They say they’re Christians and are not occultists. Nor, he says, are they witches. Her husband, she swears, isn’t a warlock.

But this Chesapeake couple does sell crystals, intended to help customers heal — their bodies, their auras — physically and metaphysically.

Chris and Lindsey Thornhill own and operate Love and Crystals, marketing it specifically as a Christian crystal store and gift shop.

What a find! Thanks for posting. Between these crystals and Kenneth Copeland prayers (500dollars a pop), I’ll live to be 200 years old.

A woman named Susan Brinkman wrote Learn To Discern Compendium: Is it Christian or New Age? and she has a weekly spot on the Catholic network EWTN on a “Wacky Wednesday” segment discussing ways in which Ouija boards, crystals, meditation chants, yoga and other things seem innocuous but open places of contact for the demonic to enter our plane of existence. Worst is ouija boards. Crystals are supposed to contact the universal energy which is an alternative to prayer and trust in God.

One of the few things my late mother in law was right about. She tried calming sessions by the local followers of the Maharishi’s Transcendental Meditation after first asking several times asking for assurances they would not indulge in any idolatry or the occult. She was firmly against idolatry.
Sure enough, after a few sessions they were told to go into the next room where there was a big portrait with curtains on the sides and an altar set up with candles to chant praises to the Maharishi.

She was out of there.

There is a “Unity” church around the corner from me. They have all the mystical stones and amulets for sale.

Copeland and President Trump’s personal minister and head of his White House Faith Office are close and cooperative.

You haven’t missed anything except a conman pretending to be a preacher

Someone told him he needed one. She is more like Rasputin than a woman of God

Who is it? He made it pretty clear he doesn’t need that, and he doesn’t ask for forgiveness, etc.

He also created The White House Faith Office and made her head of it.

‘You’re going to get a vision!’ Televangelist Paula White promises spiritual results in exchange for donations up to $2,000 in sermon quid-pro-quo after Donald Trump hires her for White House post
“A Florida televangelist who has taken a job in Donald Trump White House said in a sermon on Sunday that Christians who give money to her ministry will receive life-clarifying ‘visons’ from God.
Paula White has been close to the president since at least 2002, and she says the pair once planned to open a megachurch together. She preaches the ‘Prosperity Gospel,’ which says giving money to churches and religious causes brings health and wealth.”
