2. The Christian and Psychology

Laws of the Mind Ordained by God.--He who created the mind and ordained its laws, provided for its development in accordance with them.[* NOTE: THERE IS PERFECT HARMONY BETWEEN THE BIBLE AND TRUE SCIENCE. PSYCHOLOGY IS THE SCIENCE AND STUDY OF THE MIND AND HUMAN BEHAVIOR.--COMPILERS.]--Ed 41 (1903).

True Principles of Psychology in Scriptures.--The true principles of psychology are found in the Holy Scriptures. Man knows not his own value. He acts according to his unconverted temperament of character because he does not look unto Jesus, the Author and Finisher of his faith. He who comes to Jesus, he who believes on Him and makes Him his Example, realizes the meaning of the words "To them gave He power to become the sons of God." . . .
