Follow Christ not Worldly Psychology
Once again, psychology gets it wrong when it proclaims that "hurt people hurt people." It is irrational and devilish to use this as an excuse.
I know many people who were deeply hurt by others who treat others better because they hate hurting people.
Hurting others is a choice. Anyone who harms others because they were hurt is exacting revenge on those who never harmed them. It is irrational to harm those who never harmed us. Even revenge against those who hurt us is against God.
Luke 6:27-28 "27 But to those of you who will listen, I say: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, 28 bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you."
Psychology says we are to forgive those who are not repentant for our own sake, but we don't have to remain friends. This too is foolishness. We are to forgive when someone confesses in order to restore a relationship.
Luke 17:3-5 "…3 Watch yourselves. If your brother sins, rebuke him; and if he repents, forgive him. 4Even if he sins against you seven times in a day, and seven times returns to say, ‘I repent,’ you must forgive him.” 5 The apostles said to the Lord, “Increase our faith!”…"
Psychology says, "believe in yourself, trust in yourself", when God says to trust in Him alone.
Proverbs 3:5-6 "5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your paths straight.…"
Psychology says people are basically good, which is total nonsense. If this were true, there would be no crime in the world.
God says, Jeremiah 17:9 " 9The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?"
Psychology says it is child abuse to use physical discipline to train a child. But God said; Proverbs 13:24 "24 He who spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him disciplines him diligently."
Many things we were taught over the years about life came from Freudian psychology directly contrary to the Bible and the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Freud sought to discount and disprove God; in so doing, he created a belief system opposite of the principles of God. It caused many people to do the easy thing instead of the right thing. It caused people to place their trust in feelings and reactions instead of good scriptural sense.
Isn't it time to re-evaluate everything secular religion taught us and begin praying for wisdom from God to retrain ourselves to think with the mind of Christ?
