In modern days there are a lot of misunderstandings concerning what mysticism is about. One of the reasons for this is because the people who are well known for practicing mysticism are New Age. As such many have assumed mysticism is a New Age thing. But the truth is that mysticism has long existed before the New Age. Mysticism is found in every religion. Judaism, the religion practiced by the people in the Bible (both old and new testament) has its own form of mysticism. The Christian mysticism is as old as Christianity. Here in this course we would be clearing up a lot of misunderstanding about mysticism and we would look at a Christ-centered mysticism. We want to divorce from whatever kind of mysticism practiced by the New Age and the various religions of the world. We want to enter into that which is Christ, so that we might be caught up in the mystery of the union between Christ and his bride (Eph 5:31-32).
