Yes, but I don't buy mysticism and magical thinking.

I agree about not buying majical thinking but:
Mysteries
Mt 13:10,11,13
And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables?
He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to Know the Mysteries
of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given.
...Because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
1 Cor 4:1 13:2 14:2
Let a man so account of us, as of the ministers of Christ, and stewards of the Mysteries
of God.
And though I have the gift of prophesy, and understand All Mysteries, and All Knowledge...
For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man
understandeth him; howbeit in the Spirit he Speaketh Mysteries.
Rom 11:25 16:25
For I would not, brethren, that ye should be Ignorant of this Mystery, lest ye should be wise
in your own conceits...
Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of
Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the Mystery, which was kept secret since the
world began.
1 Cor 2:7
But we speak the wisdom of God in a Mystery, even the hidden Wisdom, which God ordained
before the world unto our glory.
Eph 1:9 3:3,4
Having made known unto us the Mystery of his will...
How that by revelation he made known unto to me the Mystery...
Whereby, when ye read, ye may understand my Knowledge in the Mystery of Christ.
Col 1:27
To whom God would make Known what is the Riches of the Glory of this Mystery...
1 Tim 3:16
And without controversy Great is the Mystery of godliness...

Love, Light and Peace,

@ArcAngel Mystery and power are one thing, magic another.

Gen 41:8,24
And it came to pass in the morning that his spirit was troubled; and he sent and called for all the
magicians of Egypt, and all the wise men thereof: and Pharaoh told them his dream; but there was
none that could interpret them unto Pharaoh.
And the thin ears devoured the seven good ears: and I told this unto the magicians; but there
was none that could declare it to me.
And here is a few more verses:
Exo 8:18 9:11
Dan 4:7

@ArcAngel Magic is when something that can't cause a thing to happen does anyway. Magic is just false cause.

@Alyosha
You are right, it is a false cause; more distractions from
the dark ones.
Love, Light and Peace,
