The Satanic New Age Belief

The Satanic New Age Belief.





I have heard some New Age people say that there are
many different kinds of ways to get to heaven, that Jesus is not the only way.
And they say I am glad you have found your way, but don’t tell me that Jesus is
the only way. These newagers are completely oblivious to what the Bible has to
say about the one and only true way to heaven. The majority of them do not care
at all what the Bible has to say.


They get very angry at the Bible’s teaching of how to
get to Heaven and about who Jesus is. The Bible says in John 14:6 I am the way
the truth and the live, no one goes to the Father except through Me.


And In John 1:1 it says


{In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with
God, and the Word was God.} This idea is completely unacceptable to them
because they believe themselves to be God.





The New Age Belief





1# God, No
personal God at all, just a cosmic force, a fragment of which is in us,
therefore we are gods. There is often a male/female polarity in this ‘force’
(yin/yang).





2# Jesus: A man who evolved into an Ascended Master
(god-like being) through occult and metaphysical disciplines.





3# Christ, An impersonal ‘force’ that rested on the
man Jesus and made him special, but which has also rested on others, and can even
rest on us.





4# The Bible, At best a work of cabalistic secrets
that can only be understood by ‘Masters.’ At worst a stupid book of Jewish
legends.





5# Salvation, By works of occult discipline. The law
of karma is irresistible and is what judges us.





6# Denial of Death, Belief in reincarnation. Most New
Agers believe that humans can evolve into gods through many lifetimes.





7#Magical Worldview, View of universe as a machine
that can be manipulated through sophisticated mental and spiritual technology-no
sovereign God.





8# Intolerance of Monotheism, Jews, Christians, and
Muslims regarded as counterrevolutionary. They must either evolve or be
purified.





The Deceptions of the New Age belief





1.God’s Word cannot be trusted entirely


2.Man does not have to die


3.Man can become a god


4.Man can evolve through hidden knowledge





All of these are in direct contradiction with the Word
Of God. I believe that the new world religion will be the New Age because they
reject that Jesus is the Son of God and God himself. The New Age is all about
love and peace which is exactly what the Antichrist will be all about, at
first. Then Three and a half years into the tribulation he will turn and show his
true colors, but it will be too late for the sinful people who have excepted
his mark. The New Agers have a big surprise coming. I for one will never trust
anyone or anything to get me to heaven except Jesus’ death on the cross that he
suffered for me. Jesus is the only way, like it or not, you New Agers, the Word
of God stands forever. Lee

I agree with you that this New Age Belief has blinded many. Some believe in Bible yet they also believe in New Age Belief.

If we go back in the history, people were looking for "Philosopher's Seal", and it is also shown in Harry Potter. There were many who fell into this. They were know as practising Alchemy. They wanted to look for a secret to convert anything into gold like King Midas "Touch of gold". Alchemists also looked into secret spells that would give them eternal life. In later years, the study of Alchemy was broken into Physics and Mathematics.

People believe in all foolish stuff but they will not believe in a simple truth and that is Jesus Christ. They would be believe in Aliens, super intelligent beings, with big eyes, green skin, three fingers on each hand.

To me they do not look super intelligent beings, for they do look like cartoons.

God bless you

These people are fooled by satan. You can see how many people now believe in destiny and astronomy. This is how satan fooled eve and adam. We are falling to this evil and it must be stopped. I agree that new age belief is like termites that is eating us up all slowly. We should be worried and tell others about the reality.

God bless

Discussing the Bible With New Agers from the IN PLAIN SITE website.

by Elliot Miller

Part One

from the Effective Evangelism column of the Christian Research Journal, Fall 1994, page 9. The Editor-in-Chief of the Christian Research Journal is Elliot Miller.

Any conscientious effort to present the gospel to a New Ager eventually leads to a discussion of the Bible. Although such a debate is engaged on Christian turf, it is often the New Ager, not the Christian, who afterwards feels satisfied with the discussion. For example:

Christian: Do you believe in Jesus?

New Ager: Yes, I believe in Jesus -- and in Buddha, and Ramakrishna, and my own guru, too.

