YouTube - Chi Meditation for Telekinesis - Chi Shape Shifting

I remember reading in the bible somewhere Jesus sating something like " If you have enough faith you can do what I can do." and " If you have faith the size the size of a grain of rice you will be able to move a mountain." Well I would like to be able to have faith so I can do the same kind of things, while teaching about god, and helping others.

Well anyways I went to a website that I found through there which is where I learned that it was Taoism for this type of meditation.

Yet what is Taoism? and should I be looking into this or something else?

Note: I didn't watch the things that it said for a Christian to watch because I am not sure if this is something I should look into or not, and if it is right or wrong. I say this because I have not finished reading the bible yet, and I dont want anything to cloud my judgment.

Be careful what you ask for because God might just give it to you. The bible is full of people who had great faith you are correct and they could do amazing things through God. Most people don't realize that those people of great faith paid a very high price and suffered for the sake of God. They didn't sit down and clear their heads and practice moving a pencil with their minds. They sought out God and prayed for years obeying Him in what ever He told them to do. It took Moses 80 years before God would even use him for anything other than tending to a flock of sheep. Sure he grew up in that community and desired to help free his people from their captivity but he did it all wrong. God needed to take him away from there and break him before God would even use him.

If you wish to be a man of faith then you must be a bond servant of ALL. A lot of people think "I" would love to be able to heal people or move mountains or save people. God wants the honor and praise for that but 99.99% of the people who want this, crave the attention and will take great pride in doing things like this which would be completely against what God had intended. If you want to do something great bow your head and seek his face in everything you do every moment of the rest of your life. If you focus on God then He will be faithful to use you, if you want the glory or recognition you might want to put any plans you have off for another 40 years so that god can break you down to use you.
