Fighting the right battle

The bible is a two edged sword. (Hebrews 4:12)  So why are Christians using it to fight each other instead of using it for intended purpose to cut down the devil?  The only time we seem to quote scriptures and fight for what we believe is right is when we are fighting with each other trying to prove why we are right in our theology.
Stop playing the game of who is right, who is wrong, who knows more and who is more qualified. IF you are a Christian you are qualified to share the gospel of Christ. Let’s stop using the Bible for Satan’s purposes of side tracking us with our ‘knowledge’ and need for being right or wrong in the church and start using it for the intended purpose of fighting off the evil in this world. Share the truths with people who don’t know them. That was the intended purpose of the Bible. God had it written so we could learn, so we could be close to Him and know His truth and His voice and use His voice to fight off the devil. We are to use his voice to guide our everyday lives.

The Bible IS NOT intended to be used to fight Christians, to prove points, or get into useless battles of right theology and wrong theology. As long as we believe the basics that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and He died for us we are in agreement of the only point that really matters and makes us Christians. We are to be using these truths to fight the real enemy, the devil. If that is the only thing we can agree upon that is O.K. because that is the point of the Bible. We are to let people know Christ, to have a personal relationship with Him. It has nothing to do with starting petty fights, engaging in battles of who memorized more scripture, who has more Bible college or who has the perfect set of moral values based on the Bible.
Preach Jesus crucified for you. Preach Jesus is the savior of the whole world. Preach his love that was given on the Cross for you. JOHN 3:16!

Ephesians 6: 10-13

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand.

Read it again and again if you have to. The point in putting on the Armor of God is to fight not flesh and blood (humans) but the things in the world that you cannot see, the devil and his little army of misfits.

When you study, when you read, yes you are to share what you learned but the easiest way to share isn't by getting in heated theological debates, or standing there shouting that you are a great leader come follow me.  The point is to put what you have learned into practice. The point to reading and studying the Bible is to apply it so you are strong, not to fight humans but to fight evil.

As a Christian you are not to fight or try to convince each other of why you are always theologically right. The people you choose to pick fights with are just the people Satan is using along your path to distract you from actually seeing him.  The people who you meet God has put in your path to give you people to fight with. Most of those people who cross your path are on your side 100% but you’ll never know that because you want them to agree with you 100% before they can ‘fight’ alongside you.

To those of you who want to be leaders, just do the right thing.  If God wants you to be the captain of some army while here on earth there will be people who follow your guidance and the way you live your life.

As Christians we should be joining together, unifying even with our theological differences and preaching truth at the Devil, at Satan, NOT at each other!

You are a warrior in God's army. Don't fight each other anymore, because when we do we are killing our own army. It's time to turn around and fight who we are meant to be fighting! Let's show Satan and his army of clowns exactly how God can bring unity to His own people so that they can no longer stand their ground. So they tremble with the fear of God again. Let's take their wicket little smiles that they get each time there is a fight between Christians and turn that into a freaked out OH NO face where they realize they no longer have control over our lives, that we have caught on to his practices to side track us. Let us fight him! Let us put on the armor of God!

 Pick up that two edged sword and fight knowing that no matter which way we turn that blade he gets hurt over and over and over again!! 


I AM A WARRIOR OF THE LORD'S ARMY!
