Dear strst5, We do not, of course, as believers, live by methods. Instead, we live by every Word of God. Ours is a life of relationship, not a life of technique. Relationship cannot be boiled down into steps, methods, keys, or techniques. However, it is easy for the vernacular to be influenced by the world -- and the world is always obsessed with technique. You're right to be concerned about "head knowledge." Christian truth must and should run deeper. See the above verse where Paul uses the Greek word "epignosis" meaning "deep knowledge." I frequently mention my pastor on this forum, who has been wont to say that the Truth makes itself manifest in our head, our hearts, our hands, and our habits. Might I commend you to one of the courses at the following web site: www.settingcaptivesfree.com Any one of those free tutorials will help you bridge the gap between understanding and application. In the mean time, the believers who read this post will join me in prayer for you. In Him, Doc |

2 | Celebrate Recovery | Col 1:9 | strts5 | 192464 | ||
Doc, Thank you for taking the time to respond. When I first read it my instinct was to ask questions as to the first two sentences, "We do not, of course, as believers, live by methods. Instead, we live by every Word of God. Ours is a life of relationship, not a life of technique. Relationship cannot be boiled down into steps, methods, keys, or techniques". This however is obviously my pride. Anyways, thank you I have checked out the website and will do some of the courses. Mike R |
