N.A.M. or NAM
             New Age Mover
•   A person that teaches the
    philosophies of the New Age
    Movement
•   A person or group that engages in
    lectures in promoting esoteric
    doctrine.
AIMS
Is to create "a spirituality without borders or
confining dogmas (religious belief)" that is
inclusive and pluralistic. It holds to "a holistic
worldview,"emphasizing that the Mind, Body
and Spirit are interrelated[1] and that there is
a form of Monism and unity throughout the
universe.
GOAL
The goal of the new world order is
surely that every nation, large and
small (with minorities given equal
and proportionate rights) should
pursue its own individual culture
and work out its own salvation.
The New Age Con-mandments

1.Good and evil are one – all is
  interrelated.
2.You are interdependent.
3.No difference between God, a rock, a
  cabbage, a person.
4.No divisions.
5.No boundaries, only frequencies.
6 . No absolutes, but one continuous
reality.
7. You are all gods.
8. You have live before and live again.
9. There is no death.
10. We create our own reality (destiny,
existence).
What do they teach?
 You are requires no belief
 Heaven is not a location but refers to the
 inner realm of consciousness.
 My mind is part of god’s. I am very holy
 My holiness is my salvation.
 My salvation comes from me.
Essential BELIEFS
  Monism:
All that exists is derived from a single source
of divine energy. All is one, all is God.

  Pantheism:
All that exists is God; God is all that exists.
Panentheism:
God is in everything and everything is IN
God.
  Reincarnation:
After death, we are reborn and live
another life as a human. This cycle
repeats itself many times. Ultimately we
achieve immortality.
The 4 Tricks of Satan
This movement is a result of the same old
4 tricks of Satan described in Gen 3:4-5
 oThen the serpent said to the woman,
  "You will not surely die. For God knows
  that in the day you eat of it your eyes
  will be opened, and you will be like God,
  knowing good and evil."
1. You will not die
2. Your eyes will be opened
3. You will be like God
4. Knowing good and evil

  Crystal Ball Gazing), the diviner
 gazes into any shiny object (such
 as a crystal ball, mirror, or shiny
stone) to determine the future and
          see things past.
TAROT CARDS
TAROT CARDS

Tarot (pronounced "taro") are the
  predecessors of modern day
          playing cards.
TAROT CARDS


Tarot cards date back to fifteenth
  century Italy and a card game
        called "triumphs."
TAROT CARDS
The deck usually consists of two sets
of cards. One (the major arcana) has
  22 pictures such as the Fool, the
Devil, the Sun, the Lovers, the Hanged
Man and Death. The other set has 56
 cards (the minor arcana) with kings,
    queens, knights, and knaves.
Some facts about
“cartomancy” (or Tarot
    card reading).
The meanings of the figures
and numbers on tarot cards
 vary greatly among tarot
       card readers.
The way the cards are
shuffled, dealt, and "read" by
diviners are as varied as the
  practitioners themselves.
Interpretations vary greatly
     and rarely do two
 practitioners interpret the
   cards in the same way.
OUIJA BOARD
It is a device used in fortune
   telling that consists of a
   small board on legs that
   moves about on a larger
board with numbers, letters,
           and words.
OUIJA BOARD
OUIJA BOARD
 The Ouija Board is actually
  an American trademark
owned by Parker Brothers, a
  division of Hasbro toys.
OUIJA BOARD
    The term “ouija” is a
  nonsense word from the
 French word "oui" meaning
"yes," and the German word
     "ja" meaning "yes."
The Ouija Board was
 patented in 1892 by Isaac
 Fuld, a cabinet maker who
owned a small toy factory in
          Baltimore.
OUIJA BOARD

