There sure are some small minded & scared people in the world!
I read the book and watched the webcasts for "A New Earth" with Oprah and Eckhart Tolle and don't recall them renouncing Jesus Christ, it's only that their interpreting what Jesus said and it doesn't conform with what's being taught in the church.
From a very young age I've always felt that there was more to Jesus Christ and his sayings then what is taught. That he was misinterpreted by men trying to control other men and of course women.
As Eckhart kept bringing up sayings from the bible I kept getting the feeling that, that's what I've always felt Jesus
really meant.
"We need to understand here that heaven is not a location but refers to the inner realm of consciousness. This is the esoteric meaning of the word, and this is also its meaning in the teachings of Jesus."
