Emergent Revolution Claris Van Kuiken

A threatening, powerful storm producing high damaging winds is ripping churches off their foundation-even as governmental institutions weaken and crumble in the face of its strength and fury. An ever-increasing darkness that surrounds itself in light, it seeks to destroy that which gives life. The Emergent movement is the revolutionary storm led by a cadre of leaders determined to realize "God's" vision for the future. A revival of ancient spiritual practices, a renewed focus on churches being missional, an emphasis on the importance of community, compassion for the poor in the name of social justice, and concern for the environment camouflage the true nature of the spirit behind the movement. There is a reason why: *Judeo-Christian teachings are being blamed for the "crisis of man-made global warming" that is now hailed more dangerous than Islamic terrorism. *Common Core has been adopted into the classroom while Christianity is forced out and Islam and yoga are being enthusiastically taught *Our military is being cut back to pre-World War 2 status *Tax-payers are forced to pay for abortions; the definition of marriage is altered *Transformational leaders are replacing doctrinally-sound pastors *Congregations are being told to go by the Natural Church Development Resources *Churches are using consultants, coaches, facilitators, team-building, conflict resolution, and, most importantly, the spiritual practices of (occult) meditation and contemplative/centering prayer *The Network of Spiritual Progressives want you to accept their Spiritual Covenant for America and Global Marshall Plan *Social justice and sustainability is the rallying cry of today's progressive leaders in churches, politics, and universities From Karl Marx to famed Russian occultist/Theosophist, Helena P. Blavatsky, mediums Annie Besant and Alice Bailey, to President Barack H. Obama's forceful push to "fundamentally transform" America, the United Nations' agenda, and Emergent leaders calling for the transformation of the world, Eastern-occultic mysticism and its constant companion, socialism, are systematically replacing the "old story." The Judeo-Christian values this country was founded on are being attacked; the capitalist economic system that made it prosper is in danger of collapse. This is not the time for complacency or politically-correct servitude; now is the time for every Christian who cherishes the "old, old story" and freedom-TO STAND!