Christian: But Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father, but through me."

New Ager: That's right! I Am is the truth and the only way.

Christian: What?

New Ager: The I Am Presence or spark of divinity in each one of us!

Christian: Wait a minute. Jesus was speaking about Himself...

New Ager: Yes, and only when each one of us can say with Jesus, I Am, will we realize God as Jesus did.

Christian: But 1 Timothy 2:5 says the man Christ Jesus is the only mediator between God and men.

New Ager: Oh, that means the only mediator is our Christ Consciousness or Higher Self.

Christian: You're taking the Bible out of context.

New Ager: The problem with you fundamentalists is you hang on its every word. We're in a New Age and much of the Bible is obsolete! Yet there are also timeless truths within it, and only when you accept the Universal Wisdom in all religions will you recognize those truths.

Christian: Second Timothy 3:16 says all of Scripture is God's Word and profitable, so you can't prove what you're saying from the Bible.

New Ager: You quote the Bible to prove the Bible and then tell me I lack proof? Actually, my guru does prove her teachings from the Bible, because she can unlock its esoteric meaning. But you fundamentalists are so obsessed with literal meaning you don't understand your own book. [End of discussion.]

In such a conversation the New Ager's faith in mysticism and his guru have hardly been shaken. The Christian, on the other hand, has hardly become encouraged about further witnessing to New Agers. Their words seem to miss each other as they speak from very different presuppositions. How can the Christian scale this barrier to effective evangelism? Let me suggest a basic approach.

Underlying the Christian-New Age debate is the question of how much respect one should show the Bible. For Christians the Bible is the authoritative Word of God. All of its teachings are true and in agreement. Each passage has one objective interpretation that must be sought.

To find the Bible's true meaning, careful consideration must be given to context -- in the immediate passage, Scripture as a whole, and the surrounding historical situation. In this way the Bible can speak for itself.

New Agers, on the other hand, not only disregard the Bible's claim to be uniquely inspired by God -- they don't even show it the respect any piece of literature deserves: to be understood objectively, on its own terms. This is because they approach it with biases derived from the authorities they do respect: intuition and experience.

Because they have drunk from the well of mystical and psychic experience, and because they have become immersed in the occult teachings drawn from that well, New Agers usually accept only those ideas that seem to confirm their own intuitions. For example, if a teaching denies the divine oneness of all things and the underlying harmony of the world's religions, they reject it. However, since Christianity is one of those supposedly harmonious religions, many New Agers cannot accept that its Scriptures actually deny that harmony and oneness -- it must be that the "fundamentalists" are misinterpreting them.

New Agers consequently have great difficulty allowing the Bible to speak for itself. Looking for its hidden or mystical meaning, they completely miss its obvious historical meaning -- that is to say, its true meaning. For biblical revelation has always been primarily exoteric (plain and public) and not esoteric (cryptic and exclusive) (Isa. 45:19; 48:16; Mark 4:22; John 18:20; Acts 26:26). The God of the Bible made Himself known in history through prophetic words and miraculous deeds. Biblical salvation is therefore objective: it is first presented to the mind from outside sources as received through the five senses.

When New Agers subjectively remold Scripture in the image of esotericism they make a mistake a seeker of truth should never make. They presuppose that their own understanding of Ultimate Reality is the only possible one without seriously looking into opposing claims to truth.

We Christians should point out to such New Agers that they, too, are guilty of the "sin" of exclusivism. But while we exclude other views by forthrightly denying them, they do so by dishonestly affirming (i.e., redefining) them.

We are not asking them to blindly accept our interpretation of the Bible, but to seek an objective understanding of its teachings. If they find that it does present a view of reality in conflict with their own, we further ask them as truth-seekers to seriously consider the evidence in support of its claims before rejecting them.

Once New Agers agree to approach the Bible objectively, we have grounds for calling them to honesty when they take the Bible out of context. And once they begin to consider the claims of the Bible in context, the power of the gospel will have an opportunity to penetrate their minds and hearts.
