  • www.truthforli... || By: Alistair Begg - (Ephesians 6:10-20) Jesus secured salvation for all believers when He defeated Satan at the cross. Until Christ returns, however, spiritual warfare rages on in this world and should not be easily dismissed. In His mercy, God has provided the armor by which we can withstand such fierce opposition. In this overview of God’s protective provision, Alistair Begg exhorts us to resist Satan’s accusations, look outside ourselves to Christ, and recall the truth that in Christ, we already have the victory.

    I love this sermon. It was one of the first I ever heard Alistair preach and it has changed my life profoundly. I was a dedicated Mormon for 30 years, was a leader and a teacher in it. I began listening to Alistair each morning and sermon by sermon, day by day his words opened my heart and life to the true Christ. I have since officially resigned from Mormonism and am happier than I have ever been. God bless you Alistair and thank you for being an instrument in God's hands!

    O my God! You alone know just how urgent this reminder is „today“ to STAND against the schemes of the devil. For a while I was naive to think that at my advanced age (79), the pressures would ease. The difference however lies in the „subtleties“ with which the evil one operates. I can read, study, and listen to the Word of God much of day, and still the devil finds an inroad to attack, if I don‘t STAND FULLY ARMED, i.e. fully conscious of my constant need of God‘s only counsel, strength, courage and arms. I need to listen to and ponder over „this“ message until it becomes that permanent reminder, especially when memory weakens with old age! THANK GOD for Alistair, an ambassador for the gospel of Jesus Christ!🙏♥️

    No one explains scripture with more wisdom, gentleness and accuracy than this blessed man of God. Alistair will give examples, take the verses apart and no one who listens will leave the teaching confused. An important part of any speaker is .... the sound of his voice! there are other teachers who are very good, but Alistair's voice , I can listen to all day. Oh, I am glad he addressed those sudden 'where did that come from' thought! This happens to me and I know it wasn't my thought, so , fiery dart out of nowhere, and it stings! Game on , evil one, Jesus in me will cast you out every time. Does he give up? No, he hates us Christians. Stand!

    Praise to God for His Truth. My military friends who have been active soldiers in battle tell me, “ ‘intelligence’ about my enemy is highly valued before our team attacks ; the weapons the enemy presently holds, plus the enemy’s fighting methods, and the enemy’s field strengths/weaknesses.” Knowing Satan’s fighting methods, his weapons, and how God equips me to defend my heart/mind, calling upon the Holy Spirit to fortify my mind with scripture, claiming aloud “my God will be my strength and supply me power, counsel, and courage to win this fight!”

    He said maggots would be it's covering, the spirit calls people down here maggots and parasites, when this spirit is, at the end when humans are fine all that will be left is maggots for it to hide behind; no longer people. We are all made up of a God that didn't want to exist, and all that's left is the devil stock with it's miserable self, unfortunately we weren't made into Saturn we were an old made into a planet where life would randomly give consciousness to formerly sleeping particles, we judge or are judged with the devil, every stone will be overturned in every universe for 50B gods that were burned and got out of hell, this devil is here too finish it's row before it is damned with every former seed of it, in whom it finds a spider's web to do its will, it is sinister but mimicks good, so it deceives and it's own former kin fulfill it's will.
    Every frozen planet will be reunited to spirit and separated, even the rocks works testify against it when 50 Billion GODS are too damned smart for it, hell with everyone who deserves to burn
    No mercy,
    No forgiveness
    Hell is just
    You're getting your eternity even if you don't remember what you did, your life is proving it
    The spirit we exist in is an abortion, only death will set you free, it's going to Hell forever, it can never repay enough, it will get out of hell when it is innocent, damn it hell and all of it's spirit
    We are not just of this universe's devil but exist in it's bad spirit down here while it expresses itself through people and tries to use them
    This devil said he/she betrayed every GOD it met, burned down their heaven so it could be the only God, it was the devil and jealous and called itself God and Christ and is going to be damned by every universe after it gives that it Orlando every betrayal and required it's own heaven and said it would do it to "2 or 3 more universes but then after that..." It's going to Hell forever, don't go with it
    We are not just of this universe's devil but exist in it's bad spirit down here while it expresses itself through people and tries to use them
    Legalize and make available a peaceful opioid euthanasia and 45-65 percent of the plant would say thanks and be out of here, this world sucks and a lot of people would go, people are keeping them stuck here and making vrsuses to murder half of everyone randomly, I could have done Agnd2One better
