Not a God that is only loving, but God that is both loving and merciful in it's proper place, and severest in punishment and vengeance in the proper place.
Its not loving and not meant to be, it's vengeance and hate, but those two things have a proper place. They are evil in wrong places, but in proper place, among the virtues.
Our intention is our state during a deed, and our intention is derived from our soul. Is our soul when doing a deed, really, finite, or linked to God? Is God not in the manifest horizon. Is not an evil life that of of a life a direction of running away from God or rebelling against God? How can God let that go?
Time is just a construct from God - the intention, the state, is linked to God, who is eternal. So the deed although in time is mixed with both time and eternal reality. If evil life one will be in hell forever as a result. God will not ever let it go.
From what I know new age has always been involved with things like crystal powers, energies, cosmic waves, that kind of thing.
But if you mention a magic spell, they go to pieces. (In my experience.)
Yes
There's lots of superficial fluff around.
This is true. But just to quote for Wikipedia "The exact origins of the New Age movement remain an issue of debate; Melton asserted that it emerged in the early 1970s,[85] whereas Hanegraaff instead traced its emergence to the latter 1970s, adding that it then entered its full development in the 1980s.[86] This early form of the movement was based largely in Britain and exhibited a strong influence from theosophy and Anthroposophy.[83] Hanegraaff termed this early core of the movement the New Age sensu stricto, or "New Age in the strict sense".[87]" New Age - Wikipedia
Ok, then your idea of god is not the same as what is in the Bible. For example because:
By what the Bible tells, righteous will have eternal life and unrighteous are utterly destroyed.
I would say it started in the late 60's with hippies, as exemplified in the Hair musical.
I believe we are living in a new age as distinct from those dominated by Christianity, Islam and the like. There are a number of new religious movements that have emerged in the last one to two hundred years. There are even newer movements that emerged out of the 60s to 80s. I'd be a little circumspect in deciding which ones best reflect of God.
What exactly do you mean by that?
That God is behind new age
I meant what do you mean by "new age movement"
The timeless omnipresence of Deity forever stays unchanging in its essence in the midst of all appearances of change. In this context I propose the omnipresent of Spirit as fundamental, the all-including & concluding consciousness of the ONE, The ALL. One Universal Absolute Reality Prevails in all as all. There is nothing 'else'. This is the absolute Reality View looking out from the Absolute Itself, in toto! - since absolute reality is what IS..... it includes The ONE and the Many; the primal Unity and all diversity which arises within the One Unity, the Whole and its parts, - all that is known and unknown. Infinity includes and transcends all forever, it permeates all thresholds. Infinity includes all paths because all paths are inclusive unto Itself because all comes from the Infinite One and returns to the Infinite One, since the One is all there IS anyways 
every movement is a movement of love, what is old is new again
I don't know if any religion (old or new) is really from God (as I understand this means revealed religion) or it only claims so. I think so because I haven't seen any reliable evidence yet.
