Bible Question:
Greetings in the name of Jesus! Christians believe that currently there is a war fare going on between God and Satan. Are christians involved in this war and how about non-christians? With love in christ FytRobert |
Bible Answer: This scripture is clearly pointing to the 'source' of the war of good and evil being waged here in the earth...This scripture(in context) also gives us a clear description of how the believer is to be armed as warriors against these demonic warriors, who are waring against the body of Christ. At this point if you are a born again believer (as you have become led to seek this truth) it would be wise to meditate in being armed, exactly what each part of the armour is and how you are to 'be armed'. If you are not, it would be wise to realize you are in the war and on the wrong side. No one is 'neutral'. One is for God and one is against Him. We are not against each other. God bless! |
