God’s Holiness: Why Feelings Can’t Be the Test of His Presence | New Age to Christ with Doreen Virtue
Podcast: New Age to Christ
Teacher: Doreen Virtue
Many women tell me they use feelings as a test of whether God is near. But as Christians, our faith is not based on emotions—it’s grounded in the truth of God’s Word.
In this episode of the New Age to Christ Podcast, Doreen Virtue teaches from Isaiah 6 about the holiness of God. When Isaiah saw the Lord high and lifted up, he fell on his face, convicted of sin. Yet God responded with cleansing grace.
- Why feelings are not a trustworthy test of God’s presence
- What it means that God is holy, holy, holy
- How God’s holiness reveals our sin and points us to Christ
- Why repentance flows from understanding His holiness
Key Verse: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts; the whole earth is full of His glory.” — Isaiah 6:3
Through Christ’s shed blood, we are cleansed, forgiven, and welcomed into fellowship with our holy God.

Before her salvation, Doreen frequently appeared on Oprah, CNN, The View, Coast to Coast and other liberal secular media. After the Holy Spirit convicted her of her sins, while she read Deuteronomy 18:10-12, Doreen repented and gave her life to Jesus as her Lord and Savior. Doreen has been helping professing Christians to identify and avoid new age and new thought deception. Doreen volunteers in discipling women who’ve been saved out of New Age in a private Facebook group. Doreen was a speaker at the Answers in Genesis 2025 women’s conference at the Ark Encounter.
