Maraming tao, kabilang na ang mga Kristiyano, magsanay ng martial arts nang hindi nalalaman ang panganib ng martial arts. Nagsasanay sila ng martial arts sa iba't ibang dahilan, tulad ng mga benepisyo sa kalusugan, pisikal na ehersisyo, pagtatanggol sa sarili, tiwala sa sarili, disiplina sa sarili, pagpipigil sa sarili, pagpapahalaga sa sarili, mga problema sa pag-uugali, police and military purposes, spiritual development, atbp. But is martial arts good for you and harmless and is it safe to practice martial arts, or is martial arts dangerous and bad for you? What does the Bible say about martial arts? Should Christians practice martial arts or is martial arts demonic? What is the spiritual danger of martial arts that many people are not aware of?
What is the history of martial arts?
Martial arts derives from the Latin words: arts of Mars (the Roman god of war). Although the oldest form of martial arts goes all the way back to Egypt, 3400 BC. Contemporary martial arts is associated with Eastern combat sports, like karate, judo, taekwondo, (Shaolin) kung-fu, (kick)boxing, Thai-boxing, Jiu-jitsu, Aikido, Savate, Wing Chun, Muay Thai, (sumo) wrestling, pagtatanggol sa sarili, Hapkido, Gungdo, Tang-soo-do, Taekkyeon, wrestling, Shuai Jiao, Wushu, Sambo etc.
When we go back to the roots of Eastern combat sports, we see that Eastern combat sports derived from Hinduism, (Zen) Budismo, Taoism (like Judo), Confucianism, and Shinto.
The martial arts and its methods and techniques are developed through meditation, through yoga (Basahin mo rin: Ano ang panganib ng yoga?).
Kaya nga, martial arts is connected to the occult realm of spirituality and religion (Hinduismo, (Zen) Budismo, Taoism, Confucianism, and Shinto).
Martial arts can’t be disconnected from the occult realm, because it originates from the occult realm.
Buddhist monks had a great impact on the development of martial arts. The temples and monks were often robbed and they couldn’t use weapons to protect themselves. Dahil diyan, the monks looked for another way to defend themselves.
During the practice of Meditasyon and channeling with spiritual forces and beings, that we know as demons, these evil spirits gave them wisdom and insights. They gave them wisdom and insights, by showing them bodily combat technics and positions. A well-known manuscript is the Shaolin order.
The monks applied and practiced these combat technics and received power and strength from these evil spirits, so that they could defend themselves and protect the temples.
Combat knowledge through meditation and channeling with spirits
Many great martial artists gained combat knowledge through meditation and channeling with spirits (mga demonyo).
Meditation, including breathing exercises, still plays a major role in practicing martial arts. (Basahin mo rin: ‘Ang panganib ng pagmumuni-muni‘).
Halimbawa na lang, when you look at Japanese martial arts, meditation and emptying your mind are key to promoting energy flow (qi) and peace through your body (like Aikido).
In Korean martial arts, like Taekwondo, meditation and breathing exercises are used to create kapayapaan sa loob.
In Chinese martial arts, meditation and breathing exercises are also key. Think about qigong or kung-fu (the achievement or success of man).
What is Qigong?
Qigong is a Chinese kinematics and means energy (qi) cultivation (gong). Qigong is a system that is developed to increase the flow of the body’s life energy (qi or chi), through posture, mga pagsasanay, breathing technics, at pagninilay-nilay.
Ayon sa Taoismo, Budismo, and Confucianism, qigong provides access to the higher spiritual realms of the consciousness (entering the spiritual realm out of your soul). So that the true nature of the person awakens and the human potential is developed. (Basahin mo rin: Ano ang dalawang paraan upang makapasok sa espirituwal na larangan?).
sa pagitan ng 1940-1950 martial arts came to the West. The entertainment industry had a major influence on martial arts.
During the ’70s and ’80s, martial arts became extremely popular through many karate and kung-fu movies. Maraming tao, lalo na ang mga kabataan at mga bata ay naudyukan na magsanay ng martial arts at naghanap ng martial arts schools at dojos.
