Seattle Pastor Says Yoga Is Demonic, Sinful & Warns Christians To Reject It

Pastor Mark Driscoll from the Mars Hill Church in Seattle, says in his blog, that “yoga is a religious philosophy that is in direct opposition to Christianity”. Because of this, he believes that “yoga cannot be simply received by any Christian in good conscious”.

He goes on to say that yoga is downright demonic and he compares it to being as bad as adultery:

There is nothing wrong with stretching, exercising, or regulating one’s stress through breathing. But when the tenets of yoga are included, it’s by definition a worship act to spirit beings other than the God of the Bible. By way of analogy, there is nothing inherently wrong with intimacy, sex, and pleasure. But when the tenets of adultery are included, it’s a sinfully idolatrous worship act. A faithful Christian can no more say they are practicing yoga for Jesus than they can say they are committing adultery for Jesus.
