The Bible Changed My Mind About Crystals

Crystals are often associated with new age healing, so it makes sense that Christians would avoid them at all cost.
But after some recent research, I had a change of thought. And it raised the question....Can Christians have crystals? What I found in the Bible surprised me.

My mom is an amateur geologist. She loves hunting for and collecting all kinds of rocks, gem stones and minerals and has a beautiful collection, all regularly dusted and organized with name plates. I admire the collection each time i stroll past. And yes, crystals too. Natural ones! They're beautiful!! And they have no more power than the petrified wood or marble sitting next to it. God said if mankind did not turn to Him the rocks and trees would cry out to Him. Enjoy those beautiful gem stones and rocks! God create them! 🙌🙏❤️🎺🙌

But you are the devil because you like crystals. The truth is she is lack of soul. This lady is a fraud. She has your money. Take your power back and be a human. I wouldn't want to be a Christian. I was everything I needed to be the moment I was born.

That’s exactly how I feel about them. They come from the earth which God created and they can be enjoyed to look at.

[@ErikaLaGrande]

They have energy stored in them from the time of creation. Like anything, even prayer, they can be used for good or bad. Prayer is bad if you are trying to control an outcome that isn’t meant for the highest good. Prayer harnesses energy, and if some with bad or controlling intention, you summon the will of darkness and not light (God). I own them mostly as jewelry or home decor.

[@JuliaShalomJordan]

One thing to consider when you buy anything from a New Age or Wiccan or Neopagan store is that before things are put on their shelves that are useful for spell magick, they are anointed during rituals to do the work they are set out to do. I know this because I followed Wicca before I renounced it and gave my life to Christ. My only regret is that I gave all of my things away instead of throwing them away. The woman I gave them to could sense all the power that still resided in them. Demons attach themselves to objects.

[@Kris_Reece]

Yes, I certainly did consider that, which is why I was very careful as to the store I entered. It wasn't new age at all. But thank you for sharing your experience. Its not talked about enough.

One thing is that they are actually pizoelectromagnetic which is some scientific term that basically explains how they run our technology (all computers have a quartz crystal in them needed to operate and also even our old school watches), so in fact they still do have “ energy “ but that still doesn’t make them evil.

Amazing explanation! I have felt this way for some time starting working in jewelry for 17 yrs then wanted to have crystals in my home You explained it perfectly! I do get in some incredible conversations about how these were created by a all powerful perfect God and the stone itself holds no power.

Nikola Tesla believed "Crystals are living beings at the beginning of creation." All things have a frequency and a vibration." He also said, “ In a crystal we have clear evidence of the existence of a formative life principle, and though we cannot understand the life of a crystal, it is nonetheless a living being .” Some studies show that crystals have the power to create an electrical charge, therefore, healing properties. ?? What do you think about this?? I believe this to be true. Thank you, God, for the beautiful part of earth we call "Crystals" and everything else beautiful in this world. 🙏🙌🧘❤️

[@sonjaistheone4614]

I am so glad you pointed this out! Most people, especially the speaker here, have only read the Bible about God and no other outside information so they base their teachings only from one perspective! I am an avid reader and have come to realize that everything and everyone has energy, including God! Everything also has an aura as well. Barbara Y. Martin has a very good book on auras and another, Communing with the Divine in which she gives the true meaning of who Jesus was, the difference between the Christ and she goes deep into the many aspects of spiritual hierarchies and angels! It is a superb and in death teaching!

I agree with Nikola Tesla. I don't see it as "mystical powers," but I know that people do use them to block the harmful effects of EMF waves (created by our 5G technology). Most people who use them for these reasons that I'm aware of are also conservative. I agree with what you wrote.

I'm a Christian, had a Godly message dream about a shop., but was unsure what it meant but definitely the feeling of something life changing. Two years later I went to a shop brought crystals for extra empowerment then realised days later it was the same shop in the dream. Concluded to myself that the dream must have been a message of blessing, so continued buying crystals. However, two members of the family thought something didn't sound right as I found myself talking to them and cleansing them. I thought they are fine they are in the bible. Asked crystals for help and YES they came true. Which made me realise that they are truly powerful and real. Many arguments with my husband about them. Decided to fast and pray about an issue. However, when I fasted and prayed God told me to get rid of them. Immediately I wanted them out of my house and succeeded. Yes, don't do things with them but since the wake up call from God, I have never returned to them. It's been 6 years now.