Ano ang pinagmulan ng martial arts?
Ang martial arts ay nagmula sa Hinduismo, (Zen) Budismo, Taoism, Confucianism, and Shinto. Sa pamamagitan ng pagninilay at pag-channel sa masasamang espiritu, ang masasamang espiritung ito ay nagbigay ng karunungan; mga postura ng katawan, at mga pisikal na diskarte sa labanan. Samakatuwid ang martial arts ay konektado sa masasamang espiritu at ang okulto. Ang pinagmulan ng martial arts ay ang kaharian ng kadiliman.
Dahil ang martial arts ay konektado sa kaharian ng kadiliman at nagmula sa karunungan ng mga demonyo, hindi mo maaaring idiskonekta ang mga pisikal na pagsasanay at mga diskarte sa labanan mula sa espirituwal na aspeto ng martial arts. (Basahin mo rin: Maaari mo bang paghiwalayin ang espirituwal mula sa mga pilosopiya at kasanayan sa Silangan?).
Sa sandaling sumali ka sa martial arts, pumasok ka sa teritoryo ng diyablo at buksan ang iyong sarili para sa mga demonyong espiritu. Because every combat technique and position is linked to demonic spirits. Without the influence of demonic spirits, you can’t get practice martial arts.
The kingdom of darkness and demonic spirits are the source of martial arts.
The higher the level of a martial artist, the greater demonic power
The higher the rank and level of a martial artist, the greater demonic power the person possess. Sa totoo lang, you could say, that the colors of the belts resemble in the natural the spiritual level of demonic power. The darker the color, the higher the level, the greater the demonic power.
It’s actually the same as yoga. The more yoga poses you do, the more chakras you open up. And slowly you give yourself to the devil and his demons and be controlled by them.
It’s not surprising at all, that in most combat sports you start with a white belt and end up with a black belt. In some combat sports, you can even develop yourself further after the black belt. The belt represents the spiritual state of a person.
The sensei; the grandmaster (guro) is appointed as representative of the dragon and wears a black belt. His main purpose is to teach, train and equip as many people as possible in martial arts. The sensei disciples them en draws them into the kingdom of darkness. Without knowing the danger of martial arts, the pupils (the disciples of the sensei) open themselves to demonic powers that enter their lives.
As the disciple of the sensei develops and grows, the more ‘special’ powers (Mga Powers ng Occult) the disciple experiences.
The disciple shall experience extra strength and power in certain parts of the body. Halimbawa na lang, the disciple is able to make him/herself heavier, cut stones, or to manipulate and bewitch the opponent, by taking spiritual authority over the other person, at iba pa.
What does Dojo mean?
When you look at the name of the places, where martial arts is taught and practiced, you can conclude that they have nothing to do with the Kingdom of God, but that they represent the kingdom of darkness. Martial arts is taught and practiced in a Dojo. What does Dojo mean? Dojo means the place of the way.
A dojo used to be an addition to the temples. Therefore in most dojos, you may not enter with shoes. Because a dojo is connected with a holy place, isang templo. Think about Moses. Moses also had to take off his shoes, before he entered the holy ground.
In many traditional dojos, there are even Japanese cleansing rituals at the beginning and at the end of each training session. This is called Sojo and derives from the Zen and Shinto philosophy.
What does the Bible say about martial arts and should Christians practice martial arts?
What does the Bible say about martial arts and should a Christian practice martial arts? The Bible says that a child of God should abstain from pagan practices. Although the world has removed the spiritual aspect of martial arts and promoted and presented martial arts as a beneficial practice for your physical and mental health, martial arts originate from paganism and has its roots in the kingdom of darkness.
Bilang isang born again Christian, you have the Holy Spirit abiding in you and discern the spirits. You will be able to discern the spiritual realm and the two kingdoms; ang Kaharian ng Diyos at ang kaharian ng diyablo (dilim na). You shall discern, what kind of spirits are behind the natural practice of martial arts and see the spiritual danger of martial arts.
Therefore a born again Christian shall never engage in martial arts, because a born again Christian knows the spiritual danger of martial arts.
