Jesus Calling PART 6 - New Age "Messages": Sarah Young's Contemplative Prayer Method Identical to Passive, Telepathic-Psychic Literary Mediumship!

An 11 Part Audio Series by Chris Lawson

This discernment teaching message is also available as one lengthy audio under the title, Sarah Young’s Jesus Calling Messages Compared to Spirit Channeled Messages (See episode menu).

See The "Jesus Calling" Sarah Young Devotional Series - Expose Archive.

Note for Jesus Calling devotional readers: This series includes direct quotes from the Jesus Calling author Sarah Young, from her personal interviews with news correspondents. These quotes are then compared to definitions from The Donning International Encyclopedic Psychic Dictionary (June G. Bletzer, Ph.D.).

Part 6

  • Christians can be polluted and their faith can be shipwrecked by deceptive evil spirit teachings coming through false teachers.
  • If you want to listen to God you must clearly understand Scripture and properly apply it to your life.
  • Sarah Young does warn about inconsistent hearing from God/Scripture, but she is not very discerning at all.
  • Sarah Young’s lack of spiritual discernment led her to be inspired by God Calling, a book that was channeled.
  • Are we to listen to author Sarah Young now - instead of directly reading and gleaning from Scripture?
  • Sarah Young was a Christian for 20 years before practicing her “listening prayer.”
  • Quote from Sarah Young regarding Psalm 46:10 - “Be still and know that I am God.”
  • The biblical application of Psalm 46:10 has nothing to do with “sitting with pen in hand” and “listening to God.”
  • Cults around the world pervert this Scripture in numerous ways, as do many Christians.
  • Many New Age/mystic/occult proponents, as well as uneducated Christians, twist and pervert Psalm 46:10 into something that it clearly does not mean.
  • Sample authors: Lawrence LeShan, Shakti Gawain, Richard Foster, Thomas Keating, Anthony De Mello, Thomas Merton, Daniel Goleman, Richard Foster, Wayne Teasdale, Bede Griffiths.
  • Quote from Sarah Young about how she listens to God and says, “As I receive it [messages] from Him.”
  • CBN asks Sarah Young, “Share a memorable experience when you began listening to God—with pen in hand.”
  • Sarah Young responds with:
    • “I began my listening—writing adventure while living in Melbourne, Australia…I was comforted by messages gleaned from listening to God…To my delight I was able to ‘listen’ to Jesus in the hospital as readily as in my home…God’s precious messages continued flowing into my journal. This helped me stay close to Jesus throughout the tumultuous time.”
