When Our Feelings Collide with Reality

1 year ago

There is a fundamental tension between what is theologically accurate and psychologically comfortable. Because the modern person begins with what is emotionally comfortable, they rewrite their theology to fit within their psychological framework. It’s rewriting theology to accommodate their feelings.

There are times when theological precision collides with emotional comfort. Peter ran into this tension when He rebuked the Lord. The theological necessity of Christ dying on the cross did not accommodate Peter’s psychological (emotional) preferences. In Peter’s case, his psychological wants required rewriting sound theology, necessitating a rebuke from Christ.