Even if the world says, that martial arts is good for your health, your body and mind, and for your self-development or for self-defense.
A born again Christian knows better and shall not be tempted, but shall discern the lies of the world.
Isang Kristiyano, who reads and studies the Bible knows the truth and the Kingdom of God. Therefore a Christian shall never enter the territory of darkness or the domain of the devil. A Christian shall never engage with demonic spirits and darkness, but shall expose the works of darkness instead.
At walang pakikisama sa mga hindi nabuong mga gawa ng kadiliman, ngunit sa halip ay reprove ang mga ito (Mga Taga Efeso 5:11)
Does Christian martial arts exist?
There are martial artists and martial arts actors, who have become Christians but haven’t laid down their lumang buhay and practices. They are still carnal and don’t discern the spiritual danger of martial arts. Kaya nga, they still practice and teach martial arts or still act in martial arts movies. Many keep practicing martial arts because it’s their profession. Together with other carnal Christians, who were refuse to lay down the practice of martial arts, they have brought the martial arts into the church and Christianized martial arts. (Basahin mo rin: Ang sarsa ng Kristiyano)
They provide martial arts performances and demonstrations, to get people acquainted with the Christian faith and to win people for Jesus Christ.
But what has martial arts in common with the Christian faith? What has Jesus in common with demons?
How can you represent the Kingdom of God and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and convince people of their sins, and lead them to Jesus Christ, through the occult practice of martial and doctrines of devils that derive from the kingdom of darkness?
In some carnal churches, they even give self-defense lessons, karate lessons or mixed martial arts (MMA)
Since these churches are carnal and have the spirit of the world, they use the same lie as the world, to promote martial arts for mental and physical health benefits. They say it’s good for a Christian, because you have to take care of your body, na siyang templo ng Espiritu Santo. But here we have another twisted truth, which is not the truth at all. Because the Bible says something else.
Carnal churches don’t see the spiritual danger of martial arts and defile the church
Hindi ba ninyo nalalaman na kayo ay templo ng Diyos, at na ang Espiritu ng Diyos ay nananahan sa inyo? Kung didungisan ng sinoman ang templo ng Dios, siya ay lilipulin ng Diyos; sapagkat ang templo ng Diyos ay banal, saang templo kayo. (1 Mga Taga Corinto 3:16-17)
At anong kasunduan ang may templo ng Diyos na may mga idolo? Sapagka't kayo ay ang templo ng buhay na Diyos; Tulad ng sinabi ng Diyos, Tatahan ako sa kanila, at maglakad sa kanila; At ako ang magiging Diyos nila, at sila'y magiging aking bayan. Kaya't lumabas mula sa gitna nila, at maging hiwalay ka, sabi ng Panginoon, At huwag hawakan ang marumi na bagay; At tatanggapin kita, (2 Mga Taga Corinto 6:16-18)
These Bible verses clearly contradict their sayings. Despite the Scriptures, many churches remain carnal instead of becoming spiritual. They focus on the flesh and promote the works of the flesh and are ignorant of the spiritual danger of martial arts and allow martial arts into the church and defile the church.
The Holy Spirit can’t have communion with demonic spirits
Ang totoo, as soon as you practice combat techniques that derive from demonic spirits, you obey their doctrine and bow to these demonic spirits and these demonic spirits enter your life. Sa kalaunan, the Holy Spirit will leave you. Because the Holy Spirit can’t have communion with darkness (ang demonyo, mga demonyo, kasalanan at kamatayan).
The Bible is clear and says, that you shouldn’t pay much attention to bodily exercise. Because the body profits little. Sa halip, you should pay attention to godliness:
For bodily exercise profiteth little: ngunit ang kabanalan ay mapapakinabangan sa lahat ng bagay, pagkakaroon ng pangako ng buhay na ngayon, at yaong darating (1 Timoteo 4:8)
Ang Espiritu ang bumubuhay; walang pakinabang ang laman: ang mga salitang sinasabi ko sa inyo, Sila ay espiritu, at ang mga ito ay buhay (John 6:63)
Martial arts has nothing to do with God, ang Ama, Jesucristo, ang anak na lalaki, at ang Banal na Espiritu. There is only one Master and that’s Jesus Christ. You are Jesus’ disciple and you should only bow for Jesus and no one else.
