Exploring the Dangers of Lectio Divina and Mysticism

Exploring the Dangers of Lectio Divina and Mysticism

⏱️ Estimated Reading Time: 2 min read

Christian meditation apps, such as Dwell, contain unbiblical and potentially spiritually dangerous methods such as Lectio Divina, breathwork, ecumenism, and monastic mysticism. Doreen Virtue compares audio clips of her pre-salvation new age meditations to the meditations on Dwell, so you can hear the similar hypnotic induction techniques.

Here’s a good Bible app to download for FREE right now. The app has an audio feature and timer that allows you to listen to the Bible: ESV Bible Apple IOS https://apps.apple.com/us/app/esv-bible/id361797273
