Defend the principles of the Gospel from all attacks (Jude 1:3). #DefendTheFaith

MORNING WATCH NOTES:
I am called to duty, to “defend the faith.” John MacArthur explains this “faith.“ He says, “It’s not describing a subjective act of faith; it’s referring to the content of Christianity, the Gospel, the whole body of doctrine that makes up Gods revelation.” Believers (I) have a duty to defend this “FAITH“ from any false teaching that would minimize its effect or impact.
The U.S. Army motto is, “This We’ll Defend.” What is that? It’s not subjective acts of freedom; it is the content, the whole doctrine of “LIBERTY” and what that means to America, even to the world. The soldier is called upon to defend that liberty from all aggressors.
In the same way, I am called upon to “defend the faith” and all that it means to those who have believed and will believe the Gospel.
Lord, THIS I WILL DEFEND!
As true believers, we don’t take our doctrine lightly. We won’t be robbed of our identity in Christ. We are not wimpy warriors. We must contend, defend, stand strong for Truth and against the many opposing forces, no matter how bad it gets.
