Oprah denies Jesus Christ

On her television show Oprah Winfrey has been pushing a new book by Eckhart Tolle called A New Earth.  In fact, Oprah has now taken up preaching as a new past time and has determined that there are now millions of ways to get to heaven.

Oprah is a powerful woman with tens of millions of television viewers that watch her show. In one of her shows Oprah denied the teachings of the Bible and of Jesus Christ by asking her viewing audience on her show, "How can there be only one way to heaven or to God?"

When a lady in her audience asked, "What about Jesus?"  Oprah defiantly answered her by repeating the question, "What about Jesus?" Oprah went on to explain how she had been a Baptist until she heard a charismatic Pastor make the statement that God was a jealous God.  She told her viewers in her opinion God was simply love and God being described as a jealous God made her really stop and think. 

Don Swarthout, President of Christians Reviving America's Values said, "The point is there are millions upon millions of Christians in the United States who thoroughly believe what Jesus taught in the Bible and for Oprah to come out against that teaching so strongly is simply appalling.  Oprah should really stop to think before she goes off preaching her own unfounded beliefs to the world on her show."

Rebecca Chadwick, a news contributor for Christians Reviving America’s Values said, "All cults share the same premise; they misrepresent the nature of God.”

Oprah Winfrey is able to misrepresent God and influence millions because she is so successful and with success comes influence. Does your life draw peoples' attention? Could you influence millions in the right way?

Don't accept a mediocre life which influences noon. Join others in the battle to make it to the top this Monday at 7.30pm in all UCKGs.