How does it work?
OUIJA BOARD
 2. Sub-consciously the two
     individuals push the
 “planchette” around on the
board as the result of minute
 muscular finger movement
     known in science as
   "ideomotor movement.”
OUIJA BOARD
   3. The movement of the
 planchette is not caused by
paranormal forces but rather
  by the unnoticeable finger
     movements of those
   controlling the pointer.
OUIJA BOARD
   4. Even Isaac Fuld who
  patented the Ouija Board
stated clearly that either one
   or both of the operators
     knowingly push the
   planchette about on the
         board, or . . .
OUIJA BOARD
. . . unknowingly push the
 planchette about on the
board due to “involuntary
      muscular actions.”
OUIJA BOARD
 6. Proof that this is true: (a)
  the board won’t answer if
the operators don’t know the
answers, (b) if the operators
  are blindfolded and can’ t
 see the board, the result is
        usually garble.
OUIJA BOARD: The Question!
     Since there are no
 supernatural agencies at
work moving the planchette
 around on the board, does
    this mean it is ok for
Christians to “play” with the
      Ouija board toy?
OUIJA BOARD: The Answer!
NO! While no supernatural or
  Satanic power causes the
  planchette to move, what
 Satan can do is to use the
psychological and emotional
 influences that result from
    the Ouija Board's use.
Satan can use the Ouija
board or any other New Age
   practice to distract a
  believer’s trust in God.
Satan will use virtually
anything to inspire disbelief,
  rebellion, and hinder the
        work of God.
Satan will use any means at
  his disposal to wage war
against you on the spiritual
 level to try and disable the
    work of Christianity.
ASTROLOGY
ASTROLOGY

A type of divination based on the
  theory that the positions and
movements of the stars, planets,
 sun, and moon at the time of a
    person's birth have direct
   influence on a person's life.
One of the keys of astrology is
the zodiac. In western astrology,
the zodiac refers to twelve zones
  in the sky and each zone has a
 star constellation that originally
        fell within its zone.
Each zone has a name (such as
Gemini, Taurus, Leo" etc), and
   each zone has a symbol.
A horoscope is forecast
 based upon astrology.
Astrology is no more
accurate in predicting
  future events than
     mere chance.
THE WORK AND POWER OF
1. Satan is real. Jesus
talked about Satan as a
     matter of fact.
3. Jesus called Satan a
deceiver, the father of lies,
 and said that there is no
        truth in him.
4. The majority of the time,
 the Christian’s battle is in
    the spiritual realm.
5. Satan works as an
    Angel of Light.
Remember, Satan uses
the psychological and
 emotional influences
 that result from NAM
       practices.

HOW TO RESPOND TO THE
 NAM AND THE PEOPLE
      INVOLVED
HOW TO RESPOND TO THE
 NAM AND THE PEOPLE
      INVOLVED

  1. Do not be ignorant
 about the NAM. Do not
 be afraid of it. Study it,
      learn about it,
understand it, but do not
   adopt its practices.
HOW TO RESPOND TO THE
 NAM AND THE PEOPLE
      INVOLVED

 2. Always be biblical in
 your responses. Where
 the Bible is apparently
 silent, look for biblical
        principles.
HOW TO RESPOND TO THE
 NAM AND THE PEOPLE
      INVOLVED

3. Do not attack. Your job
    as a Christian is to
   witness and tell the
 Good News that Jesus
      Christ is Lord.
WHY SHOULD CHRISTIANS
AVOID PRACTICING THE NEW
     AGE MOVEMENT?
1. It can detract you from your
dependence, trust, and even faith
              in God.
3. Your witness to the non-
Christian and the “babe in Christ”
         will be reduced.
4. The Bible is adamantly
opposed to NAM practices.
“Let no one be found among you
who . . . casts spells, or who is a
   medium or spiritist or who
  consults the dead.” Dt 18:10
"A man or woman who is a
  medium or spiritist among you
must be put to death. You are to
stone them; their blood will be on
   their own heads.” Lv 20:27
". . . do not practice divination or
          sorcery.” Lv 19:26
"Do not turn to mediums or seek
  out spiritists, for you will be
 defiled by them. I am the Lord
       your God.” Lv 19:31
THE SPIRITUAL STRUGGLE
   OF THE CHRISTIAN
THE SPIRITUAL STRUGGLE
       OF THE CHRISTIAN


“. . . for our struggle is not against flesh and
  blood, but against the rulers, against the
   powers, against the world forces of this
   darkness, against the spiritual forces of
    wickedness in the heavenly places.” -
             Ephesians 6:12 (NASV)
THE SPIRITUAL STRUGGLE
       OF THE CHRISTIAN


 “Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by
 prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let
your requests be known to God, and the peace
of God that surpasses all comprehension shall
  guard your hearts and your minds in Christ
        Jesus.” - Galatians 2:20 (NASV)
