Mystical Experiences: Visions From God?
The apostle Paul wrote, "...I certify you brethren that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man (according to mortals). For I neither received it of man neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ" (KJV, Galatians 1:11-12).
Paul, whose name was changed from Saul, was the founder of many Christian churches. He was converted to belief in Jesus as the Son of God immediately after a spiritual experience that he had on his journey to Damascus to persecute followers of Christ (Acts 9:20). This biblical account affirming that man can and does receive visions from God, figures among many that are used to give credence to all messages received through mystical experiences. Unfortunately, it's often forgotten that all things are to be examined before they are accepted as coming from God.
1 John 4:1 warns, "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try (test) the spirits whether they are of God...." Again, 1 Thessalonians 5:21 reminds the believer to, "Prove (examine) all things...."
Concentration on mystical experiences in one's life instead of sound biblical doctrine caused one man to find himself in harrowing trouble with God. He attributed his "secret" knowledge of the things of God to a dream he had. Dreams are often referred to as "night visions" in scripture in which this man's dream is recorded in detail. He said, "Now a thing was secretly brought to me and mine ear received a little thereof. In thoughts from the visions of the night when deep sleep falleth on men, fear came upon me and trembling which made all my bones to shake. Then a spirit passed before my face. The hair of my flesh stood up. It stood still, but I could not discern the form thereof. An image was before mine eyes. There was silence and I heard a voice saying, 'Shall mortal man be more just than God? Shall a man be more pure than his maker? Behold, he put no trust in his servants and his angels he charged with folly...'" (Job 4:12-18).
The individual who spoke those words was Eliphaz, the Temanite who was one of the three men who came to talk with Job who was in the fiery trial of his faith. Eliphaz had much to say to Job with whom he shared the experience of his night visions to give credence to the spiritual counsel he was about to offer to the suffering servant of God. Eliphaz viewed himself as wise, having received wisdom and understanding from above. He spoke to Job with authority and undoubtedly expected his speech to be regarded as profound enlightenment. However, he was seriously mistaken. Job 42:7-8 says, "...The Lord said to Eliphaz the Temanite, 'My wrath is kindled against thee, and against thy two friends for ye have not spoken of me the thing that is right as my servant Job hath. Therefore take unto you now seven bullocks and seven rams and go to my servant Job and offer up for yourselves a burnt offering and my servant Job shall pray for you. For I will accept lest I deal with you after your folly in that ye have not spoken of me the thing which is right, like my servant Job'".
How many people are confusing mystical experiences with true revelations from the Lord and will find themselves in more danger than Eliphaz?
