We are well aware that religion and magic do not go hand in hand. Despite this, many believers use esoteric services, believe in horoscopes or objects with magical power. Recently, on the profile of Father Sebastian Picur on TikTok, a question arose about whether wearing minerals around the neck is a sin. The priest had no doubts.
If minerals are given supernatural powers and associated with magic, then wearing them is a sin
he replied. However, the discussion did not end with one answer.
Priest about popular necklaces: Wearing them is a sin
Belief in the magical powers of natural stones is nothing new. Already the inhabitants of Babylon wore jewelry with the addition of precious stones, which was to serve them as a kind of talismans. Protect from misfortune. Today they are back in fashion. Some believe they can heal and make you feel better. However, this does not go hand in hand with the teachings of the Church. It is not surprising that the priest’s answer – although obvious – found its skeptics.
The priest emphasized that wearing minerals for ornamental purposes is not a sin.
One thing is a decorative purpose, and another is a magical one
he said in the next video.
However, references to Catholic jewelry and the effects attributed to it quickly appeared. Someone asked how wearing the “Miraculous Medal” should be treated then.
Wearing the Miraculous Medal is not connected with the strength of the material itself, but with the veneration of Mary, who leads us to Jesus
replied the priest. However, netizens did not give up.
Giving power, i.e. faith in the “stone” and its power, is the same as kissing the figure of Jesus crucified, because we will get power, salvation, grace?
another TikTok user asked.
Where is the source of the “power” of stones? The source of the blessing that is connected with the veneration of the cross is Jesus Christ
– answered Fr. Sebastian Picur. One woman noticed that St. Hildegard mentions the healing activities of stones…
Natural properties are one thing, supernatural powers are another
– emphasized the priest.
