10. E. Results of Emotional revolt of the soul. (continued)

11. 4. E.R.S. means the believer is controlled by the Emotional Complex of Sins: fear, worry, anxiety, panic, cowardice, traumatic reactions caused by stress in the soul and Sin Nature control of the soul.

12. a. The “Fear Category” includes: fear, worry, anxiety, panic, consternation, shock, irrationality, hysteria, and dissociation; “reactive emotional sins.”

13. Scriptures include: Mat 6:31-34; 13:22; Luke 12:22-32; John 12:42; 14:27; 20:19; Rom 13:3; Heb 2:15; 13:6; 1 Peter 3:6, 14; 1 John 4:18

14. Principles: 1) The more you surrender to fear, the more things you fear.

15. Principles: 1) The more you surrender to fear, the more things you fear. 2) The extent to which you surrender to fear, you increase the power of fear in your life.

16. 3) The more things that acquire the power of fear in your life, the greater your capacity for fear and the faster you accelerate to becoming a psychotic believer with P.D.s.

17. 4) The greater your capacity for fear, the greater the control of your life by your emotions.

18. This is contrary to God’s Plan. 2 Tim 1:7, “For God has not given us a lifestyle of fear (E.R.S.), but of power and virtue-love and of sound judgment, (common sense).”

19. b. “Anger-Hatred”, includes uncontrollable anger, implacable hatred, bitter resentment, implacable vindictiveness, loathing, …

20. … animosity, tantrums, malice, vilification, violence, and murder.

21. Scriptures include: Prov 10:12, 18; Rom 1:29; Gal 5:20; Eph 4:31; Col 3:8-9; 2 Tim 3:3; Titus 3:3; James 1:19-20; 1 Peter 2:1

22. c. “Egocentric” includes: the interaction of the emotional and arrogant complex of sins; the drive to satisfy one’s vanity and self-image to the exclusion of reality.

23. Scriptures include: Eccl 1 - 2; 12:8; Isa 49:4; Rom 1:30; 1 Cor 13:4; 2 Tim 3:2; James 3:14; 2 Peter 2:18

24. d. “Reaction” category, (stress in the soul plus sin nature domination of the soul) includes: hysteria reaction, irrationality reaction, and dissociation. 2 Peter 2:12; Jude 1:10

25. e. “Guilt” category results from neglect or malfunction of the rebound technique. Prov 21:8; Mat 5:22-24; 1 Cor 11:27-32

26. 5. E.R.S. is the last opportunity of making a turn around without going through a psychotic condition leading to personality disorders.

27. 6. The vacuum created by E.R.S. is filled with three things which destroy your spiritual life:

28. a. The conversion of the outside pressure of adversity into the inside pressure of stress in the soul.

29. b. Perpetual and unchecked Sin Nature control of the soul which combines with reversionism at this point to cause the split soul.

30. c. Christian degeneracy or mental disorders or both.

31. 7. There seems to be a practical E.R.S. “point of no return”, where you will be under Divine discipline until the day you die.
