natural. It's a fact that when evil spirits are around, you get a really rotten smell suddenly in the middle of the night out of no where. And they don't like good fragrance spaces. Prayer is a must but burning incense is not a sin. It was a precious gift given to the Kings and Queens in ancient times including a birthday gift for Jesus. It's like wearing a perfume to feel good, that's not a sin. We must learn something good from every culture/religion. But don't follow it blindly. Take something good from every religion / culture. Do your own research and don't believe anyone blindly. Sage is safer because it's free of chemicals and you are sure not to inhale the factory made incense sticks which will give out toxic fumes. Sage is created by God. Everything made by him is good.
What you are describing is mysticism
It's a very simple understanding and people love to conflate the sage with pagan practices
While sage is used in pagan practices, the sage itself isn't pagan, God is the creator of the sage, so the sage itself wouldn't be considered an "evil" herb
Burning the sage to present a positive atolmosphere and free the living space of "negative energy" is definitely a pagan practice and is sinful if used on such an occasion
While different herbs and spices have been used as gifts and have been burned inside of temples or churches, it was an ordained way of worshipping the God of the bible
The burning in the Bible was NEVER used to free an atmosphere of negative energy and to promote positive vibes
Any christian participating in such a ritual is participating in "new age mysticism"
This practice isn't new in any sense, but it has become a popular phenomenon amongst the tik tok crowd
While you are right about everything made by the lord Jesus isngood
Using sage as a smudging ritual is bad
Smudging has a specific intended purpose
And that specific intended purpose was not ordained by God, but is commonly used by the pagans
Conclusion
Smudging as an intent to promote a "positive" atmosphere and to free the environment of "negative" energy is a pagan practice
Participating in this new age mysticism is a sin
Intent matters
There is no herb in this entire planet that is going to bring a positive spiritual outcome
That comes from relying on the Lord Jesus christ ALONE
God bless
So burning sage actually brings in negative energy or bad spirits?
Only if you are using it for the wrong reason, burning sage or incense isn't evil nor a sun what makes it a sin depends on how you are using it. Remember God tells us he has given us all of the herbs of the the earth as medicine and incense is just an herb with help benefits if you burn sage or any herb as an incense it is better to burn it for it health benefits. As sage kills bad bacteria in the air pretty much like frankansence does.
Exactly
In my experience it actually creates a peaceful atmosphere. I call on The Mighty I AM to bless it as I go. I don't invoke any other entity. Just Our Creator. You can't do it without intent to receive blessing from HIM.
Noo
Like 1 from 5 to 10 tells us how the angel of God appeared to Zechariah while he burnt incense in the temple
I meant in the book of Luke
Agreed love this!
Thank you for your brotherhood and passing on your knowledge and opinions on this matter
Isaiah 53:5, he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes, we are healed.
For salvation, we just need to follow the way they did it in Acts? They were baptized in water for the removal of sins and filled with the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:38!
Here's why! The gospel is the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:1-4. If we are to follow him, we must do the same thing. Death= repentance, Burial = baptism, and resurrection = being filled and rising again from the dead. That's what Acts 2:38 is.
We must obey the gospel, 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9, in flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that OBEY NOT THE GOSPEL of our Lord Jesus Christ... Matthew 7:21-23, Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that DOETH THE WILL OF MY FATHER which is in Heaven. St John 3:3-5, EXCEPT a man, be born of WATER AND OF THE SPIRIT, he cannot enter into the kingdom of GOD.
We can't come up with our own gospel. Galatians 1:8-9, But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. Don't be cursed.
One way for all people. Jews, Gentiles, and Samaritans. Our salvation has to match up with the scriptures and no scriptures on the subject can be taken away.
Eternity is TOOO long to be WRONG! st, John 5:39, Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
The gospels show what Christ has done on the cross for us. The book of Acts shows us the beginning of Christ's Church and how to enter the Church, obeying Acts 2:38. The letters were written to the Church to show us how to behave now that we are born again into the Church.
It's better to walk alone than to walk with a crowd going in the wrong direction.
Are we supposed to follow the teachings of the apostles? Acts 2:42, And they continued steadfastly in the apostle's doctrines. Ephesians 2:20, We are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief cornerstone.
