Lectio Divinia: What is it, What it is Not, and Should Christians Practice it?

I became concerned when the ladies group at our large church offered a class which included Lectio Divinia as an option for personal Bible study time. Your booklet is thorough and easy to understand. I ordered three copies and keep one in the back of my Bible in case the subject comes up so I can present some accurate information on the subject.

Wake up from the Dead

Jesus said ' Wake up from the dead and Christ shall give you light". It is so sad to see the Church blindly walking into the deceit of occultic spirituality without any thought of the consequences or the author of it. Wake up church!!!

Lectio Divina

The NZ Bible Society handed out 10,000 free copies of The Field Guide to the Bible at Easter camps this year (2018). The 108-page book has a section on Hearing God Through the Bible. I have just seen this book for the first time and it is horrendous. The ways to hear from God include imagining (including imagining Jesus sitting in a chair next to you and ask Him Questions), keeping a journal where you can write God questions, then write a response beginning with, "Today, I am saying to you..." and keep writing as if from God. But there is also a page on Lectio Divina and how to practice it There are other bad things in the book too. I am horrified that so many New Zealand youth have been exposed to these things. And to make things worse, many of the young people at these camps are not saved. Satan is really working up a big attack on young people and children. I am thankful to Lighthouse Trails for producing this booklet.

Lectio Divina: What is it, What it is Not, and Should Christians Practice it?

This was the first time I had actually read what Lectio Divina is all about. The contents of the booklet provided enough information to alert me to the dangers of this practice. Lectio Divina is NOT the Biblical way to study God's Word. It is just one more Eastern-mystical way to go into a altered state of consciousness and 'hear' strange messages for spirit beings. Very dangerous indeed.
