The notion of an “accountability partner,” is a very far cry from New Testament teaching. “The term is a neologism and has gained relatively wide use since the 1990s. . . It was originally used in connection with weight loss programs in the 1960s" (Wikipedia). It became popular in the 1990s and spread in Christian circles to anti-pornography concerns, where there is even software available for the problem. A Biblical Concept? A Christian practice? Where do we find support for it, Jenny Craig 5:14? Google the term and see what all the term is used for. Then see if you can find anyhting quite like it in the New Testament. Todd
