THE NEW AGE RELIGION HAS INVADED AFRICA: BE WARE OF HUMANISM: FAITH IN YOUR FAITH OR FAITH IN GOD: A scriptural critique of Ethan Musolini’s TIPS

THE NEW AGE RELIGION HAS INVADED AFRICA: BE WARE OF HUMANISM: FAITH IN YOUR FAITH OR FAITH IN GOD: A scriptural critique of Ethan Musolini’s humanistic succeeding tips



Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. (Proverbs 3:5)

Thus saith the LORD; Cursed be the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD(Jeremiah 17:5).

15And he said unto them, Ye are they which justify yourselves before men; but God knoweth your hearts: for that which is highly esteemed among men is abomination in the sight of God (Luke 16:15).

And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works(2 Corinthians 11:14-15).

18Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. 19For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness(1Corinthians 3:18-19)



18For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. 20Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? ….25Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men 1 Corinthians 1:18,19,20&25)

BEHIND NEW AGE HUMANISM’S SELF ESTEEM DOCTRINE IS THE THEOLOGY THAT HUMANS ARE LITTLE GODS(DEIFICATION OF MAN)

They are many success gurus in the world today. These men and women are excellent speakers with incredible oratory skills. They are telling people to think big, dream big, believe in your self, trust in your self, forgive your self . This is called Humanism or new age religion, or New age spirituality . This humanism is a hiss of the serpent. So, the serpent behind the lie of new age- humanism is telling us to believe in our self instead of believing in God. This humanism has stealthily crept into the born again churches especially the Pentecostal churches. Pentecostal pastors like Dr.Shulller, Rick Warren, Benny Hinn, Kenneth Copeland, Joyce Meyer, Creflo Dollar, Andrew Wommack, Late Kenneth Hagin etc are teaching new age-humanism, which they have given a Christian mask. Dr. Shulller is famous for his so called self esteem new age-humanism theology. The likes of Benny Hinn, Copeland, Frederick Price, have stealthily taught that we should have faith in our faith, instead of having faith in God. The word of God categorically cautions us to put our trust in God in everything we do and never to lean on our own understanding.(Proverbs. 3:5). Scripture categorically states that cursed is he who trusts in man(Jeremiah 17:5)

HUMANISM, CAPITALISTIC GREED, LITTLE GODS AND THE ANTICHRIST SPIRIT

The bible cautions us to prove all things (1Thesa.5:21) and to test spirits whether they are from God(1John:4:1). The major spirit behind new age-humanism is capitalism. You, see, capitalism thrives on greed, self indulgence etc. The more greedy people are, the more the capitalist make profits. The capitalists want people to be so greedy to extent of buying even what they do not need, living beyond their means, lusting after the things of the world, loving materialism, killing and shedding blood for the sake of greed. The capitalists know that the Jesus of the bible is an enemy to their plans, so they have created their own Pentecostal, designer Jesus who advocates for the gospel of materialism or prosperity gospel. Many Christians are in serious debts, because of the gospel of new-age-humanism. The main cause of the current financial crisis is humanism’s self esteem lie of thinking big, succeeding better than anyone, climbing high ad higher.

MR.ETHAN MUSOLIN’S NEW AGE-HUMANISTIC SUCCEEDING TIPS: GUYS, THERE IS NO GOD OUT THERE TO TRUST, YOU DO NOT HAVE A GOD IN YOU, THE ONLY GOD THAT EXISTS IS YOUR SELF.

I have been watching and reading success tips of a young brilliant man by the names of Ethan Musolin for quite some time. This young man is indeed an eloquent motivation speaker who is attracting many people. Many born again Christians are following prey to lies of satan. They easily believe somebody because he has put on an expensive suit, because he or she is eloquent. Many women do not care about the theology(enjoy every day lies) of Joyce Meyer, they really want to have the wealth of Joyce, they are thrilled(like a man sick with sexual desire for a beautiful woman (Proverbs 7:6-27)) by Joyce Meyer’s luxurious shoes, earrings, mansion, cars, dresses, trousers etc, .Many Christians think that Satan is a fool , satan is smart that is why, we like the angels must put our trust in God who is the smartest. Remember, Michael the arch angle told the devil, the lord rebuke thee(Jude 1:9). He never said I bind you. If angles trust in God, it is foolish for human beings to trust in themselves. Remember scripture says that man was created a little lower than angels(Psalms 8:5-check KJV and compare with fake NIV)

THE NEW AGE, FEMINISM, HOMOSEXUALS AND LESBIANISM

New age-humanism is greatly responsible for the upsurge of homosexualism, lesbianism and radical feminism. A little research around will show you that most of the gays and feminists are new age-humanists.

