0069. The Believer Is a Soldier

The Believer Is a Soldier

"Thou therefore endure hardness as a good soldier of Jesus Christ" (2Ti_2:4).

1. Read 2Co_6:3-10 and 2Co_11:23-27 and note some of the things Paul himself endured as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.

2. Read Eph_6:13-17 and speak of the armor that is given to panoply Christian soldiers for their fight against Satan and his hosts.

3. Read Php_1:29 and tell how all of us are called upon to suffer for Christ: that is to endure hardness as good soldiers.

4. Read Rom_8:18 and show how the glory, when the battle and its sufferings are past, will by far outweigh the anguish of the conflict.
