What is Christ consciousness?

Christ consciousness or Krishna consciousness are exactly the same things. They come from the world of new age spirituality which really has no set doctrine or orthodox teaching. In the new age anything goes. There is a heavy emphasis on angels and reincarnation, and in most new age cults they practise some form of meditation. You will hear about gurus, liberation and emancipation and karma. Or you could hear anything from aliens, to animal spirits to earth worship and sacrifice. They say that Krishna consciousness or Christ consciousness is the goal of meditation, usually transcendental meditation. Most cults have stopped using drugs to produce an ecstasy or ecstatic high that they call bliss that drives them deeper and deeper into the world of the occult.

It is not satanism, there is no worship of Satan, in fact they will tell you that they are free and are worshipping God. But the bible says to test the spirits to see if in fact they are of God. With no theology they practically rely on subjective experience to authenticate their teachings. Yes the new age has teachings, they have lots and lots of teachings but they are all different depending where you worship.

Christ consciousness, is not like the presence of God Christians experience, in fact it is a totally subjective experience. Kind of like a ride a Canada's Wonderland if you were the only person on the ride and had to explain it to others. That's what Krishna consciousness is like and pretty much everything in the new age movement. Totally subjective, with no objective moral truth or absolute truth to back up the experiences and teachings. Here is your ticket, enjoy the ride.

On Christian Marriage. (Short)

On Christian Marriage. (Short) The modern co-habitation crisis has produced a lot of single moms and dads, and has fractured "family units" allowing other family members and relatives to take a bigger role in these "Separated families." There isn't a "one cause" why families have separated or divorced, it is a complicated issue, sometimes resulting in very hard emotions for Society to process. Things like the "millennial sexual revolution" have contributed to the widespread "non-committal" attitude, which in turn has given the traditional marriage the "black eye" it currently has and has turned many Christian men away from seeking a life partner. The more society devalues "traditional marriage" the more co-habitation you will see in all the other generations as well as the Millennials. This is Mike.

Why Christians must show Mutual Concern for One another.

  Look and see, there is no one at my right hand; no one is concerned for me. I have no refuge; no one cares for my life. Psalm 142:4. Christians in the church should have mutual concern for one another, this is what it means to be part of the body of Christ, 1 Corinthians 12:25. It’s takes good pastoral leadership to foster this sense of concern, and where it is missing, individuals who are suffering in the church are overlooked and not supported. Every believer needs support and encouragement, but when this is missing, the church divides and loses it power and testimony. Christians live like the world, and become vulnerable to Satan’s attacks when nobody is supporting them outside the church. I used to belong to an evangelical church which had great leadership, and something called small groups. This church felt like a family and I had people who shared my Christian walk with me when I was not in the church building. I have been attending a different denomination that doesn’t hav...

The Biblical Meaning of “Life in the Spirit.”

  “Life in the Spirit” is an example that the Apostle Paul gives in the book of Romans starting in chapter 5 and going through to chapter 8. He begins by telling us we are justified by faith (5:1), and have gained access by faith into the grace of God (5:2). We have been delivered from God’s wrath (5:9) and we have been reconciled to God through the death of His Son (5:10). He goes on to explain that through Adam all die (5:12), and that the free Gift of God brings justification and righteousness to the believing sinner (5:15-17).   Through our conversion we are baptized into Christ and into his death, which frees us from the law and makes us dead to sin (6:2-4). He explains that just as Christ was raised from the dead, we are given new life in Christ (6:4). Our old unregenerate self was crucified with Christ so that our body of sin might be done away with (6:5-6). Because we have died to sin, we now submit ourselves to God being that we are now under grace, not the law (6:8-1...
