Biblical Self

Satan knows something that most of us fail to consider: Human beings are the crown of God's creation. It is this position of honor in all the cosmos that draws Satan's ire. With thoughtful and encouraging insight into our position of value in God's eyes, Charles Kraft explores the overt attacks that destroy our self-image - and the hidden ones, too. In his powerful and fortifying book, he answers these and other questions.

Seeing yourself as God sees you is essential to overcoming your deepest struggles, having healthy relationships, living in freedom, and fulfilling your life purpose. Yet most of us look at ourselves with warped mirrors, believing lies that lead to shame, guilt, fear, insecurity, and spiritual stagnation. The lies of our past keep us stuck, struggling with the same issues and habits for years. But according to the first three chapters of Ephesians, that's not how God sees us at all.

In this groundbreaking book David Powlison undertakes an in-depth exploration of the roots of anger, moral judgment, and righteous response by looking in a surprising place: God's own anger. Powlison reminds us that God gets angry too. He sees things in this world that aren't right and he wants justice too. But God's anger doesn't devolve into manipulation or trying to control others to get his own way. Instead his anger is good and redemptive.

Through personal experience and countless conversations, speaker and Bible teacher Jennie Allen has come to realize that most of us need to unlearn some deeply damaging messages about our emotions.

Your emotions are not something to suppress or ignore. They are meant to be felt, examined, and shared.

We are pure consciousness, which is, I am, in its virgin state---no attachments, and pure, beyond purity. However, because we forget our true nature and believe to be who we are not, we create all the problems that exist in our lives. We choose, and attach to situations, people and things that don’t reflect on our pure nature. We bind ourselves to things, conditions and situations that create havoc and pain in our lives. We even conclude that we are the things we have, have learned, relate to, or believe in. So, we live life in dazes, running around like puppets, when in the actual sense ...

It's time for a return to Radical Holiness. Welcome to the 21st century, where you can now purchase and exchange personalities, depending on mood and circumstance; where you are told that you can be anyone you want to be, and identity is no longer based in a sense of self but rather in the imagery you choose at that moment. The Bible contains a radically different way of understanding our identity. The path that God has chosen for us to discover who we really are is the path of holiness.

Today, we are experiencing a profound spiritual abuse of Western individualism. As a counselor and pastor, many have come to me seeking help for the dilemma of feeling alone in the world of me. Finding yourself in a crowd, you still feel alone. You think no one is listening; no one understands. There is a void, an emptiness, that is trying to be filled but with little success. We are alone, in despair, and lost in a maze of thought rooted in a culture of "me" instead of embedded in a Biblical concept of "us." Throughout the Bible, the "Principle of Us" is seen from the beginning of creation...
