TELLING IT LIKE IT IS

NOR ads are usually insightful. This one seems particularly appropriate today in light of the research I've been doing recently. Apply it to the story I linked earlier this morning as well--the one about the Canadian Catholic school's interfaith event. You can find the link to that story down below.

The NOR ad references Revelation and tells us "there are lots of lukewarm Laodicean Christians who don't want to proclaim the Gospel, but don't want to let go of Jesus altogether. They'd rather do social work and engage in interreligious dialogue, searching for some greater, more agreeable truth that has so far eluded everyone."

Those lukewarm Christians are more and more frequently seeking the Cosmic Christ and practicing esoteric Christianity, a version of Christianity that relies on visionary experiences obtained through spiritualism, which today is called channeling and sometimes called apparitions, and which violates the First Commandment. We knew it as "New Age" but it now comes disguised as mainline Christianity and it even wears a Catholic disguise in many cases, borrowing the language and trappings of the Catholic faith, but not the doctrinal content.

These Christians following the other gospel thrive in interreligious circles which try to blend the meditative/contemplative experience from the various religious traditions into a homogenuous whole that comes down to contacting all spirits equally. Since the angelic realm is divided, this is bound to lead to trouble.

Either we believe in Truth, or we believe in nothing at all.

Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us!
