Thank you for the excellent interview David, I have found Doreen's videos so helpful, thank you, Doreen, the Lord is using you in a special way to reach people deceived by the new age etc.
Years ago, when I was into the New Age, I was furious with Doreen for converting to Christianity. But after coming back to Christ myself, I can 1000% agree with her. My introduction into the New Age was Conversations With God and it completely destroyed my faith and relationship with God and left me feeling extremely empty for almost 2 decades. Now that I have repented and completely surrendered to God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit, I cannot tell you just embraced I feel within with inner peace, joy, love, fulfilment and the Holy Spirit. The searching is over. I have been found ❤️
From the introduction of A Course in Miracles: "....The course does not aim at teaching the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. It does aim, however, at removing the blocks to the awareness of love's presence, which is your natural inheritance. The opposite of love is fear, but what is all - encompassing can have no opposite. The course can therefore be summed up very simply in this way: Nothing real can be threatened. Nothing unreal exists. Herein lies the peace of God "
Your views seem to be fear based. I can't follow a scary God. The course in Miracles teachers only love and non judgement. A God who would send a Human to Hell for eternity is a beast and I would never bow my nee before him.Jesus Christ is the Lord.
The Bible is our only source for knowing the character and thoughts and words of the Lord Jesus, and in the Bible Jesus clearly speaks about the reality of punishment for sin in hell (for those who do not repent and believe in Him) in such passages as Matthew 25:41; 8:12; 13:41-42, 50; 22:13; 24:51; 25:30; Mark 9:47-48; Luke 16:19-31. But the Good News of the Gospel is that Jesus came to save His people from their sins (Matthew 1:21) by giving His life in their place as a ransom (Matthew 20:28). He shed His blood at the cross for the forgiveness of sins of many people (Matthew 26:28), so that all who come to Him in repentance and faith will be saved (Mark 1:14-15; Luke 24:45-47; John 6:35-40). So hell is real (and is what all of us deserve by our sin), but there is salvation from hell for everyone who comes humbly to Jesus with the attitude He describes in Luke 18:13-14 -- "God, be merciful to me, a sinner!"
I agree wholeheartedly! I am immensely thankful for moving away from the biblical concept of God as I couldn't reconcile with a deity who sends their own children to hell. It's unsettling. ACIM resonates with me, and I am committed to this path without hesitation.❤
I studied in convent and learned a lot of good things. About 70000 Christians revert to Islam each year. I listened to your discussion and I would definitely recommend you to listening to sheikh Hamza yusuf for better understanding. Muslims who follow the faith have a deep understanding . I would recommend you to learn more and even reach to father Hilary higgy. Guidance is only from Allah. He guides whom he wills.
Finally a Christian teacher who isn't a fat slob or an emaciated book worm. Sorry but it's hard to taken instruction from people who just look unhealthy.
No its not written by Jesus... At the end of it tells us that we are all Jesus and no we are not. The Author Helen Schuchman regrettet ACIM before dying of cancer... ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-s_LeoRMODIY.html
GOD'S Plan For Our Salvation...(Short/Condensed Version) The Holy Bible definitely teaches that there are steps that a person must take in order to be Saved and to come to CHRIST. . We Must Hear the Gospel of CHRIST, for Faith comes by Hearing the Word of GOD (Romans 10:17). A person must Hear. The fact that we have sinned, GOD loves us, and CHRIST died for us is learned when the gospel is preached. In Every case of conversion found in the book of Acts, people first had to Hear...Romans 10:17, John 5:24, Acts 2:37, Acts 8:6, Acts 8:35; Acts 9:6, Acts 10:33, Acts 16:14, Acts 16:32, and Acts 19:5. As we Hear we learn that we have sinned...Romans 3:23, that GOD loves us...John 3:16, and that CHRIST died for us...Romans 5:8. Without Hearing the Gospel Of CHRIST, we Cannot come to CHRIST...John 6:44-45. . Upon Hearing GOD'S Word, we must Believe...Mark 16:16, John 6:47. We Must All Believe in CHRIST, for Without Faith it is Impossible to Please GOD (Hebrews 11:6; John 8:24). This is another way of saying we must have Faith. Our SAVIOUR in John 8:24 said, if ye believe not that I AM HE, ye shall die in your sins. Some denominations teach that a person is saved the moment he or she believes, but that is Not true. If that was true, then why