Modern Mysticism

Author: Dave Fiedler - pocket book - 44 pages

“Stay away from non-biblical spiritual disciplines or methods of spiritual formation that are rooted in mysticism such as contemplative prayer, centering prayer, and the emerging church movement in which they are promoted.” —Elder Ted Wilson, General Conference President, July 3, 2010

Why would Elder Wilson issue such a warning? And what dangers might lurk in these spiritual disciplines? This booklet is a look at what we can learn from our own past, and what we are facing today. With limited space we have only scratched the surface, but ample information is readily available to anyone who wishes to delve deeper into the origins and the tendencies of the “new spirituality.”

Not only are some Adventists alarmed, but also other Christians who believe the Bible is the Word of God and “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved” than Jesus Christ (Acts 4:12).

It is love of the Truth, and love for God’s people, that prompts us and many generous supporters to place this booklet in your hands. —the publishers
