Kabbala occult? | Alexandra | Wednesday, November 28, 2012 |
Question: Hi brother Ignatius, after going through your site i have 1 question left. During my 4 month of guidance by an evil spirit and before i turned to Jesus and then got attacted mentaly badly i was tempted to buy all this strange books, like Reiki and new age stuff. I also was tempted to buy a book about Kabballa.I could not find it on your list of sins in the 7 steps and also the German guy with his anti new age site could not answer me. All i can tell you is that i only paged through this book and it was extremly scary, like advices to practice magic and i got rid of it very quick because my rest common sense told me that it is extremly dangerous, even if the pictures looked sacred. It is also playing God in my eyes and i saw in the net also becoming quite popular. Was my inner voice right ?I still think it was but may be you know better.

Question Answered by Bro. Ignatius Mary, OMSM(r)
Dear Alexandra: Your instincts are correct. The Kabbala is an ancient form of ancient Jewish esoteric discipline and school of thought, and mysticism. It can be considered a Jewish occult philosophy. Christians ought to avoid the Kabbala. It is not consistent with Christian thought and theology. Your inner voice was correct. See the Catholic Encyclopedia for more information.