was king Agrippa just almost a Christian? He believed...Acts 26:27-28. Why aren’t the devils saved? They believe...James 2:19. No, it takes More than just Believing and Faith only to be saved...James 2:24. . A person must also Repent...Acts 2:38. We Must Repent of all of our past sins, for GOD Commands all men, every- where to Repent (Acts 17:30-31; Luke 13:3-5). Our LORD taught that Repentance was absolutely Necessary in Luke 13:3 and 5 or else we will perish. That is why Saint Peter commanded people in Acts chapter 2 to Repent. Repentance is a Turning...a Turning From Sin and Turning to GOD. . If, upon Hearing and Believing GOD'S Word, and we are willing to Repent, then we all Must then Confess that our MESSIAH and CHRIST is the Only Begotten SON of GOD...Matthew 10:32, Matthew 16:16; Acts 8:37. Confession is made with the mouth unto (in the direction of) salvation as stated in Romans 10:9-10. Again, We All Must Confess our Faith in CHRIST JESUS as the Only Begotten SON of the Living GOD and our LORD (Romans 10:9-10). For HE said, He that Confesses ME before men, him will I also Confess before MY FATHER who is in Heaven (Matthew 10:32). Confession of our sins (1 John 1:7-9) . After Confessing CHRIST to be the SON of GOD, then we all Must be Baptized (Fully Immersed in Water). Acts 2:38, Galatians 3:27. Baptism is another step we all Must do that is required to help save us...1 Peter 3:21, because Baptism in the Holy Bible is for (in order to have) the Remission (Forgiveness) of our sins...Acts 2:38. Let our salvation be patterned after those we read about in the book of Acts! Again, We Must All be Baptized into CHRIST for the Remission of Sins, for saint Peter said, Repent, and be Baptized everyone of you in the Name of YESHUA CHRIST for the Remission of your sins (Acts 2:38; Mark 16:16). . Now these first several Steps (Hearing, Believing, Repenting, Confessing and being Baptized) are only for Qualifying for the Race and now We All Must actually Run the Race that is set before us all...1 Corinthians 9:24-27, Galatians 2:2, Galatians 5:7, Philippians 2:16, Philippians 3:14, Hebrews 12:1-2, 2 Timothy 4:7, 2 Timothy 4:8. Running the Race is actually the very difficult part after becoming a christian or disciple of CHRIST. You know that in a Race all the runners Run, but only one gets the prize. So Run to Win! All those who compete in the games use self-control so they can win a crown. That crown is an earthly thing that lasts only a short time, but our crown will never be destroyed. So I do not Run without a goal. I fight like a boxer who is hitting something-not just the air. I treat my body hard and make it my slave so that I myself will not be disqualified after I have preached to others. Let us Run the Race that is before us and never give up. We should remove from our lives anything that would get in the way and the sin that so easily holds us back and entangles us, and let us Run with endurance the Race that is set before us. . After Baptism, then We all must Live a faithful godly Life in CHRIST and Live a Faithful Life for CHRIST. We all need to walk in our CHRIST’S Light...Revelation 2:10, 1 John 1:7. We also need to be CHRIST like in all we say and do, and in CHRIST church we must worship GOD in spirit and truth, partake of the LORD'S Supper every first day of the week, Praise and Glorify HIM and be a Servant and a Disciple of CHRIST. One must Live Faithfully as a disciple of CHRIST, Live for CHRIST and stay faithful to GOD...We Must Have Love For GOD and Everyone. We are all Blessed If we keep and do our GODS commandments...Revelation 22:13-14. We must encourage and edify others to stay faithful and fight the good fight faith until the end of our earthly lives. We must rightly divide the words of GOD and put them into practice what GOD teaches us from the words of life. We must also test the spirits of mankind in order to see if they really are from GOD or if they are from the evil one. We are saved by continuing in true righteous obedience to our only GOD, for this is showing that we truly Love our GOD if we obey HIM and keep HIS commandments...Revelation 2:10 . Faith alone without works will not save us, for our GOD said faith without works is dead as per James 2:14-26. There is no such thing as once saved always saved, because anyone can fall from GOD’S Grace and be eternally lost. Once Saved Always Saved is False Teaching and False Doctrine and it is Only Wishful Thinking. We all should be willing to Suffer like and for CHRIST. . A woman cannot speak or teach men in church meetings or church assemblies or congregational church service meetings as per 1 Corinthians 14:33-37 and 1 Timothy 2:11-12. Women must remain or be Silent in the churches of our LORD and GOD. A man must not wear a head covering or a veil whenever he prays to GOD and a woman must wear a veil or head covering whenever she prays to GOD as per 1 Corinthians 11:1-16. . Our GOD is Composed of Three Spiritual Divine Supreme Beings that are United and Unified in True Oneness as One GOD. Our Heavenly FATHER, HIS Only Begotten SON YESHUA our LORD, MESSIAH and CHRIST, and our HOLY SPIRIT. They All make up One GOD in Unified Oneness or One in Unity, One in Purpose, One in the Way, One in the Complete Truth, One in Patience, One in Meekness, One in Everlasting, One in Justice, One in Righteousness, One in Mercy or Mercifulness, One in Holiness, One in Hope, One in Perfect/Perfection, One in Harmony, One in Love, Etc.
