    Help me understand Biblically what went wrong..

    It was an exception and not a rule. It was my first 7 day fast. I don’t think that a measure of set apart devotional time was the problem in and of itself, but I do appreciate you sharing your thoughts.

    Help me understand Biblically what went wrong..

    I believe I was born again yet I always walked with a limp in the areas regarding security because I wrestled hard for years with blasphemous thoughts after accepting Jesus. It came on me all at once when I started reading my Bible. When I accepted Him it was like I could see and feel the...

    Furthermore I would add that I don’t believe this to be born of any mental health issues. I was of a clear and sober mind as I went into this. My self examinations have been honest and critical. I did not mention here because it wasn’t relevant, but when these experiences began they came upon...

    No. I was not on drugs or alcohol. I repented and turned from that lifestyle long ago. It’s been 14 years since my conversion and experimenting with the DMT. This experience was born entirely of fasting and praying. I shut myself away from my wife and kids and basically prayed 7 days straight.

    Since I mentioned my views on interpretation and ended up in the opposite direction; I want to describe that a bit as well how that came to be. I took a particular interest in Old Testament typology for a bit. I found the symbolic types of Christ particularly fascinating. There are many...

    Help me understand Biblically what went wrong..

    Sure. About 14 years ago at the age of 23 I I came to faith in Jesus after dabbling in what I now know is witchcraft. I had a terrifying experience with a hallucinogen DMT and fled to the Bible afterwards. I came slowly because It was just me and a Bible. I couldn’t give a date, but there was...

    Hi all. I joined this forum recently in search of understanding of what happened to me and if it can be remedied. I tend to get long winded when I try to type this out so I will try my best to keep my statements concise as I can I fell from a solid Biblical walk into mysticism, trusting...

    I had a mystical experience that has damaged my faith. Seeking prayer.

    So I don’t know if I articulated this very well, but I am waking up every night having this weird pulsating feeling in my body. When it first started around the time of the incident, I was waking up weeping heavily and my entire body was trembling. It was some sort of spiritual thing, and...

    I had a mystical experience that has damaged my faith. Seeking prayer.

    I have struggled with this allot in my walk. I don’t know if you have read John Bunyon’s “ Grace abounding to the chiefest of sinners” but it deals heavily with the wretched thoughts life of the flesh. It tortured me for the first 3 years of my faith. Eventually the experience made me a very...

    I had a mystical experience that has damaged my faith. Seeking prayer.

    Thanks. I have heard the term from A.W. Tozer before. I can honestly say I have walked in it before, but I can’t say that I am currently. I used to have the word in my heart and be blessed to have it “speak to me” in a sense. That is to say that an appropriate scripture would come to my mind...
