I recently spoke with a couple of friends who believe that mental illnesses are a result of sin-meaning they believe that if people had true faith they would not have mental illnesses. They gave the example of how one of them used to have anxiety, but now that they are christians they don't have anxiety anymore. When we talked about OCD,for instance, one of them said "Here is the google definition of OCD, Obsessive-compulsive disorder is characterized by unreasonable thoughts and fears (obsessions) that lead to compulsive behaviors. [However] the Bible says to only fear God, so if someone truly trusted God this disorder wouldn't happen [as there is] no need to fear anything." I don't agree with this. My question is, can you argue against homosexuality and how God can bring peace and triumph from this and still not agree with nouthetic counseling? I believe you don't have to hold to their line of thought and still believe that God can free people from homosexuality. What are your thoughts? Is that consistent?