I recently started reading ACIM. This morning I prayed for God to show me the true path forward. Then I found this video. Throwing away my copy of ACIM now. Thank you.
Respectfully, why have you turned off the comments on your 10 new age things to throw out. What you have is faith in what you believe in. But when ANYONE condemns the expression of others faith, that is also not being respectful of all of God’s creation. We Indians are the most dangerous people in the world. The world calls us idol worshippers. But we are a nation that believes our faith and belief in God can bring alive even a tiny stone that can bear witness to our faith and love of God. A bus driver invokes God on the bus he has driven for decades and bows to it because it has given him a life and security and work without which he couldn’t have survived. So does he need to GO TO SOME MAND MAD TWMPLE OR CHURCH TO SHOW HIS GRATITUDE ?? And does bowing down to God through his bus, makes him a hypocrite?? Absolutely NOT. HUMILITY AND GRATITUDE allows you to shut your eyes and imagine God’s grace in the bus HE sent this man to save and support the humble driver. It is sad we put so many evil and unqualified reasons to put down the actions of love and faith of others. Pl give proof that what you are saying qualifies as the absolute truth. Life freedom and free expression and culture art also have a safe and progressive place under God’s love. But when you assign an evil to something that is innocent, you disrespect God. And what you are doing is exactly what divides the world leading to prejudice and hate and intolerance of other communities. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼please be kind. Pl don’t be so judgemental. Pl don’t be so intolerant. Pl 🙏🏼🙏🏼
There are soo few videos on acim as new age. I searched today as currently doing acim and questioning everything more recently due to videos that are coming up on yt with peoples testimonial from new age to Jesus which has been really refreshing. I’m relieved i dont have to do acim as didnt want to, more like a chore had to do but felt it was a good path to help as nothing was working. Ive just cancelled the last 2 people was subscribed too as on the fence but realise they also are new age, one was channeling Jesus regularly. It does feel lighter knowing i dont have to do all this work and will start reading and trusting the bible from now❤
In Isaiah 9.6, the Lord Jesus Christ is called the everlasting Father, so it is not necessarily modalism if someone were to pray Thank you, Father for dying on the cross for me. When you pray, you are praying to the one God who is three Persons, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, not just to the first Person. The Holy Trinity is the Father of creation, the Father of mankind, and the Father of the faithful. The Old Testament says that the one God is our Father, and the New Testament reveals that this one God, who is our Father, is three Persons. So the name Father is used in two senses, that of the Holy Trinity and that of the first Person of the Trinity who is in relation to the second Person in a way likened to the relation of a father to a son. Jesus prayed to the Father in two senses, as a man praying to the Holy Trinity as Father Creator, and as the Incarnate Son/Word praying to the first Person. Likewise, we pray to the Holy Trinity as being together our Father Creator, and at the same time, being in Christ, in relation to the first Person in the way that the second Person is. The marvelous truth of the Trinity is something we cannot fully comprehend in our minds, and there is sufficient Scriptural warrant tor calling Jesus Christ Father. That is not to call him the first Person, but to recognize the double sense of the word Father in relation to God. So, I should not jump to accuse people of modalism when they speak of the Fatherhood of the Son, as sharing in the Fatherhood of the other Persons of the Trinity, the one God, the Holy One of Israel, the mighty God who, Isaiah 10 and 9 tell us, became incarnate as Immanuel, Jesus Christ.
