Get yourself sorted out.

A few points to get your teeth into;

The term "Psychiatry" was invented in 1808 by J C Reil. Not to be confused with J C Ryle.
Reil was not a Christian, though his father was a Lutheran pastor.

Carl Jung wrote "the secret of life is found "at the mystical heart of all religions".  He has been described as "the Father of Neo-Gnosticism and the New Age Movement,"

Thomas Szasz argued that mental illness was a myth used to disguise moral conflicts, He has said, "serious persons ought not to take psychiatry seriously - except as threat to reason, responsibility and liberty".
Now note this! Szasz was professor emeritus 0f Psychiatry, State University, NY. He died in 2012.
 You may need to rethink things!
We do bear in mind that mental disorders can be produced by various causes. An imbalance of sodium levels can play havoc with one's thought processes and can take a long time to be resolved.

Case study still to come. Keep reading. Keep praying. sesSee comment below.e

Mind the Shrink.

Should a believer visit a psychiatrist?

Answer this question first: Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? Jeremiah 8: 22

Your visit to the couch is an indication you have no confidence in the promises of God.

Will you let godless men into the recesses of your mind? Your renewed mind (assuming you really have been born again) is the citadel of Christ.  Otherwise you have a reprobate mind.

If you are troubled in the mind, here is your prescription. You need a Bible. (Make sure you have a God-given copy), and a concordance. Search out references to “mind”. Sort them into their two categories. Those relating to a sound mind (2 Tim.1: 7) and those relating to a defiled mind (Titus 1: 15). Meditiate on the sound group of verses. Go on your way rejoicing. If this does not work, seek an evangelist and heed the gospel.

I intend to write more on this subject showing that modern psychiatry is from hell. Also I shall include a case study of how a pair of cultists  sought to destroy a young woman through sectioning. They will be named. This is still being investigated. 12/08/14

Home Grown Heresy?

"My principal method for defeating heresy is by establishing truth. One proposes to fill a bushel with tares; now if I can fill it first with wheat, I shall defy his attempts."

--John Newton, quoted on the Berean Call website

Sadly, this has never worked. The man with the tares (or leaven) simply pushes a fistful into the heart of the bushel.

What is the answer? 1  Timothy 6: 20 Keep that which is committed to thy trust. Guard it.

But wheat and tares are people, and not doctrines, and the wind blows the tares in through the window. Or it creeps in unawares. Shut it! Keep a padlock on your bushel.

If you attend a Gospel Hall you will know that “Kiddie Konversions” leave all doors and windows metaphorically wide open. 

Most tares arrive first in a pushchair..

More Agnosticism from the Unbelievers Magazine (J Ritchie)

Quote: If we could be certain that [I John 5] v.7 was in the original text it would be a wonderful statement of the Trinitarian position. ̶  Jack Hay; Believers Magazine; July 2014; p.203

Paul warned that God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie.                  2 Thess.2:3

Mr Hay swallowed this lie a long time ago. He Judges God to be unfaithful, unable to preserve His word. Mr Hay has no bible he can believe implicitly. His “uncertainty” declares it to be defective. He “uses” the Authorized Bible to supply his bread and butter but mocks it publicly, as do about all of his fellow “chief men among the Brethren.”   The agnostic Mr Hay claims that if he could find the document containing verse seven, he might then believe the Bible. He ignores the overwhelming evidence in favour of the reading in the AV Bible. 

Mr Hay attacks the Received Text in several places in his article. He prefers to follow the perverted text of Westcott and Hort. Themselves were seriously perverted men. Thus we read in his article “love rejoices with the truth. 1 Cor. 13: 6. RV. Exactly how does truth rejoice? The God given reading is Charity rejoices in the truth. 

Perhaps we should read concerning the wise men, that they “saw his star with the east”  

Mr Hay writes that he will not break bread with any unbaptized person. I no longer break bread with those who rubbish my Bible.

Final Quote from Mr Hay: The audacity of refusing to believe a record that God has given is obvious; it is to allege that the God “that cannot lie” (Titus 1.2) is a liar!

“Let God be true, but every man a liar” (Rom 3.4).

God has given us a record in 1 John 5. Mr Hay plainly does not believe it.
