Reincarnation Exposed

Nearly one-third of Americans now believe in Reincarnation. Reincarnation, in its purest
form, comes to us from the Hindu religion. Today it also embraced by most Wiccan
groups, New Agers, and others. Reincarnation teaches a birth-death-rebirth cycle based
on a person’s Karma. A bad person will come back as a lower form. A good person will
be reborn to a higher station in life. If perfection is ever achieved, one may escape this
treadmill-like existence and either merge with the divine or melt into the universe.
God’s Word reveals that reincarnation is a deception which contradicts both the biblical
doctrine of the Resurrection and the observable evidence. Here are some of the many
problems with Reincarnation:

1) If Reincarnation is true, mankind should be progressing. Human nature and conduct
should be improving. However, the truth is, moral depravity is worsening as the Bible
anticipates (Matthew 24:12; 2 Timothy 3:1-5; etc.).

2) The vast majority of the population has no memory of their prior lives. If we’re all a
product of previous life-cycles, why don’t we remember our previous lives? How can we
work off bad karma if we don’t recognize our prior mistakes?

3) Though there are some who claim to recall past lives, the Bible reveals that demons
have existed for millennia. These demons are able to place thoughts in a person’s mind in
order to deceive (1 Chronicles 21:1; 1 Timothy 4:1-2; Revelation 12:9; 16:14; etc.).

4) If we are all being recycled, where are all the new babies coming from? There were an
estimated 100 million souls a few thousand years ago, but today we’re approaching 7
billion people. Reincarnation denies a Creator God, so where are all these souls coming
from?

5) India is the cradle of Reincarnation, yet India is one of the world’s most woeful
nations. Though the people are intelligent and industrious, and natural resources abound,
cows and rats eat their fill while many humans starve. Countless city streets are awash
with filth, lined with starving beggars, and suffering is everywhere. With thousands of
years to perfect Reincarnation, and countless gurus and holy men, why isn’t India the
shining star of human progress and spiritual evolution?

6) Gandhi stated that Reincarnation is a burden to great to bear. He saw the fruits of this
practice around his country. All abroad was hopelessness and despair.

7) To break free from Reincarnation, one must live a harmless life. You can’t even kill a
microbe. Yet our immune system kills millions each day. This means there is no hope of
ever escaping the wheel of Karma.

8) If you see a beggar wallowing in the gutter don’t you dare help him! He is working off
bad Karma. If you help him now, he will just have to come back in another lifetime to
work off his bad karma all over again. This is why India had no hospitals or charitable
institutions until the coming of Christian missionaries.

The truth is Reincarnation offers no hope, provides no answers, ignores the clear
evidence, and contradicts our God-given conscience. It is a demonically inspired
philosophy intended to keep its adherents slaves to sin and death.