Always feel peaceful after listening to Mr Lennox❤… May God continue to bless him with good health and ability to continue to teach a fallen broken world.
Thanks for your comment. In it you made an assertion (that not believing in God does not mean you are wicked), and I wondered where you got the idea from. If from yourself, then would you not acknowledge that you are not likely to make such a pronouncement *objectively* about yourself? The Bible clearly teaches the opposite of what you asserted (e.g. in Psalm 14:1). As regards myself, I confess there is still far too much wickedness in me, for which I need Christ's cleansing and sanctifying. I'd urge you to humble yourself before God, and confess yourself to be a sinner in need of His mercy, as Jesus urges in Luke 18:9-14 (especially verse 13).
Why do you spend your time arguing against the scriptures and find ways to disbelieve it and then belittle what Jesus taught, that we were indeed saved by Works? Your traditional Teachers have more credibility and honor, and as for you who do Not Believe in what Jesus taught, I say, you do not need to explain anything.
If anyone is finally saved by the merits and power of their own 'good works', then Jesus has not lived up to His name Jesus, which in Hebrew means "the Lord saves", and specifically for Him His name means that "He will save His people from their sin" (Matthew 1:21). Jesus taught us that we have hearts from which evil flows (Matthew 15:18-20). Jesus, the night before He died, explained that He was about to pour out His blood for many people for the forgiveness of their sins (Matthew 26:28). Is it your view that Jesus taught that our works can merit eternal life?
@@southstreetfreechurch.A typical Calvinists ' form of deceits. There is absolutely no Connections, how one finally got saved by Good Works, and the Lord Saves. Lord Jesus taught, that we are to endure till the end to be saved. Hold fast our faith and persist till the end, and not half way. It has been sheer Dishonest, sheer Distortions and a sleigh of Hands, a Deceit to conflate the two Concepts. Obedience to God and hold fast to the end, and keep our faith, and keep the commandments is to safe Guard our Salvation, not about such Works meaning Can Saved us. We cannot work to secure our Salvations .But we can keep it, the gift of salvations. If you are so Lousy, unable to keep what was given to you, then you should not accept the gift of salvation through Christ. Lord Jesus saves human being. Lord Jesus did not save a Robot. Lord Jesus for fear of His people would betray Him one day, so saith ,and place a Deterrent, that in future if anyone Sins ,His people would sins, He will cast that Nut into the Lakes.

By way old warnings, even so, in Future if anyone dare to sins, it goes into the New age ,in Eternity ,a million years later, Blasphemy Sins against God the Spirit ,he or she will Never get forgiveness, and it was in ,in that age to come. Also, after we live in Heaven, in bliss just like in the days of Lucifer and his angels there n then, if anyone should disobey God, Eternal Lakes is waiting, for it will be an eternal Deterrent, so wrote the Scriptures. People still have the ability, the nastiness n the act of Disobedience if they so choose to ,in eternity. Do you believe in the Scriptures? What part of Monument you could not understand ? God still do not Trust angels. Nor God trust human beings. Which is why, we may get Tested. Here and Now. God tried the hearts of men and women, is Scriptures. Satan tempt and steal Souls ,and is a Roaring lion, do devour souls, is also scriptures. Calvinists were all Inspired by Satan.
