Truly Powerful Love

God's truth empowers us to help each other, dear Church of our same Master and Savior Jesus Christ. We don't need to ask Satan his opinion! We should protect our right to help each other. The Bible is powerful in its truth. God's instruction for our soul is useful. Don't disregard it. Don't disregard Him! Understand that the whole person goes together - prayerfully subjugate your sinning body to God through our Lord Jesus Christ, sing joyfully, and rely on God's Word to suffuse your very being in all areas with His real, useful, whole, loving, powerful truth. God's Word, our Master Jesus, is Truth. Help each other with mental problems. The World knows some things, but mixes in falsehood that hurts us. We can discover the true things from the Bible, and He hasn't told us any falsehood, because He's good and He loves us.

Just because the Bible isn't an advanced physics book, that doesn't mean it isn't an advanced textbook of life (it is)! And it gives us the background to understand how God can and does give individuals clarity to pursue any human endeavor with the deepest rigor and greatest finesse, as we choose to invest ourselves into any area of life, including wondering about gravity and stars, exchange of useful and necessary goods, and about the human soul.

"I can do all things through Christ Who strengthens me." Indeed.

Stop your psychoheresy, dear Church, and learn discernment, and shake off what you know is false - if there's fear in it, like a fear that you aren't qualified when you know you are, and that you will be called out as unqualified or even (gasp!) sued for your loving help ..well, that's the extending love of the Christian when we know God's love so closely that we're willing to do whatever's necessary to help our sibling in Christ.

We know that the World shouldn't be made to think that its mental health equates with salvation from the death that sin brings, and so we're careful not to insinuate such a falsehood to the World which dies regardless of their success in every one of the aspects of life that they know how to measure. 

We help each other as we know truth and believe His truth in faith - we accept help about what hasn't been thoroughly proven to us, so long as it's right. After all, wrong things can strongly be projected as proven, and we can't really trust our own senses to the ultimate degree, but we can trust Him. 

God's truth is where it's at!

Stop referring people to AA meetings and psychological counseling. Christian counselors should rethink everything from the biblical perspective, starting with prayer and a book by book deep dive into every word of God, by which we live. There's so much richness in His Word that we've forgotten to preach in most churches. Rediscover His Truth, and then you'll know just how to help the siblings in Christ, in love, and in the faithful power of godliness!
