Transcript Excerpts:
I think we think that the only way to be emotionally wounded is if somebody outright abused you or hurt you or did something to you, but we're also significantly wounded by not having our needs met, especially as kids growing up and that's something that we definitely need to wrestle with in our lives. And then the other thing is the broken equipment. You know, so many of us have broken equipment, but it often gets blamed as this is just my fallen nature, my sinful nature, I was born this way and thank God that he saved me. And eventually when I die and go to heaven, this will be gone. And I think there's really- - Yeah, it's sort of like if somebody were sick - Yeah, it's sort of like if somebody were sick and they go to the doctor's office and all the doctor can do is “okay, well, stay in the waiting room for 70 years, in 70 years, we'll pull you out and send you to the hospital.” that's not what Jesus taught. He said, the kingdom of heaven is among us.
If you're watching the movie and you hit pause, well, then you see the whole movie, right? But you can also see these frames and these frames are scenes. And that's like our life that if we're going through something, we're in a moment well it’s a much larger movie. God is gonna take us through that, He's gonna heal us. You have a future and a hope. There's things we can learn and we grow but we got to do the right things in that scene. We have to co-write that scene, right? to try to get well.
There's a certain section of the Christian world that Thinks you’re gonna heal all emotional wounds and all problems by what I call the truth model and their mantra and their flag is what? you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free, right? How many times have you heard that? So what do they do? They go off from there into a truth model of trying to heal. So I've memorized scripture. I have my position in Christ and I'm doing all this cognitive stuff, okay? That's not what the passage says. What the passage says is if you hold to my teachings, if you really believe this stuff, if you’rE hearers and doers of my teachings, then you shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free. In other words, you're gonna be in a discipleship process of doing all of this stuff that he said and being doers of the word, not just hearers of the word or intellectually memorizing it, but we're gonna actually do it. When he says, confess your faults to one another so that you might be healed, that's not a verse you memorize only, you memorize it, and then you sit down and call your buddy and say, "I'm struggling, I gotta confess this," and not legally confess it, but letting you know about it and then they pray for us. And then it gets healed by doing what the New Testament says. So the truth is not something, the Pharisees believed it, they didn't get healed. It's we got to enter into the process, grace and truth and then what happens over time. And there's this whole thread throughout the maturity process in the New Testament that is process oriented. he is perfecting those that he's already been made perfect. Your position is secure, but now you gotta grow into it, okay? 2 Peter 1, if these traits are present in you and increasing over time, all of these process orientations, you mature somebody in time. So we have to be involved in a process over time. And then the other thing is God does do supernatural things. I mean, I've seen people get healed of stuff. Now, that doesn't mean that they didn't need to do the maturity as well, I've seen people get delivered of stuff, but that doesn't mean they don't need to do the sanctification maturity thing as well.
