The War Of The Ages

The History Of Mystery Babylon A 6000 Year Overview of Satan's Effort To Hinder God's Plan

 PART NINE:  The New Age Enters Mainstream Society  1980-1989
During this decade, the New Age openly raised its tents, set the tent posts and put out signs announcing that the New Age is not a fad, but is here to stay. The New Age movement tightened its foothold in government, religion, telecommunications, economics, education, entertainment, medicine, business, health, and leisure. The same tactics used to bring to the Church a sense of a unified consciousness was used by the New Age in their strategies. That s because it is the same strategy. The Church moved the individual to the small group prayer meeting, then stadium meetings and big ecumenical conferences, and now into a corporate, unified, global move. That s what happened to those apart from the churches and Christianity. First they dealt with the individual, then got them into small seminars, for instance, at work or school, and then into large gatherings, like Farm Aid in the late 1980s. Thus the 1980s would boost the New Age to the level of a global movement. It was now on the verge Going for it! Centuries of groundwork from metaphysical doctrines to psychic experiences to modernized philosophies based on these metaphysical practices were poured into society. The dam was breaking, and the enemy was now coming in like a flood. There would be no stopping it.

 Marian appearances became commonplace. Phenomena that shook the world at Fatima in 1917 was now a common event. Prophecies, visions, Eucharistic miracles, statues weeping and crying and bleeding - uncommon things of the past were now occurring regularly. Marian adherents announced: there is a dramatic increase in Marian activity.

 Though I won't go into it, the restoration of the prophets with their new revelations rose in the mid- eighties to prepare the way for the Toronto Experience, the unifying of the Church, and the global celebrations in the year 2000. Vatican II was now in full operation as denominational walls and doctrinal differences began to fall on every side.

The pope expects for it to happen. The solution to all of the tribulations he saw in his visions was the consecration of Russia and the world to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. Later, a question was then posed of Pope John Paul II concerning the fate of the Church in Fatima's apocalyptic scenario [the Third Secret]. John Paul:
 
 
"We have to be prepared to suffer, before long, great trials which will require of us the disposition to sacrifice even our life ... for Christ. Through your prayers and mine, it is still possible to diminish this trial, but it is no longer possible to avert it, because only in this manner can the Church be effectively renewed. How many times has the renewal of the Church been brought about in blood! It will not be different this time."

Entering The '90s: An Entrenched New Age Movement

A United Europe is on the horizon for the '90s, and ecology is the new catalyst of an ecumenical movement saturated by New Age ideas. While the nations maneuver, Israel is at the center of world attention as the Middle East heads for the fulfillment of end-time prophecy. The foretold emergence of demonic teaching is evident in every area of our culture and everyone elses: secular and cosmic humanism as well as New Age occultic, psychic and spiritualistic techniques are everyday practices. Anti-Christian sentiment forges on, as stated by syndicated columnist John Lofton: "The war against God in this country, especially against Jesus Christ, is getting uglier, much uglier, much more explicit. And make no mistake about it, please. This war is against Christ."
