Book Reviews of Unmasking the New Age
Book Review: A comedy of Errors!!
Summary: 1 Stars
The author writes for a specific audience, the fearful and narrow minded. He may have information about groups and ideas, but is sadly lacking in any real understanding or depth of experience. It might be a great read for a joke! But it's a bad read for anyone who really wants to know about different religious and social movements. Too much missinformation.Book Review: Another Effort to Defend Against and/or Delay Advancing Human Consciousness
Summary: 3 Stars
Until about 1958, I might have shared the beliefs in this book. A lot has happened during the past half-century that is not specifically detailed in the Bronze Age scribblings that are bound in a book that allows for no updates/revisions. It is as though the great Universal Life Force identified by many names including "God" is bound and gagged by the printed word; no longer permitted to speak directly to the humanity whom He created.
This book is interesting reading and opens a peep-hole revealing the contents of closed minds.
Cline.
Book Review: Get a life!
Summary: 1 Stars
You can't have fear and faith at the same time. Wake up!Book Review: Shallow view of spiritual trends
Summary: 3 Stars
I did not like this book because as many others like it, it sifts through the different kind of spiritual teachings gathered under the name "New Age". Maybe this is because my book is not an up-to date revised edition ?? There are a lot of false assumptions. I am a Christian but do not share M. Groothuis extreme views.Book Review: Unmasked the Deceiver of This and Every Age!
Summary: 5 Stars
Although dated now, this is still a proper intro to the subject. The movement as Groothius points out is complex and dynamic, yet he provides the elements to it which can be flushed out throughout the culture.How significant to reflect back how the infiltration of this movement into media and medicine and education and government is now so fully entrenched.
More to the point and more serious is this infiltration into the church, e.g. positive thinking. The comments here alone should awaken Christ's church to get rid of this leaven which is not new, just combination of old deceit with new terminology and players.
Great source!