You are definetely worth so much more than you may think. What may be stoping you to believe the above statement is your level of self esteem.
In today’s Daily Monitor Newspaper, I published You are Worth all That and More in my weekly column.
How do you measure up with what it really takes to have a high level of self esteem? What do you need to do to claim the top echelons of self esteem heights? Could self esteem be the key until you realize your dreams?
You are worth much more that what you may think. That’s what spiritual teachers and sages have said and taught for ages. Read more…

Comments to Ethan Musolini’s article

That is so very true. When one realises that their own self worth is more than they had originally believed it to be then from that point they will be able to move forward and build their self esteem at the same time.
Terry,


You are right. Self esteem is the core. What’s even critical is for someone to reach a point where they believe they are worthy of great things in their life.
It’s funny because recently I was talking to a lady who is aspiring to be a member of parliament (MP) and wated advice from me. We shared a lot and towards the end, I challenged her to start seeing herself as an MP. Then she commented that when one of her friends started referring to her as an MP that she would “feel shy”.
You see, it means that at a certain level, she doesn’t feel worthy of the position. The faster she believes that she deserves no less than that, the faster she will be declared as an MP


Are you true to your self?

http://successsecrets123.wordpress.com/2008/04/04/are-you-true-to-yourself/

When I was growing up, my dad wanted me to either become a doctor or an engineer.
“When you are an engineer or doctor, you are assured of a job” he reasoned.

Right from high school, I set my eyes on the prize. I worked hard. I read hard. But somehow, physics and maths was never my cup of tea. Not even chemistry.

Finally, toward my end of high school, I had to choose between the red pill and the blue pill. Please my father or be true to myself and do arts subjects.
It was a Saturday. I had woken up in the morning at home and he was nearby me. Already awake. I gathered myself…

“Dad, somehow science subjects are not easy for me. I would prefer arts subjects” then I held my breath awaiting his scathing reply. To my surprise, he calmly responded “well, if they are hard for you, then do what comes naturally to you”
I switched my subjects around and concentrated on history, geography, economics and divinity. I scored high points which qualified me for government sponsorship at the university and did social sciences.

Now, am being paid to tell stories as a motivational speaker, consultant and author. As you can tell, am still sharing a story here. Would you blame me for taking history?

The crux of the matter is that there comes a time when you must be true to yourself. Being honest to what your heart tells you rather than what other people are advising you to do. Like Blaise Pascal put it “We know the truth, not only by the reason, but also by the heart”
Not that you shouldn’t listen to people’s advice. Give them space. If you feel it’s the right road for you to take, then by all mean thank them and walk along. If that’s not the case, then be courage and stand up for what you think is true for you. If not, you will be living somebody’s dream rather than yours.
More truth, love, joy, peace and abundance to you.

Are you chicken or an eagle?

M2: Features | July 28, 2009

By Ethan Musolini

Almost everyone I have talked to would rather be related to an eagle than chicken. And I believe that includes you. Right? Please say ‘right’ or else I will stop sharing the story right now. Good. Now, we all seem to love the ways of an eagle. It’s majesty, it’s standards, focus and ferociousness. But that also reveals the core of our being. That indeed we were born to fly. The inner part of ourselves seems to believe and rightly so that there is a greatness within us. And if you are like me, flying is greater and classier than scratching.

If you think you are part of the chicken’s republic, then you will feel comfortable in low class clothes, low class shoes, low class food, low class travel and low class everything. If you take on the eagle’s mindset and identity, you feel and behave like you deserve the best that life has to offer. Such a mindset will force you to work harder, work smarter, raise your standards and greater results will follow.



The late Anthony de Mello told a story that got me thinking. “A man found an eagle’s egg and put it in a nest of a barnyard hen. The eaglet hatched with the brood of chicks and grew up with them. All his life, the eagle did what the barnyard chicks did, thinking he was a barnyard chicken.

