I have studied the Bible and psychology (to a lesser degree) for over 30 yrs. I have read psychological stuff that, IMO, bordered on New Age philosophies.
I have found that basic psychology has a place in the body of Christ as it relates to understanding personality types, marriage counselling etc. I have not found any descrepencies between biblical principles and basic human psychology. I do not think that Freud and Jung are the definitive people to follow either.
I disagree with myth 2 & 3 and believe that they are true, due to my own personal experiences as a Sr. Pastor for over 20yrs. I do not rely on psychology to help solve people's problem, but it has proved a helpful tool in understanding people's perspectives.