Martial arts has everything to do with the devil and his kingdom. The devil is the author of martial arts, and he will always remain the author.
What is the danger of church leaders, who practice martial arts?
There are even church leaders, who practice martial arts and preach on Sundays. Because they practice martial arts, these demonic spirits of martial arts that reside in their lives, will be transferred upon the lives of the believers.
Remember that the church is the assembly of believers, who are united together in one (espirituwal na) katawan.
When you go to church and listen to a preacher, have communion, or let a church leader, who practices martial arts lay hands on you, these demonic spirits of darkness in the person’s life will enter your life as well.
During church services, manifestations occur, that believers consider as manifestations coming from the Holy Spirit. Pero sa totoo lang, they are demonic manifestations coming from the devil.
When a spiritual leader is not willing to give up his or her old life, but stays carnal and walks after the flesh, sa halip na ang Espiritu, then the demonic powers in the person’s life will also enter into the lives of the believers of the congregation and manifest themselves.
The believers become lukewarm, experience spiritual resistance during prayer and/or studying the Bible, indifference towards sins, kamunduhan, pagmamalaki, irritation, pagiging agresibo, kabastusan, karahasan, an increase of sexual uncleanness, more love for the things of the world, than the things of the Kingdom of God, pagod, hindi mapakali, Insomnia, depresyon, mga pag-iisip ng pagpapakamatay, atbp.
All of this happens, because a preacher, matanda na, or any other church leader still loves the world and refuses to lay down his/her old life. Therefore the church leader remains carnal and focuses on the carnal things of life instead of the spiritual.
Through a lack of spiritual knowledge and ignorance of the spiritual danger of martial arts, many people fall and become a victim of the dragon; ang demonyo, na lumilibot na naghahanap ng kanyang masasakmal.
Ang domain ng dragon
Ang martial arts ay kabilang sa domain ng dragon at hindi sa domain ni Jesus Christ. Tumingin sa mga dojo o gym, kung saan itinuturo ang martial arts, at tingnan kung anong uri ng mga imahe at simbolo ang nakasabit sa mga dingding.
Sa karamihan ng mga dojo, makikita mo ang mga larawan ng dragon at mga kilalang martial artist at/o mga pilosopo, na sinasamba bilang mga diyos ng mga mag-aaral. Dahil ang mga tao, lalo na ang mga bata, na gustong matuto ng martial arts, gustong maging katulad ng kanilang panginoon; sensei at isaalang-alang ang sensei na kanilang mga idolo o bayani.
Maraming martial arts na pelikula ang kasama ang pangalan ng dragon. At iyon mismo, kung ano ang kinakatawan ng martial arts: ang domain ng dragon.
Sa Bibliya, nabasa rin natin ang tungkol sa dragon, na tumutukoy sa diyablo. Samakatuwid ang nasasakupan ng dragon ay nasasakupan ng diyablo.
When you know the Bible, you know the truth about the devil and his mission and should be aware of the spiritual danger of martial arts.
Ang misyon ng diyablo ay magnakaw, patayin ang mga, and destroy as many people as possible. The devil tempts and seduces people with his deceptive lies, and as soon as he controls the person, he steals and destroys the person.
Although it may seem innocent, may pag-asa, and promising in the natural realm, the reality is, that they are lies of the devil, that bring forth total destruction in the lives of people.
You reap, what you sow
Many Christians practice yoga and martial arts (that both derive from Hinduism and Buddhism). Dahil diyan, demonic spirits have not only entered and defiled their lives, but also entered and defiled the church.
We see increase of selfishness and lawlessness in the church. The ‘self’ has become the center of attention in many churches. Everything revolves around the prosperity and material enrichment of carnal people.
We also see an indifference towards sins, passivity for the Kingdom of God, an increase in fame, pagmamalaki, sekswal na karumihan, atbp.
