Dr. Crabb shares that the biblical goal of counseling goals should be to help people move over to the path of righteousness (Crabb, 28); and help them move up in their maturity to be like Christ (Crabb, 29). “Moving over” deals with any immediate problems; and “moving up” is about developing character (attitudes, beliefs, purposes) that conforms to Christ (Crabb, 31).

Wright also, narrates confrontation to articulating empathy for an individual in assisting them to make healthier choices.
Crabb’s concepts of the self-seeking behavior and the biblical behavior coming from one’s own will and how it affects compassion was what caught my eye and stuck with me.

The review of the book, “Knowing Jesus”; I will show how the author, Christopher J. H. Wright explains how understanding Jesus, one must understand the Old Testament and it’s narratives that paint a picture of the one who prophets elude to as the one who will fulfill the law, by delivering Israel. In doing so, using Israel as the prototype of God’s mission to provide salvation to them and to all nations. Prophetical narratives that paint pictures of one, who is destined to be the savior of God’s chosen people, Israel, and all mankind.

Genesis 1:1-2 “In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth”. These are the opening words of the bible, to believe that God is the creator of the universe is to see everything very different from those without such faith, belief in God’s creation brings with it a way of looking at reality that centers on relationship that sees life in the light of human dependence on God. According to SDA Bible Commentary written by E.G White commenting on this verse it says; “the verb to create describes an activity of God, never of men, God creates”. She continues saying; “the first words of the bible point to the fact that the creation bears the imprint of God’s own activity”. This clearly shows that God is the one who created
