In two recent Parker J. Cole Show podcast interviews, former New Age followers Richard and Linda Nathan discuss the growing interest in psychedelic drug use, even among Christians.
From the Parker J. Cole Show:
Psychedelics are growing in Christian circles. But are they giving believers a closer relationship with God, or tearing them further apart?
Many Christians seek a deeper intimacy, but they want an experience, and not a relationship. Drugs such as marijuana, LSD, and other substances can alter the state of consciousness, giving one an experience. However, in the midst of that, we open the doorway to demonic influence.
Don’t believe me? Well, listen in as I chat with former occult members and New Agers Linda and Rich Nathan as they share their knowledge about this dangerous trend.

I heard lately that marijuana is much stronger than it was decades ago, therefore much more dangerous. Here in CA liberals think it can be used for medicinal purposes and we have sites where it can be bought easily. Very sad; marijuana used to be illegal.
Feeding the mind/flesh with drugs incapacitates one from the ability to feed the spirit – from sensing the Holy Spirit’s illumination and guidance. Altering the mind with substances destroys even the born-from-above person’s receptivity to dividing between soul and spirit through the Word of God. A Christian cannot be watchful and sober-minded while indulging the flesh in this manner; it greatly weakens the believer from being enabled to distinguish between good and evil. Let’s not be deceived about the adversary’s wiles because this is the accuser’s plan.
