NEW BOOK - THE NEW AGE TOWER OF BABEL
|

|
We are pleased to announce the publication of a new book entitled The New Age Tower of Babel. This 510-page book documents the explosive growth of the New Age movement in our day. God’s people need to be able to identify the New Age and refute it with Scripture so that they can protect themselves, their churches, their loved ones, and their neighbors in these dark last days. Far too many are unequipped for this task. Two decades ago the New Age seemed to be more the doctrine of Hollywood movie stars (Shirley MacLaine’s “I am God”) and Starwars enthusiasts (“may the force be with you”) and the magic-crystal pop culture of rock & roll hippies than the philosophy of the average person or something to be taken seriously in churches or politics. As we document in the book, this wasn’t true then and it definitely isn’t true today. The New Age is on the move! The New Age philosophy has permeated the self-help, personal transformation field; it has leavened education (from lowest to highest levels) and reached deeply into business, health care, psychological counseling, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, politics and government, athletics and sports, even the military. Neil Anderson says: “It is safe to say that the prevailing religion in America ... is no longer Christianity but is instead New Age” (Christ Centered Therapy, 2000, p. 61). A trip to the average national-chain book store will verify this. New Age philosophy is found not just in the religious, spiritual, occult and metaphysical sections. CHAPTER TITLES ARE AS FOLLOWS:
We trace the origins of the New Age from the Devil’s conversation with Eve in the Garden of Eden to the Tower of Babel following the flood. We carefully examine its more recent origin in the nineteenth century, in the Mind Science cults, Christian Science, Theosophy, Unity, and New Thought. We then look at its growth in the twentieth century and now the twentieth first century through key personalities such as Aldous Huxley, Alan Watts, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Edgar Cayce, Carl Jung, J. Krishnumurti, Paramahansa Yogananda, Levi Dowling, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Swami Prabhupada, Sri Chinmoy, David Spangler, Elizabeth Clare Prophet, Werner Erhard, Buckminster Fuller, Jose Silva, Shakti Gawain, Shirley MacLaine, J.Z. Knight, Jean Houston, Maxwell Maltz, John Canfield, John Gray, Anthony Robbins, John Templeton, Hans Kung, Benjamin Creme, Barbara Marx Hubbard, Helen Schucman, Marianne Williamson, Neale Donald Walsch, M. Scott Peck, Esther Hicks, James Redfield, Eckhart Tolle, Deepak Chopra, and Rhonda Byrne. The book examines the growth of New Age philosophy in education, health care, politics and government, business, and the military. We look at how the New Age has been spread through rock & roll and Hollywood. We take a close look at popular New Age doctrines and practices such as Ayurveda, Reiki, Yoga, Homeopathy, channeling, positive thinking and positive confession, guided imagery, visualization, mantras, hypnotism, reincarnation, UFOs, global transformation, and community building. We show that the New Age has gained a stronghold in churches through such things as ecumenicalism, interfaith dialogue, the contemplative movement, Norman Vince Peale-Robert Schuller positive thinking, and the human potential market. We document the infiltration of the New Age into evangelical Christianity. The last chapter contains an extensive biblical refutation of New Age principles laid out in a format that could be used in Sunday Schools, Bible Institutes, and Home Schooling. The book features an extensive index. 510 pages $19.95 |
