Break the Chains – Bible Study with Pastor Larry

Spiritual Warfare is Apart of YOUR Peace

In this study, the focus is on the concept of spiritual warfare as described in the Bible, particularly in Ephesians chapter six. It emphasizes that believers are enlisted in a spiritual battle upon accepting Jesus Christ. The discussion delves into the idea that despite being in a war, the ultimate goal is to bring peace through the gospel.

The teaching highlights that the armor of God mentioned in Ephesians symbolizes bringing peace to others and being a light in a dark world. It also addresses the misconception about turning the other cheek, asserting that it doesn’t mean passive acceptance of evil but rather standing against it.

The study underscores the importance of believers wearing the armor of God to reflect Christ’s peace to others, contrasting this with the world’s state of being at war with God due to disobedience and lack of peace with Him.

It emphasizes the need for surrendering to Jesus Christ, who is referred to as the Prince of Peace, and salvation is described as a surrender of one’s life for the life of Christ.

The study concludes by emphasizing that true peace and reconciliation with God come only through faith in Jesus Christ. It warns against rejecting Christ and emphasizes the necessity of being in Christ for salvation, stating that God’s peace and deliverance come through Him.
