Christians must live as ambassadors of Christ, always ready to give a reason for their hope — not by altering the gospel or forcing conversations, but by living in a way that displays Christ’s holiness and hope to others.

Jon Moffitt concludes our six-part series on biblical interpretation by teaching us to read Scripture with "cosmic eyes" - understanding the spiritual warfare that underlies all of human history. Scripture reveals we are born into an ongoing war between God's kingdom and Satan's domain of darkness, where fallen spiritual beings work through deception, false teaching, and division to destroy believers. However, Christ has already won this war through His death and resurrection, disarming these spiritual powers. We don't fight for victory - we fight from victory, standing firm in gospel truth rather than our own strength. This cosmic perspective transforms how we view trials, opposition, and our calling as Christians in a world where spiritual warfare is very real.

Key Verses: Ephesians 6:12, Deuteronomy 32:8-9, Revelation 12:7-17, Colossians 2:15

Humanity's fallen state is due to sin, and we emphasize that the Bible is God’s story of creation, fall, redemption, and restoration, with Jesus at its center. Scripture reveals our brokenness and God’s plan to restore us through Christ, providing purpose and hope despite life’s imperfections. We continue our series on studying scripture, focusing on the concept of continuity—how the Bible’s narrative connects from beginning to end, guarding against misinterpretation, revealing God’s purpose, and linking the physical and spiritual realms. By understanding our place in this divine story, we find meaning, resist Satan’s lies, and live with purpose, knowing God loves us and includes us in His eternal narrative.
