armor of God

Ben Hoyer - Friday, October 02, 2009

In our Gospel reading for Sunday from John chapter 17 Jesus prays for his followers that will stay on the earth after his ascension. He asks that they be protected from an enemy, he reminds the Father God that it will be hard for them on earth because they are not of this world. They are aliens in a foreign world. The chief attack of our enemy is to convince us that this is our home. That our main goal is to make this life as comfortable as we can, cause it's all we get. That's a lie and you'll need some armor to fend it off. Or service this weekend will try to convince you of that truth.
