Time and again we come back to the weapons Ruess Tung God, Paul in Ephesians 5 describes: "Put on the armor of God, that ye the wiles the devil can resist. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the powers of this dark world and against the evil spirits in the heavenly realms. So the armor of God so that their day of Blighted stand fast, and done all you can stand the fight. So be steadfast: Gird yourself with truth, justice takes a tank, and shoes as the willingness to fight for the gospel of peace. Above all, reaches for the shield of faith! With it you can extinguish all the flaming missiles of their evil. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. "
and occupy myself again and again the question of the fight. The whole Bible describes a great battle between the good God and evil that is in the world, yes there in the world. I also know that through Jesus we have already won the day away. And always I run back to the question why, if Jesus did come and has already won, we still suffer from the consequences of evil.
Actually, the answer is quite simple. Whether we accept God's victory already in stock or not, stands or falls with our free will. The game is finished and life in abundance is ready for us. We need only access. God's love is so great that he will not force us not to make passive nature, but respects our free will.
Paul understood this. The fight goes on. "We may live in this world fighting, but not with the weapons of this world." (2.Kor.10) Because we fight not just against forces of this world. It is amazing that we understand so hard and so is more cumbersome are the weapons God has given us on hand to use, too.
I love it! Go in and win!
