The best defense

 


We are at a war. Invisible but real, we are engaged in spiritual warfare. 

And unless we are prepared, we will be a casualty. 

The best preparation is knowledge, understanding and application of the Word of God. 

Satan is a lion ready to devour the unwary Christian. Kung hindi tayo handa, we will become a casualty.

Maraming weapons si Satan at his disposal. Problema, sakit, pag-uusig, karamdaman, kabiguan atbp. Yes, God can use all of these to increase our faith but Satan use the same to nake us distrust and disbelieve God.

What spells the difference is whether we're grounded on the Word of God or not. 

If we regularly read and apply the Word of God, our faith increases and we grow spiritually. That enables us to recognize and avoid and stand firm against Satan's wiles. 

If we're not grounded on the Word of God, we'll face the problems of life with our own resources and we'll be found wanting. On our own, we're no match against the god of this world. 

Our best defense is the Word of God. Religion cannot protect us against Satan. In fact, religion is the devil's trump card. He used religion to deceive people. He used religion to make people think we're basically good and righteous and don't need Christ for eternal life or the Word of God for spiritual growth. 

Instead of religion, what we need is perception, metabolization and application of the Word of God. It is the sure defense against the deception and plans of Satan.

Have you studied your Bible lately? Are you regularly studying His Word? If not, it is not too late to start today.

Manatiling nakapokus sa biyaya. Huwag ninyong hayaang nakawin ng mga huwad na guro ang inyong karapatang mag-isip ng doktrina.

(Kung gusto ninyo ng karagdagang impormasyon, bisitahin ninyo kami. May pagtitipon kami sa Dahat, kada Linggo, kada 1:00-3:00 pm. Sana manampalataya kayo at kita-kita tayo.

Isang mahalagang paalala: ang mga blogs na ito ay personal kong opinyon at eksposisyon; hindi ito opisyal na pananaw ng Partido Christian Bible Church. Kung nais ninyong malaman ang kanilang opisyal na posisyun, magtanong kayo sa mga matanda ng simbahan. Ang Nieto Bible Page ay isang hiwalay na ministri mula sa PCBC at independiyente rito. Nakikipagtipon ako sa PCBC, pero may personal akong kumbiksiyon sa mga bagay. Bagama't miyembro (muli) ako ng teaching and ruling leadership ng PCBC, anumang mabasa ninyo rito ay hiwalay sa kanila. Anumang nasusulat ay aking pananagutan. 

Kung nakatulong sa inyo ang mga blogs na ito, mangyaring pasubscribe at pashare sa iba. Ibahagi natin at ikalat ang mga Salita ni Cristo at ang libreng biyaya ng Diyos sa lahat ng dakong Filipino ay lenggwahe. Salamat po.)
