New Spirituality on Popular Talk Show

The Queen of Talkshow tells her audience, "I am a Christian."

Friends, do not be deceived. The Jesus she speaks of is NOT the Lord Jesus Christ of the Bible. The Lord Jesus Christ of the Bible came to die upon a cross and pay the penalty for our sins--a debt we could never pay because the payment required was a perfect, sinless Lamb--Jesus Christ who was both man and God was the only One who could fulfill the payment in full--He is the Lamb of God and is now exalted and seated at the right hand of the Father. So, by Jesus's shed blood, we can have the forgiveness of sins and not receive the punishment we deserve, which is eternal separation from God in Hell--a real, literal, hell--the lake of fire. Because Jesus paid the price for our sins by shedding his blood on the cross, we can now have forgiveness for sin. But in order to have our sins forgiven, we must accept His payment, we must believe in Him and the words He spoke. And the Father showed his approval of his Son's sacrifice when he raised his Son from the dead. This showed Jesus was indeed fully God and fully man. We must believe Jesus is the only way to the Father, which is the words He spoke!

--She says that there are many ways to God. Jesus said there is only One Way--through Himself and through Himself alone!

Don't be deceived. One cannot both believe Jesus is the only Way and also believe that there is more than one way to God. One cannot believe what the Bible teaches, which is that there is a literal Heaven and Hell and that we should be concerned with eternity and then also believe the new spirituality that teaches not to be concerned about the future or death because all that matter is now, the present moment and nothing else.

Do not fall for the lie that you can believe this spirituality taught be this talk show host and also be a Christian. This is impossible. There is no reconciliation between Christian doctrine and this 'new spirituality' preached by Oprah and friends.

What fellowship can light have with darkness or what concord hath Christ with Belial??

None.

Rob Bell quotes, Mandella quotes, New Age quotes.....all unbiblical quotes

So, I just read this quote by Rob Bell........where he claims he is quoting Nelson Mandella....but the nearly identical quote appears in New Age leader Marianne Williamson's book.....

But regardless if it came from Marianne Williamson or Nelson Mandella....the message in the quote itself is what's most disheartening. These quotes (by Bell, Williamson, and Mandella) says that there is greatness and power and glory that resides in every human being.

Read these 2 nearly identical quotes here.

This is simply not what the Bible says. The Bible says there is nothing good in our flesh (Romans 7), and Paul describes himself as a wretched man. The Bible says that there is none who does good, not one (Psalm 14), and that there is none who is righteous (Romans 3). The only One who is righteous and great and deserves all the glory is the One who gave His life as a ransom for many. And HIS POWER (not mine) is made perfect in WEAKNESS (2 Corinthians 12).

"Shifts" and The Moses Code Movie

I just read another really good post about the many "shifts" that are occurring around the world today. This "shift" word is being thrown around many circles--new age circles, emerging church circles, Willow Creek Community Church Conferences, Brian McLaren, Leonard Sweet, etc. etc. So, what is all this "shifting" about anyway? Where does it all seem to be heading?

Bob from Shofar Ministries has written an excellent post about the similarities between New Age Talk and Emergent Talk. I highly recommend you read Bob's article, which also touches on the blasphemous Moses Code movie, based on the Law of Attraction, that will be released in April.

At the end of one of the clips for this movie, a man looks into the camera and blasphemously states that "I am the way the truth and the life". Watch that clip here.

****NOTE***The previous clip has since been removed from Youtube, but I will try to locate it on another website******

Watch the movie trailer for the Moses Code here at its official website.

There is another post about the Moses Code from more books and things here.

And if you are really interested in this, here is another post about the Big Shift and the Moses Code from Christian Worldview Network

There is a major, deceptive "shift" underway. The question is, will you be swept away with it?

Satan's Greatest Weapon

So, I just read a great blog on watchers lamp, which talks about Rick Warren's whole unity push. This sparked intense feelings for me, as I have heard this whole spiel from those me and my husband have met with to discuss some of these emerging church unbiblical teachings. They often throw the whole unity speech at us.

Rick Warren says, "As pastors, as shepherds of God’s people, it’s our job to protect our congregations from Satan’s greatest weapon – disunity" .

Watchers Lamp reminds us that the Bible says Satan's greatest weapon is NOT disunity; it is DECEPTION! Did Eve eat from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, which God commanded them not to do, because she was disunified? No, she took it because Satan deceived her!

" And the LORD God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?” The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.” Genesis 3:13

The Bible says that those who cause disunity are those who are deceiving others by teaching false doctrine...And often they use good words and fair speeches...in other words, they are smooth talkers! It is not Bible-believing Christians who cause disunity by bring up teachings that are unbiblical. It is those who are doing the unbiblical teaching who are causing the disunity.

"Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them. For they that are such serve not our Lord Jesus Christ, but their own belly; and by good words and fair speeches deceive the hearts of the simple." Romans 16:17-18

It is not disunity but DECEPTION that leads people astray from God's Word and corrupts our minds.

"For I am jealous for you with godly jealousy. For I have betrothed you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. But I fear, lest somehow, as the serpent deceived Eve by his craftiness, so your minds may be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ. For if he who comes preaches another Jesus whom we have not preached, or if you receive a different spirit which you have not received, or a different gospel which you have not accepted—you may well put up with it! 2 Corinthians 11:2-4

"The devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet are. And they will be tormented day and night forever and ever." Revelation 20:10

The Bible is clear that deception, not disunity, is Satan's greatest weapon. And Satan's job is made a lot easier when those who are deceived are unified in their deception.

And therefore, do not be deceived!
