excerpt from article by Ray Yungen:
"New Age or Aquarian Christian. An oxymoron term describing someone who remains in his or her home church and professes the Christian faith but has incorporated various aspects of the New Age or Aquarian mindset into his or her life; ie Reiki [Therapeutic Touch], Chakras, Yoga, Mantra Medication, Soaking Prayer...
The buffet-style dining approach has become a hallmark of American religious sensibilities in the last twenty years—you take what you want and leave the rest, pick your espresso blend, but you still get coffee—pick your spiritual path, but you still get God. Whatever suits your spiritual tastes, you bring together. The result is hybrid New Age spirituality.
As the world moves further into becoming a full-fledged mystical society, it will become increasingly difficult to escape these ideas and practices. Christians must become aware of what is happening in order to make informed choices about things that may adversely affect them or those they love spiritually.
"So when the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food, that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree desirable to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate. Genesis 3:6
satan said, “I will be like the Most High” Isaiah 14:14.
He did not say he would be the Most High; he said he would be like the Most High. The word “like” here means to correspond to.
How could satan accomplish this mission? It is important to understand that satan is not simply trying to draw people to the dark side of a good versus evil conflict, he is trying to eradicate the gap between himself and God, between good and evil, altogether
Western society is enticed by practical mystics who deny, by their own proclamations, God’s plan of eternal salvation. Will the majority of mankind come to believe that all is one and there is no line to be drawn in the sand regarding good and evil?"
“Woe to those who call evil good and good evil.” Isaiah 5:20
