Our Offensive Weapon – the Sword of the Spirit
Are we prepared to meet the challenges of our generation with the sword of the spirit? The apostle Paul knew from personal experience the need to resist and stand your ground in the evil day. Whether dealing with rioters or facing incarceration based on false charges, Paul was prepared for spiritual battle. He advised the brethren to put on the armour that God provided. God’s armour would help them meet their daily challenges.
It was daunting at times to live as followers of Christ in a pagan society. They were constantly in conflict with the cultural norms of their time. They understood that there is a spiritual battle to be fought daily. So besides the defensive armour of breastplate, helmet, and shield, God provides our one offensive weapon. Are we making a daily effort to take the sword of the spirit that God is offering us? More
Comments Off on Spiritual Warfare: Master and Disciples with a Mission, Videos, by CGP.
Prepared for Spiritual Battle
Christians are disciples with a mission, and must be equipped with the spiritual “footgear” that will help them fulfill their role. There is a spiritual war being waged and our Master has prepared us to fight our battles. As spiritual warriors, part of being prepared is wearing the footgear, that will give us stability when facing the enemy. So what must we wear? More
Comments Off on Spiritual Warfare — Quench the Fiery Darts, Videos, by CGP.
Spiritual Battle, Deception, and Ethnic Strife
Are you prepared to quench the fiery darts that the Adversary sends your way? When Christ’s disciples asked him about his return and the signs of his coming, he gave a warning. He told them to be careful, so they would not be deceived. They had to walk a straight path in a crooked world. The society would attempt to mislead them, entice them into error, and cause them to deviate from God’s path.
This would become the reality for those who did not know the scriptures or the power of God. And having been deceived, these people would become caught up in the ethnic strife and quarrels of the time. As a result, Christ warned that many people would be offended and betray one another, denouncing even those closest to them. This bleak picture of society would be the direct result of lawlessness and hatred, for the people either never knew, or willfully rejected the ways of God. More
Comments Off on Spiritual Warfare – A Helmet Guards your Mind, Videos, by CGP.
Fighting the Mind Worms
Everyone who believes Christ’s message is engaged in spiritual warfare. Yet, too many Christians are losing the battle by playing old worn-out scripts in their heads. They have developed a negative mindset, and constantly their thoughts replay familiar refrains. And these messages, the “I will nevers” prove to be a stumbling block to spiritual engagement. When the mind worms of “I will never succeed” or “I will never change”, or “I will never measure up” or “I can never leave the past behind” start gnawing at us, do we have a strategy to combat them? Are we able to put on the helmet of salvation and overcome our cultural scripts, negative mindsets, and destructive thoughts? Paul gave us some advice in fighting these spiritual battles. He knew the source of the power to beat back the ugly, discouraging thoughts that sometimes seem to overwhelm us. More
Comments Off on Systemic Carnality or Systemic Racism?, Videos, by CGP.
When the ‘Anti-racists’ Attempt to Rule
Is our western society in the grip of ‘systemic racism,’ or is what we are seeing on the world stage a display of ‘systemic carnality?’ In the name of ‘anti-racist’ ideology, and as a ploy to combat “systemic racism,” many historic monuments have been destroyed or defaced. Statues of industrialists, politicians, explorers, and even abolitionist leaders have faced the same fate … This is a true testimony to the “anti-racists” lack of historical acumen. The protesters are indeed zealous, but they lack wisdom. They have become the judges of things that they really don’t understand. And in doing so, they are condemning themselves. There is great irony in seeing people adopt the very things they are decrying. The anti-racists have become more ‘racist’ than those they accuse. But this is not systemic racism, rather it is the age-old issue of systemic carnality. And God has the answer. More
Comments Off on Social Justice from God’s Perspective, Videos, by CGP.
Justice — God’s Fundamental Nature
When society is in turmoil over the question of ‘justice,’ does anyone care to consider the issue of social justice from God’s perspective? The Psalmist, David, wrote eloquently of God’s nature and his love of justice. As a responsible leader, God’s throne, the symbol of his sovereign power was established on a foundation of justice and righteousness. God was, and is, invested in the rule of law, and its fair and equitable administration. He promises a future where the cause of the just and the oppressed will be upheld. While the wicked and lawless will be trapped by their own evil and destroyed. But is this the social justice that many are demonstrating about in our time? More
Comments Off on Pentecost: The Spirit will Transform the World, Videos, by CGP.
Noah a Man with God’s Spirit
Pentecost envisions a future far different from our present world. Future historians may well look back on our time and describe an age of broken people leading broken lives. And this malady of the human spirit has a long history. Even in the time of Noah, the broken nature of civilization resulted in a situation where people’s imaginations were continually evil. They too, were broken people with broken lives. But in the midst of this society there was one man who walked counter to the culture of his time. There was one who embraced God’s goals and was motivated by God’s spirit to accomplish his will. More
