Really, Christian mystics saying that their "teachers" are the mediators. Doesn't the apostle Paul teach "For there is only one God and one Mediator who can reconcile God and humanity--the man Christ Jesus." - 1tim 2:5

You can call yourselves mystics, but if you will call yourselves Christian you should at least know basic tenets and teachings of the faith.

Now granted this is my understanding, if you have reason to teach other mediators please present them.

@Mirkwood90 Every Priest is a mediator between God and people and are ordained for such purpose. they work for the same God.

I posted this a moment before but it didn't show up so this might end up being a double post.

Thank you for this video. This is the second one from you I've watched and I think mysticism is defined but what are the methods?

I am also curious about what is a non-denominational priest and what is the nature of clergy in Christian mysticism?

Often I know what is right but I don't want what is right and want what is not right (selfishness). Can mystical experience affect my heart in this?

[ruach2351]

When a person knows the feeling of acting in ways that are in tuen with their soul, they feel better, more whole. It takes discipline and deciding to not do those selfish things anymore. It takes work to transform oneself. Real mstical experience changes your heart completely.

Real priests are mediators between God and human beings. Some people think that unnecessary, but look around at how crazy people are. YOu will see they need real priests more than ever in history.

Thank you for this video. So it has been somewhat defined, what are the methods?

What is a non-denominational priest? What is the nature of clergy in regards to mystical experience?

Often I know what the right thing is, but often I do not want the right thing. Too often I want the wrong thing. Would mysticism, a true experience of God, change this?

A non-denominational priest is one who is not trained or ordained in any of the traditional religious institutions. The mystical path involves a student-teacher relationship where the teacher guides your spiritual exercises and practices. The teacher demonstrates the qualities the student is striving for.

pax et bonum!

Thank you for talking about real christianity!

[pathWithHeart]

or sufism for that matter... the three are united at the root

[TainoRebelde]

A "non-denominational priest" is a self-made 'priest' unto himself, and not a minister of the Gospel and a representative of Christ to the body of Christ.

Simply, a farce.

[willyrobinson]

well I had a mentor teach me: firstly Protestantism, secondly the Israel Identity (British Israel), thirdly mysticism & ariosophy.

was he a priest? not quite. teachers are fine, but direct communion with the All-father is possible through the Intermediary which is Jesus who is the Christ.

[Gnostic2030]

"wrong the so called christain's are fakes liers and the Jewish-Christain Mystics are holy men and women in the eyes of the Archangels and G-d how's name is El and The Virgin Mother Mary is our Queen of the Sabbath and our Lady of the Rosry!" Yeshua wanted there to be one church in his name not 1000's you do not know his teachings you only think you do. Yeshua is Jesus and will always be Yeshua our lord and holy son of god may we be blessed by the Torah and Cross.

whats the difference between Christian Mysticism and the Kabbalah? i know one is christian and one is jewish but what else?

[CallmeCalifornia]

This is what I've been searching for!

[elvismilk]

yeah more like Aaron with golden calves so jews can execute them. Jehovah forsake the Jews and Christian don't believe for a minute that he won't forsake you too.
