Self love - true definition
Self love is taking yourself image from what God thinks about you rather than what you think about you
You don't have to teach you to think great things about you what you need to teach you to do is to stop thinking about you
My soul I forgot I had one
Paul says to think soberly as you should not more highly of yourself but the thing is God thinks of you sometimes you think too low of yourself and he'll bring you up other times you think too high of yourself and Help put you down
The self is not the north star god is the self is a ship that needs to point in that direction
There are not two cells inside of you one self can love the other self
There is one self that thinks about itself in other words the self is simply a topic of fault and that topic needs to be understood and thought about correctly which is the way God thinks about it
The self nurturing its own soul god is supposed to nurture our soul
If you don't think of yourself as God thinks of you what good are you for improving yourself image
Who you trust is shown by the fruit of your time and energy if you're spending all of your time and energy improving yourself thinking about yourself analyzing yourself loving yourself nurturing yourself creating a protective environment for yourself blah blah blah you are trusting in yourself
If you spend your time thinking about God's word and his promises and trusting his promises taking up your cross for him walking in the spirit through him then you were trusting in God
You cannot trust in both God and yourself you cannot serve both God and yourself you cannot live for both God and yourself he died so that we would not live for ourselves but live for him and these people are teaching us to turn away from the very purpose that Jesus died for us oh yes and the very purpose of Jesus died for the world
The idea that love starts with selfishness
The wisdom of man is foolishness to God what does the foolishness of man look like to him
SELF LOVE AND LOVING OTHERS
All right I'm just gonna keep this thing open and talk to it the Bible says that discipline never feels good at the time cell if you never hear anything unpleasant from God you are not his child he disciplined his son and if he reject that discipline it says you are not son it says to be happy about it and they're saying the opposite everything they say is the opposite don't ever let God say something it makes you feel bad about yourself Love yourself not others that's an interesting thing there this whole love yourself thing actually you can't do it without taking love away from others
Loving yourself doesn't help you love others better it makes you love them less
It is definitely putting yourself first they're turning the church also into a therapeutic church they openly say that forget the great commission I mean that is amazingly selfish the world is dying and going to hell and you're sitting in a room moaning about the fact that your mommy said something 50 years ago that hurt your feet
And you know I'm not one to mock that because I've been hurt and I believe in our pain here's the other killer thing you know what you're saying doesn't align with our mission I didn't tell them to stop working on themselves and getting mentally healthy I said hey you can just stop doing porn right now the fact is that's probably good for their mental health to stop doing porn right now they could work on their mental health even even better I'm not trying to tell them you know to not deal with it hurts
And yet it's a threat to say you can be free today wow actions speak louder than words the fruit tells you what's in the tree they're not abiding in divine they're abiding in the bubble
They're not abiding in divine they're abiding in the bubble
The other thing is they say you know there are things that can separate you from the Love of God that your wounds I'm dealt with wounds cell unless you deal with your wounds you're separated from the love of God and you can only deal with your wounds through modern psychology and not just any group it has to be our modern our group
And what they did with me gave me a very clear we they kind of mentality and I'm not gonna use the word in the book but between you and me that is a cult
They say get everybody out of your life that loves you conditionally we love you unconditionally so basically you know we're more important to you than your father and your mother like Jesus said you gotta love me more than your father and mother they're saying without modern psychology you were separated from the love of God
They're saying John Calvin was separated from the love of God John Wesley with separated from the love of God Saint Augustine was separated from the love of God crisis Stone was separated from the love of God am I right
And I comment in my email to them I said because they said you're responsible for your own mental health and that is in the Bible
And I in my last email back I said oh interesting thing you didn't put any citations or versus behind that the fact is the Bible means what it meant to the original writers and readers
Well that's a good way to say it the Bible means what it meant to the original writers and heroes
Back then the concept of mental health did not exist so there's no way the Bible says anything about mental health
But with the other thing I oh yeah yeah the self is a center of everything I say the only universe in which the self belongs at the center is the universe which the self has concocted
As you can tell I think just right now today the fire came back and I'm ready to ready to start writing again I guess I think just talking to that doctor the other day and she said yes I can fix you the hope there is has made me it's like I didn't even know the problem if you got poison in your blood how I didn't get sepsis I don't know
I would say that's the sign of a protection by the hand of God to have you know physically I mean it's like not solid but it's physically you know implanted physically solid in my nose in my whole left side for all that time and not get sepsis I don't I don't know how that happened so it's been a lot going on over the holidays and you know I didn't wanna bother you during all that time good time Church time family time but oh my God I miss communion so bad
Well I think starting Tuesday I could start coming in again at 2 o'clock or yeah hi yeah and so I could get communion when I come in oh that's awesome you know the other thing is it's like I've been hesitant to drive you know I'll take a whole handful of caffeine pills to go down to DC but just to go to the grocery store I'm not gonna do that right and so now I'm on antibiotic so I can I'm fine but I just been ordering canned food off of Amazon and eating out of canned cold because you know I I couldn't go out much so
SELF LOVE EQUALS SELF PERSPECTIVE EQUALS SELF-CENTERDNESS EQUALS MY THOUGHTS AND FEELINSG ARE ALL THAT COUNTS ALL THAT IS REAL ALL THAT MATTERS TO GOD INTO THE UNIVERSE AND EVERY HUMAN BEING I EVER INTERACT WITH
I guarantee is a mistress thought it was sex
Course the white thing it is too when he has it with someone else
Maybe this is where you're not the center of the universe comes in put that right before it
