There are different reasons that life help approaches don’t work well, if they work at all, but one reason may be this: they are attempting to solve the wrong problem. Most every life help approach accepts problems as being something that happens within the world, something that happens in the physical realm. Money problems happen within the world, health problems happen within the world, relationship problems happen within the world, whatever the problem is we know where to find it — in the world. But are problems actually there, are problems actually found in the world? Spiritual life help says that problems are not found in the world, that they cannot be found in the world because the world is heaven. This would come across as almost nonsensical to most people but it does make sense if we accept a perspective:

God is the only power.

If we accept God as the only power then the world must be heaven. Of course this sounds outrageous, the world seems more, far more, like hell than heaven…
