Waging War with Divine Power

The Bible portrays the Christian life as a spiritual battle, with believers as soldiers of Christ engaged in a war against lies and false ideologies. This text highlights the heart of a warrior—a Christ-like meekness with boldness—and outlines the divine weapons of truth, righteousness, and the gospel for destroying arguments and lofty opinions contrary to the knowledge of God. In this fight, we are called to obedience to Christ as the primary battle plan, starting within the church, and motivated not by personal gain but for the glory of God.
