We should be wary lest our ecstatic experiences lead us away from reliance upon the Word. We may begin to trust our "feelings", our "sensual responses", more than the words of Scripture themselves. And if the mental constructs which are built upon these sensations are challenged, we may be tempted to dismiss the very Word itself.
Hi Aron,
I was not in the LC when Lee began to trash the Psalms. From skimming through this thread, that is my perception of what Lee did. Why more people didn't just walk out of the LC when he did this, proves to me people preferred to "amen" him than amen the Word of God.

That said, I do not understand anything about this post. I have read the Psalms several times. I love the Psalms. They draw me so close to the Lord. They are so comforting. Don't they comfort you?

If you don't mind can you explain your comments?
