How To Protect Your Child from the New Age and Spiritual Deception
by Berit KjosTempting Voices Beckon to children everywhere. Schools, movies, music, and books all sound the call: "Come, dream, trust Self, you are divine, create your own reality, build a new world. Anything goes, for sin and guilt exist only in the minds of the antiquated 'religious.'" "Unlearning the old ways" is key to this global transformation. Today's assault on biblical Christianity is fast undermining God's moral and spiritual boundaries. It invites chaos rather than unity - coercion instead of freedom - war and violence instead of peace - and ultimately overtakes today's children with the plan to turn them into "progressive" transformation leaders of tomorrow. How can we equip our children so they do not become spiritually deceived and fall into this worldwide agenda? And how can we teach them to have the courage to say no to seductive enticements? There is an answer! We can teach our children to know Truth, so they will discern the counterfeit. And we can teach them how to spot the New Age/New Spirituality and to understand the serious implications that occur when it is embraced.
