Looks like a spin off of the New Age movement.
Anyone involved there is on a dangerous and deceptive path.

You were not around awhile back when I had posted this, but I had the tv on one evening on Christian TV. There were these 5 Ministers who were talking about how the year 2007 was going be the year that the poor in Spirit reaped. They talked about people like me who wanted their own home so badly would get theirs this year. It sounded so good and how could 5 people all be wrong? But then the Holy Spirit reminded me that in the days of the Bible God did not send out 5 Prophets to declare His Message and often the Kings had 5 or more so called prophets who were not of God. I came here and David was able to help me see that just because 5 people said it doesn't make it so. Why am I bringing this up now? It is because it is just like you said, there are people out there who are putting false Gospel in Pretty packages and makes it look so good. Just because a Pastor has a big following doesn't mean he speaks the truth. Now don't get me wrong, you can have a big Church and still preach the truth. Pastor Johnston in Kansas has a large Church and he does preach the truth but many preachers on tv preach only what people want to hear.
Thanks for sharing this and I am happy to see you around more. With GramaJo and you, it feels like old home around here. I appreciate both of you. Grama Jo is a good prayer warrier and she has often given me strength to make it through her prayers and God has blessed you with a spirit of understanding and reporting false preaching. I pray God will bless both of you.

![[thumbsup2]](graemlins/thumbsup2.gif) Amen Sis! The Enemy is getting really slick in these last days and it's getting more difficult to 'discern' some of these false teachings... especially with all the 'new translations' out there. But I think that's the whole point of those 'new (supposedly easier to understand ![[Roll Eyes]](rolleyes.gif) ) translations'

I Have. My family used to attend "Cedar Ridge Community Church" Years Ago where Brian Mclaren was the pastor for years. He's one of the Major Teachers and considered one of the Leaders of this Emergent Movement.

Emergent Church Movement
Must See DVD on Emergent Church/Contemplative Prayer and how it is Identical to New Ageism[/b]
If you want an Indepth explanation of What the New Age Beliefs and practices are and how they are identical to Contemplative Spirituality, you’ve Got to get this video!!!!!! I Just Watched it and WOW!! Every Pastor who CARES about the Integrity of Gods Holy Word and how HIS People are to seek HIM Needs to watch this! I HIGHLY Recommend This!
www.onetruthministries.com/new_age2_j_dvd.html
From The New Age To Jesus Christ
DVD Ordering
Description: The New Age to Jesus DVD features two 90-minutes segments.
The first segment is my testimony and my refutation of New Age beliefs. The second segment addresses the dangers of Contemplative Prayer, Interspirituality and the ecumenical movement behind it. This seminar was performed at Twin City Fellowship Church on April 23, 2005.
The DVD is $15.00 plus $3.00 S&H. You may purchase the New Age to Jesus DVD by Visa or MasterCard by clicking on the button below or you may send a check or money order. If you choose to mail a payment, please email me and I will give you the mailing address. If you are ordering from overseas additional postage may be necessary.
What others are saying about the DVD:
I got the DVD and it exceeded my expectations. Your presentation is concise enough and laced with enough contemporary humor to relate to the younger generation.
Tom S. Rochester N.Y.
I have finished your DVD. It was brilliant!!! Bravo for you. Very understandable and clear! Every pastor in the country should get it. You certainly have my recommendation and commendation!
James Sundquist
President Rock Salt Publishing
I just finished watching your DVD. Yours is a very important message for Christians and non-Christians alike, especially at this critical point in history. Thank you for sounding the alarm and sharing your personal journey through the New Age maze. The similarities of these Eastern practices to the Contemplative Prayer movement's methods is both striking and disturbing.

I agree, DD. In fact, denominationalism (sectarianism) is a Mortal Sin that will condemn a person. It is stated in just so many word by Apostle Paulos in Galations.
That is why I teach that the Ecclesia is to be One Holistic Katholic Ecclesia of Xristos. It is to be unified in Truth, Faith, Understanding, Doctrine, Practice, Beatitude, and Discipline.
This is why it is of such high import to defend the Faith of Xristos.
The Eucharist should be taken by any baptized believer holding good conscious before God.
It should be taken as often as possible in Memorial of Xristos.
It should be taken as the Body & Blood of Xristos, and kept Holistic.
If we do not take the Eucharist, we are not sharing in the Communion of the Body of Xristos, and therefore we have no life in us.
That is why the Eucharist is called a Sacrament, or Mysterion. The meditations on the Eucharist and Our Communion with the Lord leads us into progressive stages of illuminated consciousness and Unity with the Patros.
We are in fact, eating and drinking with Xristos in the Celestial Kingdom when we break the Bread of Life & drink the Wine of Life which is given in the Cup of the Lord.
This Opus of Faith is echoed back to us both in life and blessing. And this is the real Mysterion of Transubstantiation.
When we invoke the name of Xristos in the Memorial Feast, which is the Cup of Blessing, we drink the Sacred Wine, and eat the Sacred Bread. Yet, herein is where Xristos performs the miracle of the Eucharist.
When we do this Opus of Faith, Xristos answers back from heaven and M Y S T I C A L L Y gives us of the Virtue & Efficacy of his very Self within the Bread and within the Wine.
They are in fact M Y S T I C A L L Y translated into more than the sum of their parts, and we are endowed with both Grace and Fellowship with Xristos in the Celestial Planes. For the Kingdom of Heaven is not in Word alone, but also in Power.

