It's just ridiculous, guys, it really is. What really set me off, though, wasn't the fact that she wrote all this.

00:06

It wasn't necessarily that, you know, like if I saw it from somebody else who was Christian and be like, here, look, this is a list of all the evil things that New Age teaches you, it wouldn't have bothered me.

00:14

I'd be like, oh, it's just another Christian that, you know, was born in a very ignorant household or, you know, in a very ignorant church.

00:21

But this is a woman who has been, from what she says, raised in the metaphysical community and has seen metaphysical stuff all the time and has experienced it and has felt it.

00:31

Not just seen it or, you know, like studied it, but felt it. And if you study metaphysics and you practice metaphysics, you know what

00:37

I'm talking about. You understand that sense of energy that you can get that's pure, that's beautiful, regardless of what you practice in the metaphysical.

00:47

You know, if you're more into like witchcraft, like myself, or if you're more into paganism, or if you're more of a

00:55

Buddhist, you're that, you do, you know, your spirituality, as long as you connect, that's what's important.

01:01

And I'm assuming that she felt it too, at one point, before she converted to Christianity. And the fact that those times it wasn't,

01:10

I don't know, like, maybe it wasn't real for her, or it wasn't enough. But if Jesus comes to you, then, oh, then that's a different story.

01:17

That's the part that I was like, what? Like, you can get that from any religion, from any faith, as long as it's, because for me, religion, and faith, and spirituality, that's all, all it is, is a bridge to get you to the other side.

01:28

All it is, is a bridge to get you to God, to the universe, to Freya, to prayer, to whatever God, Jesus, whatever you worship, okay, or whatever you believe in, the way that you want to contact, the way that you want to speak to that entity, energy, whatever.

01:41

So for me, if you've had that experience before, why is it more important that you had it with, you know,

01:47

Jesus, you know, like, it just feels like if it's, it feels like everything else for her was like, eh, and then, oh, but it's

01:55

Jesus, so that one's the one that's really important. She has to bring people that don't want to be Christian, that don't want to go into this faith, that don't want to do this, that want to be in the metaphysical, and want to practice that, and then tell them, hey, you're going to go to hell for this.

02:08

This is not right. This is not good. Who the heck are you to say that? And I just don't approve of basically saying, hey, you know, this isn't cool, because it's not my

02:17

God. It's not what it says in my Bible. It's against Jesus. It's against God. No, no, it isn't. It's just another way to get to the source, whatever you want to call that.

02:25

Now, I mean, she was teaching us how to find our light, meditations, chakra clearing, all that stuff. So then she turns and says, that was all the devil's work.

02:32

That, that wasn't right. I was wrong to teach that. And so she's like, follow Jesus, follow Jesus. So following Jesus, not a bad thing.

02:39

It was just the fact that she was turning everything she said, which a lot of people call new age, and saying that that was wrong.

02:45

And this is now right. I was wrong. I was blind. I was whatever. So here is my interpretation of this.

02:51

So I don't know where this Michael guy comes in. I feel like he had something to do with it. So if you know, if you've been following the world events in the last couple of years, you will know that a lot of things we thought were real and with integrity are actually were compromised a long time ago and have been operating out of with a negative agenda, let's say.

03:12

So when I realized she made this shift, what I feel happened was, she was a very, very prominent force in the world, teaching people to find their own light and to be of service and to do good and to read energy and all of that stuff.

03:29

And in the grand agenda, they don't want that. They want you numbed, dumbed, slaved, and not not finding light, not working with light, just kind of encourage everybody on TikTok and beyond to challenge the views of Doreen Virtue.

03:45

Doreen Virtue is a very intelligent woman. She knows exactly what she's doing. She is encouraging a fear -based

03:51

Christianity. And it's a very dangerous Christianity. And it's a very intolerant one. And it causes a lot of sadness and upset in families.

03:57

And I could go on. But if you're watching this video, please challenge Doreen Virtue on any kind of social media, figure out her story, and then give your view on social media, because she's very powerful on social media.

04:09

And her prejudice views need to be challenged because Doreen Virtue and her view of the Bible is not the only view of the

04:15

Bible out there. There's lots of different viewpoints, but you wouldn't know it the way she talks about it. Conservative Christianity became the next path she wandered down.

04:24

What's so interesting about this is a lot of the stuff she talks about are based in Old Testament teachings.

04:31

There's some in the New Testament, but she's really basing a lot of her judgments of self on the Old Testament. She's actually looking at the

04:37

Bible as an infallible document. She's now saying, this book is infallible, and she's going to burn in hell.

04:42

She actually got so scared, she fell on her knees, she begged Jesus to save her and not let her go to hell. She succumbed to her fear.

04:49

She succumbed to fear. The Bible itself says, I shall fear no evil, for thou art with me. The Buddha said, the secret to enlightenment is eradication of fear.

04:58

She succumbed to fear. And because that was her new path, she now follows a very fear -based, dogmatic, you're going to burn in hell sort of belief.

05:07

That is the path she is now wandering. When I was in the new age, I thought that I was following Jesus. It turned out

05:12

I was following the false Christ that Jesus warned about in the latter days. And the false

05:17

Jesus says, I love everything, I love everyone, and kind of does this swoop on what you said on the greatest commandment to love people.

05:25

And says that if you love people, then anything they do is fine. Just accept them as they are, which is actually the most unloving thing we can do when we understand the biblical truth, because that's leading them to hell, the wide path.

