Re: [FamilyofGod] counsellors
We seek others' counsel all the time. Look at the number of "what should I do" messages in this group alone. There are people give the spiritual gift of wisdom and knowledge for the purposes of giving good counsel to others. Going to people like this isn't neglecting God. Doesn't God speak to us in a variety of ways?

Doing some really deep thinking about my life, and what has caused every problem, I ask:
Because we have a WONDERFUL COUNSELLOR, PRINCE OF PEACE, MIGHTY GOD, EVERLASTING FATHER, why would we go to a human counsellor? Why would we go to the world for "peace" (drugs, security, leadership)?
Why do we trust in each other, and at the same time fear each other? Because, we do not TRUST in the Wonderful Counsellor truly. I'm depressed. I go to a doctor. He drugs me up and tells me lies about why I am depressed. I go to the Word of God, which truthfully describes every blight of the human spirit which causes depression and torture and "mental illness". It is so true, I'm scared out of my mind, but why should I be? Why would I fear truth? The truth will set you free. Your word is truth.
The destruction of my life was lies, and trust in first of all my mother's faith, since she appeared so righteous to me and scared the hell out of me, then trust in my husband which was a big mistake, then trust in the religion and its leaders, who made me doubt my new birth, since it was not kosher to them, then they expelled me finally, after I had gone to doctors to find "peace" in my lonely horrendous grief, then I sought another "leader" and more lies came into me, until I became as Paul described "Silly women, burdened by many sins, thrown around by doctrines". But the TRUTH SETS FREE EVEN THEM, in pure love.
In Revelation, the saved are all together on the glassy sea, praising, JUST AND TRUE YOUR WAYS, SALVATION WE OWE TO OUR GOD AND THE LAMB. Looking up. No need to fear each other, no need to trust each other, no need to be angry because "each other" was not trustworthy.
"True religion is to visit (not "look after" or try to train or employ, or convert) widows and orphans in their tribulation, (for God promises to take care of them, and I have seen that He does, although people will tell them that He does not and scare them into being stupid) and to keep oneself UNSPOTTED from the world." As Paul said, "using the world but not abusing it". Abusing it, is looking for what it cannot provide, peace, salvation, counselling, truth, all of which come from the only, only, only SAVIOUR of all our problems, there is. JESUS THE CHRIST, THE WORD OF GOD, SON OF ALMIGHTY JAH, FATHER SON AND HOLY SPIRIT.
I've been to many counsellors, until I saw that the Word of God was leavened with the proverb "In a multitude of counsellors there is safety" for in the Hebrew it says "in a great counsellor there is safety". I have seen that in a multitude of counsellors, the only safety, is if you want to choose your own salvation. Like buffet restaurants. But if you want true healing, there is only one way to know God, through His Word, living through His work in you that you KNOW Him, until He forms within you golden faith in Him alone. "This is everlasting life, that they KNOW You, the only true God, and the One you sent forth, Jesus Christ."
He has shown me, as a baby in HIs arms, just how tenderly He nurtures through the pain of expelling trust in anyone else, in tendernes and wisdom OUT OF THIS WORLD. "God is calling the earth, from the rising of the sun until its setting". "Come to Me, and I will give you rest for your souls".
I do not write this to be offensive, but because it is true, as not only sharing but a confession, and I have suffered greatly from not wanting to see this truth. So I 'speak the truth in love', and certainly not in self-righteousness, since I am the worst of sinners. Love, Louise GOD IS MY ONLY ROCK.
