Gettting Rid of doctrinal leaven Part 2

This is a response to the series of videos by "FaithandReasons" in which she gave her testimony. I identify with a lot of what she said. I was moved by her videos to examine my own study habits: the books I read and the doctrines I entertain. I found I had slipped into what experience should have told me was deception.

I decided to get rid of some books in my personal library as well as purge my computer of certain files containing "New Thought" teaching.

That is what is so seductive about the teachings. The Satan knows what our weak points are. He knows I am curious: a seeker who will follow truth where ever it leads.

From personal experience, I know that God will only let me go so far before I am confronted by some one with a "prophetic" word which seems to be specifically for me. This word turns on a light and I can see the teaching for what it really is.

God is merciful. If only I were so patient and understanding when others go astray.

Do you not understand that all these have read the bible and taken biblical principles and taught them without referencing the bible. I studied many of them and I concluded that they took from the bible. Yes much of it was corrupted and new age was added to it.
