I/We agree to join hands
with the New Testament Psychology Institute (NTPI) in supporting
and applying the New Testament psychology - The Natures of
Mankind Psychology. I/We commit to building
healthy relationships with God, spouse, family, church, Christian
community at-large, and non-Christian community by using the
concepts of The Natures of Mankind Psychology. |
|
THE PROBLEM |
|
Christian groups, Christian counselors, and
Christian laypeople are attempting to solve distinctively
Christian psychological problems by using various combinations of the theories and
concepts of secular psychology, the theories and
concepts of the Old Testament (old covenant), and/or the
theories and concepts of the New Testament (new covenant). |
|
|
|
Most Christians are receiving advice and
counsel based on this mixture of secular, pagan, Biblical,
and New Testament theories and concepts. Due to these mixed
and conflicted messages, many Christians are failing, at no
fault of their own, in their attempt to live victorious Christian
lives. |
|
There is a lack of a clear understanding
of what the New Testament teaches about life - solving psychological
problems; enhancing relationships with God; and becoming more
like Christ through personal transformation by the renewing
of the mind. |
|
OUR COMMITTMENT |
|
The New Testament Psychology Institute is
committed to researching and developing the teachings of the
New Testament as they apply to the unique psychological issues
facing Christians. We believe that the Christian community
at-large (the body of Christ) must be at the forefront of
reversing the use of secular, religious, and pagan theories
and concepts and lead the way to using the New Testament as
the basis for solving all the problems Christians face in
life. We are committed to educate, equip, and encourage all
who are concerned about the use of these theories and concepts
as guidelines for Christian living. |
|
OUR GOAL |
|
We seek to publish books and manuals, conduct
training programs and workshops, and provide speakers to train
any and every Christian to use the New Testament as the guide
for victorious Christian living. In turn, these trained Christians
will train others as they use their spiritual gifts within
the body of Christ to minister and to be ministered to by
all the members of the body of Christ. |
|
OUR CHALLENGE |
|
We challenge Christians and New Testament-based
organizations everywhere to join us in reaching this goal. |
|
I/We
agree to help: |
|
1. Promote The
Natures of Mankind Psychology (NMP) among other Christians. |
|
2. Attend a Natures
of Mankind Psychology (NMP) training program. |
|
3. Become proficient
in using The Natures of Mankind Psychology (NMP)
for solving personal, social, marital, financial, and psychological
issues. |
|
4. Assist in the
training of other Christians in the use of The Natures of Mankind
Psychology (NMP) |
|
I/We will pray regularly for The New
Testament Psychology Institute… that God will use this New
Testament psychology to reverse the disappointment, discouragement,
and failure that Christians are experiencing in their attempt
to live a victorious life. |
