Felt needs (sense of belonging, feel important, and etc.) does not equal physical needs.

I think it would be clearer to say "felt needs does not equal REAL needs."

thoughts?

"I think it would be clearer to say "felt needs does not equal REAL needs.""

If we are to love Him with our whole person, body, soul, mind and spirit, then felt needs are included.

In some sense I suppose it would.

But the PD and seeker crowd have actually defined the word to mean the items I mentioned and the like.

Regardless, you won't see Christ appealing to the felt needs of unbelievers in Scripture.
