Introduction(From Created In God's Image)

Most high schools and colleges teach students about human behavior as a part of general psychology courses.  Unfortunately, these general psychology courses are usually based on the assumption that man evolved from lower life forms.

 

As Christians, we believe that we were created by God. We believe that He created us for a divine purpose and that each and every person is unique.

 

Sigmund Freud believed that we are born a "blank slate" and that who we are and who we become is a grand summation of our human experiences, i.e., that we are a result of learned behavior. Even though Sigmund Freud's theory has been proven wrong, it is still taught as fact in most high schools and colleges.Drs. Richard and Phyllis Arno, Authors of Created In God's Image, A course in Temperament

 

Believing that humans simply evolved is not only incorrect, it is extremely dangerous. It allows an individual to believe that he or she is not accountable. If we believe that we evolved, then we also believe there is no god, no one to answer to and no eternal accountability for the life we live. Believing that we are simply a product of our experiences also allows us to pass the blame for our actions onto others. We can simply say, "It's my mother's fault," or, "it's society's fault" that I turned out this way.

 

This course teaches accountability for each individual's actions and helps the student understand who God created him or her to be. It teaches how His wonderful plan for you works, and how it can help you to be happy and fulfilled during your life.

Understanding the theory of temperament helps you understand yourself. It allows you to become the best that God has planned for you to be by meeting the needs of your temperament in a Godly manner.

 

Total and complete change for a human being typically requires an act of God. It is important for you to realize that you understand that we do not believe that simply having or applying this knowledge will effect change in an individual. By understanding and acceptance of your uniqueness will enable you to allow God to work in your life and create the changes that will draw you closer to Him. The theory of temperament encourages:

  • understanding of your unique self.
  • surrender of your life to Jesus and acceptance of His plan for your life.
  • a willingness to give up the ungodly ways you may have used to meet your temperament needs.
  • an acceptance of Godly ways to meet the needs of your temperament.
  • a realization that this is an ongoing, one day at a time process.

The theory of temperament teaches that our temperament is placed within us by God while you are still in your mother's womb. This God given temperament remains with you throughout your life You are a spiritual being created by God with a precise order and balance of body, soul, and spirit. Your spirit contains your temperament, and your heart is the binding, blending and balancing agent.

 

The theory continues by teaching that every individual has temperament needs of varying degrees. These temperament needs are met by drawing from the soul or the spirit. Most interpersonal and intrapersonal conflicts are caused by:

  • individuals attempting to meet their temperament needs in ungodly ways
  • temperament needs being met in an unbalanced manner (some needs overdone, while others neglected).
  • consequences of unmet temperament needs.

We pray that you you will be blessed by the knowledge you will gain from this course, that it blesses you, and that it will be a source of information on how to have a happy, fulfilling, God-pleasing life.

Supine In Affection (The Area Of Close Relationships)

 

The area of Affection refers to the need for close, deep, personal relationships.If Tucker Were A Human He would be a Supine.

 

Because of their inability or unwillingness to express their needs, most Supines in Affection fail to get their needs met.   While they appear reserved and cool, the fact is they are truly in need of a lot of close, personal affection, love, and attention.  Since they find it nearly impossible to to actually express themselves, they simply cannot get their needs communicated.  The image of a prisoner bound and gagged is not far from the truth of being a Supine in Affection.

 

However, if a Supine In Affection actually feels safe in a close, personal relationship, they can respond and return expressions of caring.  They can become intensely loyal, producing absolute, complete faithfulness.  No temperament is more prone to this kind of intense loyalty.

  • You may be emotional, crying easily
  • You experience deep affection but find it hard to initiate
  • You want honesty in close relationships
  • You sense you need attention, but find it difficult to talk about