@@southstreetfreechurch .Our Lord Jesus do declares , of His children who were saved, how their unrepentance will doomed their souls .Even concerning, about His true prophets, true servants, true Christians, if they do evils, they will be thrown into Hell. John Calvin a heinous person who did evil things, concoct a theory for Christendom to consume. He gave Calvinists his theories of Satan. Satan has been sayings to Calvinists; Don't worry, you were saved already ,Eternally Secured. nothing you do would cause you to lose salvations. They actually bought it. Calvin burned Servetus alive.
I don't agree with all the Christian rhetoric but I do think it is a good idea to stay away from mediums. I was a part of the spiritualist church in Australia for a while and I found the people there to be very dysfunctional They were really cold, hard and unwelcoming. They gave off really negative vibes' The mediums had a special table of their own and they had better afternoon tea than anyone else There was a very strong sense of the in crowd and the out crowd
Muslims follow Mohamed, peace be upon him, and practise the religion of all the prophets of Our Creator which is in a nutshell, to only worship Allah, swt, the Owner and Creator of all the universes, the seen and the unseen. On the other hand, Christians follows Saul and the Church new religion, they practise a religion ABOUT Jesus, and worships something against the reported sayings of Jesus, peace be upon him, in their own scriptures : the Trinity. Jesus, peace be upon him, according to the Bible, and all Muslims in the world and through time worships the Same God! Again on the other hand: Jesus, peace be upon him, IN the Bible, doesn't not worship and recognize the same God that the overwhelming majority of Christians worqhips today. Make it makes sense.
At speaker's corner, all his theology would crumble.. because Truth is absolute. But it's still an interesting interview, in the sense that, all his biais, and lack of understanding can easily be identified. All his arguments and wrong interpretations to reject The Truth of the Holy Quran and Islam, can easily be broken down and dismantled. I like the fact that i can't really sense any real hate from him against Islam. It s just that he choose to reject it respectfully. I hope his next arc would be to compare his Christian faith with the actual content of his Bible. Because some can argue that Jesus, peace be upon him, And his God (yes Your God had a God), in multiple text occurences in the Bible are far more in line with Islam and The Holy Quran, than with the currents christians interpretations delivered by the Church, saul, all the church fathers and influentual christians figures through time. Also he just compared the Bible and the Holy Quran content not characteristics. The fact that the last book has only One Author (your Creator), had never changed (except in your echo chamber), contains absolutly no errors nor contradictions, and so on, could never be matched. He could also compared the past life of Mohamed, peace be upon him, and Saul before their revelations to determine which one he should trust.. Because good fruit also includes purity of character and life.. And according to christians " Those whom the Father calls to shepherd His flock must not live in debauchery (2 Peter 2). They must not preach and practice envy or divide over minor matters (1 Tim. 6:2b-5). By their holy conduct, they are to set a good example for God’s chosen people (4:12)."
What makes not believe in the Quran being a word of God or not? If you read it you will absolutely understand that it is a book from God. well preserved through the years and well documented and there is no contradictions inside Quran.
I believe her when she speaks of her personal experiences and her feeling like God was correcting her for putting idols before him. Sounds like she placed her new age practices above communion with God But she clearly doesn’t understand what the courses message is if she thinks it’s saying it’s ok to give our ego full permission to do what it wants It’s quite ironic actually , that she’s saying that because most people who burn the book and throw it away is because it doesn’t try to appease or tickle the flesh (“flesh” is what the course calls “ego”) It’s very offensive to the flesh and will make the flesh kick and scream , cry , throw a tantrum, get angry …….why….because the flesh doesn’t want to give up control and surrender to Holy Spirit The flesh wants full control , wants to do its own thing separate from God ACIM exposes all the flesh’s games & all the subtle and not so subtle ways we defend against the truth of Gods Love and resist to giving up that control If your not ready to have your heart and mind exposed for all the repressed anger, guilt & fear Then DONT READ ACIM ! But if you want that junk exposed by the Holy Spirit so that you can be healed and set free and have peace …..so what Doreen says…..”read it with a prayerful heart” and see if it’s right for you !
