Pastor John Samuel Barnett continues on the message Paul delivered to the Ephesians that we can also use to our benefit. We are called, by Christ, to daily surrender and take up our cross and follow Him. We do that by putting off our old ways and putting on the new. Pastor Barnett explains further today.

If you’ve ever seen the movie “Silkwood” there are several scenes in which a character is found to be contaminated with radioactive material. What happens is that a quick response strike team comes in and gets rid of all the clothes, gets rid of all the possessions, hoses the person down, washes them, scrubs them down until their skin is raw. Then they re-test the person and do it all over again if necessary. Why? Because the radioactive material is so harmful for that person and the possibility of spreading the contamination.

Paul, in God’s Word, inspired believers in the Ephesian church to carry out this type of complete response to their sinful, pagan materials. Pastor John Samuel Barnett provides us with Paul’s message and the reason for that type of response.

During the Pacific campaign of World War II, the Allied forces had a hard road to battle in order to advance militarily. Due to the Japanese country make up and their expanded take over, they controlled many locations that would make bombing the mainland a difficult task. The Allies would have to fight hard and tough terrain to make it to places like Iwo Jima and other small islands in order to deal any significant blow to the Japanese. The Japanese knew that for each island of size where the Allies could launch bombers from would put their homeland in greater jeopardy.

A not dissimilar warning is also presented to believers by Paul in giving the devil landing strips to attack us at our heart. Pastor John Samuel Barnett explains the warning further today.
