Testimonies
"Am I Being Deceived? should be required reading at every seminary in the land."
-- Rev. Barry Church, Graduate of Oral Roberts University
"Mark and Patti Virkler have performed a great service to the Body of Christ with the release of this book (Am I Being Deceived?). It is both grievous and amazing that Christians have been so seemingly paranoid regarding issues associated with the New Age movement. While the Bible does indeed call us to be wise as serpents and not allow our thinking to go astray, it also tells us that greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world. Could it be that far too many Christians appear to have more faith in the ability of the enemy to pull them off course than they do in God to keep them secure?
"I am excited to recommend this book as it contrasts the beauty of the real with the sometimes not so subtle ugliness of the counterfeit. It not only looks at New Age thinking, but it also looks at the deception inherent in those caught up in the opposite extreme, i.e., legalism."
-- Jerry Graham
Wow, I devoured the book “Am I Being Deceived?” in two hours last night with notes in the margins, highlights, and all the while texting my husband juicy comments from the book.
What a wonderful revelation of 2 false religions/counterfeits to Christianity - New Age or Pharisee-ism. Absolutely right on!!! I am thrilled to have found such a solid overview of this difficult and touchy subject. Every Spirit-led church should make it mandatory reading and give it out to visitors.

The Constitution of the United States clearly states that the government cannot interfere with religious faith. Yet during the last two years, the government demanded that believers not gather together, and if they did, they were not to sing or shout in worship - behaviors that are clearly historically and biblically integral aspects of our Chistian faith. And most pastors and churches submitted to man rather than God. Now, many pastors have awakened and are declaring, "Never again" by signing this statement: https://acts529.com/

Harvard Medical School’s Dr. Marcia Angell was the Editor-in-Chief at the New England Journal of Medicine for 20 years.
After twenty years of editing and publishing scientific papers, she has become deeply skeptical, not only about peer-review, but about the entire process of journals and even about “experts.” She said:

God has promised to deal justly with mankind. God’s covenant blessings and covenant curses relate directly to those who hear and obey His voice, or don’t hear and obey his voice (Deut. 28). These promises are extensive and touch every area of our lives either lifting us up or destroying us, and they are re-affirmed to us through Jesus Christ: “As many as are the promises of God, in Him they are yes; therefore also through Him is our Amen to the glory of God through us” (2 Cor. 1:20).