05:40

The narrow gate is a gate of realizing that we're sinners. And when

05:45

I realized that, it was actually such a relief to realize that I needed God and who God was.

05:51

And I needed Jesus to save me and steer my life, that when I looked back on my life, that I had done a horrible job of being my own

05:57

God. And so I quit. God, take over the will, please. And it was scary, because I was super successful in the new age.

06:05

I was making a ton of money, spending a ton of money, because I had employees. I had friends who I would take on first -class vacations everywhere.

06:11

I had this big ranch filled with animals. I was feeding them. And taxes galore that I was paying.

06:17

And I had to walk away from all that in complete trust that God would help me. I was just talking about the truth, the biblical truth on social media.

06:26

And I was getting so much backlash. I still do. But in the beginning, it was horrible. It was all these so -called people of the love and light new age hating on me, making these rude videos about me, making up stories about me, writing cuss -filled letters.

06:38

A lot of new -agers will tell you that, that they're doing God's work, and that Christians are not doing God's work because it makes people unhappy.

06:44

This is their litmus test. And so when I saw in Deuteronomy 18 that what I was doing made me an abomination to God, it broke my heart.

06:51

I was on my knees crying and weeping, maybe three days of begging God to forgive me and just saying,

06:58

I didn't know, God. I didn't know. I didn't know. Over and over. I'm so sorry. I didn't know. And then the more

07:03

I read the Bible, I saw that hell is real. In the new age, it's considered to be a metaphor that you have hell or heaven on earth.

07:11

And in the new age, it's universalist. The belief is everyone goes to heaven. All paths lead to God.

07:16

So it's pluralistic, relativistic, and universalistic. So you can do no wrong in the new age is the bottom line.

07:24

When I read that I had done grievous wrong, that's when I was saved. So what's the truth?

07:30

Are all religions a bridge to God? Do we simply need to find our path, come into the light, and love others as they are and help others find their own path to the divine?

07:41

Dear new ager, I perceive that in every way you are very spiritual. I've watched your videos and observed your teachings and the gods you worship.

07:50

What therefore you worship as the divine, this I proclaim to you. The God who made the world and everything in it, being

07:57

Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in idols made by man, nor is he accessed through an inner light.

08:04

He is holy, set apart from his creation, yet gives to all mankind life and breath and everything.

08:11

And he made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods in the boundaries of their dwelling place, that they should seek

08:21

God and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him. Yet he is actually not far from each one of us, for in him we live and move and have our being.

08:30

And even some of you have said, for we are indeed his offspring, being then God's offspring.

08:36

We ought not to think that the divine beings like gold or silver or stone, an image formed by the art and imagination of man, for these are idols.

08:48

Neither is God some experience or feeling, no matter how at peace you may feel with the divine.

08:54

For it's clear that the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth.

09:04

For what can be known about God is plain to us because God has shown it to us. For his invisible attributes, namely his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived ever since the creation of the world in the things that have been made.

09:23

So we are all without excuse. For although you think you know

09:28

God, you do not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but become futile in your thinking, and your foolish hearts are darkened.

09:37

Claiming to be wise and know the light, those in the new age become fools by exchanging the glory of the immortal

09:44

God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and other creeping things.

09:51

You exchange the truth about God for a lie and worship and serve the creature rather than the creator who is blessed forever.

10:00

Amen. We are all given up to a debased mind to do what ought not to be done, filled with all manner of unrighteousness, evil, covetousness, malice, full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, maliciousness.

10:15

We are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, haughty, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless.

10:29

Though man know God's righteous decree that those who practice such things deserve to die, we not only do them but give approval to those who practice them.

10:41

So, you think you are good and that all are right with God, but we are not.

10:47

For God is love and truth and righteousness, but God is also just, and in his justice must punish all who transgress his law.

10:58

The question you need to ask, just like Dorian did, is do you keep his commands?

11:04

Do you love all people with perfect, unselfish love, rooted also in truth?

11:12

None is righteous, no, not one. No one understands. No one seeks for God.

11:18

All have turned aside. Together they have become worthless. No one does good, not even one.

11:24

Their throat is an open grave. They use their tongues to deceive. The venom of asps is on their lips.

11:31

Their mouth is full of curses and bitterness. Their feet are swift to shed blood.

11:36

In their paths are ruin and misery, and the way of peace they have not known. There is no fear of God before their eyes.

11:46

Now we know that whatever the law says, it speaks to those who are under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped, and the whole world may be held accountable to God.

11:57

For by works of the law, no human being will be justified in this sight, since through the law comes the knowledge of sin.

12:05

We all know we sin. We all stand condemned. But now the righteousness of God has been manifested apart from the law, the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe.

12:20

For there is no distinction. For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified by His grace as a gift through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, whom

12:33

God put forward as a propitiation by His blood to be received by faith.

12:38

And He commands now all people everywhere to repent, because He has fixed a day on which

12:45

He will judge the world in righteousness by a man who He has appointed, and of this

12:51

He has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead. This Son whom God raised from the dead is the only way, because He is the only propitiation for your sins to satisfy

13:03

God's eternal justice. This Christ Jesus, who you think was just a man showing us a way to God, not only claimed to be

13:13

God, but claimed to be the only way to Him. He is the only way, because He is

13:20

God in flesh who was sent to obey God perfectly and condemn sin in the flesh, so that all who repent and trust in Him will be reconciled to God.

13:29

Eternal justice and wrath was placed on Him so that we by faith may live in Him.

13:36

Christ is the way, the truth, the light, and the life.
