Présentation de l'éditeur
Theprimary impetus for this book is the denial of so many Christians of thesufficiency of the Bible in helping them with their emotional-mental-spiritualproblems. The book is based on two premises. The first is that the Bible isinspired of God and profitable for teaching, reproof, correction, andinstruction that the man of God may be complete, furnished completely untoevery good work (2 Timothy 3:16-17). The second is that God has granted to usall things that pertain to life and godliness through a knowledgeof His Son (2 Peter 1:3).Itis not a "self-help" book because I do not believe the answer is in us justwaiting to be discovered upon further reflection. The answers are with God.That is why God provides man with His written word.Self-helpbooks tell us what has pragmatically helped some people...sometimes. This bookbegins with the Word of God as the divine standard and strives to move thereader to accept certain basic truths to effectively cope with the problems orchallenges life throws their way. Its solutions work, and from that standpoint,it is pragmatic. Pragmatism is not a good basis for truth, but truth is tested,in part, pragmatically or practically; in other words, by whether it works.
