Oprah: Promoting Sacrilege & Blasphemy; Endorsing Wholesale Abortion & Same Sex Marriage & Snubbing Sarah Palin
Promoting Sacrilege & Blasphemy
Oprah Winfrey, reported to be America’s most watched daytime TV talk show host with a daily following in excess of seven million viewers, is promoting a book by Eckhart Tolle titled “A New Earth”. In the same breath that Oprah claims to be a Christian, she states that there are many paths to God outside Christianity. I can’t wrap my mind around that statement or that belief, it is so conflicted. True Christians believe that Jesus Christ is the one and only “path” to God; to salvation. John 14:6 Jesus said: I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the father except through me. Is Oprah saying that Jesus lied? Is she claiming that Mr. Tolle knows more than Jesus, the prophets of old, the disciples? That Tolle’s book overrides the authority of the Bible?
Oprah has tremendous influence on her fans. Her endorsement of books practically guarantees the book and the author of “Best Seller” status. Many of her fans hold Oprah up as the final authority on everything. Therefore, when they rush out to buy Tolle’s book, many of them, (even those claiming to be Christians) will fall in line, cult like, with his new age thinking.
Tolle combines the mysticism of Buddhism and Hinduism with deliberate misinterpretations of Biblical scripture. He discounts sin as an obsolete concept, denies the existence of hell, denies that Heaven is a place but claims that “heaven” is found in our “inner realm of consciousness”. Tolle claims that this is what Jesus really meant in His teachings. Until now I was not aware that Jesus needed Mr. Tolle to interpret His meanings. I find Jesus’ meanings, clearly stated in the Bible, to be very straightforward and easily understood. Nothing Jesus said is in need of mere mortal’s corrective interpretation; especially when that interpretation is so deliberately skewed. Oprah & Tolle, in this new age partnership, create stumbling blocks to salvation for her vast audience of adoring fans; many who blindly follow anything Oprah says. What a waste of influence. It would behoove her to remember Matthew 7:15 Beware of false prophets who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
Endorsing Wholesale Abortion and Same Sex Marriage
I don’t watch Oprah. I don’t know if she overtly endorses abortion and/or the homosexual agenda on her show. Whether she does or doesn’t, she endorses it via her avid support of Obama and his principals. He is wildly supportive of abortion; the weapon of mass destruction of tiny human beings; even those who survive abortion attempts. He is also dedicated to the homosexual agenda including, but not limited to, same sex “marriage”. The majority of the American public is against both of these closely held Obama principals. God designed marriage between one man and one woman for the purposes of procreation of the species; genesis+1:%2027-28 Same sex “marriage” is counter to His purpose. Babies, born or unborn, are God’s creation and belong to him.psalms+139:13-16
I don’t believe he wants them murdered.
Snubbing Sarah Palin
Oprah, who claims to be a champion of women; an icon of women’s accomplishments, has announced her decision not to have Governor Palin on her show till after the election. She claims she doesn’t want to use her show as a political platform. Who does she think she’s kidding? She’s openly endorsed Obama. Whether she’s had him on her show since he announced his candidacy is a moot point. If she has even as much as mentioned his name on her show under the circumstances, she is using her show as a political platform for him. Disallowing Palin on the show is nothing short of bias against this woman. Oprah claims to support all women; not just those who are not a threat to Obama. This is sheer hypocrisy and fraud on Oprah’s part and, I might add, a slap in the face to any woman with a brain in her head
In my opinion, Oprah is showing her Narcissism by assuming Sarah Palin would even want to appear on her show. Governor Palin is in a class so far above Oprah Winfrey, that it would be a giant step down to appear on this liberal diva’s show.
Last but not least, Oprah has wealth, fame and fortune in such abundance as to be unimaginable to most of us. She has a vast audience; a following that hangs on her every word. She has an opportunity to be a role model for Jesus Christ; for real Christianity. She has an opportunity to make her wealth count for Him to whom it all belongs and what does she do with it? Promotes sacrilege, blasphemy, mass destruction of innocent babies and the homosexual agenda. Meanwhile, she deprives a conservative woman the right of free speech on her show; a woman who supports unborn babies and rejects same sex marriage; a Christian woman. She does this while claiming to be a Christian.
I think Jesus, at the end of the day, must look down on us for whom he bled and died, and weep.
