I owe Tal Brooke a tremendous debt for writing this book. Because of it, I have been set free from some really bad things and been given life like I _never_ could have imagined! If you can find a copy of this book, I really encourage you to read it and be blessed by it! I read it about 12 years ago and I'm still benefiting!

I came across this book at a New Age convention in LA. I had delved into New Age religion for 3-4 years, even seeking a spirit guide, with the caveat however that JC the Boss's Son must approve thereof. Silly me, I thought Christian and New Age beliefs were compatible. Erroneous. Actually Frank Peretti's book This Present Darkness gave me some qualms but this book was the clincher, taking a more systematic and logical approach to debunk new age beliefs. A must read for those blessed with a tolerance for large vocabulary. The author was a former New Age disciple.

This is probably one of the bests books i have ever read on the new age, NWO from a Christian perspective. Mr Brooke has provided a thoughtful, well written and informative look into a world that many don't know exists. Well worth a read from Christians or non alike.

This book will no doubt infuriate the "politically correct" lobby but then the truth always hurts! Mr Brooke states how today's antilife, antifamily trends are, together with the popularity of various occult, New Age practices paving the way for the coming of the Antichrist! I find Tal's ideas on the sanctity of human life and the family refreshing. No doubt many readers will think him terribly old-fashioned but have radical feminism and the permissive society really brought people happiness? However I do feel he should show more compassion to women who have had abortions and to homosexuals (without condoning their actions). This is the only thing that stops me from giving the book 5 stars.

Tal Brooke is an author and researcher, who is also the current president of the Spiritual Counterfeits Project. He has also written books such as The other side of death: Does death seal your destiny?, One World, Avatar of Night, Special Millennial Edition, Virtual Gods, Riders of the Cosmic Circuit, The Dark Side of Superconsciousness, etc.

He wrote in the Introduction to this 1989 book, "The Global Age is right upon us. It is on the horizon of our lifetime. This New World Order has been anticipated with hope. It has been seen as a necessity for planetary survival and heralded by a multitude from among the world's most esteemed and renowned leaders in every field. It has been a long time in the making, its pieces falling into place from divergent realms... A flood of New Age thinkers are there to pick up the ball... Bantam starts its New Age book line. Bestsellers dealing with New Age themes fill the New York Times bestseller list... Now let us look behind the scenes over the centuries at the incredible building blocks of this enormous structure coming together from all sides. The various rainbow filaments pulling together the disparate pieces are a thing of wonder as you peer behind the main stage of the world."

Here are some additional quotations from the book:

"These mysteries of the ages are now being revealed before the world. We glimpse them in Shirley MacLaine's televised account of her own birth into the New Age. In this lies the central creed of New Age beliefs. Most central of all is the discovery of the divinizing of man... a global process of objective and conscious divinizing of the race that will change the entire earth." (Pg. 76)
"By the 1960's America passed through the rainbow bridge as many decided what sort of 'truth' they wanted. What a handful had experienced at the turn of the century was commonly being experienced by an entire generation. The youth of the sixties started reveling in the delicious newness of something that held great promise and unlimited horizons. Indeed this was a rainbow bridge for the New World Order." (Pg. 179)
"The pieces of the New World Order seem to be fitting into place very quickly. Economic Babylon is unfolding. The political powers of unity are marching ahead. And a social corrupting process combined with a spiritual apostasy is moving ahead at an unprecedented rate." (Pg. 273)
"The dazzling empire that came in like a rainbow will be no more. The New World Order will be blotted out, replaced by the New Creation. Only God can remake the universe---not with the glue of human or diabolical cunning, but with a single word uttered from highest heaven!" (Pg. 288)

This book makes many assumptions, not the least of which is an unflinching belief in conspiracy theories to explain history and ultimately, what Mr. Brooke believes are the end-times. His conspiracy views are wrapped in pious terminology, yet Brooke's "hidden hand" approach to history is slavish to John Birch ideology--perhaps even anti-Semitism. If you like Pat Roberson's "New World Order", you'll like this, too--which is no compliment!