[@taroupriapus9760]

Crystals are made by God himself and are mentioned in the bible many times. Crystals are used by shamans, healers, seers, prophets, witches and occult practitioners for centuries. It's not idolatry or demonic, it's up if HOW you use it, your intentions. A lot of mages and wise men in medieval ages testified the power of crystals. Crystals are just medium/instruments of faith just like using a rosary when asking for divine healing and protection. And mentioning the Bible, remember the Bible was compiled by the church and many parts of it were twisted to align with the church's dogmas and to manipulate the masses. Humanity doesn't revolve on the teachings of the Bible, for example using crystals for metaphysical purposes is popular in Hinduism and Buddhism

[@juliaeaton]

I don't "believe in" stuff like crystals having healing powers - in my head. But my old boss did crystal healing on the side and had a beautiful piece of citrine that I used to hold onto when I was stressed and I felt calmer. Maybe it's placebo effect but doesn't matter, it still works for me :)

[@spirituallysafe]

Crystals are not meant to work for you, they are merely decorative, God's handiwork.. Your boss would have spoke spells of some description of their stones so that is why you felt something "positive." Seek Jesus when you are stressed, stay in His word and keep praying. Peace to you. PS I am an ex crystal healer, mercifully saved 6 years ago.

[@angelaporto5753]

OK, I understand about the scriptural research, and I greatly respect what you do Kris. But what about the need for us to avoid the appearance of evil? Because so many people in New Age, witchcraft and the occult do wear them and use them or try to use them, and as someone pointed out about the Pizoelectromagnetics, there is some power or ability at least to spark something. But, the main point being avoiding the appearance, and not being a stumbling block. As Paul, inspired by the Holy Spirit, wrote "all things are permissible for me, but all things are not profitable. " For instance, I was raised by a practicing witch… So it is still very hard for me to not look at someone wearing those things (just like someone wearing a pentagram) and not think they are involved in trying to usurp power and give credit for it to some thing other than God. In the interest of "come, let us reason together." I also hate religion and legalism, so I'm definitely not coming at it from that angle.

But I’m wondering if the many uses of rocks and minerals bc of their unique physical properties, might have lead to exaggerated myths about their abilities.

There are two sides to every coin as they say A dichotomy of Good and evil Ppl will always twist the truth to sway their way, manipulate to suit their agenda, change the narrative and distort the truth. That's how most myths and legends start such as the campfire boogyman stories as example. It's meant to scare and frighten but is it true ?! We have to use our common sense and wisdom of discernment with the Holy Bible as reference. By living God's way we are on the right path ❣️🙏🏼❣️

The gemstone Emerald related to the tribe of Judah. In revelation John saw the father sitting on the throne that looked like jasper and ruby and encircled by a rainbow that looked like emerald. Some say this represents Christ as he is the lion of the tribe of Judah, son of David, son of God, God himself.

[@pamelastansbury1407]

Yes, I was just talking to someone about this, and our rainbow. Totally agree.

Amen I Was In The New Age For 12 Years I Found Out None Of The Teachings Did AnyThing To Heal me Or Save me Now, I Have Stones In my Home As Representations Of Adonais Creative Beauty I Attribute No Power To Them Thank you For Taking Back Ground !! Shalom 😊

[@spirituallysafe]

I was in new age for 12 years. Personally I don't want crystals in my home because of the heavy link with my past but that is not to say I won't have them as ornaments in the future. God's stones are so beautiful!

I have prayer beads from a project we did with the youth group (made out of pony beads). I used liturgical colors, which keeps me on track with the church season themes as I pray. I'm making myself an upgrade - a grown-up version where I selected gemstone beads (because they're real - like my faith and God's Creation - not plastic). For "ordinary time green", I chose moss agate (looks like growth, right?), and for Christ's death, lava (descended to the dead), etc... The cross has wood beads, and the center of the cross is clear crystal quartz (He is not here, He is risen). I can't wait for my bead order to arrive! 🙂 So glad to hear your take on crystals - I thought about that a lot when I was making my selections. I chose what would be meaningfully aligned to the prayer themes, not what some new age "magic" says about "powers" (does what God created need additional magic?). Thank you for your channel - blessings and peace.

