AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Timothy 6:12 Fight the good fight of the faith [in the conflict with evil]; take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and [for which] you made the good confession [of faith] in the presence of many witnesses. |
Bible Question: What does Paul mean by Fight the good Fight. Stand strong and endure in our Faith or dispute with others on biblical matters. I really need understanding about this. |
Bible Answer: This your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and God 's word. John10:10 says, "the enemy (Satan) came to kill, steal, and destroy, but Jesus came we may have life more abundantely in Him(Christ Jesus)". Putting our faith in Him is a fight daily. We must keep the focus on Christ and the Cross and what has been accomplished at the cross. There are enemies who wish to destroy our faith in God, one of them is this physical world and its tricks. |
