Oprah - Deceiving a nation.

"But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them--bringing swift destruction on themselves. Many will follow their shameful ways and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. In their greed these teachers will exploit you with stories they have made up. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping." 2 Peter 2:1-3

For a very long time I have been saddened that Oprah Winfrey, whom I believe has a call from God on her life, has fallen prey to the deception of false teachers and their teachings. Being as powerful and famous as she is, it shouldn't surprise us that she has been swayed by the world and all that the world thinks it has to offer.

From her daily TV program, film company, a magazine, an XM radio station, and now her own TV network, she is able to literally reach nearly every person in the world, 24 hours a day, and teach the masses the deception that she has come to believe. Sadly, many believers in Christ Jesus are faithful watchers of her show and truly think she is doing a great service to the world.
Believers need to wake up and start repenting and praying for God to open our eyes to what is happening around us, and give us the strength to love as He loves.

One of her most important messages is the daily program that she promotes on her website called "A Course in Miracles" with Marianne Williamson. Here are some of the things this course teaches: (Excerpt from author Warren Smith http://www.crossroad.to/articles2/007/smith-oprah.htm )

* There is no sin. . . "
* A slain Christ has no meaning.
* The journey to the cross should be the last useless journey.
* Do not make the pathetic error of clinging to the old rugged cross.
* The Name of Jesus Christ as such is but a symbol... It is a symbol that is safely used as a replacement for the many names of all the gods to which you pray.
* God is in everything I see.
* The recognition of God is the recognition of yourself.
* The oneness of the Creator and the creation is your wholeness, your sanity and your limitless power.
* The Atonement is the final lesson he [man] need learn, for it teaches him that, never having sinned, he has no need of salvation.

As believers in Jesus and believers in the Scriptures, is this from God? Is this what the world needs to know and come to believe? Satan has come like an angel of light and the masses have fallen prey to years of subtle deception, but now, it's not that subtle anymore.

I am personally not against Oprah! But the purpose of this post is to encourage you to be aware of what you allow in your heart and mind and become diligent in praying for Oprah and the many who are deceived by the father of lies. Pray that she will use the platform that God has given her for the purpose of GOD'S KINGDOM. Oprah grew up in the church and has heard the Good News. I believe she accepted that Good News but now has been misguided and is in need of a divine appointment and anointing from God.
