⚽ THE BATTLE IS REAL ⚽
Every football match has two teams battling for victory, but there is a far greater conflict taking place every day. The Bible reminds us that we are in a spiritual war.
"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places." Ephesians 6:12
Evil is real. It appears in false religion that denies the saving work of Christ. It is found in false teachers who preach themselves instead of the Gospel. It is seen in a social media culture where pride, self-promotion, and the pursuit of applause can become idols. It destroys lives through drugs, alcohol abuse, gambling, po*******hy, violence, greed, and every temptation that seeks to pull people away from God.
Satan's greatest desire is to blind people to the truth of the Gospel.
"Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour." 1 Peter 5:8
The answer is not fear but faith. God has provided armour for His people:
"Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil." Ephesians 6:11
At Gospel Goal we believe that the greatest victory was won at Calvary, where the Lord Jesus Christ defeated sin and death for all who trust in Him.
"Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us." Romans 8:37
Don't be distracted by the noise of the world or the applause of the crowd. Stand upon God's Word, test every message by the Scriptures, flee from sin, and keep your eyes fixed upon Christ.
The battle is real. But so is the victory that is found in Jesus Christ alone.
