There are millions of people, who visit an acupuncturist and participate in acupuncture. According to the Western world, acupuncture treatment is a way of alternative medical treatment. It happens regularly that physicians and psychologists refer people to an acupuncturist for the treatment of a physical or mental health problem. But is acupuncture safe and beneficial or is acupuncture dangerous and occult and are there negative side effects of acupuncture? Should Christians participate in acupuncture or not? What does the Bible say about acupuncture? What is the spiritual danger of acupuncture that many people are not aware of
What’s the origin of acupuncture?
Acupuncture probably exists for more than 2500 years. That means that acupuncture already existed before Jesus Christ came to this earth. Acupuncture is part of traditional Chinese medicine, just like massages (tui na), cupping, Qigong (movements), Chinese herbal therapy, and nutrition.
Since the bronze age, acupuncturists have used metal needles for the practice of acupuncture. Before the bronze age, acupuncturists probably used bone fragments and stones.
Acupuncture originates from traditional Chinese philosophy. The two main streams within Chinese philosophy/religion are ‘Daoism’ (Tao, or Taoism) and ‘Confucianism’. Acupuncture originates from Taoism.
What is Taoism?
Taoism is very complex and comprehensive, that’s why I will only provide a short overview. Taoism believes in a spiritual realm and a natural realm and emphasizes living in harmony with the Tao. Tao means ‘the way’, the stream of the universe, or in other words the power (energie, chi, qi) behind the natural order. It indicates the source and the power behind everything that exists. Taoism contains both philosophical and religious elements.
The Chinese philosopher and writer Laozi is considered the founder of traditional Taoism. Laozi (The name Laozi means old master) was a believer and practitioner of transcendental meditation.
Laozi lived during the time of Confucius (551-479 BCE) between the 6th and 5th century BCE (during the Zhou Dynasty). Although some scholars argue that Laozi was a legendary god. Oricum, Laozi was considered the superior (profesor) of Confucius. Because Confucius visited and inquired Laozi several times about certain matters.
The old philosopher wrote a book, called ‘Laozi’. This book was a classic of Chinese literature. In due time the name of the book has been changed to ‘Daode Jing’ or ‘Tao-te-ching’, care înseamnă: the classic of the way and virtue.
The philosopher Zhuang, who lived in the 4th century BCE, is considered the founder of the philosophical part of Taoism. He wrote the ‘Zhuangzi’. The ‘Daode Jing’ and the ‘Zhuangzi’ are the most important books in Taoism.
Taoism believes that everything in this world is continuously moving and therefore it is continuously
changing. When you go along with the stream of change, then eventually you will become the perfect man.
What is Taoism’s view on sickness and disease?
Conform taoismului, sickness and disease are caused by a disruption of the balance system ‘yin and yang’. Yin and yang are opposite powers (elements) that complement each other and make together one whole; light and darkness, life and death, positive and negative, etc.
What is acupuncture and how does acupuncture work according to Taoism?
Taoism believes in the collaboration of the body and the spirit (care este, in reality, the soul and the body because the spirit of man is death until the spirit is raised from the dead În Hristos, prin puterea Duhului Sfânt).
Through the body flows energy. This energy is called the ‘qi’ or ‘chi’ (Hindus call this energy prana). This energy is free energy and not bound. This ‘qi’ flows through 12 invisible energy lines; channels in the body, that are called meridians.
These 12 channels aka meridians are connected with the organs and functions of the body. These channels are spiritual and not visible (Where this meridians theory comes from is not known. People only found manuscripts of the 11 meridians in the Mawandui Han tombs. During the time of the Yellow Emperor’s canon of medicine, they continued to further develop this meridian theory.
What is the meridian system?
The complete meridian system through which the ‘qi’ flows is called ‘jing lui’ and exists of:
- 12 main meridians (or channels)
- 12 divergent meridians (channels)
- 12 skin zones
- 12 tendino musculair meridians (channels)
- 15 luo vessels
- 8 extra meridians (channels)
When people have health issues or mental issues, it is considered a blockage; a disruption of the energy balance system. This disruption may have been caused by emotional or physical problems. The ‘qi’ can be channelized to improve and create health and balance.
With the use of needles on specific points in the spiritual meridians, the energy will be channeled to repair the energy balance and remove the blockage or disruption in the meridians. Astfel încât, the ‘qi’ can flow again throughout the meridians.
