Is Sickness Just in Your Mind? The Occult Roots of New Thought Theology Unmasked

New Thought: A Deceptive Theology That Opens Demonic Doors

New Thought is a spiritual movement that has deeply infiltrated Western culture, modern psychology, and even some church teachings. On the surface, it promises positivity, healing, and the power of the mind to overcome sickness, failure, and suffering. But underneath this alluring philosophy lies a dangerous heresy—and a demonic trap.

This belief system teaches that all reality is divine, that human beings are divine in essence, and that “Infinite Intelligence”—a vague impersonal force often equated with “God”—can be tapped into through right thinking. The New Thought movement says that sickness is an illusion of the mind, and with proper belief and alignment with divine thought, all disease can be cured.

What Is the Source of New Thought?

To spiritually discern whether a belief system is from God, we must ask:

1. What Was the Founder’s Spirituality?

New Thought originated in the late 19th century, with major figures like Phineas Quimby, who dabbled in hypnosis and mesmerism. Quimby believed that illness was caused by incorrect beliefs and could be cured through mental correction. His ideas heavily influenced Mary Baker Eddy (Christian Science), Ernest Holmes (Science of Mind), and others—all of whom rejected biblical Christianity.

2. What Culture Did It Come Out Of?

New Thought arose in a time of spiritual experimentation in America, mixing Eastern mysticism, Gnosticism, metaphysical idealism, and even elements of the occult. It borrows from Hinduism (divine self), Buddhism (illusion of suffering), and paganism (impersonal energy source).

3. What Were Their Core Beliefs?

New Thought’s fundamental claims include:

• God is an impersonal “Infinite Intelligence,” not a personal Father.

• Man is divine and shares God’s nature.

• Thoughts create reality; “right thinking” brings healing and prosperity.

• Sickness, poverty, and evil are illusions of the carnal mind.

4. Who Is Their God or gods?

The “god” of New Thought is not the God of the Bible. It is often referred to as “Source,” “Divine Mind,” or “Infinite Intelligence”—a force, not a person. This aligns more with the New Age concept of pantheism than with the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob who revealed Himself through His Son Jesus Christ.

5. What Is the Purpose of This Modality?

The goal is self-realization and personal empowerment. New Thought seeks to manifest healing, success, and prosperity through affirmations and mind control. It elevates man to god-status and reduces God to a principle that can be used or manipulated.

Why It’s Spiritually Dangerous

Engaging in New Thought practices—even reading materials like The Secret, Think and Grow Rich, or attending churches influenced by this mindset—can invite demonic deception and spiritual bondage. Here's why:

✦ It Replaces Faith in Christ with Faith in Self

Romans 1:25 warns that many will “exchange the truth of God for a lie, and worship and serve the creature rather than the Creator.”

New Thought teaches self-worship in spiritual disguise. The idea that you are divine and can heal yourself denies the finished work of the Cross.

✦ It Opens Doors to Familiar Spirits

What seems like “divine downloads” or “positive energies” can in fact be demonic whispers. Deuteronomy 18:10–12 strictly forbids all contact with supernatural forces outside of the Holy Spirit, calling them abominations.

Many people who practice this theology experience:

• Unexplainable illnesses

• Anxiety and torment despite positive affirmations

• Insomnia or night terrors

• Hearing voices

• Spiritual confusion

• Alienation from biblical truth

These are not symptoms of psychological issues but manifestations of demonic influence.

---

What If You or Your Ancestors Practiced This?

Even if you personally never embraced New Thought, if your parents, grandparents, or religious leaders did, there could be spiritual consequences. Exodus 20:5 warns that the sins of the fathers visit the third and fourth generation. That includes:

• Persistent illness that doesn’t respond to prayer or medicine

• Cycles of mental torment

• Blocked spiritual growth

• Financial or relational collapse despite efforts

New Thought beliefs give demons legal ground to operate under the guise of “truth.” Until they are renounced and broken in the name of Jesus, the door stays open.

Scriptures That Refute New Thought Teachings

📖 Isaiah 45:5 – “I am the Lord, and there is no other; apart from me there is no God.”
📖 John 14:6 – “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.”
📖 Genesis 3:5 – “You will be like God…” (Satan’s original deception!)
📖 Proverbs 14:12 – “There is a way that seems right to a man, but its end is the way of death.”
📖 Colossians 2:8 – “See to it that no one takes you captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy…”

---

Steps to Freedom

If you’ve embraced New Thought beliefs, prayed affirmations, or followed teachers like Louise Hay, Neville Goddard, or Ernest Holmes:

1. Repent – Acknowledge it as sin and rebellion against God.

2. Renounce – Verbally reject every belief, teacher, and spirit connected to New Thought.

3. Break – In the name of Jesus, break generational curses and soul ties tied to this false religion.

4. Remove – Clean your home of New Thought books, journals, or images.

5. Reclaim – Declare the Lordship of Jesus over your life and mind.

---

📢 WARNING TO THE CHURCH:

Some churches today are subtly blending New Thought ideas into their teachings. Beware of phrases like:

• “Speak it into existence”

• “You are enough”

• “The power is in you”
  These mirror the serpent’s lie in Genesis 3. Stay alert. Test every spirit (1 John 4:1).

