I'm guessing it was sold to you as physical therapy for anxiety relieve or some much thing. That's how I was led to try it, but God was gracious to lead me away from it right away. After listening to this I'm appalled at just how serious my mistake was.
First time I've ever heard Mike Shreve teach, and this is the best exposure of yoga I've ever heard. The problem with most Christian expositors who talk about Hinduism is that they can tell something is wrong there, but their attempt to describe what's wrong often sounds like prejudice, ignorance, and projection mixed in with imagination. This man has learned enough about it by experience to really point out and critique the right things the right way.
2 Cor. 11:14 "satan himself transforms himself into an angel of light". Super deceptive. I had it . Got delivered. Thanks to Jesus and others in the know.
So many Christians who do Yoga are defensive when you suggest researching this practice. I wish they would defend the gospel as whole heartedly as they defend their practice of Yoga! Yet the churches keep telling them it's "OK" 🙇♀️
Gospel means good news. It is the good news that Jesus died on the cross as the ultimate sacrifice for our sins, so that we could be reconciled to a Holy God. When we confess our sins and accept Jesus as our Lord & Savior, He is faithful and true to forgive us and welcome us in to God's holy family as adopted sons and daughters.
I have also experienced the white light awakening. Very deeply deceptive portrayal of pleasure. I thank God for revealing that it will never satisfy and only the real God, our Lord Jesus satisfies and we thirst no more.
40:58 You're referencing 1 Corinthians 10. But in 1 Corinthians 8, Paul also seems to think that eating food sacrificed to idols is ok if you have a strong conscience and are not causing a weaker brother to stumble. I think in chapter 10, he is coming against actually participating in the sacrificial ritual, since it's contrasted with breaking bread in the Christian sacrament of Communion. Some (SOME!) of these poses have good muscle stretching benefits. If you are not knowingly participating in Yoga as a spiritual practice or to invoke deities, is this only a matter of conscience? If your conscience does not permit you to stretch in such a way because all you can think about is a pagan deity, then don't do it. And don't cause a brother to stumble. Whatever does not proceed from faith is sin. (Romans 14:23) Otherwise, is it not purely a healthy muscle stretch? Is this what's going on here? I've done the cat-cow stretch for my back before in ignorance. It was a helpful stretch, and I didn't learn it from a Yoga teacher in a class. What should I do? Do I need deliverance?
Blows my mind how professing Christians justify their practicing of yoga. I've tried warning them but they don't have ears to hear. Makes me wonder if they have the Holy Spirit - or are just cultural or religious "Christians"...
I very much appreciate these guys’ take on spiritual realities bc they don’t call everything a demon. Does anyone know if they have ever spoke about entering Chinese temples, whether they be Buddhist, Tao, or a folk religion? We are going on a vision trip to explore being missionaries in Taiwan and there are three tours through temples planned - praying through temples, not participating. My question is if even entering a temple should not be done, if that in itself is participating and should not be done so as to not be demonized. My husband says we’re bringing light in and we need not fear demons, but I know Ken Fish has delivered many people from innocently touring these places. Please help guys! My husband and I greatly value your balanced opinion. Or if anyone knows where to look…
Older Comment and not who you wanted but my family were missionaries in Romania for about 18 years or so and there are many orthodox churches, monasteries, and such and I can say with confidence any place where worship occurs outside of worship in truth to God are very dark and spiritually oppressive and shouldn't be messed with unless you REALLY feel God is leading you that way. That said though the only way a demon can demonize you is if you have a door open so to speak, such as active repeated sin ( porn, gambling, etc), knowing participation in witchcraft, or certain traumas ( such as SA). You can not get demonized from just walking through a temple but realize that is their terf so to speak so I would suggest like I said only going in temples if you are sure God wants you to. A good book on the subject of demonization and deliverance as a whole is 'Pigs in the Parlor' by Frank and Ida Mae Hammond. God Bless.
Brother Mike has a special place in my life. He spoke a word over me in the early 2000’s in our church with his dear friend Rev. Charles Davis. He saw the mantle falling on me as with Elisha. My grandfather was Pastor at that time and Many things transpired after that day. Rev. Davis would go on to Pastor another church and I would end up succeeding him after his passing and in 2019 came back to my home church to Pastor. Brother Mike is often in my thoughts and prayers and I’m so thankful for how God has used him and his message.
