The Battle Part Four: Weapons of Our Warfare - The Word of God
The Battle Part Four: Weapons of Our Warfare - The Word of God
Speaker: Pastor Jon Zondervan
Date: September 21, 2019
The Battle is a series that will explore the spiritual realm, spiritual warfare, angels and demons, and will also examine the signs of the return of Christ found in scripture.
In this sermon, Pastor Jon Zondervan dives into 2 Corinthians 10 and teaches us about the battle going on inside our minds. We learn that the Word of God is our only offensive weapon, and that we need to not just read the Word, but know the Word.
Focus Scripture
2 Corinthians 10:1-6 (NKJV)
“I, Paul, myself entreat you, by the meekness and gentleness of Christ—I who am humble when face to face with you, but bold toward you when I am away!— I beg of you that when I am present I may not have to show boldness with such confidence as I count on showing against some who suspect us of walking according to the flesh. For though we walk in the flesh, we are not waging war according to the flesh. For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds. We destroy arguments and every lofty opinion raised against the knowledge of God, and take every thought captive to obey Christ, being ready to punish every disobedience, when your obedience is complete.”
