What's Wrong with Psychology?

I tripe-dog dare you to look up the word "sin" in any psychology dictionary.  Here's a Google search for "psychology dictionary"... Good luck trying to find a definition for the word "sin"...

You WON'T find it!  You see, the concept of sin is not recognized by modern psychology.  How can a psychologist even begin to understand the human nature if the reality of sin is ignored?  They can't.  The Word of God is absolutely essential to understanding the human psyche, for no other Book on the planet addresses the issue of man being a vile sinner.  Psychology is sinful because it attempts to heal men's souls without addressing the issues of sin, repentance, or God.  Psychology is of the Devil.
So what do modern psychologists base their beliefs on, if not the Bible?  To no surprise, much of today's psychology is rooted in the atheistic beliefs of Sigmund Freud (1856-1939)...

Photo to Right: Atheist and Evolutionist, Sigmund Freud
The father of psychoanalysis, Sigmund Freud is best known for his tendency to trace nearly all psychological problems back to sexual issues. Although only parts of his theory of psychosexual development are still accepted by mainstream psychologists, Freud's theory of the Oedipal Complex has become a cultural icon nevertheless. Other now-famous Freudian innovations include the therapy couch, the use of talk therapy to resolve psychological problems, and his theories about the unconscious -- including the role of repression, denial, sublimation, and projection. Initially a Viennese medical doctor, Freud was trained in neurology, and he originally drew inspiration from the work of Charles Darwin which explained behavior in evolutionary terms. But Freud's introduction to hypnotherapy and to the stunning revelations it elicited from mentally ill patients led him to develop a revolutionary theory of the mind and of the dynamics underlying human behavior. While Freud's theories have always been controversial, his work forms a major portion of the foundations of modern psychology, with considerable modification by later theorists.

Freud's work forms a MAJOR PORTION of the foundation of modern psychology.  Sigmund Freud was an avowed atheist, who believed in the evolutionary process of life.  Freud was a devout Christ-rejecter.  Freud is quoted as saying...

"Neither in my private life nor in my writings, have I ever made a secret of being an out and out unbeliever."

As with many psychologists today, Freud, the father of modern psychology, commit suicide in 1939...

He was 83 years old when he asked his doctor to end his life, and died of a physician-assisted morphine overdose in London on September 23, 1939.

 Of course, Sigmund Freud is a big hit today with homosexuals...

"...he accepted the idea that all human beings come into the world as potential bisexuals."

Are you starting to see what is deathly wrong with psychology?  How could modern psychology, that is largely based upon the work of an avowed atheist, even begin to understand the concept of sin?  It cannot!  Sin is completely ignored by the occult, New Age, Wicca, psychology, psychiatry, et cetera. 
 
Sin: The Root Problem of Society
Sin is the true problem in society today.  What is sin?  Sin is the violation of God's Laws.  1st John 3:4... "Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law."  How does modern psychology deal with an alcoholic?  How do they deal with a rebellious wife who is emotionally distraught?  How does modern psychology deal with a homosexual?  Drunkenness, rebellion, and homosexuality are all condemned as SIN in the Bible (1st Corinthians 6:10; 1st Samuel 15:23; Romans 1:24-32).  Modern psychology refuses to recognize drunkenness as sin; but rather, they call it a "chemical dependency."  Homosexuality is a morally reprehensible sin in the Word of God; but modern psychologists call it an "alternative lifestyle."  A rebellious wife may be diagnosed with hormonal imbalance, regressive anger, post-traumatic stress, clinical depression, or even a chemical-imbalance-of-the-brain; BUT no psychologist would dare cut to the chase of the matter--REBELLION IS AS THE SIN OF WITCHCRAFT! (1st Samuel 15:23).
Society is royally messed up today because people REFUSE to repent of sin.  The greatest sin of all is unbelief, for it is the only sin which can keep a person out of Heaven (John 3:36).  There can be no healing of the mind or soul apart from making peace with God (Romans 5:1), and that can only happen through the precious blood of Jesus Christ that washes our sins away (1st John 1:7; 1st Peter 1:18,19).  Do you think your psychologist is going to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with you, and tell you how you can KNOW, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that you can go to Heaven when you die?  No, they surely won't.  They can't, because most are atheists themselves.  All psychologists work closely with psychiatrists, the only difference being that psychiatrists are licensed to prescribe drugs, but psychologists aren't.  Most of the time, you will be prescribed some sort of drug when you seek help from a psychiatrist.  If you go to a psychologist, they will likely refer you to a psychologist.  It's all a big scam if you ask me. 
The ROOT problem of mankind was, is, and always will be his love for sin (John 3:20). 
 
What's Right with Psychology?
Perhaps a better question than the title of this article is... "What's right with psychology?"  Modern psychology is rooted in Humanism and the unproven theory of Evolution.  Sigmund Freud was strongly influenced by Charles Darwin...

"...he originally drew inspiration from the work of Charles Darwin which explained behavior in evolutionary terms."

Although Darwin attended church in the earlier days of his life, and then quit, it is unmistakably clear that he had churchianity without Christianity.  Charles Darwin was a Christ-rejecting, Bible-denier, who stated that he could...

"...hardly see how anyone ought to wish Christianity to be true; for if so the plain language of the text seems to show that the men who do not believe, and this would include my Father, Brother and almost all my best friends, will be everlastingly punished. And this is a damnable doctrine."

From it's roots, modern psychology has it's origins in atheism and the unproven theories of evolution.  Psychology is effectively synonymous with Modernism, worldliness, Humanism, Evolution, and the occult...