He scratched the earth for worms and insects. He clucked and cackled. And he would thrash his wings and fly a few feet into the air. Years passed and the eagle grew very old. One day, he saw a magnificent bird above him in the cloudless sky. It glided in graceful majesty among the powerful wind currents, with scarcely a beat of its strong golden wings. The old eagle looked up in awe. “Who’s that?” he asked.

“That’s the eagle, the king of the birds,” said his neighbour. “He belongs to the sky. We belong to the earth – we’re chickens.” So the eagle lived and died a chicken, for that’s what he thought he was.”

So, are you chicken or an eagle? Were you born to fly or to scratch dust with chicken? And I don’t mean going to Chicken Tonight as one famous chain that serves delicious chicken in Kampala. No, it’s a question for reflection.

Almost everyone I have talked to would rather be related to an eagle than chicken. And I believe that includes you. Right? Please say ‘right’ or else I will stop sharing the story right now. Good. Now, we all seem to love the ways of an eagle. It’s majesty, it’s standards, focus and ferociousness. But that also reveals the core of our being. That indeed we were born to fly. The inner part of ourselves seems to believe and rightly so that there is a greatness within us. And if you are like me, flying is greater and classier than scratching.

So then, what’s the moral of the story in Anthony de Mello’s tale? It’s subject to many interpretations. You can come up with your own version. My take is that sometimes we choose to listen to definitions of who we are that are not accurate. Especially definitions that demean us. Anything that is not a reflection of who you are but reduces your actual value is a declaration of your being a member of the chicken republic.

On the contrary, any definition of your greatness, even a hint to it is a declaration that you are an eternal citizen of the eagles republic. I prefer the latter. Anytime. Whatever your choice is or the identity you take on, it will determine your behaviour or performance. Let’s take that choosing to be part of the chicken republic is the lower class and eagles republic the higher class.

If you think you are part of the chicken’s republic, then you will feel comfortable in low class clothes, low class shoes, low class food, low class travel and low class everything. If you take on the eagle’s mindset and identity, you feel and behave like you deserve the best that life has to offer. Such a mindset will force you to work harder, work smarter, raise your standards and greater results will follow.

The last time I checked, you were legible for an Eagles Republic passport. Please hurry and pick one. The last thing I want to hear is that you turned to one of the chickens after seeing an eagle flying majestically and asked “who’s that?”

SEE, HOW HUMANIST FOOL PEOPLE BY TWISTING THE SCRIPTURES IN THE BIBLE: FORGIVE YOUR SELF

How to Forgive Yourself – Day #2 of 21 Days of Action with Forgiveness

http://julettemillien.wordpress.com/2009/03/02/how-to-forgive-yourself-day-2-of-21-days-of-action-with-forgiveness

http://en.wordpress.com/tag/forgive-yourself

Posted on March 2, 2009 by Julette Millien

Forgiving yourself is necessary!

Easier said than done right?
I know, words are so easy to say and truths to spout. But how do you really forgive yourself, if you don’t already have a habit of forgiveness?
An assumption is being made here and here it is: I am assuming that you believe that forgiveness is right and good; that it is the way to live that brings peace and joy. This is my assumption as I suggest the following.

Loving yourself; forgiving yourself is possible when you have a desire to or, you already love yourself. So are you “feeling” worthy of love – yours or someone else’s? Are you loving you?

If not, stay here for a minute and create a miracle. Change your mindset about that. Just do it.
• Decide that loving yourself is all that really makes sense.
• Decide that you are worthy of love because you exist. Period.
It might be different for you but for me,
• I think of God and the power of love.
• I think of the life of Jesus and how much He endured because of his love for me.
• I think of the healing and miraculous power of love, which is God and I wonder how can I be anything but lovable when I was created by, with and for love!
ONCE you are clear about being a magnificent creation of love, forgiving yourself becomes a natural outcome.

Not forgiving you for mistakes causes pain, guilt, stress, anxiety – why would you do that to someone you love?

Mistakes are common; they occur everyday, big ones and little ones. They are a fact of life. And NO ONE goes through life without making them.
Mistakes HOW we learn and how we GROW.

Thinking you are perfect and so mistakes are not forgivable is egotistical.
So get over yourself and accept your humanity – which by definition means you WILL be making mistakes! Then, move on from there and accept how lovable you are.
What’s the obvious next step?