We want people to fully experience the reality, experience and scriptural Truth of Messiah Jesus! If you love yoga then be honest and ascribe to the pantheistic religion. It’s like people think the spiritual world is a buffet where they choose a little bit of this a little bit of that no my dear friends. Christianity had its own contemplative meditation mystical traditions rooted in history with solid theology. All our joy and fulfillment is found in Christ!! ““If it is disagreeable in your sight to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves today whom you will serve: whether the gods which your fathers served which were beyond the River, or the gods of the Amorites in whose land you are living; but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”” Joshua 24:15
I would like to see you interview Michelle Thielen, founder of YogaFaith. She has nothing to do with Holy Yoga. Based on reviews from other Christians, the founder of Holy Yoga does indeed need healing. I appreciate Mike’s experience, but not everyone who does yoga for exercise subscribes to Eastern philosophy or even understands it. I know he said Christians shouldn’t even go to a yoga class, but what about being the salt and light of the world? Anyway, I think you have much more to explore here.
I had an encounter with a woman who was in the esoteric. I told her, I just want to introduce Jesus to her. She allowed me to pray for her. I invited Jesus to reveal himself to hear and she had a divine encounter.
There is a new false teaching out there connecting the Lords name with the sound of a breath. Please check out the teaching by Dr Michael Brown on this
@@paulral I heard that “ha-Shem” is connected to the sound of a sneeze. This is apparently why we cannot keep our eyes open because no man can see God and live.
The adjective “counterfeit” may not be helpful I like the word deceitful why? Because I do believe it is a very real spiritual encounter , yet deceitful because it is luring one on another path on trajectory towards death and destruction and away from the way the path of Messiah Jesus
I appreciate what you guys are doing and I enjoy watching your videos, but I have to play the devil's advocate. What about physical therapy? I have heard that physical therapy borrows from yoga poses for some of its stretches. Does this mean that people who don't believe in any of this stuff are getting demonized by going through physical therapy? Does the Bible really teach that we can ignorantly worship pagan gods by inadvertantly doing something that is demonic in a pagan religion? I wonder how many things we ignorantly do that are or used to represent a ritual of some pagan religion. But it is still useful to know the connection of yoga with Hinduism. Thanks for the interview guys!
Thanks - To be clear, we're not talking about physical therapy or stretching. We're talking about people who are practicing yoga and using yoga positions that are designed to communicate the story of and worship to a pagan god.
Christians use Hebrews 9:27, which states, “Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment.” As the reason to not believe in reincarnation. Everything else are just bad arguments against reincarnation. Most Jews belive in reincarnation. Early Christian’s had reincarnation beliefs. But then they said no more 😂
Under this logic putting a Christmas tree up in celebration of the birth of Jesus is sinful because it once upon a time was used for pagan worship and likewise “told a story.” As Kuyper famously said: “There is not a square inch in the whole domain of our human existence over which Christ, who is Sovereign over all, does not cry, Mine!” That includes yoga, fellers.
@@JadDragon Yoga is not a simple stretching exercise in the same manner that the lord's supper is not a community feast. Yoga, when properly done, invokes spirits . It's possible to use a gun to scratch one's back. However, this doesn't make the gun a back scratcher.
@@Ashwin2584 yes it is unless YOU bring more to it. "Properly" done is entirely up to what your intentions are. Stop pretending there's only one form of yoga and all are doing it l. It is not demonic to stretch just because someone 3000 years ago said this stretch was demon worship. Stop it.
@@JadDragon Yoga by definition is a spiritual method used to come into union or yoke with the universe/God. Physical movements are a part of this practise, not the whole. If you like doing stretches .. do stretches and call it stretches. There are a lot of ways to exercise out there.

@@TheRemnantRadio It is impossible to play an ouija board without attempting to communicate with evil spirits. That’s the whole point of it. Conversely, It is not impossible to do yoga stretches, poses, sequences etc. without worshipping pagan gods. The average American grinding out “yoga” day during P90x is doing nothing more than trying to build muscle, flexibility, balance, etc. Better examples include eating meat that was once upon a time used as a sacrifice to idols. Or decorating an evergreen tree in December, which was historically done by various pagan groups to (1) ward off evil spirits, (2) tell a story that green plants would grow again when the “sun god” was strong and summer would return, and (3) memorialize the Egyptian “god” Ra’s recovery from illness …. until German Christians restructured the tradition to celebrate the mightyness of Christ.
that’s like saying “my truth” and “your truth” only the objective reality of what you are participating in matters. what you subjectively intend is irrelevant
Imagine being a Christian and thinking Christ's sacrifice was so meaningless, that merely stretching could undo its power over your life. This is why Paul says it's not for his clear conscience he might not eat something, but to help a weaker brother. Let it sink in. Weaker.
