I do believe in psychics. I believe they are of the evil one though. (Whether they know it or not)
Can there be Christians with Telekenisis? Hmmmm...
. I imagine there could be because God's powers are limitless. However, God only releases His power through us when it fits His holy purpose and will. I don't see how Telekenisis really fits into that. What is the holy purpose of moving things with your mind? How does that benefit mankind? How does it glorify God?Also, I think that video is pure magic tricks! It's an illusion. IF it is real, then it's demonic.

I don't know.
Perhaps.
Matthew 17
(20) And Jesus said unto them, Because of your unbelief: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you.

I believe in physics.
Open question to forum:
Does anyone actually KNOW someone who can do this and witnessed it first hand?

Well i have never seen the "move mountains" quote as being linked to Telekenisis. Those who claim Telekenisis exists claim that the power to do it comes from the person who has the power of Telekenisis.
The "move mountains" quote in the bible to me is about if you have faith in God and the mountain needs to be moved out of your path then God will cause it to be moved. Power from God. I the end times we are told that a mountain will be moved to allow an escape to happen.
Zechariah 14
3 Then the LORD will go forth
And fight against those nations,
As He fights in the day of battle.
4 And in that day His feet will stand on the Mount of Olives,
Which faces Jerusalem on the east.
And the Mount of Olives shall be split in two,
From east to west,
Making a very large valley;
Half of the mountain shall move toward the north
And half of it toward the south.
5 Then you shall flee through My mountain valley,
For the mountain valley shall reach to Azal.
So faith in God shall move a mountain.
All Praise The Ancient Of Days

its a deception as i was in or would be in if i want to return to the vomit.
i used to see auras. and also see orbs(spirits some say)
that isnt a good thing as the pyshic energy thing isnt all about God but you.
i used to manipulate people if i had too.
i used it to for sexual pleasure
none of it can redeem you, and it wont.

I believe that most psychics get their abilities from areas other than God. However, I suppose, if it was by God's will, a gift could be given to one of His followers. Telekinesis is included, though I have yet to meet anyone able to do this, much less a person who is of Christ.
I think if you look at all of the miracles recorded in scripture, I think all of them in some way directed people toward God and showed them his glory. They did not glorify the people who God used to perform them. I don't believe any miracle that does not cause people to give glory to God, is from God. It is either faked, or is from some other supernatural power that we, as Christians, shouldn't be messing around with or even let ourselves be fascinated by it. I don't see how anything in that video gives any glory to God.
By the way, I could easily fake everything that video shows, and I'm not even a magician! Their called magic tricks because they are just that. Tricks!

Yeah, there is a bit of difference between what real telekinesis would be and some "mystical" optical illusions.

I mean there is a difference between telekinesis:
the power to move something by thinking about it without the application of physical force
and illusion:
magic trick: an illusory feat; considered magical by naive observers
The video seems to be more illusion based than anything.

Does anyone else have a problem with threads randomly dropping out of their subscribed list until you finf them and post in them again?

I agree.
Time after time, when this has been tested in controlled studies, that people who claim to have telekinetic powers, aren't able to replicate them when being monitored.
I'm not saying they couldn't be given the power from Above or below, but I don't believe they can what they want at the time and place of their choosing

I think once you read all posts, the thread no longer stays in the subscribed list unless there are new unread posts. If you want to see all your posts, it's in "My Profile" right on top.

What this has to do with is the bio magnetic electrical field on the outside of our bodies that surrounds is being used to move physical objects. It is a natural part of our physical body. My doctor told me it exists it has as much to do with the occult as does my little finger. Stangelove asked above if there is anyone who can. I am a christian and am very aware of the energy around us, I see it around people and feel it in certain circumstances and it sure doesn't bother my walk with Jesus. But yeah it is there and i think it could move something if you tried hard enough.
Because of this in watching that video I could see how the energy field could be focusing on that object and making it move. You would have to have some time on your hands to practice that.
The danger for a christian is this, Replacing gods position in your life with other gods just as you would with a hobby or other interests ie your car and boat you may worship, and spend more time with that than in study and prayer.
1 Timothy 4:4
For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving,
