So enjoy these as we culminate in the remembrance of our Lord and our God’s sacrifice and resurrection to save us from our sins.

When we step out into the sun we don’t actively take in its heat and rays and light. When we wade out into a lake we don’t actively take on the water and get wet. Our body involuntary is designed to breathe and digest and do a thousand other things.

When we come to saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, we see how much our God and Savior sovereignly and actively chooses to do for His glory. And being made in the image of God, in our faith we actively are called to take up our armor and shield and sword. Today, Pastor John Samuel Barnett shows us what we can actively do with the armor of God when faced with trials and temptations and attacks.

Because Christ has won victory over sin and death, we could be tempted to treat the flaming arrows of Satan as benign objects that aren’t worth caring about. When we do this, one would say against clear evidence of it not being the case, we can fall into self-reliance and trust ourselves in hubris. Pastor John Samuel Barnett warns us about the dangers of the weapons’ of the enemy but also that our sound trust is to be placed in being of God and His work.

As Christians, we still live in a fallen world and face temptations and bad habits from our old life. We are told to take up our cross DAILY and follow Christ. In that following we come under attack.

Pastor John Samuel Barnett provides guidance from the Lord’s Word on what to do.https://youtu.be/jNPSP8T_fUA(From 2016JUL24 – SWS-25 – The Simple-Faith Shield that Works Each Time We Use It)

This week, we saw how important it is for believers to not seclude themselves in a vacuum whose seal is broken only on Sundays. We are constantly to seek other believers out and check them out and check in with them. This is how we help ourselves and others grow in the faith God has given us. So for this week’s Q&A, Pastor John Samuel Barnett gives us the context for when we should confess our sins to one another in the church.