Yes, FORGIVE yourself for all you have done or not done to this point SO THAT you can move on to live a life of love and wellness.
Without this forgiveness of self, you will not have the life of your dreams.
Day 2 Assignment:
1. Review your list of things (in your forgiveness journal) to forgive and select something you will see and feel differently about TODAY.
2. Write about that choice and why you are releasing the guilt.
3. Write out what you are forgiving yourself for on a piece of paper and ceremoniously destroy that piece of paper
4. Do Forgiveness Ritual – sent earlier
5. Check in with accountability partner and discuss forgiveness process, actions taken and your intentions
If anxiety sneaks in, just say ‘hey’ and stay on your program. Really!
Anxiety is adrenalin and a rush of adrenalin means you are living life to the fullest, or trying to!
Stick with what you know is right and try not to rely solely on your ‘feelings.’
In Light and with Love,
Julette

LOVE YOUR SELF

http://ayearinthenow.wordpress.com/2009/03/04/367

Would you like to…discover your destiny?…perceive your purpose?…validate your vision?…reinforce your relationships?…strengthen your self-esteem?…overcome your obstacles?…feed your faith? You can…this year! You can…by living in the now! You can…one day at a time! God is on your side! He is available to assist you in the pursuit of your potential as you develop the diligence to seriously search out your personal path for growth into greatness! Through seeking first His Kingdom and righteousness, you can become the person that he created you to be!

You can only find God’s Kingdom in the eternal “NOW” as you endeavor to experience Him in your everyday existence. Kingdom-seeking consists of a constant effort to embrace the now and a commitment to the continual conforming of your consciousness to it. This empowers and enables you to escape the mental distractions produced by living in the past or in the future, so that you can comprehend a real Christ for your current real circumstances!

A YEAR IN THE NOW is a devotional designed to deliver a doable format for the daily development of your eternal life – to help you think creatively, beyond your familiar, time-bound comfort zones. These positive and powerful affirmations will provide the help you need to progressively put your life on the right track in realistic increments. You don’t have to become overwhelmed by the tremendous task of trying to lead a “now life” in a “yesterday/tomorrow world”. You can do it day by day! This is your year to change your world! You can change your world by changing your mind! You can change your mind one day at a time! It’s time for a fresh start, and you can start right now!

“Jesus said, ‘Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence.’ This is the most important, the first on any list. But there is a second to set alongside it: ‘Love others AS WELL AS YOU LOVE YOURSELF.’ These two commands are pegs; everything in God’s Law and the Prophets hangs from them.” (Matthew 22:37-40 – The Message)”. . . he who loves his wife LOVES HIMSELF. For no one ever hated his own flesh, but nourishes and cherishes it, just as the Lord does the church.” (Ephesians 5:28, 29)

1. Today I will live in the now! I will live in the now, because the power of God’s unconditional love allows and enables me to live my life in the present. Because I am accepted in the Beloved, I can give myself permission to love myself as I am now, knowing that I am improving by continually being conformed to His image.
2. Today I will love myself without being conceited, arrogant, puffed up with pride, or condescending. I will not feel inferior to anyone else, nor will I feel superior to anyone else, but will be balanced and mature in the way that I relate to everyone around me.

3. Today I will love myself, and still maintain a mindset of servitude and humility. I will selflessly consider the needs of others by taking up my cross to follow Jesus.
4. Today I will forgive myself for the ways in which I have disappointed myself. I will stop being angry with myself, and punishing myself for my mistakes, having the same patience with myself that God has with me.

5. Today I will speak well of myself, building a healthy self-esteem with verbal building blocks. I will not sin against my own potential by speaking self-destructive words, but will say about my life what God says about it, because I am in agreement with His word.

6. Today I will be good and kind to myself. I will not feel guilty for doing something nice just for me, with no obligation to any bogus, religious ideas of my own unworthiness.
7. Today I will walk in the God kind of love with the people in my life, and will be a blessing to them. They will see Jesus in me today, and today I will live in the now!