Those who are ready for Jesus' teaching in the Course are rare. They weren't ready for it 2000 years ago, and they're not ready now. But you are, and I am thankful for you. 🙏
None of her statements about the Course is actually true The Course doesn’t say any of those things It’s actually the opposite of “stroking the ego” “Allowing the flesh to do whatever it wants” “Glorifying & serving the self” “license to the flesh” “Flesh” is the what the course calls ego… ACIMs entire text is CONFRONTING & EXPOSING the flesh (or ego) and asking us to turn to Holy Spirits guidance instead It’s about letting go of fear & guilt and return to the Love of God ACIM not only exposes the flesh and all its defenses against God , it also exposes the idols we’ve placed above God (including making the Bible an idol or any other book an idol) and asks you to turn within to experience the Kingdom of Heaven which is peace, love, joy The Course explains what terms like Atonement, Salvation, Sin, Kingdom of Heaven means Religion says The Kingdom of Heaven is some place you go when you die but must suffer in the meantime ……ACIM is saying no this isn’t true, that the Kingdom of Heaven is HERE & NOW and availabe to ALL who want the peace , love joy of God but the only way is by accepting the gift of Salvation and allowing for the Atonement (which is the undoing of guilt & fear in your minds and Hearts) and seeking the Kingdom the only place it can be found which is WITHIN It’s beautiful, it’s amazing & it’s helping finally feel the peace & love & freedom
ACIM is also teaching to ask the Holy Spirit to help us see & help us remove any blocks we have to the presence of Gods Love Its asking us to allow Holy Spirit to shine a light on the hidden fears and repressed guilt and to be open to receiving the Love that has the power to wash away all feelings of guilt & fear and unworthiness
Thank you so much. I was into tarot and then got course of miracles book. I read a bit and it DID not feel right. I was brought up catholic. Then got cancer and God healed me. I would like to start reading the Bible but difficult to understand. Would like to have Bible audio.👩🏼
Doreen, if you’re so positive that you are on the right path, howcome you shut your “comments” off like a COWARD?!?! People of character and courage DO NOT STONEWALL DEBATE !!!
It's great that Doreen Virtue renounced the New Age and accepted Christ. Unfortunately though Doreen is still in error and is falsely teaching that deliverance is not biblical and neither are renunciation prayers. Doreen needs to have a word with Stephen Bancarz who also came out of the New Age but correctly teaches that deliverance is an important part of the New Testament. Also Doreen is falsely accusing Derek Prince by saying that he claimed Christians could be possessed when he categorically did not. Derek was qualified to teach Greek at university level and he was always careful to make it clear that a Christian could not be possessed only oppressed or harassed, etc. Doreen has now brought out another video called "The Demon Slayers" where she is slandering Derek Prince among others by claiming he is part of the New Apostolic Reformation which is quite frankly ridiculous. Doreen does not allow comments on her videos which was understandable because she was initially under attack from New Agers and also from Christians. However now she is confidently teaching - albeit some of it false - and she should be easily able to deal with comments like everyone else does using scripture. Doreen claims that she is contactable on Instagram but she has limited comments there too. Besides causing individual Christians considerable harm by speaking out against deliverance, Doreen is creating confusion among Christians. We know that God is not the author of confusion, so then we know it must be someone else who is doing that. There are Christian Facebook groups some with thousands of members who are recommending Doreen Virtue as a teacher, saying that deliverance is not biblical. Anyone who mentions deliverance or Derek Prince is given one or two warnings and then unceremoniously chucked out of the group. I want to do something about this and not sure what so making some comments on some videos like this one. Thank you.
Thank you brother Luke, this was truly edifying to me and also a confirmation that the apostle Paul was speaking to babes in Christ that should have been matured in Christ. I needed this message, please stay faithful in your teaching/preaching, you are a real blessing. Kim
