Yoga is a false religion rooted in eastern religion and mysticism. According to Deuteronomy 12:1-4, we are not to borrow a practice from an occult religion (paganism). In Exodus 20:1-4, idolatry is a violation of God's commandments in His Holy Scripture. There is no such thing as Christian yoga; it did not originate in the church; there is no place for yoga in the Christian's life and should never be brought into it. Yoga is satanic worship and diametrically opposed to Christianity. Pragmatism is a new name for an old way of thinking: that is, disobedience to God’s Word. It is a philosophy which says that results are the criteria by which we determine whether something is good or bad. This means that truth is determined by consequences. Pragmatism leads to disobedience and gives a faulty understanding of what constitutes success. There are many Biblical examples of success. There are many examples of pragmatism: may we learn from history (Romans 15:4; I Corinthians 10:1-13). These examples include saints and sinners who succumb to this way of thinking. Abraham and Sarah were great lovers of God and yet struggled with pragmatism at times; for instance, in Genesis 12:10 Abraham’s decision to go into Egypt because of a famine. He put his wife in jeopardy and was reproved by a pagan king. Again, in Genesis 16, both Abraham and Sarah came up with a plan to help God provide the promised seed, impatience led to pragmatism which resulted in disobedience. The principles of God’s Word must dictate our every decision, and success must be determined by our Lord and not by the results. Let us take heed to the examples given to us in the Bible, for even good and godly people can become pragmatic at times which result in serious consequences. Fear God, keep His commandments, follow His ways and stay in fellowship with Him. Pragmatism rejects absolute truth and emphasizes practice over principle. May God help every Christian to abhor this evil and never replace theology with methodology. May we cling to the truth and never cut corners off the gospel of Jesus Christ.
