The Journal of Biblical Counseling: Volume 11, Number 2, Winter 1993
Overview
For nearly 30 years, the Journal of Biblical Counseling (previously the Journal of Pastoral Practice) of CCEF (the Christian Counseling and Educational Foundation) has provided a forum for biblical counseling’s development and application. The journal’s mission is to develop clear thinking and effective practice in biblical counseling through articles that faithfully bring the God of truth, mercy, and power to the issues faced by ministries of counseling and discipleship.
Top Highlights
“Scripture, which is divine instruction, is so comprehensive that it can totally transform the inner person.” (Page 11)
“Fourth, labels turn our eyes away from the truth and toward a palatable deception” (Page 17)
“First, the label tends to promote the idea of a disease model” (Page 16)
“Psychology may be descriptive but transgresses its boundaries whenever it becomes prescriptive. It can tell us many things about what man does but not about what he should do.” (Page 8)
“It means Scripture is utterly sufficient for conversion, transformation, and restoration, for both spiritual birth and growth to perfection. The statement is made without any equivocation, without any caveats.” (Page 11)
