"And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ-to the glory and praise of God.
Now I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel. As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ. Because of my chains, most of the brothers in the Lord have been encouraged to speak the word of God more courageously and fearlessly.
I have been thinking a lot about and plan on writing more about what it means to "defend/contend for the faith". Trying to find the balance between kingdom living and theocracy. The balance between physically waging war and not fighting against flesh and blood. The balance between relevancy and apathy.
So I hope to continue with these thoughts as I have the time. Like I said check out the archives on this blog. There is quite a bit to see and read...
