OH NO, not another one!!! I am still getting over "The Prayer of Jabez", "The Shack" and "The Purpose Driven Life." Authors think they can make up anything they like and God will bless it.
The book "Jesus Calling" is another new age book by a woman who claims to get special messages from God. I can't tell you the number of books over the years that were deceptive, misleading and downright heretical, that sadly many believers embraced.
This book, according to others who have read it, is fraught with heresy and new age teachings including channeling, allowing a spirit to speak to her while she writes down what the spirit says.
God is clear that any "new revelation" not already in the Word is nothing more than adding to God's Word and therefore forbidden.
Revelation 22:8 "I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book,"
Matthew 24:24 "For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. "
1 Corinthians 4:6 "Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively applied to myself and Apollos for your sakes, so that in us you may learn not to exceed what is written, so that no one of you will become arrogant in behalf of one against the other."
Bottom line: There is no need for any new revelation, everything we have is in the Word of God inspired by Him and complete. Anything added to the Word is sin worthy of rejection.
