Spiritual battle


Spiritual armour

Part 1


God gave us the power to triumph over our enemies. Being a Christian is about gaining the upper hand in this war between good and evil; good being us and evil being the devil and his demons. We don't battle against flesh or bones but against spiritual beings which are the demons. The devil has limit power over the world. The devil has weapons that can try to manipulate us. One of those weapons is our thoughts.

As we know, what we think is what we are. Be on guard always and always be aware about your surroundings. The world is the devils playground and his backyard is the church. Satan is always looking for a weak Christian to devour. He is always at church to see who is next in line. The point of the devil being I church is to make someone fall real hard in sin, so hard, that he will never try to get up, his mind would be already made up. We need to put on the mind of Christ so that the devil and his men-eons wont take hold of our life through our thoughts. We need to be very careful of what we are thinking and very cautious so that we wont fall for the traps of Satan. The devil is losing ground and that is how he is in churches, to make Christians fall before his time is up.


Our thinking should conduct our way of living. I think there is way of having our thoughts be replaced by Christ but I don't know, I don't want to commit a heresy. One solution that I do know, is to thinking about spiritual things; like reading our bibles daily, to witness those whom have not hear the gospel of grace, to pray and seek God's approval.

In conclusion of this, as the Bible says, be of good cheer. We need to always on the look out. Be always on guard. Do not give place the devil, because that gives him more opportunities to devour you whole. The armor for this lesson is the sword which is the Bible, God's word. By reading God's word, your thoughts are being renewed and by renewing your mind, probably renews your perspective that you have on life.

Being a Conservative Christian. (Part 1)

The "C" is for "Conscience." Are you always conscience about God when you live about your life? Do you confide in God about your decisions and pray to Him about it? Do you take time to listen to that little voice that keeps you from sinning against God? The "O" for for "Opportunity" Always look for the opportunity to do the right thing, not so people can you see; doing the right thing means that people get to see God in you. Don't call attention to yourself, call attention to God; to what He can do when we are willing to be used. The "N" is for "Neutral" No Christian should be neutral, your either with or against God. We can't root for everything that we think is good. We shouldn't be dragged to the ideology of humanism. Being neutral and a Christian is a oxymoron. The "S" is for "Self" Our "self" should've when we believed in God, when we accepted his gift of eternal lif...

A must....

What have I done? What have you done? Are we really serving our Lord with all our heart and soul? Are we really in love with our Lord? Has our priority changed? Has our values changed? have our focus in life changed? And if so, who made us changed it? Why can't we just accept God's will and stop making excuses, who are trying to hide from? To whom do our hearts belong to to? I must stop making excuses and start living the life that God wants me to live. We must stop making excuses and start living for God and not for ourselves.

Jesus Last Passover. from Bible Analyser

 By the time of Jesus, the Passover had developed into a set form with a number of added rituals. Although people killed the lamb at the temple, they ate the meal privately with friends and relatives (Luk 22:8-13). Among the additions to the meal was a cup of wine, for which the head of the household offered a prayer of thanks (or blessing; 1Co 10:16), and which he passed around among the participants, both before and after the eating of unleavened bread (Mar 14:22-24; Luk 22:15-20). Singing also became part of the celebration, the participants singing a collection of psalms known as the Hallel (Psa 113-118). They usually sang the first two psalms before eating the lamb, the other psalms after (Mar 14:26). It appears that on the occasion of Jesus' last Passover, he and his disciples ate the meal a day earlier than the official time, and probably without a lamb (Luk 22:15; Joh 13:1). If this was so, the reason was probably that Jesus knew that he himself was now the Passover lamb. O...