Trump or Jesus: Think like a Millionaire

http://5minuteswithmolly.wordpress.com/2008/07/19/top-10-ways-of-thinking-like-a-billionaire-according-to-donald-trumps-best-selling-think-like-a-billionaire/

I have been reading a lot about Donald Trump recently, and find him and his hair to be very intriguing. Did you know he was once $8 billion in the hole? Yep. That’s ridiculous. He turned that around to be up 6 billion. That’s one fact I learned from the Trump Seminar I attended the other day.
Oh, and guess how many lucky billioanires are out there as per the realease date of this book? 587.
I believe in personally having a millionaire mindset, and continuously read books and take classes about becoming rich to keep be on track with things. I also surround myself with others that are smarter and that I can learn from.
Recently after the Trump Seminar I attended at the Marriott, we were all handed a copy of Donald’s newest book “Think Like a Billionaire–Everything You Need To Know About Success, Real Estate, and Life.” I decided to take some time and get started reading it.
I’ll blog more about my notes later in case you too are interested in learning how to think like a billionaire. But first though, I wanted to share with you what Trump considers the Top 10 Ways Of Thinking Like a Billionaire:
1. Don’t Take a Vacation. He says “what’s the point? If you don’t like your work, you’re in the wrong business.”
2. Have a short attention span. He says that the most successful people have very short attention spans, and that it has to do with imaginiation.
3. Don’t sleep any more than you have to. Trump says he goes to bed at 1AM and by 5AM he is reading the newspaper. Helps him have a competitive edge.
4. Don’t depend on technology. He says that if you have something to say, look the person in the eye and say it. He adds that if you can’t do that, give the person a call and make sure they hear the sincerity in your voice. Email is for wimps he says.
5. Think of yourself as a one-man army. He says that not only are you the commander in chief, you are the soldier as well, adding the fact that you must plan and execute your plan alone.
6. It’s often to your advantage to underestimate.
7. Success breeds success. Trump says that the best way to impress people is through results. He adds that you have to create success to impress people in the world of business.
8. Friends are good, but family is better.
9. Treat each decision like a lover. He says that if you treat each decision like a lover–faithfully, respectfully, and appropriately.
10. Be curious. The Don says that a successful people are always going to be curious. He continues by saying that you have to be alive to your surroundings and hungry to understand your immediate world. Otherwise, you’ll lack the perspective to see beyond yourself.


COMPARE THE NEW AGE HUMANISTS ABOVE WITH PASTOR DR. ROBERT SCHULLER

"Self-Esteem: The New Reformation"

http://www.crossroad.to/Quotes/Church/compromise/self-esteem-schuller.htm

What do I mean by sin? Answer: Any human condition or act that robs God of glory by stripping one of his children of their right to divine dignity. ... I can offer still another answer: `Sin is any act or thought that robs myself or another human being of his or her self-esteem.'" (p. 14)

"And what is `hell'? It is the loss of pride that naturally follows separation from God -- the ultimate and unfailing source of our soul's sense of self-respect. `My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?' was Christ's encounter with hell. In that `hellish' death our Lord experienced the ultimate horror -- humiliation, shame, and loss of pride as a human being. A person is in hell when he has lost his self-esteem. Can you imagine any condition more tragic than to live life and eternity in shame?" (pp. 14-15)
"Labels such as, `evangelical,' `fundamental,' `charismatic,' `liberal' contribute to polarization and produce a climate of implied or outspoken distrust. Respectful dialogue becomes virtually impossible. What we desperately need to offset this disunity and distrust is a new and cleansing theology of communication." (p. 27)

"Are we aware that theology has failed to accommodate and apply proven insights in human behavior as revealed by twentieth-century psychologists?
"A widespread tension has too long existed between psychologists and theologians. Both disciplines should be committed to the healing of the human spirit. Both can and must learn from each other. Neither one can claim to have 'the whole truth.' Conflict between theology and psychology points to a need for growth and accommodation until the contradiction in thought is reconciled on the altar of truth. What we need is a theological restructuring which synergizes scientific and spiritual truths as related to the human being." (p. 27)

"What is our Lord's greatest passion for his church today? Believe that he wants his followers to respect themselves as equal children of God and to treat all other human beings with that same respect. ... I believe we know that Jesus would say something like this to us: '...Receive and the enjoy the fruit of salvation: Self-esteem, self-worth. ...
"If the gospel of Jesus Christ can be proclaimed as a theology of self-esteem, imagine the health this could generate in society!" (p. 47)
"Many sincere students within the larger body of believers are turned off by a theology that offers nothing more than a classical heaven and hell proposition. The alternative theology of mission focuses on peace, brotherhood, and economic equality. And the tension between these two theologies of mission is strong in the church today. Somehow a strong fresh theology of mission must be articulated that will allow sincere followers of both points of view to merge mind, motive, method, and message." (p. 60) [The dialectic process -- merging opposites into a new truth]

