Catch what was said in the sermon?

August 23, 2015
We’re satisfied with deadbolts.
And we in the church today live in the shadow of Constantine.
These early Christians were avowed pacifists.
Then Paul launches into discussions about submissive behavior.
Paul sees a completely spiritual struggle.
It was not “spiritual is good” and “worldly is evil.”
Let’s start at the beginning of this instructional lament.
Shouldn’t God be the active defender of his people.
Not only is this affecting the society of God’s people negatively, God’s people come to disbelieve.
The psalmist can hardly recognize himself.
Worldly things, worldly powers, worldly injustices must be met with spiritual resilience (2).
The full armor of God is the true faith (2), active and practiced by the follower of Jesus.
