Wide is the Gate: The Emerging New Christianity Volume 3

Description

This final volume of Wide is the Gate: The Emerging New Christianity features the hyper-charismatic and Pentecostal movements represented by a variety of names and leaders. This supposed “new move of the Holy Spirit” coined as the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR) is also known as Third Wave, Manifest Sons of God, Latter Rain, Kingdom Now, Word Faith, Fresh Fire, and many other names!

Poignant testimonies of former members recount the subtle ways they were enticed into believing they were part of something “new” that God was doing, only to come to the sober realization that they had been ensnared by unholy spirits. Through careful Biblical analysis, well known experts help unravel the tragedy of growing deception in the Church masquerading as revival, renewal, and vibrant New Christianity.

Caryl Matrisciana, who grew up for almost 20 years in India, insightfully explains how India’s Eastern Mysticism is being practiced by millions of unsuspecting Christians in most mainline denominations. 2000 years ago, in conjunction with the birth of the church, Gnostic heresy (the foundation of Eastern Mysticism) attempted to creep in. Today it presents itself as Western Mystical Spirituality. By hijacking Christian terminology, its “doctrines of demons,” warned about in 1 Timothy 4:1, is deluding the Church.

What is being experienced by many Christians is similar to the mysticism practiced within Eastern philosophy. False teachers who consider they are “new anointed Prophets and Apostles” promote extra-Biblical supernatural signs and lying wonders, heavenly encounters, communication with “angelic” beings, dreams and visions, counterfeit healings, extra-Biblical revelations, sensual experiences, and militant spiritual warfare. Millions of their followers are unaware they are operating through demonic powers. So-called Christian leaders spread their anti-biblical teachings through “Christian TV,” social media, global Christian concerts and conferences. Their beliefs of taking over the world (Dominionism) through “revival” oppose Bible prophecy which predicts an end-time spiritual deception and falling away from biblical faith.

The New Testament urges Believers not to be carried away by the error of unprincipled teachers, fleshly desires or sensuality (2 Peter 3:17 & 2:18). The enemy preys on desires to “go deeper” and experience “more” of God, which can open doorways to occult mystical practices rampant in today’s Church. This volume urges Christians be on guard so they are not “led astray from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ” (2 Corinthians 11:4). They’re encouraged to live by biblical faith, relying on the promises of God which provide all riches in Christ.

–The Holy Spirit
