Recent Threads / True Mental Health...

[John Lofton]

True "mental health" is believing God when He says in Psalm?111:10: "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom: a good understanding have all they that do his commandments: his praise endureth for ever." Your gratuituous if-my-net-doesn't-catch-it-it-is-not-a-fish, people-I-disagree-with-are-crazy attitude is one more example of why (literally) I thank God I never went to college.

I am certainly well aware that Christian Reconstructionists are a small minority; however, the line between some of their beliefs and those of some (please note both uses of the word?some) members of the Christian Right may not be particularly?bright (more of a continuum). Sort of like the line between believers who are truly mentally unwell and?believers who are somewhat?unbalanced and believers who just have problems. I would posit that the continuum regarding the mental health of believers is similar to that of the population at large and/or that of nonbelievers.
