Is there a point where a person so despondent cannot be saved? Personally, I think some bible study and high praise worship is better than drugs and psycho-babble BS.
...to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes,the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. Isaiah 61:3
Amen! I have no doubt that the reason we are seeing so much depression these past several years is directly related to the filth people are ingesting into their minds and hearts and their lack of worship with the one TRUE God and fellowship with other believers. We are there to encourage and lift each other up! That’s why God says not to forsake the assembling of ourselves. God knows human nature and our need for one another. We need God, but we need people, too.
Here we go again...Yes,bible study and fellowship support helps.
But this is the twentieth century. a clinical depression is a chemical imbalance in the brain...it requires medical help.That’s why God gave us psychiatrists and medicine. Try telling a diabetic or someone with High Blood pressure to pray real hard and it will be cured.
why don’t we just try blood-letting and see how that works?
