We need to be careful of the context of truths we hear about anything, especially sin (Jn 8; Rom 3:9-20; 1 Jn 1:8). As long as Jesus is the Son of God, there is good news, and it is always about Him!

God never gives commands to sinners, as if them having moral laws could redeem them. Christ sent His Son as our redemption (Eph 1:7). His redemption goes beyond our souls and reaches our relationships. His commands come to us to express and reflect our redemption in our relationships (Eph 4-6).

God's command to put on the armor He offers is not a collection of our human effort. It is a call to understand, focus on, and depend upon what He has done for us in Christ, our Lord (Eph 6:10; Isa 59:17).

Delight yourself in the Lord. He is faithful. He will be your stronghold in time of trouble (Ps 37; Eph 6:10).

It takes faith to live in this world; everyone has faith in something or someone! The question is: Where do you choose to put your faith?

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power (Eph 6:10).

In these last days, God has spoken to us in His Son. Ephesians is filled with God's message in His Son (Heb 1:2; Eph 1-3, 4-6).

God's purpose is to save and transform us by His love.

God's love is not just a fact, it is the dynamic power of His purpose in us and for us.

Finally be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power (Eph 6:10).