We're not saying it takes away your salvation. We're saying don't give the devil any opportunity to get a foothold in your life. Same as in Ephesians 4:26-27. If the devil can get a foothold when we go to bed angry, how much more so when we engage in poses designed to communicate the story of and worship to a false god?
@christylynnhogan Show me with the Bible why my name and profile picture are evil and demonic please. Having a name you don't like doesn't make me the devil's advocate.
@christylynnhogan I didn't name myself "Dragon" after Satan, I named myself after the Dragonzord from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Dragons exist outside the Bible. Serpents in the Bible exist outside of Satan. Wait till you look into Seraphim, the dragon like heavenly beings serving God faithfully (See the Bible Project for more).
@christylynnhogan Jesus and Satan are both called lions, that doesn't mean Jesus is named after Satan or vice versa. My picture and name aren't automatically demonic just because you don't like them. No form of evil here. I'm not twisting Scripture. Show me what I twisted and how please.
@ChristineLynnForTheWin it's a fun kids show about heroes beating up monsters. If it's about fallen angels, they're fighting the fallen angels. Please pray for discernment.
Its amazing how people can still think they'll accidentally worship a demon because they stretch in certain position. Modern yoga is nothing like what is being talked about. It's just exercise. As long as your conscience is clear, you aren't sinning doing yoga for health. Just like you don't accidentally sin eating meat sacrificed to a false god. I really wish Christians would listen to the Bible more in cases like this, and not use rare anecdotal reports instead. Fear less, love more. Jesus lives ♥️ and is God 🙏🏻 Christ ✝️ and King 👑
I’m even MORE convinced it is western ignorance and “white washing” that has resulted in the perspective of yoga that you hold. We lack discernment and say discerning people are just filling others with fear when in reality they’re just forcing us to look at the things we do with intentionality and purpose.
I’m sure if we told people there’s an unseen virus that can spread through breathing back in the day before people understood viruses they would accuse you of “fear mongering”. We cannot remove spiritual meaning from everything just because we believe we can just because we say so. We cannot say something isn’t there just because we do not see it. No one here is scared of anything, we’re wanting to be wise and not neglect the world is more spiritual than anything else! Paul even says so!
@@tookie36 The Bible does in fact seem to tell us these pagan gods are demons. "What do I imply then? That food offered to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything? No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons. Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?" (1 Cor 10:20-22) We understand that there are those of other religions that say similar about us and our faith, it is their right though we disagree. We must care more about pleasing God than practitioners of religions we believe to be false should we not? That is the same answer many of other faiths would tell you too. There is no malice meant it.
@@littleboots9800 so the Pagans of Paul’s time have the same philosophy, theology, practices of all those who practice “Yoga”. Do you understand how incorrect that thinking is? To call anyone, to call any practice “demonic” its best to be Christ, or Paul, or at least know precisely what you’re talking about or you are in fact speaking horrible words. And unfortunately Remnant Radio and others have no idea what they are talking about and instead of investigating other souls with good faith they demonize and try to colonize others. As if 1000s of years of spiritual practices outside of Abraham bore no fruit? God only created the Christian creation good and everywhere else is a godless wasteland? What a twisted worldview and very unbiblical
He did an excellent job of explaining what yoga is and what it represents to the Christian. Any other spirit or religion that is not rooted in Jesus Christ is not of God. If you think all religions are good then I guess it makes sense that you think this is hateful. To call another persons god a demon seems mean. But in reality there is only one God and there is one truth. Whether that has emotional value being “hateful” is how emotionally invested you are in it. Muslims and Jews have the same thought. There is only one God and other gods are false in their religion. These are common beliefs. Even now in Hinduism in India there is major persecution of any non-Hindus because they believe their religion is the only way! The killing of innocents by Hindu radicals is true evil! Expressing disbelief and disagreement with the ideas presented in Hinduism is a personal right and it can be challenged. And yes… done with a smile.