"We are born to soar. We are children of God. ... The Fatherhood of God offers a deep spiritual cure for the inferiority complex and lays the firm foundation for a solid spiritual self-esteem." (p. 60)
"Classical theology defines sin as `rebellion against God.' The answer is not incorrect as much as it is shallow and insulting to the human being. Every person deserves to be treated with dignity even if he or she is a `rebellious sinner'." (p. 65)
"The core of original sin, then is LOT--Lack Of Trust. Or, it could be considered an innate inability to adequately value ourselves. Label it a 'negative self-image,' but do not say that the central core of the human soul is wickedness.
"... positive Christianity does not hold to human depravity, but to human inability. I am humanly unable to correct my negative self-image until I encounter a life-changing experience with non- judgmental love bestowed upon me by a Person whom I admire so much that to be unconditionally accepted by him is to be born again." (p. 67)
"To be born again means that we must be changed from a negative to a positive self-image--from inferiority to self-esteem, from fear to love, from doubt to trust." (p. 68)
"The Cross sanctifies the ego trip. For the Cross protected our Lord's perfect self-esteem from turning into sinful pride." (p. 75)
"Historical theology has too often failed to interpret repentance as a positive creative force. ... Essentially, if Christianity is to succeed in the next millennium, it must cease to be a negative religion and must become positive." (p. 104)

"Negative-thinking theologians looked at the doctrine of sin, salvation and repentance... through distorted glasses tinted with mortification mentality. Too many prayers of confession of sin and repentance have been destructive to the emotional health of Christians.... I am not fully forgiven until I allow God to write his new dream for my life on the blackboard of my mind, and I dare to believe 'I am; therefore, I can. I am a child of God. ... God has a great plan to redeem society.....
"The emerging church, reformed according to the needs of self-esteem-starved-souls under the Lordship of Christ.... will help us to affirm the concept that 'While god's ideas may seem humanly impossible, he will give us these ideas which will lead to glorious, self-esteem-generating success.'" (104-105)

"Protestants quote their Bible, Fundamentalists declare their orthodox theological dogmas, and we are all expected to renounce private reflection and peacefully acquiesce to these pronouncements. And the result is that the dignity of the person is violated by such oppressive, intelligence- smothering forms of communication."
"Christ is the Ideal One, for he was Self-Esteem Incarnate." (p. 135)
"...the kingdom of God is that invisible collection of committed Christians that transcends cultures, ideologies... and creeds-- all bound by the golden commitment to say nothing and do nothing that would attack the self-esteem, the self-respect, and the dignity of any other human being, whether or not they are committed members of the kingdom of God. The dignity of the person then is the irreducible cell of true Christianity." (p. 135)

"The tragedy of Christendom today is the existence of entire congregations of church members who are dominated by emotionally deprived or emotionally under-developed persons. These congregations have been accurately labeled `God's Frozen People.' ... And they do this by exercising narrow authoritarianism in doctrines and practices and by sowing seeds of suspicion and dissension in the religious community. ... By contrast, strong persons--self-assured personalities, whose egos find their nourishment in a self-esteem-generating personal relationship with Jesus Christ--dare to face contrary opinions, diverse interpretations, and deviations of theology without becoming disrespectful, judgmental, or accusatory." (pp. 153-154)
"The classical error of historical Christianity is that we have never started with the value of the person. Rather, we have started from the `unworthiness of the sinner...." (p. 162)

http://www.combineharvesting.com/new%20age%20faith%20%A0is%20being%20taught%20as%20bible%20faith.htm


1. THE NEW AGE book “The Secret” - p. 164 “You are God manifested in human form,”
“YOU are God in a physical body. You are Spirit in the flesh. You are Eternal Life expressing itself as You. You are all intelligence. You are perfection. You are magnificence. You are the creator,”

COMPARE - KENNETH HAGIN -“You are as much the incarnation of God as Jesus Christ was...” (Kenneth Hagin, "Word Of Faith" Dec. 1980, p. 14)
The meaning of the word ‘INCARNATION’. A theological term for the coming of God's Son into the world as a human being. The term ‘incarnation’ itself is not used in the Bible, but it is based on clear references in the New Testament to Jesus as a person "in the flesh" (Rom 8:3; Eph 2:15; Col 1:22).

