 Who Holds the Universe Together: God or Life Force?

The Holy Bible says God "made the world and all things therein," and that "in him we live, and move, and have our being." (Acts 17:24, 28)

It is the Spirit of life from God who gives life:

And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them. (Revelation 11:11)

New Agers/occult healers teach that it is in Life Force energy that we live, and move and have our (well) being:

Ki is the life force. It is also called the vital life force or the universal life force. This is the nonphysical energy that animates all living things. As long as something is alive, it has life force circulating through it and surrounding it; when it dies, the life force departs.

New Agers regard Life Force as the nonphysical, intelligent energy that animates (give life to) all living things:

Ki -- The Life Force
Ki means the same as Chi in Chinese, Prana in Sanskrit and Ti or Ki in Hawaiian. It has also been called, odic force, orgone, and bioplasma. It has been given many other names by the various cultures that have been aware of it.
Ki is the life force. It is also called the vital life force or the universal life force. This is the nonphysical energy that animates all living things. As long as something is alive, it has life force circulating through it and surrounding it; when it dies, the life force departs. If your life force is low, or if there is a restriction in its flow, you will be more vulnerable to illness. When it is high, and flowing freely, you are less likely to get sick. Life force plays an important role in everything we do. It animates the body and also is the primary energy of our emotions, thoughts and spiritual life.
The Chinese place great importance on the life force or what they call Chi. They have studied it for thousands of years and have discovered there are many different kinds of Chi. The "Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine" which is over 4,000 years old, lists thirty-two different kinds of Chi or Ki.
Ki is used by martial artists in their physical training and mental development. It is used in meditative breathing exercises called Pranayama, and by the shamans of all cultures for divination, psychic awareness, manifestation and healing. Ki is the nonphysical energy used by all healers. Ki is present all around us and can be accumulated and guided by the mind.

Occult healers regard "Life Force" as intelligent life energy:

"...the intelligent life energy that heals cuts and bruises and many other physical and psychological disorders..."

 (Quote source: Prana, Qi, Life Force http://www.integrativepsychology.com/PranaQiLifeForce/Prana

QiLife1.html)

May the reader stop and consider the fact that any "energy" that is living and intelligent is alive. Energy is not alive. Energy is force; the capacity to do work. Any "energy" that is alive is a living being. What kind of living being can heal cuts and bruises in response to occult methodologies? (Demons) 

 

Who Holds the Universe Together? God or Life Force Energy?

The Bible teaches that by Jesus Christ all things consist (are held together in a fixed or permanent state):

And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. Colossians 1:17

Lena Johansson, author of Reiki A Key to Your Personal Power, teaches that quantum physicists believe subtle energies (another word for Life Force Energy) have an intelligence of their own and hold the universe together:

Quantum physicists of today are showing considerable interest in the subtle energies creating the subatomic particles. The entire universe is made of atoms, including everything around and inside us. Subatomic particles, that vibrate at an incredible speed, circulate within and around the atoms. Some physicists think that these particles have an intelligence of their own. These particles vibrate at a very high frequency, and scientists call them "the glue of the universe."

"Without this fantastic energy system the entire universe would collapse and nothing would look as it does today." (1) [bold emphasis added.]

Reiki healers often claim that Life Force Energy (ki, qi, chi, subtle energy, etc.) is power from God. This is not true because the power of God cannot be manipulated (or sold) by human beings. It is demonic powers that can be manipulated and directed by human beings.

 

God Holds the Universe Together

New Agers/occult healers believe and teach that "Life Force Energy" (this is one of many euphemisms for demons/devils) animates and sustains all living things.

The Holy Bible reveals the truth. God holds the universe together:

And he [Jesus Christ] is before all things, and by him all things consist. Colossians 1:17
