The Secret

Anyone else hear about "The Secret" & The Center for Universal Truth?

"Because of the The Secret, there is renewed interest in the ancient wisdom and principles that are discussed in the film. As the panel of experts in the film suggests, these teachings are available to all who seek them. At The Center for Universal Truth, we learn, practice and live by these principles." (http://www.centerfortruth.org/the_secret.htm)

The Secret has recently been bandied about here at the Krueger household and also with another couple friend of ours as we saw the segment on Oprah about this new craze that people are buying into across the nation.

Here are my thoughts...

2 Tim 4:2-5, "Preach the Word: be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage- with great patience and careful instruction. For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine (like this?). Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers (say 24?) to say what their itching ears want to hear ("This is The Secret to everything - the secret to unlimited joy, health, money, relationships, love, youth: everything you have ever wanted." ). They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths. But you, keep your head in all situations, endure hardship, do the work of an evangelist..."

One final word: "For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. It teaches us to say 'No' to ungodliness & worldly passions, and live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope- the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ," Titus 2:11-13
