First Love Ep. 71 - From Schema to Rhema: Can It Be Tested, Who Is In Control

Show Notes: In this episode, Dr. Robyn Kassas and Dr. Nathan Kassas continue identifying markers that separate a rhema from a schema, beginning with the control marker: does this require manipulation, deception, or pressure to make it happen? They discuss how a trigger activates a schema, how Saul dressed up disobedience in spiritual language, and how James 3:17 describes wisdom as willing to yield. They share the practice of inviting Jesus into their own self-talk, and connect it to Adam and Eve's imagination being opened. Next comes the testing marker: what God blesses, He tests. Citing 1 John 4:1, Proverbs, and Peter's vision at Simon the Tanner's house, they explain why a multitude of counselors matters and why no one has every gift, since a schema claims to have every answer while a rhema is willing to yield.