But the joining together of deity and humanity that marks His incarnation did not come to an end with His ascension. Jesus took His resurrected body with Him back to heaven (Luke 24:51; Acts 1:9). In heaven now He is our divine Lord, our human leader, and the great High Priest who serves as a mediator between God and man (Heb 3:1).
(Nelson's Illustrated Bible Dictionary, Copyright © 1986, Thomas Nelson Publishers)

2. THE NEW AGE - Walsch, “You are the Word made flesh” Walsch, “Friendship With God”, p. 395.
*COMPARE - KENNETH COPELAND “Adam in the Garden of Eden was God ‘manifested’ in the flesh." (Kenneth Copeland, Following the Faith of Abraham I (Fort Worth, TX: Kenneth Copeland Ministries, 1989), tape #01-3001, side 1). Copeland is exactly copying the New Age teachings.

COMPARE WITH THE BIBLE: 1 Tim 3:16 “God was ‘manifest’ in the flesh,” KJV This scripture was referring to Jesus not any other man.
John 1:14 “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,)” KJV This is talking about Jesus Christ. This is putting YOU in CHRIST’S PLACE.
THE NEW AGE – You have the Christ ‘Karma’ in you. You are Christ!

3. THE NEW AGE, HINDUISM – MAN IS A GOD
COMPARE COPELAND -“YOU DON'T HAVE A GOD IN YOU, YOU ARE ONE."
(Kenneth Copeland, "The Force of Love" tape # 02-0028)
Col 1:27 “Christ in you , the hope of glory:” KJV

PAUL CROUCH Head of Trinity Broadcasting Network (TBN). “We are little gods.” (Praise the Lord (TBN), recorded 7/7/86)

BENNY HINN - "YOU ARE A LITTLE GOD ON EARTH RUNNING AROUND". (Benny Hinn, "Praise-a-thon" broadcast on TBN, November, 1990)

THE BIBLE: Isa 43:10 “before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me.” KJV
The Serpent said to Eve, Gen 3:5 “For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your -eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods” KJV Telling man that he would be a god was Satan’s first temptation to man.

4. *THE NEW AGE, Walsch, “Man is equal with God” Walsch said God told him, “There is only one of us. You and I are One.” Walsch, “Friendship With God”, p. 23, 26
HAGIN says “Man was created on terms of EQUALITY with God, no inferiority.” Hagin, “Zoe” p. 36. (See Article II “Man is a god”)

COPELAND says, “God is going to have a family of EQUALS.” Copeland, “Fullness: God’s Plan for His Family,” BVOV Magazine, July and August 2004, pg. 32.
COPELAND-“Pray to yourself, because I'm in your self and you're in My self. We are one Spirit, saith the Lord." (Kenneth Copeland, "Believer's Voice of Victory", Feb. 1987, p.9)
5. THE NEW AGE -“Man is not subject to God” Walsch, “Conversations With God”: Book 1, p. 41.
Copeland- Referring to Adam, Copeland said, “He was not SUBORDINATE TO GOD”” Copeland, (Fort Worth, TX: Kenneth Copeland Ministries, 1989), tape#01-3001, side 1). (See Article II, “Man is a god”).

6. *THE NEW AGE, Walsch talks about man becoming a “NEW SPECIES” Barbara Marx Hubbard “The Revelation” p. 65

Copeland talks about man becoming a “NEW SPECIES” (See Article II “Man is a god”)

7. *THE NEW AGE “The crucifixion didn’t establish the Atonement” p. 36 Helen Schuman “A Course in Miracles”
HAGIN- says, “Christ’s physical death on the cross was not enough to save us.” Kenneth Hagin, “How Jesus Obtained His Name”, Tape 44H01.

COPELAND- “It wasn’t a physical death on the cross that paid the price for sin…anybody can do that.” (Kenneth Copeland, “What Satan Saw on the “Day of Pentecost”. Audio tape #BCC-19), side 1. (In the Faith Movement, where are the songs about The Cross?”).