You got it down packed!!

[@Alliecat670]

Thank you for this! We can become so off balance about these things. In and of itself, crystals, rocks, jewels are God created and show his beauty. Thank you for being brave enough to speak truth about this!

[@Lillyofthevali]

I always felt this way about crystals. I love how beautiful and unique they are! I did however get rid of the crystals that I purchased in a store that was selling things of the occult and that were tide to witchcraft. We are being called to take back Gods unique creations!!! No longer living in the oppression of Satans counterfeit falsehoods. Thank you for sharing this message! Glory to God always!!! God bless you.🤍🙏🏾🕊️👑

It's like Aromatherapy. I love the beautiful fragrances and using these oils however, the biggest franchise in the UK that sells aromatherapy also provides tarot and shaman readings as part of their complimentary healing services. She seemed offended when I politely declined and told her I am a Christian, I do not engage in the occult. Yet, oils are mentioned in the bible.

[@Lillyofthevali]

@@calmlife2024 I love aromatherapy as well! I’ve stop burning sage and I am still seeking God’s guidance in how to operate in that regard. I currently only burn the frankincense and myrrh incenses at this time but I’m doing a study into having a better understanding. If someone declines your offer to pray for them, would you be offended? When someone gets upset or offended when you decline anything from prayer, to food and even laying hands on you... It’s VERY telling.

​@@Lillyofthevali When I first became a born again, I bashed everyone on the head who did not follow biblical scripture. All I was doing was deflecting what I did not want to recognize in my own heart. What I needed to do was repent. If somebody didn't want me to pray for them, I would pray with compassion that they turn to Jesus as their Lord and Saviour. If the Lord shows me that they are dabbling in witchcraft, (or using the "law of attraction" on me) I would stand and recite Isaiah. Psalm 91 is prayed morning noon and night anyway. And of course, the Lord's prayer. Then I focus on "be still and know that I am God". ( Psalm 46:10) However, if I feel that extra focus is needed on the word of God, I always listen to a sermon by Dr Charles Stanley kzbin.info/www/bejne/qF6cfWVjlruFaqs and a good bible teaching church. As for sage, I use a sage blended oil. I find it rich and comforting.

[@Lillyofthevali]

@@calmlife2024 Thank you for sharing these scriptures. I agree that there’s no need to force anything on people. Understanding that praying that God’s will be done in their lives is sometimes all that God is calling us to do for others.

[@Lillyofthevali]

@@calmlife2024 I noticed that when I was called I was definitely battling demons. I repented and I learned to stop willfully sinning. I make mistakes but I learn a lot quicker than I use to. God really delivered me while I was in search of Him and His Kingdom. We can be free from these disembodied, demonic spirits. Glory to God! Finding my identity in Christ Jesus and walking in His will has changed me completely. No judgement, just prayer that others choose to follow Yeshua! Many are called but few are chosen Matthew 22:14. Armor up chosen ones. I am learning that the chosen don’t battle demons… we slay them!!! Glory to God!!! God bless you!

Whatever do you mean,,,,? Yes I love raw gems

[@ceceliapadgett9882]

I bought a ring pink Crystal ring from the hospital that I was working at few years back. The first time I wore it to church, I had my hands up and worshipping in song to the Lord Jesus. My finger started tingling the one with the ring on it. I was kind of scary .. the time I wore it to church it shocked my finger.....😮. so I learned about crystals back then in the 90s. So I put it to the test. I prayed against witchcraft connected to it. I prayed about it.... so I got rid of it. Be led by the Holy Spirit about matters with crystals and if people give it to you and you're not sure its origin or connected with witchcraft. they're into something else get rid of it. Rather be safe then sorry later.❤

[@carolynking9421]

I totally believe and rejoice in that you too can now fully enjoy the beauty of Gods creation. Bless you Kris for your honesty.

[@cleag8533]

Me too I’m done cause it’s Living In Fear instead of the Holy Spirit 💜💜❤️🩷💙❤️🧡

[@johnmumford7841]

Amen. Bang on. Thank you

[@QueenLadyQ]

[@allanfischer9417]

Makes a lot of sense the way you explain it.

[@michaelp8856]

[@mistav2218]
