Deep dives
Objects of Blessing and Cursing
Blessing physical objects in the church stems from putting them in the right relationship with God. However, the misuse of blessed objects for superstitious purposes can lead to a cursing effect, as it shifts faith from God to the object itself. Objects should be seen as conduits of God's grace, not as magical talismans.
