COMMENTS BY DR. MICHAEL LAKE

The Church is becoming too much like the world. The methodologies for coping that the world has to offer fall short of the healing and restoration promised by the Word of God.

True healing and restoration does not come through secular counselling. It comes through true Biblical discipleship. Jesus instructed the Church to “Go, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you…” Matthew 28:19-20 NKJV. He commanded us top disciple and to educate the nations to live the Word. In so doing, we bring a greater depth of healing that the world can ever give.

The Association of Bible Life Educators – International and its Canadian arm are dedicated to promoting true Biblical ministry and restoration through discipleship and Biblical Life Education. Presently, the “counselling” ministry of the Church looks too much like to world. Thus the world feels it has a right to control it. When we return to discipleship and true ministry, not only will we see mighty restoration, but we will also see the world step back and allow us to fulfill our callings!