Not only do they use acupuncture as a treatment to resolve disruptions in the meridians, but they also use acupressure, shiatsu (massages), meridian bullets (massage bullets), etc.
What is acupuncture good for?

Vezi tu, that acupuncture can be used for almost every (Sănătate) issue. All you have to do is, go to an acupuncturist, put some needles in your body in the blockages of your ‘invisible channels’, and after a few treatments, your problem is solved.
It all sounds so easy and wonderful, Dar este acest lucru adevărat? Is your problem solved after acupuncture or will your problem become worse or will you experience other problems in your life? Have you ever wondered why so many people feel tired after acupuncture? What is acupuncture fatigue really?
What is the spiritual danger of acupuncture?
The acupuncturist is a believer in Taoism and believes in spiritual meridians and the blockages (disruptions) in these spiritual meridians. But what is the spiritual danger of acupuncture that is hidden from most people? The spiritual danger of acupuncture is that by putting needles in these blockages, the acupuncturist believes in solving these disruptions and repairing and releasing the energy flow (qi) in the body. This is psychic healing. The acupuncturist makes use of supernatural power that derives from demonic forces.
After an Acupuncture treatment, you will feel different. Acest lucru nu este surprinzător, because, through acupuncture treatment, you have opened the door for demonic forces to enter.
You may feel tired after acupuncture or maybe at first, you might experience a positive feeling, but this positive feeling will only be temporary.
După un timp, you’ll feel different in a negative way and experience negative feelings like anxious or depressive feelings.
You should know, that the devil is real and he tries to enter your life as an angel of light and uses his ‘kind’ Slujitorii. He tempts you by making acupuncture look promising, wonderful, peaceful, and hopeful and by hiding the spiritual danger of acupuncture.
But as soon as you fall into the trap of the devil’s lies, the devil enters your life and steals things from you, and causes destruction and eventually death.
For even satan disguises himself as an angel of light (2 Corinteni 11:14)
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy (Ioan 10:10)
What happens when you enter the territory of the devil?
As mentioned in previous articles (adică. What is the danger of Buddha statues?, What is the danger of Reiki? Care este pericolul consultarii spiritelor?) there are only two territories in the spiritual realm: the territory of God (Kingdom of Heaven, the Light) and the territory of the devil (kingdom of the world; întunericul). That’s it. There are no more spiritual territories.
You can be born again and live after the Spirit in obedience to God according to His Word and live in His will and enter the spiritual realm from your spirit or you can live after the flesh in obedience to the devil according to the will of the devil and be led by his words and his spirits (demonic forces) and enter the spiritual realm from your soul.
The power of the soul
The soul contains great power and is difficult to discern from God’s power. Only those, who are born again and discern the spirits and discern good from evil, can discern soulish power (devilish power) from spiritual power (God’s power).
It can be very dangerous to enter the spiritual realm from your soul. De ce? Când intri în tărâmul spiritual din sufletul tău, you will open yourself for demonic forces to enter and take possession of you and your life.
Occultists and spiritists move into the spiritual realm from their souls and use soulish power.
The Bible is God’s Word, written by people inspired by the Spirit of God.
(Eastern) Philosophical and/or religious books are also written by people inspired by spirits. in orice caz, not by the Holy Spirit, but by demonic spirits.
Many philosophers, scientists, and spiritists have opened themselves to channel with these demonic forces to gain insight, cunoştinţe, înţelepciune, si putere.
The more they move into the dark spiritual territory of the devil, and the more they open themselves and give themselves to the devil and evil spirits, the more earthly knowledge, înţelepciune, and power they get. But they don’t know that eventually, they have to pay the price with their lives.
Should Christians do acupuncture or is acupuncture a sin?
Should Christians do acupuncture? Nu, Christians should not visit an acupuncturist and enter the territory of the devil and participate in acupuncture, because acupuncture is dangerous and a sin. When Christians participate in acupuncture they open themselves to things that are not based upon the Bible; Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu, and are not inspired by the Holy Spirit and therefore don’t derive from God, they open themselves for demonic powers to enter.
When Christians go to an acupuncturist and participate in acupuncture, they show by their deed that they believe in the life energy; ‘qi’ or ‘chi’ that created this whole universe.
Instead of considering the spiritual danger of acupuncture, they believe in the spiritual realm and the invisible meridians. Pentru că altfel, they wouldn’t go to an acupuncturist and participate in acupuncture.