The Occult Roots of New Age Medicine and Its Deception in the Church

The Occult Roots of New Age Medicine and Its Deception in the Church

The rise of New Age medicine has flooded modern culture and even crept into Christian homes and churches. Behind its peaceful facade lies a dark agenda: a Satanic counterfeit of true, biblical healing. It’s a plan designed to weaken the Church, seduce believers away from God's Word, and prepare the world for the Antichrist.

Satan, the master deceiver, masquerades as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14). In John 10:10, Jesus warns us: “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.” One of the enemy’s most successful tools in this age is New Age spirituality, especially through “natural” healing methods that open doors to demonic oppression.

Homeopathy: A Hidden Occult Practice

Many consider homeopathy a harmless, alternative form of healing. But its spiritual roots reveal otherwise. Developed by German mystic physician Samuel Hahnemann (1755–1843), homeopathy is based on metaphysical principles rather than scientific principles. Remedies are created through "potentiation," a ritual of dilution and shaking meant to transfer “cosmic energy” into the medicine.

Practitioners admit this energy mirrors occult forces. James Kent, a leading homeopath, openly declared that homeopathy operates in the invisible spiritual realm, not the physical. Even George Vithoulkas, a famous homeopath, stated that the purpose of the practice is to “open the higher centers of the brain to celestial influx.”

This is not healing—this is demonic infiltration.

Physician H.J. Bopp observed nervous depression in families using homeopathy and warned of occult transmission. In fact, some homeopaths use divination tools like pendulums to determine remedies, functioning more like psychics than physicians.

Spiritual Warnings from Former New Agers

A former psychic healer exposed an even darker truth—many homeopathic remedies are “charged” with spells to increase their “effectiveness.” The more we examine the foundation of this modality, the more we see its alignment with sorcery, divination, and occult rituals, directly condemned in Scripture.

This aligns with Revelation 21:8, which warns that sorcerers (from the Greek word pharmakia) will have their place in the lake of fire. The W.E. Vine’s Expository Dictionary confirms that “pharmakia” refers to sorcery involving potions, spells, and magical enchantments—precisely what New Age medicine uses.

---

Why This Matters to the Church

Many Christians unknowingly turn to these remedies, thinking they are natural or safe. But when we trust in lesser spiritual forces rather than the Great Healer, we risk bondage, deception, and even spiritual oppression.

God already gave us a path for healing:

James 5:13–15 (KJV)

“Is any among you afflicted? let him pray... Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord... and the prayer of faith shall save the sick…”

God never removed healing from the Church. We did. As believers, we’ve replaced faith-based healing with pharmakia-based treatment. Instead of examining the spiritual roots of sickness—bitterness, trauma, sin, unforgiveness—we suppress symptoms with synthetic or occult-based medicine.

---

Medical Reality: Are We Better Off?

Here are the startling facts:

• The third leading cause of death in the U.S. is prescription drugs, not including street drugs.

• The seventh leading cause is surgical errors.

• Most medications do not cure disease, but merely manage symptoms.

Even worse, when people begin to rely on homeopathy or psychic healing, they may actually invite demonic influence into their lives under the guise of health.

---

God’s Healing Is Still Available

The Word of God gives explicit promises:

• Psalm 103:3 – “Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases.”

• Exodus 15:26 – “If thou wilt diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord... I will put none of these diseases upon thee... for I am the Lord that healeth thee.”

We are not without hope. But we must return to God’s ways. The modern Church has lost the practice of discernment, and we are warned:

Hebrews 5:14 – “But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.”

This includes discernment about what we allow into our bodies, who we receive prayer or treatment from, and what spiritual forces we may be unknowingly inviting.

---

Discern Before You Buy or Try Anything

If you're considering any health modality, ask:

• Who was the founder?

• What were their beliefs and spiritual practices?

• What culture or religion did it come from?

• Are there examples in Scripture that support it?

• Is this rooted in faith or in forbidden practices?

Remember, Satan loves to counterfeit what God created. New Age medicine may sound spiritual and peaceful, but it's a trap.

---

The Church Must Prepare

What happens when access to medical care is tied to the mark of the beast? Will you have enough faith and practice to go directly to the Lord for healing?

It’s time to raise up the body of Christ to take back their authority in healing and deliverance. People are dying for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6). Let’s return to the trustworthy source of life and healing—Jesus Christ.
