Spiritual Warfare | Ephesians 6:10-18

When the gospel came to Ephesus in the first century AD, a riot broke out. The good news of Jesus upended pagan ways of thinking and living. A similar confrontation awaits us as we encounter Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. This glorious epistle challenges us to ponder the story we're living in, the purpose we're pursuing, and the relationships we're building along the way. In this series, we see how gospel doctrine ignites renewal and love as we get swept up in God’s purpose to unite and fill all things in Jesus Christ.

The Christian life is described in various ways throughout Scripture; one of them being a battle. The Scriptures assume a reality of evil that we can not always see, yet is real and powerful. Yet as Christians, we don't fight for victory but we fight from a place of victory because of the finished work of Jesus and the power of the Spirit. In this teaching, we explore one of the more famous passages on spiritual warfare and evil.