When Christians don’t acknowledge the spiritual danger and enter the acupuncture practice and participate in acupuncture, they deny Jesus Christ; Who took all sickness and disease upon Himself, and that by His stripes, they were healed.
Surely He hath borne out griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem Him stricken, smitten of God and afflicted. But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed (Isaia 53:4-5)
By Whose stripes you were healed (1 Petru 2:24)
When Christians don’t acknowledge the danger of acupuncture but do acupuncture, they sacrifice their bodies to demonic spirits
When you believe in Jesus Christ and call yourself a Christian, and go to an acupuncturist, and participate in acupuncture, you deny the perfect work of redemption of Jesus Christ. You don’t believe in His power and the power of the Holy Spirit. But you believe in life energy that has nothing to do with Jesus Christ but has everything to do with the devil and his power.
When you let someone puncture needles in you, you sacrifice your body to demonic spirits. These so-called invisible blockages in the so-called invisible meridians are not being solved. Because the truth is, that they don’t exist! But what you have done is that you believed the lies of carnal man and opened the door for the devil and demonic spirits to enter your life.
You showed God, by participating in acupuncture, that you don’t believe Him; Iehova Rapha. But you believe in Taoism and its philosophy and way of healing, which is inspired by demonic spirits via transcendental meditation (Citeste si: ‘Pericolul meditației‘).
“da, but if I go to an acupuncturist, I always pray and ask God for protection, therefore acupuncture is not dangerous”
Your prayer shall not rise higher than the ceiling of the room. Why do you have to pray for something that is considered good, according to you? Therefore only by you saying that you pray for protection during acupuncture, indicates that acupuncture is not good at all, but evil and dangerous. Acupuncture is a sin and deep down you know that acupuncture is a sin and not right to do.
You decided to go to an acupuncturist, no one forced you to go. Prin urmare, God will not protect you.
God has given you His Word and the power to close spiritual doors and to open spiritual doors, through your actions in the natural realm.
When you don’t acknowledge the spiritual danger of acupuncture and decide to enter the territory of the devil and get involved with his works of darkness, you open the door for demonic spirits to enter your life.
God can’t have communion with darkness. If you decide to have acupuncture, then God removes His protection from you.
You choose to believe the devil and to follow him and get involved in his works, instead of believing in the Word of God and the power of the blood of Jesus and His healing that He has provided for you and standing on His promises.
It’s the same when you decide to go to a dangerous war zone, despite the warnings of the government of your country. As soon as you cross the border and enter the war zone, you will not be protected by your nation or nationality anymore. The soldiers in this war zone consider you their enemy and will attack you, whether you want to or not and despite your intentions.
What are the consequences of entering the territory of the devil?
It is the same in the spiritual realm. Your intentions, findings, Opinii, and your title of Christian will not protect you. You have decided to reject the warnings of the Bible and enter the territory of the devil. Prin urmare, you will bear the consequences of your actions.
God warns His people in His Word. But a lot of people don’t read and study the Bible and therefore they don’t know His Word. Or they are rebellious and know what is written in the Bible, but they won’t listen to His advice and His instructions and don’t follow His advice and instructions. They think they know it better. They think they have a better understanding of good and evil, and what is right and wrong than God has. While God is the Creator of everything that exists! (Citeste si: God gave His Word out of love)
"Da, but I only let them put needles in my body, I don’t believe in Taoism and I don’t get involved with it”
You’re too late! You are already involved with Taoism. You can’t separate acupuncture from traditional Chinese medicine and Taoism. Because acupuncture derives from Taoism.
When Christians approve acupuncture on one condition, anume, that you do not get involved with Taoism, then this is pure nonsense! These Christians who have said this are carnal and have no clue whatsoever about the spiritual realm. These Christians may have a lot of head knowledge of the Bible, a Ph.D., or other religious titles, but that’s it. They are not born again and not spiritual, but they are sensual. They have a carnal mind and are led by the spirits of this world.
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ (Coloseni 2:8)
"Da, but I visit a Christian acupuncturist for acupuncture treatment, therefore the spiritual danger is gone
Christian acupuncturists don’t exist! Next argument…
"Da, but I have been to an acupuncturist and acupuncture really helped me”
For how long? Did you really get rid of all your physical and mental issues? Or have you received worse things in return? Like tiredness, exhaustion, toane, dejection, anxietate, frică, atacuri de panica, insomnie, nightmares, depresie, or other mental health problems or physical issues.
