A movie will be unveiled on April 5 that should get a prize for honesty
in blasphemy. Unlike the emerging church celebrity authors and speakers
who shuck and jive when asked direct questions about God, salvation,
and truth, The Moses Code is produced by those who will tell you right
out what they believe. What they do believe is breathtaking in its
Satanic audacity. In the movie trailer, promoters of The Moses Code
cheerfully announce that I AM is something all of us can say. Towards
the end of the clip, one young man looks up and into the camera and
tells viewers, “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” The website
says the following:
For the first time a major spiritual film release is being combined
with a worldwide prayer vigil focused on shifting the planetary
consciousness.
Join millions of people from every corner of the globe in learning the
most powerful manifestation tool in the history of the world. Then on
one momentous day we'll use the code to promote peace and compassion
for all beings through over 1000 gatherings worldwide.
This is the chance for humanity to use the Law of Attraction to create
peace on the deepest level.
Coming on the heels of The Secret, the New Spirituality teachers
featured in The Moses Code are in hopes that by teaching everyone about
the power of declaring themselves God, they can help along the “Shift”
in planetary consciousness that everyone is talking about today.
The Shift is the name of another movie under production featuring New
Spirituality gurus like Deepak Chopra and Marianne Williamson,
alongside leftist environmentalists like Al Gore and religious figures
such as Archbishop Desmond TuTu. Their message is the same, as though
it was taken from the same script.
“A massive worldwide phenomenon is in progress, offering seeds of great
hope for the future…We are in the middle of the biggest social
transformation in history, THE SHIFT.”
Working on the Evangelical end of things, emergent author Brian McLaren
is also promoting a Big Shift, calling his nationwide tour, The Deep
Shift Conference. A heretic who does not believe in hell and who
rejects the penal substitutionary atonement of Jesus Christ, McLaren is
taking his Shift Experience to Willow Creek Community Church in April
where he will be teaching youth workers and pastors from evangelical
churches across the country about how they need to change their
ministries to accommodate the Big Shift in thinking.
Emergent authors Phyllis Tickle and Tony Jones are also on board
promoting a big spiritual shift. They prefer to call it the “Great
Emergence”. Speaking at the Zondervan sponsored National Pastor’s
Convention this week, Phyllis and Tony have titled their speech, not
surprisingly, “The Great Emergence.”
What is emerging is another Jesus and another gospel. The Big Shift
that all of the New Spirituality gurus are buzzing about marks the
advent of the worldwide apostasy that is now upon us. Just as the Lord
assigns roles to fulfill in His Church, the enemy assigns roles for his
purposes. Over the two decades of researching the New Spirituality
teachers and the inroads they have made into evangelical churches, it
is evident to me that deception comes in many forms today on many
different levels. Whether it is the spiritual bubble gum from Joel
Osteen that serves to deceive the shallow masses or whether it’s the
quasi-intellectual postmodern poison served up to college students by
men like McLaren, Rob Bell, Tony Jones, Doug Pagitt, Dan Kimball and so
many others, it’s all deception working towards the same end.
It is one thing to identify the counterfeit Christ of Marianne
Williamson or the latest New Age author on the Oprah Winfrey Show
(Eckhart Tolle is her latest protégé ), but what happens when authors
published by the big “Christian” publishers are saying the same things?
What happens when our celebrity emerging church leaders are using the
same language, calling for the same things, and promoting the same
false doctrines that redefine Christ and the Scriptures as the New
Spirituality authors?
Compare these two quotes. One is from a popular emerging author and
speaker who spoke at a conference with men like Andy Stanley and Rick
Warren and regularly rubs shoulders with those in the new
Evangelicalism. The other quote is from one of the world’s leading New
Spirituality heretics. Can you tell which is which?
