> I believe the Bible is God's Word.
> I belive the Bible teaches that until a man or women is born-again....they are lost, and cannot fellowship with God.

> A christian's worldview is that ALL must come to the Lord on His terms...as given to us in the Bible. In other words...God really only "see's" 2 types of people on Earth.
> Saved born-again followers of Him compromise one group....and then those who have not yet found Him as their Lord & Savior compromise the other.
> I could certainly list many passages from the Bible that clearly bear out this basic fundamental christian belief.

> Therefore......back to the Counselor/Counselee

> Jesus saith unto him, I am the way , the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

> John 3:7
> Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again
>
> John 3:16
> For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

> That is why I state the difference between a "christian" counselor..and an unbelieveing counselor.
