Ephesians 6 and Philppians 1-2, Sunday July 6

Ephesians chapter 6.

In verse 10-20 Paul talks about the various armor for our warfare. Do we really get that we fight spiritual wickedness, rulers of darkness, etc? Do we think that because we are in America we are exempt from fighting the enemy? If not then that means the enemy is out to fight us. The kingdom of darkness fights VERY covertly in America. VERY few christian know they are in a battle and even fewer realize they are loosing. Think about that statement. Then ask your self, am I aware of the battle around me?

There are THREE other parts of the armor of God which are not usually talked about and they are: in verse 18 which reads PRAYING ALWAYS with all prayer and  supplication in the Spirit (what is that mean?), being WATCHFUL to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints. AND the other part of the armor of God (which I have never heard talked about) is in Isaiah 59:17. 10$ Starbucks Card to the first person who lists the two other parts of the armor of God mentioned in Isaiah 59:17 NOT mentioned in Ephesians 6.

Phil 1:9 This is a great prayer to pray for your self... Love with out knowledge and all Discernment destroys. how you ask? You tell me how.

Phil 2:12-14 not these few quotes from this passage and put your self under the microscope here:
"Work out your salvation with fear and trembling",If once we get saved we can never "loose" our salvation, what do we have to be fearful over?
"For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for HIS good will" If God does it why what is our part (hint: We DO have a part)?
"Do all things with out complaining and disputing". Wow, how many things? How many thing DO we complain and dispute about?
