What does discernment have to do with
counseling? Everything! Without
discernment, we
will be
deceived. And whenever we are deceived,
our lives and relationships are
increasingly impacted, if not dominated,
by falsehood.
There is no
segment of the church that is more
influenced by “fine-sounding” worldly
wisdom, subtle “tickling of the ears,”
and even barefaced false teaching than
the area of counseling. Hence, the
desperate need for
biblical counsel and
discernment for all
Christians—especially for those who
receive any type of counseling or who
read Christian books on relationships,
love, and how to change. If we are not
actively and continually practicing
discernment, then
we
will be deceived.
This section
of our website is designed to help you
to be aware of false teachings
in the
church, to detect falsehoods,
to know the truth, and to help others do
the same.