Hindi ito nakakagulat, dahil ang sabi ng Bibliya, that you will reap what you sow. Therefore if you sow in the flesh, aanihin mo ang bunga ng laman (Basahin mo rin: Ang itinanim mo, aanihin mo).
The church should be separated from the world
Born again Christian are sons of God (Ito ay nalalapat sa parehong mga lalaki at babae) and have been transferred from the darkness into the Kingdom of God, Kung saan si Jesucristo ay hari. They are separated from the world. Therefore born again Christians shouldn’t love the world, walk like the world and engage themselves with the things of this world, but separate themselves from it.
The world opposes the Bible; the Word of God and shall never go together. The world says to seek yourself, but the Bible instructs us, to seek God instead of yourself and to look out for others, instead of only yourself.
Let no man seek his own, but every man another’s wealth (1 Mga Taga Corinto 10:24).
If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies, Fulfil ye my joy, that ye be like-minded, having the same love, being of one accord, of one mind. Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves. Look not every man on his own things, but every man also on the things of others (Mga Taga Filipos 4:1-4)
The believers and disciples of Jesus Christ shouldn’t focus on the things, which are on this earth but focus upon the things, alin ang nasa itaas, kung saan nakaupo si Cristo.
Kung kayo nga'y muling nabuhay na kasama ni Cristo, hanapin ang mga bagay na nasa itaas, kung saan si Cristo ay nakaupo sa kanan ng Diyos. Itakda ang iyong pagmamahal sa mga bagay sa itaas, hindi sa mga bagay sa lupa. Sapagkat kayo'y mga patay, at ang buhay mo ay nakatago kasama ni Cristo sa Diyos (Mga Taga Colosas 3:1-3)
The Bible commands to walk after the Spirit and not after the flesh
The Bible instructs us to walk after the Spirit and not after the flesh. Ibig sabihin nito, that we shouldn’t pay attention to the flesh and obey its will. But we should pay attention to the Word and the Spirit and obey the will of God.
A healthy lifestyle and sports are tactics that the devil uses to seduce many Christians and draw them to his domain.
Many carnal Christians don’t see the spiritual danger of martial arts and go to gyms or dojos and practice kickboxing, karate, judo, qigong, or some other kind of martial arts, because it is supposed to be beneficial for your health; katawan, isip isip, (kaisipan) balance, lakas, atbp. But this is one big lie!
As soon as you engage in one of these combat sports, you focuses on your body; ang laman mo, which you have laid down and buried when you were baptized in Christ (Basahin mo rin: Ano ang bautismo?).
Gaya ng nabanggit kanina, one of the first traits, that will become visible in your life, will be irritation, kabastusan, pagiging agresibo, intolerance, pagmamalaki, megalomania, and sexual uncleanness.
Is judo dangerous for children?
There are many schools that promote judo for children, dahil ayon sa kanila, judo has mental and physical benefits for children. They say judo is safe for children and encourage children, who are shy, timid, unmanageable or autistic to take judo classes. Sa ganitong paraan, children learn to stand up for themselves, defend themselves, improve their confidence, and self-esteem, and develop discipline and respect.
Because many Christian parents have a spiritual lack of knowledge and are not aware of the spiritual danger of martial arts, they don’t see the danger of judo.
They believe the words of the teachers and consider judo safe for children and beneficial. And so they encourage their children to practice judo.
But do you know what judo means? Alam mo ba, that judo means soft way? Did you know that judo originates from Japan, from Taoism, which means the way of life?
When children practice judo, the child engage in Taoism and walk in another way of life instead of the Way of life of Jesus Christ.
Every judo technique and move originates and is connected to Taoism; the doctrine of evil demonic spirits. You can’t disconnect judo from Taoism. (Basahin mo rin: Maaari mo bang paghiwalayin ang espirituwal mula sa mga pilosopiya at kasanayan sa Silangan?).
When children get involved in judo, demonic spirits enter and controle their minds and lives. They will harass them, cause doubt, depresyon, kabastusan, atbp.
self-defense classes on secondary schools
There are many secondary schools that provide self-defense classes during gym hours. The world says that self-defense is good for young adults, because they learn to defend themselves. But if that’s the case, then why do so many kidnappings, rapes, and crimes take place?
