The first one was from a Disciple class. The note said that the first half of Ephesians (1-3) tells us what God has done. The second half (4-6) tells us what we must do. And the two sections are connected by the "bridge" word "therefore". The second note was from a sermon Wallace preached in 2006. It referred to the "armor of God" part of the reading. It says that none of the armor mentioned (breastplate, shield, belt) protects our backs. So we should not turn our backs on Satan because we have no protection there! Christians should face Satan and fight against his dark powers. This section tells us that we can defeat him with truth, peace, faith, salvation and the Spirit and Word of God. I am thankful that God has given me what I need to fight...and WIN!Carol Floreshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05371996673049353163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6926245050623680380.post-48651421700765581162011-08-06T14:13:53.497-04:002011-08-06T14:13:53.497-04:00I also liked 4:29 "Do not let unwholesome tal...I also liked 4:29 "Do not let unwholesome talk come out of your mouth, but only what is helpful for building up others according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen." I don't do the unwholesome talk so much as just too much talking. I need to work on keeping my talk to what will benefit those who are listening. <br />And then after the Armor of God- Stay alert and always keep on praying!Marynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6926245050623680380.post-46888293565677784452011-08-06T13:52:49.862-04:002011-08-06T13:52:49.862-04:00"Sword of the Spirit in our hands and the wor..."Sword of the Spirit in our hands and the word of God in our mouths . . ." :)Martha Jane Orlandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11620499267401065780noreply@blogger.com
