WARNING TO FAMILIES ABOUT BOOKS AUTHORED BY NEALE DONALD WALSCH |
Please pay special attention not only to the what your kids watch on TV and in movie theaters and the music they listen to but we must also be alert regarding the books they read....
Two particular books, Conversations with God and Conversations with God for Teens, written by Neale D. Walsh sound harmless enough by their titles alone.
These books have been on the New York Times best seller list for a number of weeks.
These publications makes truth of the statement "Don't judge a book by its cover/title".
The author purports to answer various questions from kids using the "voice of God". However, the "answers" that he gives are not biblically-based and go against the very infallible Word of God. He uses the voice of the devil rather than the voice of God to lead these young people astray.
For instance (and I paraphrase), when a girl asks the question "Why am I a lesbian?" His answer is that she was born that way because of genetics (just as you were born right-handed, with blue eyes, etc.). Then he tells her to go out and "celebrate" her differences.
Comments of this web author- The Bible plainly teaches us that homosexuality is wrong. God did not make us with minds that are warped and confused as to what we are. He is NOT A GOD OF CONFUSION.
Homosexuality is wrong and strictly against the teachings of God.
Romans 1:24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
Romans 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
Romans 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
Another girl poses the question "I am living with my boyfriend. My parents say that I should marry him because I am living in sin. Should I marry him?"
His reply is "Who are you sinning against? Not me because you have done nothing wrong. Another question asks about God's forgiveness of sin. His reply - I do not forgive anyone because there is nothing to forgive. There is no such thing as right or wrong and that is what I have been trying to tell everyone. I do not judge people. People have chosen to judge one another and this is wrong because the rule is "Judge not lest ye be judged".
Comments of this web author-The Bible teaches us that adultery is wrong in any form and God DOES judge us for our sins. There are more verses than the ones below that tell us this but these should suffice.
Exodus 20:14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.
Deuteronomy 5:18 Neither shalt thou commit adultery.
Proverbs 6:32 But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul.
Jeremiah 23:14 I have seen also in the prophets of Jerusalem an horrible thing: they commit adultery, and walk in lies: they strengthen also the hands of evildoers, that none doth return from his wickedness; they are all of them unto me as Sodom, and the inhabitants thereof as Gomorrah.- *THIS IS WHAT MR. WALSH IS DOING-WALKING IN LIES AND LEADING OTHERS TO DO THE SAME*
Hosea 4:2 By swearing, and lying, and killing, and stealing, and committing adultery, they break out, and blood toucheth blood.
Matthew 5:27 Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not commit adultery:
Matthew 5:28 But I say unto you, That whosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart.
Matthew 19:18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
Mark 10:19 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother.
Luke 18:20 Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy mother.
That should take care of his contention that adultery is not a sin but there is more that he writes. The list goes on.
There is another book that he has authored entitled "FRIENDSHIP WITH GOD" that is just as bad. In it, he states that God told him it is O.K. if his wife goes off with another man and he should not be a jealous person!!!!!!!!!!! I ordered the book to see what it was about and I was NOT pleased. One of my readers was using one of his books to help booster his/her spiritual life but I had to send a warning to that person that it was not the way to do that. And I felt that the person who was using it was a young person and a young Christian who was already being led astray by this tool of the devil.
Not only are these books the false doctrine of devils but in some instances even quote (in error) the Word of God.
These books (and others like it) are being sold to school children (The Scholastic Book Club) and we need to be aware of what is being fed to our children.
Our children are under attack so I pray that you be sober and vigilant about teaching your kids the Word of God and guarding their exposure to worldly mediums because our adversary, the devil, roams about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour (1 Peter 5:8).
And how many of us know that lions usually hunt for the slowest, weakest and YOUNGEST of its prey.
