After wandering in New Age spirituality for 35+ years each, 2 Dutch women in Spain radically come to faith in 2018. Their eyes are opened to the Way, the Truth and the Life: Jesus Christ. Their lives change completely and they now work at New Page Ministries: from New Age to God’s Word.
Our mission is to bring people from New Age spirituality to the truth of God´s Word.
What is New Age?
A simple description of New Age is that it is a form of spirituality in which everyone chooses their own path, where truth is personal, feelings and experiences are leading, and in which many spiritual practices are welcomed. It is a global movement focused on love, light and unity. It is the broad way.
Some 2,000 years ago in the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus also spoke of the broad way and the narrow path:
“Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.” Matthew 7:13-14
Life or death?
Evangelism is vital and is one of our focal points. Jesus Himself says, “I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to the Father but through Me.” (John 14:6) and “This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent.” (John 17:3)
Since the command is to make disciples (Mat. 28:19-20), our desire is that each new believer will be included in a local God-centered congregation.
The importance to discern between truth and lies
We see around us what the apostle Paul already wrote about in a letter to his disciple Timothy:
“For the time is coming when people will not endure sound teaching, but having itching ears they will accumulate for themselves teachers to suit their own passions, and will turn away from listening to the truth and wander off into myths.” 2 Timothy 4:3-4
Jesus Himself says that only the truth sets free (John 8:32). Equipping in discernment is one of our other focal points.
