When someone says that someone is 'slain in the Spirit' is this a Roman Catholic term?
Yes, the term 'slain in the Spirit' IS a Roman Catholic term. So is being in a 'divine state of grace'. Being in a 'divine state of grace' is sort of, some what the SAME term, BUT has a different meaning. If anyone has more information please message me. Merci beaucoup.
Roman Catholic AnswerDivine state of grace: Okay, I think what you are talking about here is being in a state of grace. There are many different classifications of grace, none of them called "divine state of grace". Grace is a supernatural gift of God that He freely bestows on us for our eternal salvation. Grace is indispensable to reach salvation, and there is nothing we can do to earn it, we have, of ourselves, no claim on God's grace (outside of His Son, and His Sacrifice). We must, however, cooperate with this grace and we have it entirely within our power to lose it. One mortal sin is enough to totally lose God's grace and condemn oneself to hell.Slain in the spirit is "a phenomenon of pentecostalism and the charismatic movement, where a person is believed to be overcome by the Holy Spirit. The experience is temporary, during which the individual collapses in a faint, although the faculties of thought and volition remain intact. The "slaying" takes place when a charismatic, already possessed by the Spirit, lays his or her hands on the head of another person. It is considered one of the external signs of a special outpouring of divine grace." from Modern Catholic Dictionary by John A. Hardon, S.J. Doubleday & Co., Inc. Garden City, NY 1980
So, no, slain in the spirit is not a Roman Catholic term and, outside of pentecostalism and the charismatic movement is basically meaningless.
