Thoughts on the Enneagram

Ultimately, the enneagram tells you, at your core, you are perfect and in perfect harmony with others and the “cosmos.” You just need to do the inner work of fixing yourself and you will then restore yourself to your inherent perfect state.

There is nothing Biblical about this. Only by the blood of Jesus and His work on the cross can you be restored and reconciled to God.

“It’s just a personality test.” Fine, then so is astrology. And a ouiji board is just a fun game. And a psychic reading is just helping you prepare for the future.

What does the enneagram give you that you couldn’t get from the Bible and the lists if spiritual gifts, fruits of the spirit and sins of the flesh? Is just the pretty package the enneagram comes in? If you are finding more worth in yourself and others around their enneagram number than their spiritual gifts...maybe a red flag? Like why do Christians need to adopt the enneagram lingo?
