The New Age Christian—An Accepted Oxymoron

January 16, 2020 by Lighthouse Trails author 9 Comments

It is important to understand that Satan is not simply trying to draw people to the dark side of a good versus evil conflict.

Is God in Graffiti?

August 22, 2016 by Lighthouse Trails author

By Ray Yungen  What is happening to mainstream Christianity is the same thing that is happening to business, health, education, counseling, and other areas of society.

Are You a Laggard? If So, You Are In the Way of the New Age Plan For Global Peace and Oneness.

February 19, 2015 by Lighthouse Trails Editors

By Ray Yungen  One of the main tenets of New Age thought is peace, goodwill, and the unity of all humanity. Remember, the Age of Aquarius is to be the Age of Oneness.

October 11, 2013 by Lighthouse Trails author

by Ray Yungen Many people may think the New Age movement is a collection of strange cults populated by aging hippies, emotional cripples, and assorted oddballs who are duped by money-hungry charlatans and egocentric frauds.
