Hello Everyone,

We have a dangerous enemy – “principalities…powers…rulers of the darkenss…spiritual hosts”

There is a spiritual realm that is REAL, ORGANIZED, and MORE POWERFUL than you! So, IF you don’t have a POWER source that wraps you in His care (Christ!), then you are left to the whims of a very real & wicked force that would like nothing more than to steal, kill, and destroy you!

John 10:10 The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

Understand we are in a dangerous battle

How serious is the battle? Notice one more word in Ephesians 6:12 “For we do not wrestle…”

The word “wrestle” is the Greek word “pale” (pronounced: PAH-Lay) and it was the term for the events that involved gladiators who, when they had pinned their opponents to the ground, would look up at the host of the games – usually Caesar – who would signal with his hand for the order to kill his weaker opponent. THIS TYPE OF Life/Death gladiator match was described as “PAH-Lay” – a ‘death’ match!

So, if you want to imagine a world where Jesus had never been born, then you must dream of a world that is incredibly hostile toward your emotions, your physical safety, etc… It would be a battle for your mind, your heart, your will.

The sad thing is that not many people know that they are living their lives right now as if Jesus had never been born AND they don’t realize how vulnerable they really are.

Oh How HE Loves Us!

Pastor Phil
