Read on Twitter
As a christian you have no business participanting in water rituals or whatever coloured candle light rituals we see here everyday. As a Christian, the Word of God is your source of truth and if it's not in the word of God, don't do it. 
Why do you participate in water rituals to heal or remove fake friends or whatever they do, when all you can ask for is discernment and for the Holy Spirit to grant you the grace and wisdom to know how to choose the right friends?
There is no new age theology la.
Listen, be careful not to adopt unknown practices that are popular on Twitter without understanding why and without consulting with the Word of God. Donât let the desperation for an answered prayer to drive you to do things that are not of God. Not everything is profitable.
I am tweeting for Christians who above all have placed Gods Word as their source of authority. If wena o spiritual, this is not for you. Kindly ignore the tweet kaore o tlo nganga o le one ra no go lebelela ya ba okare a di re mzala.

Someone who gets it. Aketsebe le kwatetseng.
I think I failed to elucidate what I meant on the tweet. Nowhere am I refuting the use of water biblically, the use of candles, incense etc. There is a biblical view of such and their symbolic meaning. Incense is biblically a metaphor for prayer.
I am in nowhere trivializing those because when we dive into hermeneutics we can see that the burning of incense was tantamount to the presence of God and it was important everytime a priest went before God in the tabernacle.
Exodus 30:34
The Lord said to Moses, âTake sweet spices, stacte, and onycha, and galbanum, sweet spices with pure frankincense (of each shall there be an equal part)
-one on the examples of the use of the use of incense.

However, the crux of my tweet is about Christians who literally adopt water rituals or any other form of ritual that is unbiblical. There is no partiality in Godâs truth & nowhere in scripture do we see Jesus saying we must write peopleâs names on piece of papers -
And soak the page in water to release the people. There is no Christianity without Christology and the study of Christ reveals to us how detrimental religious ritualism can be. It's pellucid in the synoptics how Jesus spent time rebuking certain things.
âThey worship me in vain, teaching as doctrines human commands. Abandoning the command of God, you hold on to human tradition.ââ
Mark 7:7-8
The fact that Jesus mentioned human tradition goes on to reveal how certain things can be normalized yet unChrist like.

A ritual is a form of worship ( that is pretty much obvious) and often times it involves the use of symbols hence why the mosaic law is filled with dos and don't for the nation of Israel. The rituals were a form of worship to God.
My question is, the rituals we perform as Christians, are they a sign of worship to God or? Also, how do you as a Christian separate the Word of God from your worship? As a Christian, born of the Spirit and water baptized, where in the New Testament do you find rituals?
The only rites commanded by God in the New Testament is partaking in the Holy Communion and Water Baptism ( being immersed in water). It is pretty much obvious how we somehow trivialize the Work of the Holy Spirit when we make room for liturgy.
This is why we have to ask ourselves if everything we do is beneficial for ourselves and the body of Christ. It may not be entirely wrong, as Paul would say that its permissible, but how is it profitable?
