Learning how to handle life’s problems with the right heart attitude is the first step in overcoming them.”

“When people do not really believe in the God of the Bible, they end up making a god out of themselves. They become their own god. They decide, “I’m going to run my world by myself. I am going to make all my decisions. I’m going to run my life.” A person who is that self-centered and self-focused is the kind of person whom Satan will ultimately indwell and empower to be the final world ruler in the end times. This rebellious Antichrist will sit in the temple of God and insist that he be worshipped as God.”

As a result, many people will come to faith in Christ”

“The current plethora of psychotherapeutic approaches can offer temporary relief from emotional pain, but they can never meet the deepest need of the human heart. Therefore, all secular counseling approaches fall short of truly meeting a hurting person at the deepest level of their need for God. Secular approaches cannot meet sacred needs.”

“Buddhism is more about an ethic and philosophy than an actual religion.”

“This secular Antichrist from the former Roman Empire will come to power after the rapture. This means I am not looking for the Antichrist today. I am looking for Jesus Christ. I am not even looking for the undertaker. I am looking for the upper-taker—the Lord, who is coming to call us home to be with Him. But once the rapture occurs, the center of world power will shift, and the old Roman Empire—predominantly represented today by the European Union—will suddenly dominate the Western world.”

“For us the Bible is not merely a combination of ancient documents, historical details, and religious information. It is the living Word of God that still speaks to the minds, hearts, and souls of men and women today. It confronts our sin, exposes our selfishness, examines our motives, challenges our presuppositions, calls us to repentance, asks us to believe its incredible claims, stretches our faith, heals our hurts, blesses our hearts, and soothes our souls.”

“God is more interested in our finding Him in life’s struggles than protecting us from life’s struggles.”

“Ron Nash has suggested that “a worldview deals with at least five major topics: what we believe about God, the universe, knowledge, right and wrong, and the nature of human beings.”5 The lack of unity that characterizes many couples is not surprising when we listen to their differing views on the topics suggested by Nash. Each element in the partners’ worldview should be carefully assessed, then, before marriage counseling begins. The problems couples experience are frequently rooted in a worldview that’s riddled with error and markedly deficient to that advanced by Scripture. People who hold to such errors are awash in a sea of subjectivity and relativism. Unless this deficiency is remedied, all attempts at counseling are like putting a Band-aid on a mortal bullet wound.”

“None of the illustrations, observations, or details that secularists present are necessary for the task of understanding and helping people. We already have all we need – the authoritative, indispensable, perspicuous, sufficient, and superior revelation of God in His Word (Isaiah 8:19-20). Why, then, would any Christian think that we must turn to extrabiblical theories or the practices of men for understanding and promoting change in people?”
