Angel numbers and recurring numerical patterns are often presented as messages from angels, God, or the universe. Their growing popularity has carried these New Age beliefs into social media, popular culture, and even some professing Christian circles. In this episode of Contending for the Word, Dave Jenkins speaks with Doreen Virtue about the New Age origins and spiritual dangers of angel numbers. Doreen explains how she coined and popularized the phrase during her former New Age career and how the supposed meanings were received through meditation, altered states, and automatic writing. Dave and Doreen examine why angel numbers are a form of divination, why biblical numbers should never be turned into personal revelation, and how mystical signs can draw people away from the sufficient Word of God. They also discuss counterfeit revelation, spiritual downloads, biblical decision-making, spiritual discernment, and how Christians can lovingly help friends and family involved in New Age spirituality. God's people do not need hidden messages or secret revelations. God has spoken clearly and sufficiently in Scripture, which equips believers to test spiritual claims, resist deception, and remain grounded in Jesus Christ.
