Nuggets from "An Urgent Call to a Serious Faith" by Dave Hunt - The Sufficiency of Christ

The Bible has rightly been called “the Manufacturer’s handbook.” God our Maker (see Psalm:95:6O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.
See All...; Proverbs:22:2The rich and poor meet together: the LORD is the maker of them all.
See All...; Isaiah:17:7At that day shall a man look to his Maker, and his eyes shall have respect to the Holy One of Israel.
See All...) intended for the creatures He made that they should continually consult that handbook in faith. Surely our Maker included in His operating manual every instruction needed for His creatures to function holily (Leviticus:11:44-45 [44] For I am the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I am holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. [45] For I am the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I am holy.
See All...; 19:2; 1 Thessalonians:2:10Ye are witnesses, and God also, how holily and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:
See All...), happily (Psalm 146:5; Proverbs:3:13Happy is the man that findeth wisdom, and the man that getteth understanding.
See All..., 18; 16:20; John:13:17If ye know these things, happy are ye if ye do them.
See All...), and fruitfully (Genesis:1:28And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.
See All...; John:15:4Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.
See All...,8; Colossians:1:10That ye might walk worthy of the Lord unto all pleasing, being fruitful in every good work, and increasing in the knowledge of God;
See All...). Surely God has not overlooked any possible problem or malfunction that might befall us nor failed to provide complete instructions and all appropriate remedies.

Suppose the descendants of Adam become angry, frustrated, fearful, anxious, insecure, lonely; or supposed they feel misused and abused or useless and lacking in purpose or meaning. Let them turn for counsel and help to their Maker, who knows everything about them, and to the Manufacturer’s handbook in which He has provided complete operating instructions. As David said, “What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee” (Psalm:56:3What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.
See All...). Let them turn to Christ, who indwells and empowers and whose very name is Counselor (Isaiah:9:6For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
See All...). What further counsel or help could they need?

Indeed, until very recently the people of God looked to Him alone for their spiritual and emotional needs – and triumphed by faith. Consider the suffering Job endured without any counseling or therapy from a Christian psychologist. If he didn’t need it, then surely those who suffer far less don’t need this newly invented help today. Job’s trials and the remedy he found through trust in God and submission to His will teach us that trials must be endured for our own good, to refine and mature us; and that God himself will be with us and is all we need to carry us through.
