SPIRITUAL WARFARE: Let's Get Ready to Rumble!

The Bible says, more and more, that Jesus came as an example. Do you agree with that? See:

(1 Peter 2:21 KJV)
(21) For hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, that ye should follow his steps:

(1 John 2:06 KJV)
(6) He that saith he abideth in him should likewise walk, even as he walked.

(Ephesians 5:1-2 KJV)
(1) Be ye therefore imitators of God as dear children. (2) and walk in love, as Christ has loved us and gave himself for us, offering and sacrifice to God for a sweet aroma scent

(Philippians 2:5-8 KJV)
(5) Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus: (6) What, in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: (7) But I made no reputation, and it is form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: (8) and can be found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself and became obedient unto death, even death on a cross

(Mark 10:43-45 KJV)
(43) But, so do not be among you, but who will be great among you, let him be your minister: (44) and who will you be first shall be slave of all. (45) is the Son of man came not to be served but to serve and give his life a ransom for many.

(John 13:14-15 KJV)
(14) If I then, your {} Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another's feet. (15) For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.

(John 13:34 KJV)
(34) new commandment I give you: Love one another, as I have loved you, that ye also love one another

.

(1 John 3:16 KJV)
(16) Hereby perceive we the love of God {}, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down their lives for our brothers

.

(Romans 15:5-7 KJV)
(5) May the God of steadfastness and encouragement grant you to likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus: (6) to be of one mind with {and} one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. (7) Welcome one another, as Christ also received us to the glory of God.

(Colossians 3:13 KJV)
(13) dining one another, and forgiving one another, if anyone has a quarrel against any:. Just as Christ forgave you, so that {vi}

(Hebrews 12:2-3 KJV)
(2) Looking to Jesus the author and finisher of {our} faith, who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down on the right hand of the throne of God. (3) For HIM considered to present such a contradiction of sinners against himself, that you are tired and weak in mind.

As we study all these verses, we see something glaringly obvious: We are all to be examples of those who come after us in the faith. Jesus commanded us to go and make disciples. In other words, set an example for those who choose to follow him.

In order for any organization to grow effectively, all methods must remain duplicatable. If Jesus did one thing that the rest of us who choose to follow it can not (involves ascending to the Father), then it would hardly be considered "first fruits" that is. In other words, what Apple seeds that will bear peaches still be considered the seed of an apple? Jesus was the first of many to follow.

where spiritual warfare is concerned, we can learn much from Christ's example that can ultimately free us a lot of agony. First, regardless of what we read or learn (if we were all taught on the subject), we must ask: "What did Jesus do?" In regard to spiritual warfare. This is important because, after all, we are spirit-beings involved un earthly experience. We know that God is Spirit, and that there are evil spirits, as well.

Notice that what Jesus has done ... WDJD not WWJD. He never took the authority over the territorial spirit that gave the right to be there. No, instead, he served with love on an individual basis, one person at a time. He spoke the truth in love. He gave them his time (3 years in case of his disciples). He showed them the path where it previously was none.

We can do it, too! In recent years, Pentecostalism has grown and become a part of almost every other denomination, the Church has suffered many unnecessary victims of spiritual warfare as we went out to do battle with the principalities and powers over the whole area - such as our leaders taught us - never any question , "Did Jesus teach this ?"

the answer is "NO! Not to naučiti.Što resulting in agony and suffering of God's benevolent children across the planet is widespread. The church splits (about 3800 annually n the U.S. alone) to divorce (about half of our Christian marriages) for the disease (the number one request for the prayers of the people in every altar call anywhere), in many cases, our supporters are able to kick the hornet's nest can not cope.

In my own experience as an advocate, illness, divorce, abortion and many other maladies were commonplace - even in my very own life. We invaded Hell with a splash gun ... and were burned beyond recognition.

Surely this can not be the army of the Lord! The church I attended in the 90s he was intimately involved in what I call the "Battle of Caelum Moor" (ask for the article under that name). Although Stonehenge-style sculpture park of 22-pieces, weighing a total of 540 tons, WAS broke as a result of our protests, the destruction of those who fought that battle, in my opinion, completely unnecessary.

God's gifts are without repentance. Our adversary still has all the power and prestige that only he ever got was this down as the earth, and not as heavenly. Jesus referred to him as "prince of this world three times, after 25 references to Satan at all. He roams the earth in search of what he can easily destroy it. For example, any Christian is hidden with Christ, who keeps his head out of his foxhole to hold your tongue, or who chooses to walk out of the certainty of God pokrivaju.Mihael archangel, Lucifer is one of only two biblical peers (others are Gabriel), once told him: "the Lord rebuke you!" We see in the book of Daniel on the occasion where Michael was answering Daniel's prayer after 20-some days after he was arrested in fight with the Prince of Persia. it is, without doubt, a demonic spirit in Lucifer set himself to govern this area. He is still there, by chance, and a region referred to as Persia is now Iraq and Iran.

2 Chronicles 7:14 says - "If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven, and that will forgive their sin and will heal their land ."

", then?" Do you think, Sir, if you pray and seek the face - a relationship with you - and turn from their wicked ways (repentance) ... If we do all that stuff, then you will hear from heaven, forgive our sins and heal our land? In other words, where spiritual warfare is concerned, we have to get right with God as individuals, through Jesus Christ, to share with others the truth every chance we get, and repent of our sins (Greek metanoia means to change our minds). Then God himself will do battle with the demonic principalities that are ruling over the Earth.

Here is a great example: Suppose there is a crack house somewhere in your neighborhood. Every sin imaginable happened within the walls dilapidated. Even local law enforcement can attest to the criminal history of the place. It's been there 100 years and the demons that have taken up residence believe they have every right to be there.

The fact is, they do not! Do Christians gather together and wage war against the prayer of those spirits, invoking the name of the unclean spirits, debauchery, addiction, lust, perversion, pornography, whoredom - even religion, or we take the time to devise a strategy to serve its residents by food , clothing them, praying with them, listen to them, giving them a ride to the doctor to visit them in prison, if they are arrested, etc.? One method is easier, but May result in demonic reaction that will leave your head spinning, and the second, although it can be a thankless, and even hard work can lead one to salvation, even the salvation in Christ and give them example to live by and share with others that they can never forget. One such apartment there in your neighborhood, and although one of its inhabitants at the end he turned to me, a few others yet to talk to me whenever I see them around town as if we were old friends.

lady in Dallas once told me that she was not sure he ever met a Christian. I have heard it said that modern Christianity is the # 1 cause ateizam.Židovski rabbi once said that many Jews want to believe Jesus was the Messiah, but according to His followers do not behave as if he really is Lord. So, they wait for more. They will know we are Christians, our love for each other. They will be what you want to say that we found when they experience God's grace and unconditional love through us.

We do not want to be a spiritual warrior. Ooops. If you are a Christian, you have to fight from the first day you enroll. If you have never received training or are improperly trained, improving training is your only choice.
