Mike Hoggard explains how the terms convergence, great awakening, paradigm shift, DNA transformation, and the triquetra symbol relate to the United Nations and New Age theory that there will be a spiritual awakening when Heaven converges with Earth.
See how Satan is destroying the church from within to usher in a New World Order and how it is a mockery of Revelation 21 - God's new heaven and new earth. Mike Hoggard contrasts the Bible's version of this event with the Devil's version.

So that 1 hour talk show is based soley on a storybook taken as "historical fact" ? You do know that people wrote the bible, right? I also hope you are aware that it has been edited, mistranslated, re-edited, manipulated and revised throughout the ages, right?
This is what i dont understand about christians. Its like, your damned if you do follow them and your damned if you dont. There is no winning or logic to it. The arguments defy all reason.
To be wilfully ignorant in the age of information and progress is a conscious choice my friend. A closed mind misses open doors.

He was specifically talking about any spiritual practice that is occult in nature, which the Bible forbids, and yoga is another form of it, as the very nature of it is like letting your guard down allowing the demonic to have influence in your life. I can speak to this personally, because I used to practice it, and I can say it sure as hell isn't going to connect you with 'God'.

We're told to come out of the world, 'out of her', to separate ourselves from it as it is of the Devil, full of sin and filth, not to "unite" or "live in harmony" with it, which is why it says that by "peace", they shall destroy many. Its funny, they preach "peace and security" as they throw missiles at each other. The point he was making, is that no government or 'kingdom' of human origin and will can ever give us true peace and security, only God can, and by him stepping in he shall prove this.

You obviously didn't get the the entire point of this thread. Its reunification with God through God's will alone, not ours through engaging in occult like practices, as if 'God' is bound to us and needs our permission to do anything, which again, is what demons need, they need your permission in order for them to have any influence. God can do whatever the hell he wants, whenever he wants.

Here is the deal, none of this New Age crap will get you any closer to 'God'. A big part of the reason why God came into this world to die for our sins in the first place is so we don't have to engage in any rituals, especially ritual sacrifice of animals to communicate with him, all that is needed is speaking his name, Jesus, the job was finished long ago. If God is the one that casts judgement upon me (and will do so upon this world in the future) in death and decides whether or not I'm thrown in the lake of fire, then yes, I sure do fear him, so I do my utmost to follow his commandments. For some reason people think that God is supposed to be this nice guy, when he clearly wasn't, especially when he walked the earth as Jesus. There is a good reason why the Roman empire and the pharisees hated him, so much so that they deep fried extra crispy millions of Christians at the stake for three centuries for testifying that he was God in the flesh. If Jesus was alive today, he would be raising hell against this entire system and all the filthiness in this world and a revolution would probably start.edit on 21-11-2012 by BlackManINC because: (no reason given)

What a horribly negative view of the world the bible inspires. Do you only see sin and filth in this world? I can see the beauty in this creation, which is why I would rather enjoy it while I am here than hate it and desire to be rid of it.
Originally posted by GlassAlso you deny humanity's responsibility for our own well being and expect our creator to fix everything for us. You'll be waiting a very long time for this world to magically fix itself. Why should we not make an effort to be better human beings? Why can't we get along with people of differing beliefs and faiths and maybe learn something from each other?
Originally posted by GlassDoesn't Jesus need permission to enter your heart? Does that make him a demon?
And what if God's will is compelling people to come together in love and harmony? Wouldn't it be evil to speak against this unity as it is God's will?
Furthermore, what if God comes down but you don't recognize him, and in your state of fear you refuse to submit to his will saying that he is not the true God? What would become of you then?

“I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.” - Frank Herbert, Dune
"God is love" -John
Stop living in fear. Love is the key.
Have a nice day

And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding. - Job 28:28
By mercy and truth iniquity is purged: and by the fear of the LORD men depart from evil. - Prov 16:6
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is understanding. - Prov 9:10
7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. 11 Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us. 13 We know that we live in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit. 14 And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. 15 If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in him and he in God. 16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. 17 In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. 18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. 19 We love because he first loved us. 20 If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. 21 And he has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother.
