the New Age movement is Satanic. It is NOT safe to participate in.
You dont have a bsis for saying that because new age is not one thing.
New Age thinking has its roots in Eastern mysticism, which attempts to bypass the mind.
Not true, most teaching based on eastern philosophy sees the change of the function of the mind from being wrapped up in thinking as a dream like state, while bringing awarenss of the mind is likened to awakning from the drea, and this is there the mind becomes the actually gateway for spirituality. There is NO bypassing. Another person who prweached this "mind change" (also known as metanoia repentance) was the eastern teacher Jesus....
There is a new organ of perception—the third eye—which gives spiritual light. One needs to get to the “psychic self” by training one’s self to ignore messages from the mind or to see that the mind is actually achieving “cosmic consciousness.” The mind can create reality.
The third eye does not define any new age movement.
ALso you are contradicting youtrself by saing the mind can create reality, because you said the say the mind must be bypassed.
History is not the story of humanity’s fall into sin and its restoration by God’s saving grace. Rather, it is humanity’s fall into ignorance and the gradual ascent into enlightenment.
Well, that doesnt make it satanic, for those moves that teaches this. History is history, and if you reject that man is growing in understnading then you reject hsitory at certain points. no one is saying different streams are all knowing, but you claim all of it is satanic. thats a judgement u need to stand for or repent from.
All is God. If all is one, including God
You dont belive "hear oh israel, God is one"
You dont beleive in
"Eph 4:6 there is one God and Father of all, who is above all and through all and in you all.
"?
You do realize that this is what is meant by a lot of it.
, then one must conclude that all is God.
You dont like the idea that "christ is all in all"?
"ALL IN ALL". hello?
It is pantheism—trees, snails, books, and people are all of one divine essence.
It could be some of it, but at large it is distincted between God and form, and form is not God, but a matter of our perception. This is different from pantheism in calissical sense because that would mean the form itself is god, which eastern philosophy at large denies.
Since God is impersonal, the New Ager doesn’t have to serve Him. God is an “it,” not a “He.”
Lame. Most eastern philosophy inspired teaching will call God him because of grammatical reasons. But its still foolish to say he is a man or a woman, and om certain taht some may say it to make a point, but its not the commen thing to say as you should know if you actually have spent some time in new age teachings
There is a change in consciousness.
Yes? Is that wrong. Tjesus and the apostles talked a lot about the consciouness, the change of it. It is called faith. But several words directly meaning consciouness is also used trough the new testament.
If we are God, we need to know we are God.
What do you mean "if we are god"?
Have you ever read jesus anser to when the pharasees accused him of being new age?
"
Joh 10:33 The Jews answered Him, saying, We do not stone you for a good work, but for blasphemy, and because you, being a man, make yourself God.
Joh 10:34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your Law, "I said, You are gods?"
Joh 10:35 If He called those gods with whom the Word of God was, and the Scripture cannot be broken,
Joh 10:36 do you say of Him whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, You blaspheme, because I said, I am the Son of God?
"
This is god in flesh, quoting is own words in the old testament.
We must become cosmically conscious, enlightened, or attuned to the cosmic consciousness.
So you dont like the word cosmic consciousness, even tho both words are greek and in the new testament. If they called it God or gods presence, you would likely admitt to it more. Do you realize that god IS omnipresent, and he is OMNIE awaer? or all knowing+ You donjt think it is a good idea to get in line with him? you rather have your mind seperated and doing its own thing?
ok...
Some who reach this enlightened status will claim to be “born again”—a counterfeit of biblical conversion. The essential is not whether we believe or meditate, but whom we believe in and what we meditate upon. Christ is the true, personal, objective reality, as He said that He is the way, the truth and the life, and no one comes to the Father except through Him
so you say conversion and "borna gain" is the same thing. You have no basis for that? Do you believe abraham was "born again"? Do you believe he was converted? How about melchisedek?
A cosmic evolutionary optimism is taught. There is a New Age coming.
ehm...you dont believe in the coming of the kingdom and a better age on this world? The wordl will be filled with the knowledge of his glory like the water covers the sea`? You dont b eleive in all natinos disciples? You dont belive in the rock that feel from heaven and smasehd all the otehr evil kingdoms and then grew to over the earth? You dont like the promises of the bible? You dont like "on earth as in heave? How is that not a better future on the earth, a better age? dude, pls
There will be a new world order, a new world government.
