  When someone participates in SFT Awareness training, one of the skills he will learn is how to become an accurate thinker. There are sixteen thinking errors on the list that is covered in this training. The fifteenth thinking error is called Heaven’s Reward Fallacy, which states, “bad things do not happen to good people.” Another way to look at this error is when someone thinks if he can accomplish enough good, then bad things will not happen to him. This is a common lie that distorts the way people see negative events that happen in life. Thankfully, the Bible has answers that can clear up any misconceptions about this error, answers that can give a person peace of mind when facing some of life’s tough issues in regard to this error.Read more