THE BIBLE 1 Cor 15:3 “Christ died for our sins” KJV
Eph 2:16 “And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross , having slain the enmity thereby:” KJV

A MAJOR MINISTER referring to Jesus said, “The blood itself did not atone.” (See Article III, “Perverting the Atonement” www.combineharvesting.com)

THE BIBLE: Lev 17:11 “for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.” KJV See Aritcle III, PERVERTING THE ATONEMENT.
Rom 5:11 “And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement .” KJV
Heb 9:22 “without shedding of blood is no remission.” KJV
Eph 1:7 “In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;” KJV
1 Peter 1:18-19 “Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:” KJV

8. THE NEW AGE writer Neale Donald Walsch in his book “Conversations With God” There are no ten commandments Chpt. 3, p. 375

E.W. Kenyon, “What Happened from the Cross to the Throne”, p. 50’
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS ARE DONE AWAY.

Smith Wigglesworth, “Healing, p. 81, the ten commandments are done away;

Hagin “Exceeding Growing Faith”, p. 61. “THE TEN COMMANDMENTS ARE DONE AWAY.
(See Article VII, www.combineharvesting.com God’s Plan of Salvation has been Corrupted)

COMPARE HAGIN-“So Jesus’ blood is precious because of its pacifying power; it pacifies not only the broken law, but also a GUILTY CONSCIOUS.” “The Precious Blood”, Hagin, p. 18.
1 Tim 4:2 “Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;” KJV

9. THE NEW AGE Walsch, “Sin doesn’t exist” Neale Donald Walsch “Conversations With God” p. 87.
Copeland says The blood of Jesus did not just cover sin, it remitted sin---did away with sin completely. Copeland “The Force of Righteousness”, p. 7. See Article VII)

THE BIBLE: Rom 3:23 “all have sinned , and come short of the glory of God;” KJV
1 John 1:7 “the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.” KJV
COMPARE HAGIN-“So Jesus’ blood is precious because of its pacifying power; it pacifies not only the broken law, but also a GUILTY CONSCIOUS.” “The Precious Blood”, Hagin, p. 18.
1 Tim 4:2 “Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron;” KJV

10. THE NEW AGE Walsch, “Conversations With God”, THERE IS NO HELL. p. Walsch, “Converstaions With God”, Book 2 p. 36.
HAGIN AND COPELAND AND THEIR ALLIES NEVER TEACH OR PREACH ABOUT HELL

11. THE NEW AGE Walsch, The New Gospel is based on “Revelation”, not the Bible. Revelation is the “New Word of God.” Neale Donald Walsch “Friendship With God” p. 295-296.
Hagin strongly infers that Rhema word or NEW revelation supercedes the Bible and that Rhema Word and Revelation are considered the Word of God. With Hagin, Rhema or revelation trumps the Bible.

12. THE NEW AGE Walsch, God is directly talking to him. “Conversations With God” book 3 p. 219.

Hagin, Copeland, Hinn, and their allies say God is directly talking to them.

13. The New Age uses Mark 11:24. The Secret p. 54, …but they pervert the scriptures to teach humanism, the doctrines of devils. How? They do this by leaving God out of these scriptures and just focusing on faith. They pervert this scripture my just making faith a formula, a spiritual law.

By Loren Davis : below is a basic comparison of the TEACHINGS OF THE New Age from one of its best selling books “the secret”, with THE TEACHINGS OF KENNETH HAGIN AND The Bible:
http://www.combineharvesting.com/new%20age%20faith%20%A0is%20being%20taught%20as%20bible%20faith.htm

Kenneth Hagin was a disciple of E.W. Kenyon and got much of what he taught through Kenyon’s books, even though Kenyon wasn’t Pentecostal.
KENNNETH HAGIN’S EXPOSITION OF MARK 11:22-24:

THE BIBLE: KJV Mark 11:22 says, “Have faith in God.”
Hagin says this could have been translated to “Have the Faith of God” or Have the God Kind of Faith”.
By doing this, he changes the scripture and removes God from the equation. Now he is teaching us instead of looking to God to answer our prayers, we need to seek to get the kind of faith God has, (copy God) then you can do what God does. That is exactly what Lucifer did. Lucifer tried to be like God, (copy God).

Now God is not the focus of one’s attention, but rather faith. Now they are teaching that faith gives you God’s ability to do what God does. This is absolutely exactly a carbon copy of what the New Age teaches. Their faith is nothing more than positive thinking; positive speaking and the exaltation of man. It is all about what man can do with his faith without God.
