I thought maybe I would go through some of the spiritual weapons that
we as Christians possess, and liken them to modern weapons of war.
Why? Because it might surprise you just how much we (Christians) have
to work with. And because its going to be fun.
Christian missionaries are
like aircraft carriers. Aircraft carriers move into foreign territory,
and they extend the influence of their home country. As aircraft
carriers carry aircraft, so missionaries carry Bibles. As aircraft
carriers have many trained pilots and staff, so missionaries are trained
by the Holy Spirit.
Christian apologists are
like fighter pilots. And the arguments they use are like fighter
jets. The over 5,000 Greek manuscripts of the New Testament are like a
fleet of F18 Super Hornets. Each fulfilled prophecy is like a F117
Nighthawk. The 24,000 archaeological digs relating to the Bible are
like 24,000 F20 Tigersharks. Internal details are like F22 Raptors.
And external sources are like F35 Lightning IIs.
Testimonies are
like cruise missiles. They cause serious disruption to our enemy.
Some testimonies are like bunker-busters, in that they break through the
hard heart of an unbeliever.
The fruits of the Holy Spirit are like Navy Seals. They will accomplish their mission with precision, and there's no force on earth more elite.
The blood of the martyrs is like a fleet of nuclear submarines. Seemingly out of nowhere comes a game-changer that turns each battle on its head.
The Bible is like a great stockpile of nuclear weapons. Just set it loose. Game over.

About Me
- Brent Heatwole
- Unimpressive in person. But always praying that these letters I write will be weighty and forceful. I serve the Almighty as a servant of Christ. I strive to conquer hearts and minds with the word of God. I am nothing, but the Holy Spirit living inside me is omnipotent. By Him I can run and not grow weary, or walk and not be faint. All glory and honor be to God and to Jesus the Christ.

ReplyDeleteIt takes practice and faith in God. Stay the course, keep your eyes on Christ, keep reading His word, and He will give you the strength to overcome.
