James 3:1 (NIV) Not many of you should presume to be teachers, my brothers, because you know that we who teach will be judged more strictly.

Ephesians 4:14 (NLT) We won’t be tossed and blown about by every wind of new teaching. We will not be influenced when people try to trick us with lies so clever they sound like the truth.

BIBLICAL RESPONSE: God’s design is for believers to worship and grow together. BIBLICAL RESPONSE: God’s design is for believers to worship and grow together. EXAMINING THE CLAIMS OF “A NEW EARTH”

Acts 2:42-47 (NLT) All the believers devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, and to fellowship, and to sharing in meals (including the Lord’s Supper), and to prayer… And all the believers met together in one place and shared everything they had… They worshiped together at the Temple each day, met in homes for the Lord’s

Acts 2:42-47 (NLT) Supper, and shared their meals with great joy and generosity—all the while praising God and enjoying the goodwill of all the people. And each day the Lord added to their fellowship those who were being saved.

Hebrews 10:25 (NLT) And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near.

Philippians 4:6-7 (NIV) Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

FALSE CLAIM #11: The hope of the world is a higher consciousness. FALSE CLAIM #11: The hope of the world is a higher consciousness. EXAMINING THE CLAIMS OF “A NEW EARTH”

James 1:14-15 (NLT) Temptation comes from our own desires, which entice us and drag us away. These desires give birth to sinful actions. And when sin is allowed to grow, it gives birth to death.

BIBLICAL RESPONSE: The hope of the world is Jesus. BIBLICAL RESPONSE: The hope of the world is Jesus. EXAMINING THE CLAIMS OF “A NEW EARTH”

Isaiah 53:4-6 (NLT) Yet it was our weaknesses he carried; it was our sorrows that weighed him down. And we thought his troubles were a punishment from God, a punishment for his own sins! But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. All of us, like

Isaiah 53:4-6 (NLT) sheep, have strayed away. We have left God’s paths to follow our own. Yet the Lord laid on him the sins of us all.

Matthew 12:21 (NLT) “And his name will be the hope of all the world.”

Acts 10:43 (NLT) “He is the one all the prophets testified about, saying that everyone who believes in him will have their sins forgiven through his name.”

Judges 21:25 (NLT) …All the people did whatever seemed right in their own eyes.

“What this fails to acknowledge is that man dos not define reality; man does not determine what truth is.” ~ James A. Smith Jr. “What this fails to acknowledge is that man dos not define reality; man does not determine what truth is.” ~ James A. Smith Jr.

BIBLICAL RESPONSE: The authority for Truth is God speaking through His Word. BIBLICAL RESPONSE: The authority for Truth is God speaking through His Word. EXAMINING THE CLAIMS OF “A NEW EARTH”

2 Timothy 3:16 (NLT) All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right.

Colossians 2:8-10 (NLT) Don’t let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers of this world, rather than from Christ. For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body. So you also are complete through your union with Christ…

Acts 17:11 (NLT) And the people of Berea were more open-minded than those in Thessalonica, and they listened eagerly to Paul’s message. They searched the Scriptures day after day to see if Paul and Silas were teaching the truth.
