Heresy of Oprah

Gnosticism reborn? "The search for something more than doctrine..." "god is a feeling experience, not a believing experience..." "There can't possibly be only one path to god..." "The indescribable hugeness of that which we call god." Beware.

This was enough to turn off even my wife's sister, who is a lifelong Oprah fan... People view Oprah as a near-religious figure anyway - Look for the Church of the O soon!

I saw this Oprah show, too...and I've liked alot of her shows in the past..but have always known I don't agree with her political views usually...but when I heard this...I about FELL OVER!!! Especially just how NAIVE she is....the quote about her thinking God is jealous of HER?!!!...I just felt almost bad that nobody explained to her (or she didn't listen) that the statement means He's jealous of his children worshipping any other GOD ...not of HER!!! To me, that's just ...duh...but there are so many people who don't even bother to inquire about the true meaning of God's Word...instead they just interpret it themselves or listen to someone like Oprah because she' successful in the way of the world. We'll have to pray for her...she influences so many people everyday...that she may realize the TRUTH and spread only it.

Looks like good sermon illustration material for Easter 5 - John 14:1-14!
