Re: Hard Hitting Praise Tonight Misty Edwards
I'm with you on this one. I have a Misty Edwards collection I used during my devotion.
N David may not be aware that many concepts of "new age" philosophy comes from scripture. The best definition of new age philosophy is christianity without Christ. Many new age concepts are found in the Bible. As with most Biblical concepts, new age philosophy bastardizes christian concepts.
I don't understand why people are afraid to reclaim christian concepts from pagans.

Think like this. A great majority of kids come to IHOP because they are SEARCHING for more than they have. Lutherans, Baptists, Catholics even some Pentecostals.
And MOST OF THEM actually find more of Jesus than they had before. This is what so many don't get. Is someone moving forward when they go to another Church?
I wish everyone would all go to Churches that teach nothing but truth. But its exciting to me.....God is moving in someones life when they are moving forward. That's called a move of God.
Anytime we are getting more light than we had we are being led by the Spirit.
Is the Spirit leading thousands of young people out of dead Churches and off the streets to IHOP? I absolutely believe so! Then after they continue to seek him he can lead them out of IHOP and into a real Apostolic New Testament Church.
Can the Spirit lead people out of todays mostly error ridden Apostolic Churches into something more like Jesus? Sure but we do as you said have to be open.
