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.

They need to drop the *Christian* label if they’re into Eastern Mysticism.

Consider the 12 Jewels of the breastplate —

Ruben: Odem (Ruby/carnelian). Helps childbirth.
Shimon: Pitda (Chrysolite/emerald). Cools body.
Levi: Bareket (Onyx/topaz). Enlightenment.
Judah: Nofech (Malachite/carbuncle). Overpower enemies.
Yissachar: Sapir (Lapis-Lazuli/sapphire). Helps eyesight, healing.
Zevulun: Yahalom (Zircon/diamond). Helps sleep.
Dan: Leshem (Jacinth/zircon).
Naftali: Shvo (Agate). Helps riding.
Gad: Achlamah (Amethyst). Bravery.
Asher: Tarshish (Topaz/aquamarine). Helps digestion.
Joseph: Shoham (Beryl/onyx). Perceived well by all.
Benjamin: Yashpeh (jasper). Helps blood-clotting.

= = =

Just consider that . . .

I am no way equating ‘crystals’ with Biblical gemstones.

Sure, in honor of St.Peter the Rock?

New Agers used to leave crystals, money and food offerings up on top of a mound at a park, sometimes they would even set up a tent and a shrine with an alter.

Used to have to chase them off of it whenever storms came up so they wouldn’t get electrocuted. Lightning hit that mound almost every storm.

Probably so he and the Secret Service won’t disrupt a church’s services every Sunday.

Never heard of Kenneth Copeland.

Lots of televangelists have airplanes. Copeland owns an airport to house his fleet of jets. In addition to some Citations, he has Gulfstream for international flights, a Mitsubishi, and when those can't get the job done, a T-38.

While others preach health and wealth, he shows how it's done.

Yeah. I wish it was someone like Franklin Graham. I do not think such women should give spiritual advice to men. A man’s mother or grandmother on the other hand...

I quit going to Christian book stores when they were selling toe rings by the cash register.

Don’t laugh...

Every computer and cell phone has a quartz crystal inside. Without it they wouldn’t work.
