Does anyone else see a link between the "New Earth" teaching with WOF teaching? I didn't read the book, but I have seen Oprah's promotion on it.

Deb,
Yes, the links are there between Oprah's frequently promoted materials and the Word of Faith movement. In a series of talks given a few years back I noted that the Word of Faith movement/teachings is nothing more than New Age/Pantheism packaged and repackaged for modern day Christian consumption.
For example, a recent look at Oprah's promotion of 'The Secret'.. if you are familiar with contents and running theme of the book you will clearly see the parallels between what it advocates and what many Word of Faith proponents teach from the pulpit.

In case anyone's interested, the webcast last night went down and was largely unwatchable. No harm in praying it goes down each night, is there?

Ok I don't think Oprah is the anti-christ,(by promoting this book she is a anti- christ) the false prophet maybe. She has for the first time openly endorsed a candiadate! A candiadate that has risen swftly to the most popular man in the world and who's concern is to bring all people and faiths together. Think about it. And though she doesn't hold the title preacher she does influnce the minds of many people or as another poster wrote "leading captive silly women" I had never thought of that verse that way but when you think about it who is Oprah's main audience. Also the Bible teaches "that by their fruits ye shall know them" so don't be afraid to call it like it is, also don't be decived by apparent goodness and good deeds "Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them I never knew you: depart from me ye workers of iniquity." (Matt. 7:22-23) "And no marvel, for Satan himselfis trnasformed into an angel of light. Therfore it is no great thing if his ministers also be transformed as the ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be accourding to their works." (2 Cor.11:14-15)
just some food for thought.

Matthew-24:24-25 Jesus said: " For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect---if that were possible. See, I have told you ahead of time."
Matthew-7:15 Jesus said: " Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves."
John-16:4 Jesus said: " I have told you this, so that when the time comes you will remember that I warned you."
All we need to know and obey, is his word, the Bible.
All I need to live, is to believe the word of God! Peace

I'm not at all surprised that Oprah would do or start some anti-christ movement like this, she's not a Christian. Many times I've flipped her shown on and saw that she was speaking with a medium or someone who talks to spirts and stuff, that lets you know right there she ain't all that good.

I would only concern myself with Oprah's ideals if they were emulated by christians.
The sad thing is that there are many Christians who watch her show and believe that she is a Christian.

Up until I read this I had not heard of Oprah's promotion of this. I happened to be on Snopes this morning and read more of the background on the whole thing. What a shame that she may be ultimately influencing so many to turn from the "REAL" Christ toward something of hers (or someone elses) creation.
Yep, as several have said, time to really start praying for those that may be easily lead astray.

I think we also need to remember that this sort of thing has gone on since the beginning of creation and not jump to our rapture guns preaching "the end is near!" We view it in isolation when over history every generation has tried to re-invent spirituality. Yet, the TRUTH has outlasted even the best of the bunk.

Greetings! What a shock, Mammon disciples with a little currency decide that they are better than God's plan for eternal possessions! As it is written, you cannot serve both God and the love of money or Mammon which is the demon of greed. You will be devoted to the one and despise the other. But, with God all things become possible through Christ Jesus' Merciful forgivenesses.

I'm in and out very quickly today--busy, busy, busy, but I just received this link today
in my email:
Oprah's indoctrination--training in miracles!
Talk about 'anti-Christ' methodology!
I wonder if this will be moved from this forum--I hope it to have full exposure all over the forums!
Not that we can do anything about it--but it will be a 'heads up' to keep 'looking up' and praying
for her eyes to be opened to the truth and the lie from the pit she is part of perpetrating!
Wonder how 'Obama' feels about this effort and his identifying with her or vice versa?

I did some checking on Snoops.com and maybe I am covering something that has been posted already, if I am I am sorry but I feel that rumors and one thing and the TRUTH is something totally different. (Even if OPRAH, thinks otherwise.)
But when you go to Snoops.com, they give a link to the website for the XM Radio show. NOTE that those listed as ones that will be on the show and on her staff. In this list is the woman that wrote this book. She is listed as "Spiritual Advisor" to the show.........HUMMMMM! I wonder who's gospel their are going to use? The one of this human or the one of the True and Living GOD! My bet is not God's!
Just one more reason not to watch OPRAH, like I needed anymore reasons.....LOL!

Has anyone heard about Oprah's newest craze? She is having live webinars every Monday evening regarding a book called: "The New Earth". In this they actually say "I am" as who they are. They are out right claiming to be God. The sad thing is...I actually think Oprah is clueless on this matter. I think they are just using her. This woman really needs our prayers, because they know exactly what they are doing.

It's such a shame. But we have to remember that the folks who follow this nonsense are like those who eat cardboard, while we eat steaks. None of this will satisfy them and may even push some onto Jesus.

How about if everyone that reads this forum posts the truth on Oprah's message boards? I think that I may start now...anyone want to join me? I'm disgusted about this.
