WASHINGTON,
April 10
/Christian Newswire/ -- On her television show Oprah Winfrey
has been pushing a new book by Eckhart Tolle called A New
Earth. In fact, Oprah has now taken up preaching as a new past
time and has determined in her own mixed-up mind there are now
millions of ways to get to heaven.
This is so sad because Oprah is a hero of tens of millions of
television viewers and she is expressing her own Biblical
beliefs without any understanding of the Bible. Oprah has in
effect denied the teachings of the Bible and of Jesus Christ
by asking her viewing audience, "How can there be only one way
to heaven or to God?"
When a lady in her audience asked, "What about Jesus?" Oprah
defiantly answered her by repeating the question, "What about
Jesus?" Oprah went on to explain how she had been a Baptist
until she heard a charismatic Pastor make the statement that
God was a jealous God. She told her viewers in her opinion God
was simply love and God being described as a Jealous God made
her really stop and think.
Don Swarthout, President of Christians Reviving America's
Values said, "Oprah Winfrey has in reality just exposed her
own lack of understanding about the God of Christianity. God
may be a God of love, but he is also a God of justice and
judgment."
Don Swarthout said, "The point is there are millions upon
millions of Christians in the United States who thoroughly
believe what Jesus taught in the Bible and for Oprah to come
out against that teaching so strongly is simply appalling.
Oprah should really stop to think before she goes off
preaching her own unfounded beliefs to the world on her show."
Rebecca Chadwick, a news contributor for CRAVE said, "All
cults share the same premise; they misrepresent the nature of
God. Let's pray for Oprah and Tolle... and all those who are
lost."
