SPARTANS, SOLDIERS AND DEFEATING STRONGHOLDS
Monday, September 5th, 2011
If you were accused of being a Christian, would you be found completely guilty?! Watch this clip from the movie 300. It is less than 2 minutes long but the message therein, says a lot about who we are as men and women of God in the middle of the biggest battle of all time.
You have seen the clip. Now, ask yourself, are you a SPARTAN (A Warrior, a Soldier) or do you describe yourself by what you do for a living? The world defines you by your occupation. For instance, you’re an electrician; a receptionist; a teacher; a mom; a cab driver or roofer. You could be a banker; a real estate agent or a youth pastor. This is how almost EVERYONE I know thinks of themselves.
No one I know calls themselves a Soldier, except those of us, in daily combat with the world 24/7/365 trying to steer the ship of Family, Faith and Fellowship through the narrow straits. For most of last week, we took an in-depth look at almost every word of Ephesians 6:12 to recognize what we are up against as Biblical Christians.
