"QUEEN" OPRAH AND A NEW AGE CHRIST

I have never been a fan of Oprah Winfrey, and I realize this statement may cause some to want to revoke my "black pass". However, I just received an article that could cause a shift in many people's thinking of her.

It appears that Oprah has teamed up with a New Age leader by the name of Marianne Williamson, and has started a year-long teaching on her XM Satellite show called "A Course in Miracles". This teaching is designed to get an individual to have a New Age worldview in comparison to the Biblical Worldview that God commands that we all have.

Listen to some of the lessons that this course will teach:


Lesson 29 (which happens to be today's lesson) teaches that God is in everything and that love is all around. God can even be in coat hangers, wood, and waste baskets if one believes it.

Lesson 61 teaches that you are the light of the world instead of Jesus (John 8:12)

and Lesson 70 teaches that salvation comes--not from Christ--but from the individual.

In short, Oprah Winfrey is behind a teaching that is heresy at its essence, and we should pray for God to put a halt on this wicked system that--if not redeemed from--will draw many (Oprah and Marrianne included) into eternal destruction.
