Oprah's Grimoire

[thunderbyrd]

Oprah Winfrey is hosting a year-long study in the book "A Course in Miracles" on her radio show. This book is a grimoire of new-age witchcraft that denies the divinity of Jesus and teaches an un-Biblical spirituality. In the past, I had been willing to give Oprah the benefit of the doubt concerning her faith, but by this action, she has shown me, and anyone who knows the Lord, that she is no follower of Jesus Christ at all.

And here I was assuming she was a Christian. I wonder if Obama is aware his spokeswoman is endorsing witchcraft.

'"c. We are to rightly judge the doctrinal teaching of preachers and teachers by God's Word (Matthew 7:15-20; Acts 17:10-11; 1 Corinthians 14:29; Titus 1:10-16; 3:10; Hebrews 13:7; 1 John 4:1; Revelation 2:20-24). Peter and John both told the Jewish leaders to judge what they were saying to see if it was true or not according to God's Word (Acts 4:19). Paul tells the Corinthians to judge what he was saying (1 Corinthians 10:15). ''

Deuteronomy 18:14 (NAS) "For those nations, which you will dispossess, listen to those who practice witchcraft and to diviners, but as for you, the Lord your God has not allowed you to do so."

Acts 8:9-11 (NIV) Now for some time a man named Simon had practiced sorcery in the city and amazed all the people of Samaria. He boasted that he was someone great, and all the people, both high and low, gave him their attention and exclaimed, "This man is the divine power known as the Great Power." They followed him because he had amazed them for a long time with his magic.

Jeremiah 5:23 (NIV) But these people have stubborn and rebellious hearts; they have turned aside and gone away.

2 Timothy 3:6-8 (RSV) For among them are those who make their way into households and capture weak women, burdened with sins and swayed by various impulses, who will listen to anybody and can never arrive at a knowledge of the truth. As Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of corrupt mind and counterfeit faith.

We shouldn't judge the person, but the message is not of God, should be a warning to those who hear.

Lets pray for oprah

Kitty, i agree with you, i don't like to judge. but this is a matter of public deception. When i think about young people and young Christians who don't know any better, i will speak out.

I've said it before, Oprah is as far from being a Christian as you can get. I don't know if she'll start quoting passages from The Grand Grimoire or not (I am amazed somebody else knows about it!), but she is up to her arm pits in New Age thinking. Just five minutes listening to her XM station and there is no doubt.
