New Age, New Methods, Old Truth

"Then said H​e unto them​...​the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old."

The "New-Agers" greatest mistake is thinking because a new age brings new methods, it necessitates a new message. But the Bible teaches that although the age may change, and along with it the methods, the message stays forever the same. You'll notice when believers entered the New Testament era, with undoubtedly many changes taking place in all areas of life, the old, old gospel stayed the same. 

We have been sold the lie, by the progressives that if something is classified as "old," it is to be considered out-dated, antique, and has outlived its usefulness. But those of us who have experienced the life-giving, life-changing, power of the gospel of Jesus Christ, know better. It is as fresh and new to us who are believers as the day we first heard it, though that day may have been many, many years ago! Our theme song being-

"​I love to tell the story, 

for those who know it best 

seem hungering and thirsting 

to hear it like the rest. 

And when, in scenes of glory, 

I sing the new, new song, 

'twill be the old, old story 

that I have loved so long."

This blessed old gospel can be traced all the way back to Adam's substitutionary lamb in the garden; and also Abraham's day, when the gospel story was first preached to him on the mount, hundreds of years ago. Hence, each generation of God's elect will continue to sing, "It was good for our fathers, and it's good enough for me." I like that "Old-Time Religion!" Don't you? 

"That which is new in theology is not true; the gospel was​ of full stature at its very birth; no man can add to it or take away from it." (C.H. Spurgeon)
