We who preach the gospel must not think of ourselves as public relations agents sent to establish good will between Christ and the world. We must not imagine ourselves commissioned to make Christ acceptable to big business, the press, the world of sports or modern education. We are not diplomats but prophets, and our message is not a compromise but an ultimatum. A.W. Tozer
Therefore let God-inspired Scripture decide between us; and on whichever side be found doctrines in harmony with the word of God, in favor of that side will be cast the vote of truth. --Basil of Caesarea
Once you learn to discern, there's no going back. You will begin to spot the lie everywhere it appears.

I thank Christ Jesus our Lord, who has strengthened me, because He considered me faithful, putting me into service. 1 Timothy 1:12

Psychology is the Antithesis of Christianity


Why is psychology taught in seminaries and Bible colleges? Because the modern church has abandoned the Scriptures as the final authority for faith and life. How ironic that even secular critics of psychology are being ignored by seminaries even though “there is a growing band of psychologists and psychiatrists warning the churches that they have bought tainted goods, and urging them to reappropriate a peculiarly Biblical wisdom about mental and spiritual health.”

Rather than heeding the warnings about psychological infiltration, seminary leaders react with defensive hostility. They have not only allowed the camel’s nose to sneak under the tent, but they have welcomed the entire double-humped beast into their dwelling with open arms and a warm kiss.