Dan Kimball said it best:
"Please don't make a conclusion or talk about "the emerging church" based on reading or hearing about only one or two people and think the whole "emerging church" is all the same. Even the leaders you probably are critical of always are saying they don't represent everyone. None of us represents everyone. But, please ask us questions, please visit our churches. Don't fall into believing urban legends or over-generalizations without checking them out. Please don't stereotype the emerging church anymore."

No, battles here, only dialogue.
Take a break. Often we can get too caught up in the bbs forums.
Pray and Meditate.
Be at Peace in Xristos.

Wow! Someone else who sees the deceptions clearly!
You said this new church is the **** of Babylon, I would agree... especially since one of the major agendas is to regroup churches (and even other religions) under Rome's authority (The RCC - Mother of Harlots IMHO)
But I've got to ask, why "Xristos"? I've never seen that used before? Where does that come from? In Messianic Circles we call Jesus "Yeshua HaMachiach" (Jesus the Messiah)
I ask you not to judge Rome prematurely. Remember, the papal claims of preeminance did not arise until the late middle ages.
For a thousand years, Rome, Greece, Israel, and Russia, and England held communion.
Rome is the ***** of Babylon, but only because it has been taken over by generational Sethite Satanists.
The Roman Rite, The Eastern Rite, and the English Rite still hold the Creed of Faith. They still hold the Sacraments, or Seven Mysterions.
The work of Katholic Reformation and Restoration must still continue until we all arive to the Unity of Faith in One Holy Katholic Church.
I can have communion with an Anglo or Greco Katholic. But the Roman Episcapacy MUST cease its unscriptural claims of preeminance before full commmunion is again established.
Moreover, the tradition of paganized Eclecticism MUST be wholly driven out of the Ecclesia on earth again, that we may once again speak a Pure Tongue, and not in the Half-language of Ashdod.
I have nothing against a purified Emergent church, but not simply the same old cliches.
Prayer to Mary and the Saints MUST cease in the Katholic communion. There is no place for it, and it is emphatically unscriptural.
Baptism MUST return to whole water immersion in order to inact the scriptural Sarcament.
Transubstantiation MUST be properply understood again as parabolic translation in order for the Miracle of the Mass to be Unified.
We call for the Anglo, Roman, Grecian, Marionite, Coptite, and Palestinian Churches to RID themselves of the traditions of men, and return to the Purity of Faith once delivered to the saints.
Yes, the Church still holds the sacraments, but why muddle the waters by these destruction heresies of men and devils, we ask?
It will not do. Ecclesia Xristou shall be PURE and SPOTLESS before God. On this we insist, and the Scriptures will bear us witness.

'Xristos' comes from the Greek New Testament and Septuegent. We get the English word 'Crisen' 'Crisened' therefrom. It means Crisened, Unctioned, Annointed, as does the Heb. 'Meshiach'.
All Xristians are to have the 'Xristening' of the Holistic Aire - Xristos in you, the Hope of Shekinah, Auraole, Nimbus, or Glorification.
It's been used by most Xristians for about 2000 years now.
An early acronym of EX (Ecclesia Xristou) was Ihsous Xristos Theou Uios Soter (Jesus Christ the Son of God and Savior) to formulate IXTHUS -- grk., The Fish.

Hello
Just thought that I would add another link to this blog. I have been hearing about this emergent church movement over the last few months and just recently received a news letter from Rodger Oakland that I thought was interesting.
web page
He has other articals on his webpage concerning the emergent movement that I beleive are worth looking at but I think that this is his latest.
Thank's Rick

I have no sense of direction. If I was in a maze, I would be so afriad of getting lost, that I would not know how to pray. When I go to the mall, I can never remember which way to go when I leave each store.
Seriously, I believe the idea of walking a maze to pray is stupid. Now I do like the idea of praying for each neighbor as you walk around the block. I usually don't do that, simply because I listen to praise and worship music as I walk and although I am praying I ususally forgive to pray for each apartment, that we pass.

Yeah, I went into a church week that I visited in other states (episcopal) and they had the picture on this site http://onetruthministries.com/Labyrinth.htm
posted on the wall. I found it rather disturbing. For those of us who know and love God understand that walking a path with the Lord can be mazelike enough so why in the world would I want to walk in a maze and pray.

BEWARE The Emergent Church Movement and that which calls its self “Spirituality”!
Below is a link to a document you can print out (or read online) explaining what the Emerging Church Movement is. I Pray everyone will Examine this! This is a HUGE Deception which is overtaking many churches these days:
