A forward that gives us pause....
We must best be aware of what the enemy is doing. But I am thankful that our God is stronger and more powerful than Oprah, Obama, and others who seek to destroy His Holy Name. The book of The Revelation tells us that God wins over evil! Praise His Holy Name!
Join with me in prayer for Oprah and the others that they will come to know the One and Only, True and Living Jesus as their Lord and Savior.

or
"Oprah and Friends" to teach course on New Age Christ
Jesus Christ being reinvented, redefined, and blasphemed and, this false
New- Age Christ teaching is about to make huge inroads into the world,
with the help of the queen of television talk shows, Oprah Winfrey.
Oprah Winfrey, beginning January 1, 2008, on her daily radio program will
offer a year-long course on the New Age Christ , in a lesson a day and
completely cover the 365 lessons from the Course in Miracles "Workbook."
Listeners will be encouraged to buy A Course in Miracles for the year-long
course, and an audio version, recited by Richard (John Boy
Walton) Thomas will be available on compact disc.
Those who finish the Course will have a wholly redefined spiritual mindset-a
New Age worldview that include the beliefs that there is no sin, no evil,
no devil. A Course in Miracles teaches its students to rethink everything
they believe about God and life, and, bluntly
states: "This is a course in mind training" and is dedicated
to "thought reversal."
The Course in Miracles -in reality-is the truth of the Bible turned upside
down.
Oprah told her television audience that Williamson's book, A Course in
Miracles was one of her favorite books, and that she had already bought
a thousand copies and would be handing them out to everyone in her studio
audience. Oprah's endorsement skyrocketed Williamson's book to the top
of the New York Times bestseller list .
A Course in Miracles is allegedly a "new revelation" from "Jesus"
to help humanity work through these troubled times. This "Jesus"-who
bears no doctrinal resemblance to the Bible's Jesus Christ-began delivering
channeled teachings in 1965 to a Columbia University Professor of Medical
Psychology, Helen Schucman.
One day Schucman heard an "inner voice" stating, "This is
a course in miracles. Please take notes." For seven years she diligently
took spiritual dictation from this voice that described himself as "Jesus."
Here are some quotes from the "Jesus" voice of A Course in Miracles
:
·
"There is no sin . . . "
· A
"slain Christ has no meaning."
· &n bsp; "The
journey to the cross should be the last ' useless journey."
·
"Do not make the pathetic error of 'clinging to the old rugged cross.'"
·
"The Name of Jesus
Christ as such is but a symbol... It is a symbol that is safely used as
a replacement for the many names of all the gods to which you pray."
· "The recognition of God is the recognition
of yourself."
· "The Atonement is the final lesson
he [man] need learn, for it teaches him that, never having sinned, he has
no need of salvation."
Popular author Wayne Dyer told his PBS television audience that the "brilliant
writing" of A Course in Miracles would produce more peace in the
world.
The Course in Miracles-based book, Forgiveness, continues to be sold in
Robert Schuller's Crystal Cathedral bookstore as Schuller prepares to host
a January 17-19, 2008, "Rethink Conference" at his Crystal Cathedral.
2 Timothy 3 (King James Version)
King James Version (KJV)
2 Timothy 3
1This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud,
blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent,
fierce, despisers of those that are good,
4Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of
God;
5Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such
turn away.
Christians.....Take heed!!
And PLEASE pass this one on.....if you never forward anything else!
