People feed into Oprah's false gospel because they want to be deceived. They all want to talk about being spiritual, going to heaven, being good. They desire to talk about all things spiritual and praise themselves.
But there is one thing they have not obeyed that they do not want to talk about, and that is to repent and believe the Gospel. People are so deceived, they wish to talk about everything else but this, and God isn't about to write a new gospel to appease them. Clincher is they all, or at least a high percentage of them, know this to be true here in America.

I agree, but I know God would use her knowledge and reach to glorify Him and reach people that wouldn't give us the time of day in a way we never could. I agree with you 100% and truth is truth period, but my point is that in that situation I don't see God or Oprah wanting to hide that fact at all anyway, but use it to reach out. He uses our perspectives to make disciples of every nation, I know I will never forget who I was outside Christ, and I am amazed by His power to use me to draw people to Himself. Just WOW! And praise Jesus name.

If you read the rest of the verses, it's talking about not judging hypocritically, which is why I responded the way I did.
Also says in John 7:24 "Do not judge by appearances, but judge with right judgment.”
I pray for all the lost in the world when I pray, so I'd Oprah's lost, I'm praying for her salvation.
The problem with this concept of judging is that it is so blown out of proportion, all because of lack of understanding, in my opinion.
There are too types of judging, each has to be understood in the correct context. In the past I often misunderstood this concept myself, but over the past few years, and as time goes by, better study, it becomes clearer.
Now when it comes to "judging others" the correct context has to be applied, now that is either in the context of decision making or carrying out a sentence in relation to a punishment of a crime committed.
Now we need to make decisions everyday, this is fact. When people spread a false/deceptive teaching that contradicts sound doctrine, one has to make a decision to either accept the deceptive teaching, or dismiss it, or perhaps even condemn such a deceptive teaching, but some people don't seem to understand the difference between condemning a person and condemning a teaching/doctrine.
But when it comes to this gender identity madness, its a losing battle. If a person even tries to condemn such a theory as unacceptable, the person who believes this crap automatically assumes they are being condemned. You just cannot reason with some of these snowflakes and fruitcakes out there. And there are clips on Youtube to that show this.
"Snowflakes and fruitcakes?". Is name-calling, or labeling others supposed to show your superior spirituality? I believe it shows a hard heart, and a lack of understanding of what Jesus taught. I expect the lost to talk like that, but aren't we supposed to be different than them now?
As far as judgment, we are always to do so, yes, but not as the world judges, for if we judge harshly, we shall be judged harshly. We are not to judge according to the appearance of things, but rather to judge righteous judgment. We shall have judgment without mercy that have shown no mercy, for mercy rejoices against judgment.
I refer to snowflakes and fruitcakes as snowflakes is the generation of young people we have today. Snowflakes is in relation to people who have become so sensitive that they have been so conditioned that anything that people say, they will take offense. Fruitcakes is a informal term when it comes to insanity, or referring to people who are mad. It is in the dictionary. A lot of people speak using informal language. It is no different than calling a man a dog if a man has done something to warrant that.
We live in a world today that we have a very young generation of people where in my opinion, one cannot talk to them without risk them taking what you say the wrong way. And I blame the whole education system on this. And then you have these so called experts who teach theories that are at its very core are rotten, and it is nothing more than madness. How does one fight something like this? How does one reason with someone who will not listen to reason?
I know what it is like to be brainwashed in certain beliefs, as I have been through it, and I know what it is like being sucked into a cult, as I have been through it (of which resulted in me having my very first breakdown). And that first breakdown I had all those years ago did a lot of damage to me, especially my faith. But this was long time ago.
And by the way, there is also very strong and powerful language used in the bible as well for that matter. The reference to "brood of vipers" is very powerful and strong language when understood in the proper context.

First, caps is ridiculous. It doesn't support anything you say, it just makes reading your comments annoying.
Second, whether or not i know if a celeb is a witch affects me how?
And who are they deceiving? Oh, right, people who are deceived already.
Regardless of celebrities and what they believe God gave a mission to Christians.
Also it doesn't take being a celebrity to deceive people. There's plenty of preachers our there doing the same thing. And Cult leaders. Everyone that doesn't know God is deceived by something or someone. Is it Really our job as Christians to nose into it all? Or just preach?
What a celebrity believes, and whether or not they are a witch, is entirely irrelevant to the life of the believer. It's pointless fluff that clogs up your mind to spend time making guesses, and spiritually unhealthy to accuse them of anything you don't have solid, verifiable evidence, and not circumstantial evidence.
All famous entertainers have "handlers" which are agents of the devil (humans who control entertainers so they spread a false message). Oprah has handlers. Her message is not her own.
