I don't know about new agers, but the old agers certainly had experiences face to face with the Lord.

Lord appeared unto Abram, Gen. 12:7 (Gen. 17:1; Gen. 18:1;).
I have seen God face to face, Gen. 32:30
they saw the God of Israel, Ex. 24:10
Lord spake unto Moses face to face, Ex. 33:11
similitude of the Lord shall he behold, Num. 12:8
Lord … hath shewed us his glory, Deut. 5:24
Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face, Deut. 34:10
I saw also the Lord … high and lifted up, Isa. 6:1
upon the … throne was the likeness as the appearance of a man, Ezek. 1:26
I saw the Lord standing upon the altar, Amos 9:1
Esaias, when he saw his glory, John 12:41

And this is just the record of the Jews. I believe that God loves all his children. If he has the sons of Seth following his will, and chose to given them knowledge, who am I to argue?

I'm not saying it's true, I'm saying I don't have a problem with it if it is. I think I will get the book.

Its been a while but doesn’t the Christ consciousness equal gnosis? It doesn’t believe so much in the person of Jesus as the ‘essence’?

Left one more off.... ;) Daniel 3:25 (NKJ)
(Story of Shadrach, Meschach, and Abednigo being thrown in the firey furnace)

Then King Nebuchadnezzar was astonished; and he rose in haste and spoke, saying to his counselors, “Did we not cast three men bound into the midst of the fire?”
They answered and said to the king, “True, O king.”
25 “Look!” he answered, “I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire; and they are not hurt, and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.”

The Jews were God’s chosen people. It doesn’t say that God appeared to other people.

And if He hasn't?
