Nuggets from Occult Invasion—The Truth About Self

When Christ said, “Love your neighbor as yourself,” He wasn’t telling us (as Christian psychologists insist) that we need therapy or seminars to teach us to love ourselves. If so, He would have been saying, “Love your neighbor as you inadequately love yourself,” which makes no sense. Christians have always believed (until the advent of psychology) that Christ was correcting our natural obsession with self. He was saying, “Give some of the love and attention and care to your neighbor that you give to yourself!” And we need that exhortation!