God I’m sorry for my ignorant participation in yoga years ago. Forgive me in Jesus Christ. Amen
If we confess, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
I'm guessing it was sold to you as physical therapy for anxiety relieve or some much thing. That's how I was led to try it, but God was gracious to lead me away from it right away. After listening to this I'm appalled at just how serious my mistake was.

Serpents in the Bible exist outside of Satan. Wait till you look into Seraphim, the dragon like heavenly beings serving God faithfully (See the Bible Project for more).
@christylynnhogan Jesus and Satan are both called lions, that doesn't mean Jesus is named after Satan or vice versa.
My picture and name aren't automatically demonic just because you don't like them. No form of evil here.
I'm not twisting Scripture. Show me what I twisted and how please.
@ChristineLynnForTheWin it's a fun kids show about heroes beating up monsters.
If it's about fallen angels, they're fighting the fallen angels.
Please pray for discernment.
Its amazing how people can still think they'll accidentally worship a demon because they stretch in certain position.
Modern yoga is nothing like what is being talked about. It's just exercise.
As long as your conscience is clear, you aren't sinning doing yoga for health. Just like you don't accidentally sin eating meat sacrificed to a false god.
I really wish Christians would listen to the Bible more in cases like this, and not use rare anecdotal reports instead. Fear less, love more.
Jesus lives ♥️ and is God 🙏🏻 Christ ✝️ and King 👑

I promise you, yoga doesn't own these stretch positions. A 3000 year old story behind a pose doesn't make it real. Stop fear mongering.
Did you watch the video?
I’m even MORE convinced it is western ignorance and “white washing” that has resulted in the perspective of yoga that you hold. We lack discernment and say discerning people are just filling others with fear when in reality they’re just forcing us to look at the things we do with intentionality and purpose.
I’m sure if we told people there’s an unseen virus that can spread through breathing back in the day before people understood viruses they would accuse you of “fear mongering”. We cannot remove spiritual meaning from everything just because we believe we can just because we say so. We cannot say something isn’t there just because we do not see it. No one here is scared of anything, we’re wanting to be wise and not neglect the world is more spiritual than anything else! Paul even says so!
So gross. Way to spread lies and hate. With a smile tho!
No lies, read your bible.
@@josephpchajek2685 the Bible says to misrepresent other people’s philosophies and practices and to dehumanize them calling them demons?
@@tookie36 The Bible does in fact seem to tell us these pagan gods are demons.
"What do I imply then? That food offered to idols is anything, or that an idol is anything? No, I imply that what pagans sacrifice they offer to demons and not to God. I do not want you to be participants with demons. You cannot drink the cup of the Lord and the cup of demons. You cannot partake of the table of the Lord and the table of demons. Shall we provoke the Lord to jealousy? Are we stronger than he?" (1 Cor 10:20-22)
We understand that there are those of other religions that say similar about us and our faith, it is their right though we disagree. We must care more about pleasing God than practitioners of religions we believe to be false should we not? That is the same answer many of other faiths would tell you too. There is no malice meant it.
@@littleboots9800 so the Pagans of Paul’s time have the same philosophy, theology, practices of all those who practice “Yoga”. Do you understand how incorrect that thinking is?
To call anyone, to call any practice “demonic” its best to be Christ, or Paul, or at least know precisely what you’re talking about or you are in fact speaking horrible words.
And unfortunately Remnant Radio and others have no idea what they are talking about and instead of investigating other souls with good faith they demonize and try to colonize others. As if 1000s of years of spiritual practices outside of Abraham bore no fruit? God only created the Christian creation good and everywhere else is a godless wasteland? What a twisted worldview and very unbiblical
He did an excellent job of explaining what yoga is and what it represents to the Christian. Any other spirit or religion that is not rooted in Jesus Christ is not of God. If you think all religions are good then I guess it makes sense that you think this is hateful. To call another persons god a demon seems mean. But in reality there is only one God and there is one truth. Whether that has emotional value being “hateful” is how emotionally invested you are in it. Muslims and Jews have the same thought. There is only one God and other gods are false in their religion. These are common beliefs. Even now in Hinduism in India there is major persecution of any non-Hindus because they believe their religion is the only way! The killing of innocents by Hindu radicals is true evil! Expressing disbelief and disagreement with the ideas presented in Hinduism is a personal right and it can be challenged. And yes… done with a smile.
