Moody RadioWe are living in unprecedented times when Christian leaders are renouncing their faith and large numbers of believers are falling away. Is this the final apostasy prophesied by Jesus and Paul? And can we do anything to help those struggling with their faith? Today, our guest will confront the problem of "Christian deconstruction" with solid, faith-building answers and honest responses to difficult questions. What does the Bible say about an end-time falling away and whether that is what we are seeing in our day; How has solidarity and sympathy for the LGBT movement brought a rejection of biblical values; How do we handle the contemporary objections to the Bible’s moral standards; Join us for a crucial and timely conversation.
The Bible is clear that we face three different types of opposition while attempting to successfully navigate life as Ambassadors for Christ. Our opposition is identified in Scripture as "the world" (1 John 2:15-17), "the flesh" (Romans 7:15-25), and "the devil" (1 Peter 5:8-9). The sad reality is that too many Christians lose more battles than they win and endure their walk with God rather than enjoy it because they often don't recognize how opposition through spiritual warfare actually works. More importantly, they have no idea how to effectively and efficiently respond to these attacks. Scripture nowhere indicates that a wish, a hope, a cliché, or a sincere guess represent adequate responses to attacks from these three very real enemies. Christians must be strategic in their responses to these clearly defined enemies, learning how to fight biblically rather than just sincerely. Today you will learn how to do just that! Join us with your questions on spiritual warfare.
