Who are you ? - 5
Walk into any Psychologist Offices today
and you will see the place crowded with Christians,
who mostly have unresolved Guilt issues.
Sigmund Freud , the renowned Psycho-analyst,
commented,
" One feels inclined to say that the intention that man should be 'happy'
is not included in the plan of 'Creation'."
We need to understand that Freud made this statement
after counselling many Christians
who were riddled with Guilt.
Are you happy with yourself ?
You will not be able to experience true happiness
if you believe the ,
" I'm just a lowly sinner,
corrupt and depraved by nature,
tainted by sin"
condemnation theology .
Freud came to the conclusion that Christians
were a desperately unhappy lot ,
because they could not resolve the issue of Guilt,
and this applied to both Catholics and Protestants.
However Paul unveiled the Secret remedy in his
Letter to the Romans Ch 16v25,
"According to the revelation of the Mystery,
which was kept Secret since the world began."
Paul is talking about the revelation of a Secret
so special that it was kept hidden since the world began.
V26 " But now is made manifest ,"
So Paul has revealed a Secret in Romans
that he clearly states was not made known previously.
Therefore if we hear Teaching today
along the lines of Old Testament Prophets,
such as the berating of sinners,
it is not the New Revelation of Paul.
The secret is something entirely fresh and new,
which the Old Testament Saints had no knowledge of.
It must be something incredibly powerful
for God to have hidden it since time began.
It could only be revealed after the Death and Resurrection
of Jesus Christ.
In the next Parts of this Series we will unveil this Secret,
and see that it is the Key to our happiness.
