Apostle Paul's Bold Confidence!

‘Apostle Paul’s Bold Confidence.’
1 Corinthians 15:30-32.
Because of Apostle Paul’s firm and convinced conviction of the Resurrection of Christ and the True Believers he was not afraid of death.
a) 1 Corinthians 15:30-31Apostle Paul wax continually risking his life for the sake of the Gospel. He was facing the possibility of death frequently.
b) 1 Corinthians 15:32. Apostle Paul faced a very real battle with the people of Ephesus. That is why he wrote about spiritual weapons and armour to them.
c) 1 Corinthians 15:32. All this struggle would be to no avail, a useless pursuit, if there was no resurrection.
d) 1 Corinthians 15:32. Belief in the Resurrection surely keeps us away from a secular mind and lifestyle.
(Through this QT I am very encouraged by Apostle Paul’s Bold Confidence)

‘We Need To Stand.’
Ephesians 6:14.
a) We need to stand on our ground, not on another person’s. It means that we need to know our boundaries.
b) We need to put on the sturdy belt of Truth.
c) We need to wear the breastplate of Righteousness.
(This Second one clearly reminds me that I Need To Stand)

We need to be very careful when we talk about “spiritual warfare”. The only time that Apostle Paul wrote about this subject in his letters were those written to Ephesus and Corinth. In both of these cities the Church was experiencing extreme persecution. Paul encouraged them to stand fast in the battles that they were facing. Today amongst Church people there is too much glib talk about “spiritual warfare”.
