What the Bible actually says
Control and Perfectionism refers to an excessive need to control situations, people, or oneself, often driven by a fear of failure or a fear of being imperfect. This can lead to stress, anxiety, and damaged relationships. It is a form of self-reliance and self-righteousness, which contradicts the biblical teaching of reliance on God's sovereignty and grace. (Proverbs 3:5-6, Philippians 3:12)