Nope. This is not commonly taught. Not in any other way than it is taught in the bibel, anyways.
New Age thinkers believe that there will eventually be a progressive unification of world consciousness. This, according to the Bible, is a counterfeit kingdom led by Satan himself.
right peace among men and unity is satan. Gotcha. and this is in the bible. better keep up the war and the fighting, because that is apparantly gods will for this earth, and satan is the good one. jeez
Christ has the true kingdom, and He will one day rule on earth with peace for all who accept Him as Savior and King (
Revelation 5:13).
But you JUST SAID waiting for a coming new age is satan!!!
If finite man can create truth, we are in desperate trouble in our society. Unless there are eternal absolutes from the eternal God, man will eventually be his own destruction.
You are talking about certain self help movements like the secret etc. These are not widely accepted teachings. Western philosophy inspird teaching generally agrees that there is one creator and one creation, but our perception of it, called maya, is darkened. ITs about the repentance form this fallen mind we can get more into the grace lead life that this creator intended. Nad yes, it is called grace. I can give you quotes that is exactly like bibical quotes.

New Agers make contact with the kingdom of darkness. Calling a medium a “channeler” and a demon a “spirit guide” has not changed the reality of what they are. This is the kingdom of darkness of which Satan is the head. Those involved in this kind of activity are in contact with a world that is totally opposed to the biblical God revealed to us in Jesus Christ, who defeated Satan (
Matthew 4:1–11;
Colossians 2:15;
Hebrews 2:14–18).
You just made a claim that new age make dontact with demons. You have no basis for saying that. You CAN claim that YOU beleive certain remnatns of spiritism (which genrally is not neccesarily linked to new age teachings) make contact with demons or fallen spirits, and you may be right, but people who believes in new age teachgins etc do not normall jsut speak eith demons, thats just a judgement you made that you either must back up or repent from, or you will be judged by the same judgement. Wher do you toughts come from? ALl the errors you mentioned here? WHERE is the source for these thigns. I know for certain they can no possbile be from God because they have many faults in it. Who do yuo communicate with in your mind? see what im saying?
The New Age movement is a counterfeit philosophy that appeals to the feelings of individuals,
Totally false, most teachings from easter inspiratino that ive ever researched talks about emotinonl freedom and healing just like christians do. They do not appeal any more to feelings that is done in a nroam church service. in fact probably a lot less. Im not by that saying church services are right, but that it would then fall under the same judgement.
leading them to think that that they are God
and can enhance their lives through their own person.
false, the new age teaching i know of, and i been in it for years before, and am not a stragner to the modern spiritual moves, do see personhood as a mask, a self, or a ego. They do not at all teach that this is God. What is common os ti teach that the "breath", meaning the spirit, is from god, so the real "i", not the person or the self, or the ego, or the soul or the ometal make up of a person is go, but that which gives us life and consiouness is the substance of god as it is his spirit.
Now this coincidentally is literally preached and taught troughout the bible more clearer than probably in any other book!
It was gods breth into adam that woke him up and made him into a living being. That means adam was made up, his life consisted of LIFE- NOw god IS life. Jesus IS life. Is that not in the bible? Is the spirit of god not called "the spirit of life"
Are we not "one spirit with the lord"? How many spirits are "one spirit? Is that two? or one?
So how can the teaching of us being from the substance of god, not BEING GOD the vreator himsel, since we are creted, how can that be untrue, when we ARE lving beings, we ARE one with gods spirit...r u sure you belive in the bible? ARe you sure YOURE not the one seduced into a satanic deception that actually ends up denying eternal truths?
The reality is that we are born, grow up, live a while on planet Earth, and die. Humans are finite. We can never be God. We need someone greater than we who can provide us forgiveness and life eternal. Praise the God for Jesus Christ. Through His death and bodily resurrection, He has won for us what we desperately need: forgiveness from God, a life of purpose and meaning in this life, and eternal life beyond the grave.
No, what you are saying is that you must be a CHRISTIAN, knwing your versino of the gospel, to receive eternal life beyond the grave. By that you have dismissed 4000 years of humanity before the historic cross, plus tyou have dismissed MOST of humanity the 2000 years after the cross as historically only 20% of the world as even known the gospel until our times. Because all those others must be new age, no matter if they was enochs, noahs, jetors, abrahams, melchisedeks, eliahs etc gentils that didnt lvie after the cross as wee, not to speak of all those spiritual ppl troughout all generatsion who are not mentioned in the bible.