When someone approaches you with a weapon, do you think that it will be time to show your self-defense moves?
Bukod sa na, the Bible nowhere instructs us nor promotes us, to defend ourselves. Tingnan mo si Jesus’ buhay na buhay, where did Jesus defend Himself? Or with whom did Jesus go into battle, when Jesus was banned from the synagogue or when Jesus was captured?
Jesus didn’t even resist when He was taken captive. When Peter cut off the ear of the servant of the high priest, Hindi sinabi ni Jesus: “Well done Peter, that’s really good of you!”Hindi! Jesus healed the ear of the servant and did well.
God wants to take care of His children and protect them. God is our Protector and no one else. But if you take self-defense classes, una sa lahat, you show through your deeds that you don’t trust God but you rely on your own ability. Pangalawa, you show that you expect to be attacked by someone. The ‘what if’ question should not be part of the lives of Christian.s
The remainders of the former life are taken into the church
Ang problema ay, that in today’s world, many Christians don’t lay down their old life and don’t put off the old man. They take the remainder of their (okulto) former life into the church. Therefore the church is defiled by occult powers and has become an Occult Church.
Sa kasamaang palad, there are not many church leaders, who are able to discern these evil demonic spirits and remove them from the church, before they affect the lives of other church members.
The spirit of Hinduism, Budismo, at bagong panahon na entered many churches, and operate among Christians.
It is all based on feelings. (Basahin mo rin: Ang Banal na Espiritu kumpara sa New Age Spirit, Aling espiritu ang naninirahan sa iyo?‘).
Look at church services, and the music and the lyrics. By using melodies and the repetition of words, people get in some kind of trance.
We see a manipulation of the mind and a lot of emotional manifestations. The experience of the carnal believers has become the center of the church service.
Ngunit kapag nagpasya kang sumunod kay Hesus, it means that you have to give up your own life and follow Jesus; ang Salita.
Are you willing to give up your life for Jesus Christ?
If you decide to follow Jesus and become born again in Christ, you will be transferred from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of God. Ibig sabihin nito, that you shall no longer do, and engage yourself with, the works of the kingdom of darkness but you shall listen to God. You shall live according to His Word and His mga utos.
There are still many Christians, who live in the lies of the devil.
They live in the power of the devil and are not willing to give up their old carnal life, because they still love the world and the things of the world.
Sa palagay nila libre sila, habang sa totoo lang, they are still slaves of the devil and live in darkness in sin.
The magicians gave up magical arts for Christ
When we look at the magicians, who practiced magical arts, in the book of Acts, we read that they knew very well, what it meant to follow Jesus Christ. They knew that it meant, to give up their old life with their occult practices. But they loved the Truth and believed in Jesus Christ and decided to follow Jesus, which meant that they had to give up their profession and income for Jesus Christ.
They not only confessed Jesus as their Lord, but they also acted according to their confessions. They burned their books, from which they gained all their worldly knowledge and magician power.
And many that believed came, and confessed, and shewed their deeds. Many of them also which used curious arts brought their books together, and burned them before all men: and they counted the price of them, and found it fifty thousand pieces of silver. So mightily grew the word of God and prevailed (Mga Gawa 19:18-20)
If you practice martial arts, are you willing to give up martial arts for Jesus? O mahilig ka ba sa martial arts at sa kapangyarihan nito at sa paggalang na nakukuha mo, higit pa sa pagmamahal mo kay Hesus?
Naniniwala ka ba at ginagamit ang mga kasinungalingan ng diyablo upang gawing Kristiyano ang martial arts at gawing aprubado ang martial arts para sa mga Kristiyano? O talagang ibigay ang iyong buhay para kay Jesu-Kristo at ibigay ang iyong dating buhay, kabilang ang martial arts, at kunin ang Bibliya at sundin Siya, tulad ng mga occult practitioners, na nagsisi at tumalikod sa kanilang mga dating gawi at sinunog ang kanilang mga aklat para kay Jesus at sumunod sa Kanya.
