Biblical Counseling was practiced in the Bible and is unique to counseling because it seeks to counsel man solely from the Bible. Jesus was the Wonderful Counselor and what better techniques and teachings to use than that of the Master Himself. His techniques and teachings proved victorious because of the assurance that His words were profitable not only for doctrine, correction and reproof; but for instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16).
God’s people have always counseled with the words that are laid out in the Scriptures.
