What is Mysticism? What is Christian Mysticism? Is it compatible with the Gospel? Or does it teach a different path to God?

In this episode we look at what Christian Mysticism teaches about the nature of God, the nature of man, the nature of sin, and the nature of salvation and compare it to the Gospel.

Is it truly Christian and what are the dangers to Christian women should they go down the mystic path?

May this episode expose the false teaching entering the church and bring glory to God.

Teachers of Spiritual Formation inform Christians that implementing certain disciplines will help know God, experience Him, and hear His voice. They teach that these practices will help us grow spiritually because we become more intimate with God through them; that by them we "restore" our relationship with God.

But is this all true? Does Scripture teach that we need these disciplines to become intimate with God and do we grow spiritually by practicing them?

And what might happen to a woman's faith in Christ and His word if she decides to trust that these will bring her to into a deeper relationship with God and "enjoy Jesus"?

At the 2020 IF:Gathering Conference Sadie Robertson Huff was assigned to give a message on Romans 8:39. In the message she urges women to keep themselves from getting distracted by "turning" to observe what God is doing in other people's lives. That, instead, they should be focusing on what God is doing in their lives. Why? Because God is building their testimony, and their testimony has the power to change hearts. Is this true? Do our testimonies have power? Is John 21 informing us that "turning" to ask Jesus what He is doing in other people's lives will cause us to "miss out" on "the reckless love God is chasing us" with? Does Scripture warn us against this?

Is even what Romans 8:39 is about?

May this episode expose the false teaching entering the church and bring glory to God.