Don't get Titus 3:5 mixed up with James 2:14-26, about WORKS. One is a WORK of your OWN RIGHTEOUSNESS OR GOOD DEEDS and the other is a WORK OF FAITH. Titus 1:16, They profess that they know God; but in WORKS they deny him, being abominable, and disobedient, and unto every good work reprobate. God bless you.
One is not saved by their own works!
Lest any man should boast. But he is saved by the Word of God.
John 3:16-18
Read it!! For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son, Whosoever would believe in him, would not perish forever but would have eternal life forever. 17. For Jesus Christ did not come into the world to condemn. But to save the save the lost and sufferinng.
@@penelopep3334 You got that rght! So how is one saved? Mark 16:16, he that believes and is baptized shall be SAVED. John 3:3-5, Acts 2:38, Colossians 2:12, Galatians 3:27, Romans 6:3-5, 1 Peter 3:21, etc Do we do away with all these? Do we pick and choose which scriptures we like or not like? Come on! Got to be more wise than that.
Titus 3:5, it's not by YOUR OWN GOOD DEEDS.
James 2:14-26, Faith without WORKS IS DEAD is didn't. It's a work of faith or obedience to God's command. Like Noah and Lot believed and then they had to OBEY also. Noah had to build the ark and Lot had to leave Sodom.
Faith always bring about WORKS to back up your faith.
Thank You!
Just give a definitive answer don’t say it’s okay if people like the smell. Stick to No
another youtuber said that burning sage even just for the odour sets up the atmosphere for the demonic
It's no wonder nothing good ever came out of my native American Indian family they used this sage and their drinking heavily got worse and all 5 uncles died from alcoholism.
That's not all, I'm sorry you went through that, it's all over my family's rez too, but there are beautiful christ believing natives everywhere, ( not all alcoholics)! That have beautiful hearts, not all natives are drunks! Like all whites ( I'm white) not all blacks or hispanics,( my husband n children are Hispanic) there are bad seeds, drunks etc, in every race!! And there are beautiful people in every race, my family ( native) are proud, good parents, not drinkers, and happy, no matter what they go through, they don't wollow in sorrow, but stay strong, take pride and always cherish there lost loved ones( my brother in law) and always remain proud, they don't let themselves loose it or go downhill cuz they lost someone, they just continue to celebrate their life, and
Keep on strong for the children. If you don't see the good in every race, and exclude the bad ones, I feel sorry for you, I got first hand experience ( and I'm not only white, I am souix too. Unless you've personally seen the unitism and respect, and care in these people, don't include the good ones in the ones who unfortunately fell into alcoholism, just like every race in the world. Very judgmental. I am very sorry you lost loved ones to it, I did too, two foster children I helped my mom and step dad raise, youngest I had to raise after my mom passed, my Lil sisters( from Milana tribe) one past of liver failure, and the youngest, they just found her ( as you call it) " remains" this August, of an overdose, so I've been on both sides, I've seen beauty and the beast!

Surprisingly the Bible actually encourages his people to meditate 🧘🏻♀️🕯️ 📖✝️on Gods word.
@@user-db6el7eb9p Could you elaborate?
I'm an Indian Christian, so I think I can speak to this.
The Bible doesn't explicitly speak about Yoga. Yoga was established on Hindu beliefs. With that being said, there are many physiological/mental benefits to yoga. There is no need to implement the spirituality. The Lord looks at our heart. (1 Samuel 16:7)
The same applies to Kung Fu
My sister lives on rez, her husband past, sage was used at his funeral, it was pure and beautiful, was that bad?
They are all christ believers, the funeral was the most beautiful thing I ever witnessed., my step dad, and all foster kids were native too. It was all used in the grace of God, is that wrong in God's eyes? Just want to understand.