Așa cum a fost scris înainte, acupuncture and all other kinds of Chinese medicine treatments originate from Taoism. It’s spiritually connected and impossible to separate. You can’t separate the spiritual roots from the natural practices and methods, no matter what people, including carnal Christians, zice. (Citeste si: ‘Can you separate the spiritual from Eastern philosophies and practices?‘).
You can’t Christianize acupuncture! You can’t approve of acupuncture by putting the word ‘Christian’ in front of it or by praying during an acupuncture session.
No matter what you do, it doesn’t change anything about the spiritual reality and the spiritual laws, and what truly happens in the spiritual realm.
You can change all kinds of things in the visible natural realm, and use all kinds of excuses and lies to make pagan practices all right, but what happens in the spiritual realm according to the spiritual laws is a fact. (Citeste si: ‘Sosul creștin’)
Acupuncture is and always remains part of Traditional Chinese Medicine, which originates in Taoism, a human philosophy from the darkness. Therefore the spiritual danger of acupuncture remains.
Acupuncture does not derive from God and has nothing to do with Jesus Christ, His blood, and His work of redemption.
Do Christians have the mind of Christ and see the spiritual danger of acupuncture or do they have the mind of the world?
That the Western world doesn’t see the spiritual danger of acupuncture and accepts and uses this kind of alternative healing treatment, is obvious. But a creștin născut din nou, who is a child of the Most High God, has no business in these places, because a child of God has the mind of Christ and sees the spiritual danger of acupuncture.
True born-again Christians, who walk after the Spirit will never set foot over the threshold. Because they discern the spirits and know what is good and evil. They see the spiritual danger of acupuncture and will never compromise and engage with the works of darkness.
What does the Bible say about acupuncture and the spiritual danger?
What does the Bible say about acupuncture? Is acupuncture a sin? Acupuncture is a practice of a pagan religion/philosophy that derives from the darkness. While the yin and yang principle says that opposite or contrary forces complement each other and form one whole (light and darkness, good and evil), the Bible says that light can’t go together with darkness, and good can’t go together with evil. It is either one or the other.
Have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, ci mai degrabă mustrați-i (Efeseni 5:11)
Although the Bible is very clear and says that the children of God should not and have fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness (lumea), many Christians live according to the yin and yang principle.
De-a lungul anilor, Christianity has been defiled and corrupted, by compromising with the world(sistem). Prin urmare, many people who go to church are spiritually blinded and deaf, walk in darkness, and don’t discern good from evil anymore. (Citeste si: Biserica vede sau oarbe?).
One moment they walk in darkness and enjoy the works of darkness and sin and another moment they pray, read the Bible, and go to church praising the Lord.
De exemplu, on Friday or Saturday night they go to bars and clubs, drinking, dancing, and partying, and on Sunday morning they sit in the church. These so-called Christians don’t see anything wrong with doing this. They think it’s okay and a normal thing to do.
They think they lead a good life and that they please God because according to their unrenewed carnal minds, God accepts everything. After all, it’s all by grace. But that is a big lie!
The Yin and Yang principle is a lie of the devil
The devil wants you to believe that good and evil, darkness and light, etc. can go together. But ‘Yin and Yang’ is a lie of the devil. His children believe his lies, but the children of God should know better and discern the lies of the devil from the truth of God. (Citeste si: ‘Care sunt caracteristicile unui fiu al lui Dumnezeu?‘)
Friendship with the world is enmity against God
But light and darkness, good and evil cannot go together. Because each one of them belongs to another kingdom; Împărăția lui Dumnezeu și împărăția diavolului. God’s Word is the Truth and the Word of God says:
You adulterers and adulteresses, know you not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God? whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God (James 4:4)
Be you not unequally yoked together with unbelievers: for what fellowship has righteousness with unrighteousness? And what communion has light with darkness? And what concord has Christ with Belial? Or what part has he that believes with an infidel? Și ce înțelegere are templul lui Dumnezeu cu idolii?? For you are the temple of the living God; as God has said, voi locui în ei, și umblă în ele; iar eu voi fi Dumnezeul lor, și ei vor fi poporul Meu. De aceea, ieșiți din mijlocul lor, și fiți despărțiți, says the Lord, și nu te atinge de lucrul necurat; și Eu vă voi primi, Și va fi un Tată pentru voi, and you shall be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty (2 Corinteni 6:14-18)
