CHARLES STANLEY CONTINUES TO PROMOTE CATHOLIC-NEW AGE CONTEMPLATIVE MYSTICISM (Friday Church News Notes, September 13, 2013, wayoflife.org [email protected], 866-295-4143) - For the second time since 2011, Charles Stanley’s In Touch magazine has featured an article written by contemplative prayer promoter Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, an “ordained Baptist minister” who practices the Roman Catholic “Saint” Benedict’s rule of life. In his book The Wisdom of Stability, Wilson-Hartgrove promotes the writings of Thomas Merton (a Catholic Buddhist who believed that God is in all men) and Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, a Catholic priest who believed in evolution and whose “cosmic Christ” is in every human being. Wilson-Hartgrove spoke at the 2011 Wild Goose Festival in North Carolina, a “four-day revival camp featuring music, yoga, liberal talk and embracing of gays and lesbians.” We agree with the following assessment: “The fact is, anyone who is drawn to Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, as Wilson-Hartgrove is, has got to be following a different spirit and another gospel or at the very least greatly deceived. ... If the mystics whom Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove gravitates to are right, then Jesus’ words that He is the only Way to the Father are wrong. You can’t have it both ways. The opposite view--the contemplative--is that God is in all things, including all people. This is what all mystics believe, across the board. And if that were true, then the need for a Savior would vanish, and there wouldn’t be any need for ‘one way’ to God because man is already indwelled with God and a part of God” (“Sad News about Charles Stanley’s In Touch Magazine,” Lighthouse Trails, July 25, 2013). Most of the popular evangelical leaders, are promoting contemplative prayer, and few things are more spiritually dangerous.