Using sage because it smells good isn't bad at all
Intent really does matter
Sage is a creation of God, but humans have managed to twist these godly creations and use them in ungodly rituals
Enjoying the sage for it's aroma and purely for it's aroma, isn't bad at all
Thinking the sage would provide you any spiritual benefit is definitely bad
You said that there were natives in the group and many natives have used sage in their pagan rituals
We have to be aware that we as Christians should not become a stumbling block for others
Burning sage could give the non-christians and the christians the impression that the sage is used to banish "negative energy"
If you explicitly explain the use and the intent behind the burning of the sage, then it should be fine
You shouldn't be to caught up in all the Christian calling everything pagan and evil
Burning sage isn't bad
Burning sage to use it in a pagan practice is
Should also try to avoid "positive" and "negative" energies vernacular
Too much tik tok mysticism bouncing around l, it could easily be misinterpreted
Rely on the Lord Jesus to out the positivity in your life
Not oil, not some herb, and not some ritual
God bless
They scared to tell you that IT IS SORCERY!!!! Burning sage is SORCERY! Stay away from burning sage and incense especially if you thinking your denying negative spirits away from or out from around you… burn CANDLES it’s the LIGHT that is righteous AND IS A DEPICTION OF THE MOST HIGH AHAYAH 🙌🏽❤️🙌🏽
Your God threw off the hill last god before him and that god did the same to the one before and so on and so on. What makes your belief any more valid then someone elses?
@@ajtaranto1989 Leviticus 20:6 kjv 6 And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people. If you using Sage and Incense to bat away so-called evil or negative spirits... you only need to ask the most high from protection He will bat away all vengeance... I'm not saying belive me just do your own research

Nobody has the right to tell someone else how to worship...all ego no spirituality!
Right, yet God in the Bible says not to worship as the pagans
It isn't being egotistical
It's called biblically literate
The BLOOD OF JESUS 🥴🙏🏾
Wow
Can you do one about using oracle cards
God is the jealous God He doesn't want us to put our faith into sage Or anything else other than the father's son and the Holy Spirit.
No Palm raiders no Chinese fortune cookies no We g boards, No fortune tellers No astrologist Or anything else the world cooks up to deter your faith from God.
There is no God of lightning, There is no God of thunder
The list goes on and on and on!
There is only one true living God and 1 true doctrine
John 17:13

burn sage draws demons bad spirits
You speak about what the Bible says but, which bible you speak of? The Bible has be rewritten a number of times, things were taken out of the Bible and things were inserted. How does anyone know what is right/ true or what’s forbidden/ false? We don’t…. People choose to be Spiritual or religious and some even are both, the people who choose to be Spiritual believe in the energy of one’s soul. There are different practices i.e like yoga that works with your energy within one’s soul and sagging is another practice it’s all about energies. Don’t get me wrong, I do believe that the Bible has some significance in spirituality but, it’s been altered in order to control the masses so we don’t know the “Inner” you and who we really are, which are very powerful beings, the world would be uncontrollable if we all knew how powerful we (our soul’s)are, keeping our soul’s at a high vibration with the earth’s energy is what those who are more spiritual believe.
@Anglican Sounds by "alteration" this ignorant genius means translation...
All translations are noted in the different versions of the Bible. So you can se the difference. Good “spirits”, which are the Godly ones don’t call people out their name
If you want to know the truth you have to go back to the original source which is the Torah every religion took from the Torah including Christianity. It’s all in history. If you want to know the truth read the Hebrew bible and learn Hebrew they can’t change a language. Jesus was a Jew. But his real name was not Jesus it was yashua but so much was changed no one will ever know the truth if you don’t research. A lot of stuff that were done we’re called demonic but in actual truth were not. Does anyone ever think we follow a religion that outed so many people and forced people to become Christian. Yet yashua who we call Jesus was a Jew. Everything is a lie whatsoever is in the dark shall be brought to light. I’m with Yashua/Jesus all day long i no longer consider myself a Christian but a Jew.
Your sould apparently isn't high enough to see the truth.
What about freakiness in your home
I don't think you should be talking about stuff that you don't know anything about.
Everything white man wah explain
Sage does Not get rid of evil spirit the word of God does, its a pagan Occult practice, definitively Not for Christian, bind evil spirits in Jesus Name, l think you should give a hard & fast reply ~luke warm people not loved by our Father.
Your God threw off the hill last god before him and that god did the same to the one before and so on and so on. What makes your belief any more valid then someone elses?
Everyone is loved by the father. He hates the sin, not the sinner. He died for everyone. Even the most wicked. He loves everyone. You are wrong about that part.
