Hi Bruno Marchal Personally I have found that reading the Bible a little and knowing some scripture verse, helps. I believe (as did Luther) that the actual words are semi-physical and paste themselves in our memories or subconsciousness and work on us like cognitive therapy:
Hebrews 4:12 "12 For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. " Luther suffered from time with depression, and found words and cognitive therapy very helpful.

Period. Yes. That is even why we should never try to convince some others about God. We can only trust that God will do that, at the best moment. We can teach by example, but not with words, still less with normative moral, I think. Hell is really paved with good intentions. God might be the good, but the Devil is the "good".
