Many Shall Come in My Name

Jan Markell and Eric Barger host former New Ager Warren Smith for the hour. This movement is now called the “new spirituality” and you would be surprised how even evangelical leaders fit into it.

Why would Rick Warren tap into three men with involvement in this “new spirituality” to be a part of a program at Saddleback Church? Hear from one who attended this outrageous seminar. We carry Smith’s excellent book, False Christ Coming: What New Age Leaders Really Have in Store for America, the Church, and the World. Find it here. We use the mobile app found at www.oneplace.com.

The Submerging Church part 2

Eric interviews pastor and filmmaker, Joe Schimmel, in a continuing discussion of Joe's newest DVD project "The Submerging Church."

In this segment, Schimmel and Barger detail more of the problems associated with the Emergent philosophy in the light of the familiar apologetics standard: Galatians 1:8-9. Joe and Eric also point out the bottom line of Emergent error which is that it leads people into a godless eternity.

Here Schimmel also outlines how one man profoundly effected Bill Hybels (Seeker Movement), Rick Warren (Purpose Driven Movement), and Brian McLaren (Emergent Movement) moving them - and thousands of their followers - in one troubling direction. That man was New Age mystic and management guru, the late Peter Drucker.

The Submerging Church part 1

Eric interviews pastor and filmmaker, Joe Schimmel about his new documentary DVD set "The Submerging Church."

In this first segment, both men tell of their spiritual search before surrendering to Jesus Christ. Each also share unique perspectives on how millions inside Christian churches today have so easily accepted Emergent postmodernism and how it is submerging many congregations both in America and around the world. Joe and Eric also recount how they became aware of the growing Emergent Church and its troubling diversions into cultic and occultic philosophy.

Included are many definitions and problematic quotes from Emergent leaders which will help you to effectively communicate warnings concerning the many problems inherent in the movement.

Being that both Barger and Schimmel come from backgrounds deeply immersed in mystical beliefs and New Age, esoteric practices, both the personal experience and in-depth research they offer serve as bold warnings to those who've shelved the Bible to dabble instead with Emergent heresy.

Bible Prophecy and the Occult part 5 - The Kingdom of the Occult

Jill Martin Rische is Eric's guest again this week as we focus again on the world of the occult from a biblical perspective. Jill is the daughter of the late Dr. Walter Martin, the 20th centuries greatest Christian apologist. She, and co-author Kurt Van Gorden, have taken Walter Martin's notes and teachings and have developed the most complete treatise ever compiled on the topic in their book, The Kingdom of the Occult.

In the first part of the interview, Eric and Jill warned against the inherent dangers of reading occult-oriented literature without first understanding the seductive and spiritually damaging nature of them. In today's episode, Jill and Eric discuss the spread and pervasive acceptance of occultism through the media and literature today. They also connect the Hindu worship tool of yoga with demonic power and detail the fact that Hindu yogis (teachers) decry the current western culture's yoga craze, in particular the notion that yoga can be joined to Christianity, as ignorant and naive.

They also caution that unless one is called by God to specifically research on or expose the occult, Christians should endeavor to learn about the occult from Christian sources instead of from demonically inspired writers and their works.
