Spiritual Warfare


Here is a quote from John MacArthur's - The Jesus You Can't Ignore.
"The core truths of Scripture are always under attack. Scripture itself clearly teaches that the main battleground where Satan wages his cosmic struggle against God is ideological. In other words, the spiritual warfare every Christian is engaged in is first of all a conflict between truth and error, not merely a competition between good and wicked deeds. The chief aim of Satan's strategy is to confuse, deny, and corrupt the truth with as much fallacy as possible, and that means the battle for truth is very serious. Being able to distinguish between sound doctrine and error should be one of the highest priorities for every Christian - as should defending the truth against false teaching."
I have really been enjoying our study in Sunday School on the Gospel. How is the Gospel presented in scripture? How does the Gospel presentation in scripture compare against most of the Gospel presentations today?

David,

It is the age old attack that Satan has used since the very beginning: "Hath God said?"
