Doreen Virtue and I Agree on the Network of the Lies
I had wondered, since 2018 or so, what happened to Doreen Virtue, when she renounced her affiliation with all that had made her so popular? She abandoned all belief in magic, in my opinion, and I remember a time when I also felt the need to be grounded in traditional religion.
Doreen Virtue wrote in Christianity Today about her conversion away from New Age spirituality when she heard a sermon by Alistair Begg on the Christian Satellite Network.
Begg was giving an expository sermon called “Itching Ears.” It was about 2 Timothy 4 (v.3), where the apostle Paul writes that in the end times, people will want their itching ears tickled by false teachers who offer false hope
She described her feeling of conviction.
I could tell he was describing people just like me.
She recognized herself when she read in Deuteronomy 18:10–12 to see “divination, interpreting signs and omens, and mediumship” as profane. I agree with Doreen Virtue about her rejection of New Age positive thiniking and dabbling in spiritual realms that she came to see herself as
an “open-minded” Christian who was superior to all those narrow-minded followers who only believed in Jesus. For me, Jesus functioned as a “spirit guide” who, like a magic genie, helped me make my wishes come true.
She realized she had been dabbling, sampling
world religions, and I even had a necklace with symbols of all the major faiths. I believed all paths led to heaven and all religions were worshiping the same God.
Well, I still do believe that God is bigger than any definition than the sum of all that is. I remain a student of world religions as Ways of Knowing. The human traditions that have come by way of Revelation, in particular–the Muslim, Buddhist, Christioan and more–are treasures that define the greatest gifts that humankind can offer to posterity. I agree with Doren Virture when she takes a hard stand agaoinst what is a lot of bunk. Doreen Virtue has called it correctly when she identifies the self-serving, magical thinking found in New Age spirituality.
I agree with Doreen Virtue when she takes a clear stand against colluding with the kind of thinking I have written about before and plan to emphasize over the next month the reality described here by a singularly reliable source –when we believe in and promote positive thinking we are cultivating a mindset of denial that results in a failure to follow the Preparation for a world unlike what has been known before.
The core tenet of the New Age thinking that must be rejected is magic, magical thinking, “hopium,” or any mindset that encourages you to project your mind over reality.
The heart of the matter is stated as the definition of the program to pacify humankind:
True happiness comes from being true to yourself, from developing your own integrity and from living honorably with your integrity. True relationships are based upon sharing real integrity with others, building relationships of integrity, relationships that express your deeper nature and purpose in life.
However, look at the relationships of a pacified person, who says, “Well, we’re together as long as it feels good, as long as it’s okay, and if we’re not together, it’s okay, and whatever we do is okay.” But it is not okay. And they know it is not okay, but their natural knowing has been removed from their awareness. As a result, they say, “I will not feel those things. They disrupt my happiness, my peace, my equanimity.” And yet there is no peace or equanimity because there is no integrity, and because there is no integrity, there is no real relationship.
Do you see here how the poison is immersed in the very food that people want to eat? Spiritual food is being poisoned. How many spiritual teachers today are teaching real discernment? How many are promoting real personal integrity? How many are encouraging people to look clearly and see? How many teachers are encouraging their students to respond to the world? There are indeed some, but look around and you will see the Pacification Program being promoted unknowingly.
How perfect this is for the alien agenda. It takes time, but from their perspective, well, the results are worth it. The Intervention will then have a vast network of compliant people through which their agenda can flow. And the people will never know where it is coming from.
I have considered deeply how much the magical thinking from New Age metaphysics has influenced my own thinking and how much of it has been supported by Christian doctrine. What I now believe causes me to align with the rationalists, i.e., all other people against the Christian when it comes to their own special doctrine of salvation by faith.
