God’s resources for our victory

Using the armor of God found in Ephesians 6:10-20 Myron Augsburger challenged the congregation to behave our beliefs. One of the most important things we can do in our society is to maintain integrity. The armor that we put on is to enable us to move out into society. We move out open to meet others, not in self-defense but openness. Our armor keeps us from being influenced by the powers and influences of society. We belong to the kingdom of God, not the kingdoms of this world, so we can reach out across all societal lines while standing firm in God. We are called not to be admirers of Jesus Christ, but to be his disciples, moving out clad in the armor of God.
