Pray for Oprah, the Goddess of Daytime Television

"For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths." 2 Timothy 4:3-4 NIV.

The goddess of daytime television, the queen of feel-good-ness, the monarch of New Age publications and the paradigm of peace at all cost, has scaled the heights of pompous idiocy and declared herself, godlike.

That's right, the ruler of Winfreyville, Oprah the great, who has wooed her audiences with new cars, houses and glimpses of celebrities behaving badly, has arrived at the pinnacle of secular greatness and spiritual heresy.

On her daily XM Satellite Radio program "Oprah and Friends" you can now participate in "A Course in Miracles"; 365 days of anything BUT Jesus! Three hundred and sixty five days bathed in the spirit of anti-Christ.

Oprah has gone overboard and is taking millions of devoted fans with her.

ARE YOU ONE?

If I seem too harsh or critical, it's only because this is a frontal attack by satan that many people with little or no knowledge of the Bible are going to eat up like a free buffet at Texas Roadhouse.

Let's take a quick glance at the origin of "A Course in Miracles."

First of all, it's nothing new.

It dates back to the mid '60s when a Columbia University Professor of Medical Psychology Helen Schucman claimed that Jesus was speaking to her.

Funny how the Jesus that was speaking to Ms. Schucman bore no resemblance to Jesus Christ of the Bible. The New Age theology espoused by Ms. Schucman's revelation sounded pleasing to the ear but contradicted God's Word.

"A Course in Miracles" has reappeared for the last three decades in one form or another.

It is quoted in many New Age publications.

I am going to suggest that you read the ORIGINAL course in miracles: The Bible!

Friends, be very careful what you expose yourself to; measure all "new revelations" and "teachings" by God's Word and not by the glitz and glamor of Hollywood or the opinions of others. Just because it sounds good doesn't mean it's Gospel.

Finally, don't allow your life to be one witch hunt after another.

You can expend an incredible amount of time and energy chasing after satan. Don't worry, he'll find you; you don't have to go looking for him.

Time is better spent in prayer, study and reflection on God's Word, the Bible.

The only way you will ever be able to discern truth from lies is to know the truth. Truth becomes the benchmark by which everything else is measured.

Pray for Oprah Winfrey.

Jesus Christ died for her and only His truth can set her free.

She is searching for something to answer life's questions; she should be searching for Someone.

His name is Jesus.