Quote 1
“The first of these five untheorized observations is that New Light
embodiment means to be “in connection” and ‘in-formation’ with other
Christians. Deeper feeling and higher relating go together. The church
is fundamentally one being, one person, a comm-union whose cells are
connected to one another within the information network called the
Christ consciousness. New Lights offer up themselves as the cosmions of
a mind-of-Christ consciousness. As a cosmion incarnating the cells of a
new body, New Lights will function as transitional vessels through
which transforming energy can renew the divine image in the world,
moving postmoderns from one state of embodiment to another.”
Quote 2
'Third Jesus' can be seen only when we move into a new human awareness
that will carry us beyond tribe, prejudice and even beyond our
religious systems. As a Christian, I welcome his insights into my Jesus
and his provocative call to me to enter the 'Christ Consciousness' and
thus to become more deeply and completely human.".
The first quote is from emerging author Leonard Sweet who spoke at the
Catalyst Conference in Atlanta, attended by thousands of evangelical
leaders from across the nation. It’s from his book, Quantum
Spirituality, in which he thanks New Agers Willis Harmon, Matthew Fox
and Ken Wilbur, to name a few, for their influence on him. The second
quote is from John Shelby Spong, in a book endorsement for Deepak
Chopra’s brand new book, The Third Jesus, which is a brazen
introduction of the cosmic Christ of the Big Shift everyone is talking
about. Both authors are talking about the same Christ-consciousness.
They are describing the same thing—one from inside of evangelicalism,
one from outside.
Both popular author Rob Bell and occultist/New Spirituality teacher,
Barbara Marx Hubbard, speak of being co-creators with God. Bell tells
us in his latest Nooma video, “Open”, that creation is unfinished and
that God needs us to be fellow creators with Him to finish the job.
…we have to understand that Jesus took very seriously the creation poem
Genesis, that the Bible begins with. And in this creation poem God
creates, but God creates things that are capable of creating more, and
so God creates trees but then gives trees the ability to create more.
God creates animals and plants and fish but then empowers them to
create more. And then God creates people, and gives them the ability to
create more. So everything in creation is essentially unfinished, God
leaves the world unfinished, and invites people to take part in the
ongoing creation of the world…
Hubbard’s occult “Christ” in her channeled book, The Revelation,
instructs us about our participation as co-creators of the world.
"Those of you who hear these words are to carry on the commandment
given to John two thousand years ago. You are not only to prophesy the
end, the tribulations, and the New Jerusalem, you are to act it out.
You are to discover the blueprint and become co-creators with God. You
are to see the first fruits of the NEW BEGINNING."
Yes, there is a Big Shift underway. The two spheres that were once
irreconcilably opposed to one another, (Evangelicalism and New
Spirituality) are coming together. The overlap has begun. But millions
of evangelical Christians in the pews are distracted. They haven’t
researched these issues. They don’t know their Bibles. They accept
without question whatever Zondervan or Thomas Nelson put out. They
watch the DVD’s their church screens like Rob Bell’s Nooma videos and
they don’t catch the language. It is slippery. It is subtle, but the
enemy is getting bolder with each passing day. There is a lack of
sobriety and vigilance, and now the enemy is walking boldly in the
front doors of our churches and Christian colleges.
At bottom, the New Spirituality blasphemers like the producers of The
Moses Code are more honest than the emergents when they state openly
that they believe they are the way, the truth and the life. At its
core, their message is the same as many within the emerging
“conversation”. The Bible is not a product of “Divine fiat”, Rob Bell
says, “it’s a human product.” (Christianity Today, 11/1/04) The end
result? We become God in our own minds. We can make things up as we go.
Where does it all end? Rob Bell ends up promoting doctrines of
demons---that we are co-creators with God, or rejecting the existence
of hell, or the atonement, like Brian McLaren. That’s where it all
ends. When you abandon a high view of Holy Scripture, your rebellion
will take you places you never dreamed you would go. At some point, God
blinds those who willingly believe a lie.
With the full counsel of God in our hands, we are without excuse if we
choose to participate in the Big Shift. The Shift is here, but those
who serve the risen, ascended and glorified Lord Jesus Christ will stay
separate. They will reject the anti-Christ doctrine of “oneness” of the
New Spirituality and they will stay faithful at all costs.
