When dealing with the fears that someone is dealing with, the counselor would be wise to examine the sins that are present in that person's heart, but he should also point them to what Dan Doriani calls "the happy fear of the Lord." 3.

Finally, a member of the panel of experts, who is a little hesitant to embrace biblical counseling, suggested that a whole thing. This goal was achieved when the deacons of Towaliga Baptist Church thoroughly examined both the delivery and content of the sermons for accuracy, clarity and biblical relevance and produced an exemplary result. Because of Towaliga's desire to embrace the Word, this aspect of the project was not a difficult endeavor.
James White writes: “Scripture is entirely unique in its nature as God-breathed revelation (nothing else is God-breathed); it is unparalleled and absolute in its authority; and it is the only infallible rule of faith for the church.”2 The members of Towaliga Baptist Church model White's assessment in faith and practice.