"The greatest aspect of holistic health is its recognition of the role played by mind in health. "Mind is omnipotent" said Freud..."

Is that what the Word of God teaches ... that the Mind is Omnipotent?   Freud is wrong!  Does not Jeremiah 17:9 declare... "The heart is deceitful above all things, and desperately wicked: who can know it?"  The only thing "omnipotent" about mankind is our ability and tendency to sin.  We are all stumbling failures apart from the salvation which God offers to us through Jesus Christ.  "Heart" is the Bible refers to man's subconscious mind--and our innermost self is certainly saturated with sinfulness (Romans 3:23).  This is the sin-nature, another term you'll never find in modern psychology.  If there is no God, then there need be no morality, nor absolutes to live by.
There is nothing correct about modern psychology.  Psychology is poisonous from it's roots, which is atheism.  Freud based his beliefs largely upon Darwin's theoretical evolutionary process of man's development.  As a result, Freud's work is flawed, having left out God.  How can a man study the human soul without including the Creator of the soul? (John 1:10).
 
Psychology, Sexual Immorality, and New Age Occultism
Everywhere we go nowadays, we are seeing the yin-yang symbol of the occult (pictured to right).  The symbol itself dates back at least to the fourth century B.C., and has been identified with the Eastern philosophical religions of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism.  In the Western world it has long been adopted into the symbolism of myth, magic, astrology, and witchcraft.  The yin/yang symbol is quite appropriate today for Humanists, New Agers, secular educators, psychologists, witches, Satanists, et cetera.  As Michael Tierra, a proponent of the yin/yang theory, states:

"The Yin/Yang theory is a teaching method and does not define anything absolute.'' There are seven laws concerning the yin/yang, one of which is: "2. Everything changes."

This is an important item to notice.  The idea that "everything changes" does not agree with the Bible.  Hebrews 13:8 tells us that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.  He doesn't change.  James 1:17 also states... "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning."  Malachi 3:6 tells us, "I am the Lord, I CHANGE NOT."  God is immutable, i.e., He cannot change, because He is a Holy (morally perfect) God. 
The New Age Movement looks favourably on homosexuality and immorality.  One particular group that knows the sexual implications of the yin/yang, and intentionally uses it as their official symbol, is The Sex Information and Education Council of the United States (SIECUS).  This group promotes extensive sex education in schools.  SIECUS Position Statements reveal the following:

"It is the position of SIECUS that contraceptive services should be available to all--including minors who should enjoy the same rights of free and independent access to... contraceptive care as do others... It is the position of SIECUS that the use of explicit sexual materials (sometimes referred to as pornography) can serve a variety of important needs in the lives of countless individuals..."

Another group using the yin/yang (knowingly or unknowing) is the Girls Scouts.  On page 66 of the Girl Scout Badges and Signsbook, the yin/yang symbol is used to represent the World in My Community proficiency badge.  In the Junior Girl Scout Handbook, yoga exercises are explained.  The theme for their 1987 program was "The Year of Magic." 
Modern society is absolutely saturated with demonic influences, from occult New Age to Harry Potter's witchcraft.  Psychology is rooted in the same Satanic principles.  Here's a quote from a leading psychology website, psychology.suite.com, from none other than miss New Age herself, Oprah Winfrey...

Oprah Reveals How Energy Flows Where Your Attention Goes

© Laurie Pawlik-Kienlen  |  Feb 9, 2007

Oprah Winfrey shared The Secret & showed how to achieve your goals. Here it is in a nutshell: all you need to know about The Secret book & the Law of Attraction.  The Secret on the Oprah Winfrey Show is all about the Law of Attraction, which is the most powerful law in the universe... According to the Secret on the Oprah show, the law of attraction is the law by which we're creating our lives... Fears, doubts, and worries are often unconscious. Spiritual growth means becoming more aware of who you are. You're consciously and unconsciously sending out orders into the universe, and you'll get what you order... Do something every day towards achieving your dreams – because action is the key, according to the Law of Attraction and The Secret on the Oprah Show!

It appears that Oprah is out-to-lunch in the metaphysical realm, i.e., she's nuts!  No wonder the Bible warns in 1st John 4:1... "Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world."  How do you "try" (i.e., test) a spirit?  You test a spirit the same way you'd test any doctrine, practice, music, etc... with the Word of God.  How does Oprah's teachings measure up in comparison to the Bible?  There's no mention of a "secret law of attraction" in the Bible.  She even calls her heresy, the most powerful law in the universe.  Nonsense!  The Law of God is the most powerful Law in the universe!!!  Oprah is wrong, as usual. 
Oprah Winfrey influences MILLIONS of American women for evil, receiving upwards of 20,000,000 viewers daily.  One of her biggest show appearances is Dr. Phil, a psychologist, who openly supports homosexuality and abortion groups.  Millions of Americans look to "Dr. Phil" for answers to their life's problems, but they ought to be looking to the Word of God instead.
 
Conclusion
"Psychology" to the unsaved psychologist means "the study of the mind and emotions."  However, from a Biblical perspective, psychology means "the study of the soul," which includes the spirit as well.  God created man in His own triune image, i.e., God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.  Likewise, man is composed of a Body, soul, and spirit.  And the soul is comprised of a mind (to think), a heart (to feel), and a will (to decide).  Modern psychology doesn't recognize man's soul (spirit), which is alienated from God because of sin, and is in desperate need of repentance.  There can be no true happiness or peace in one's life, until there is repentance towards God by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ (Acts 16:30,31; 20:21; Romans 5:1; 1st Peter 1:18,19).
