2 | Is Depression of the devil? | Matt 9:12 | stjones | 20200 | ||
Greetings; Depression is an illness, sometimes purely psychological, sometiems physical, sometimes both. I would have faith in God while remembering that God might heal through a doctor. Whatever you do, don't be like Job's friends and assume that an affliction is evidence of insufficient faith. Paul's great faith didn't deliver him from the thorn in his side. You didn't specifically ask about demon posession, but you may be interested in an article in Christianity Today entitled "Obsession or Posession?" I think it was the August issue; it is also available online at http://www.christianitytoday.com/ct/2001/011/1.46.html. I found it balanced between skepticism and faith; you may find it helpful. I hope this is some help. Peach and grace, Steve |
