The Word of God is our spiritual weapon that will firstly allow us to walk with the Word of God inside our hearts as we study God's Word. We have a purpose of spreading the good news of God in order to fight against the evil one who has confused so many to deny the truth. God is the truth and with the Word of God we are able to speak the truth into other's lives. People are always looking for proof before they can believe in something, but with God we first need to believe in Jesus Christ before we can receive eternal life from God.
It is written in the book of 2 Corinthians ch10 v3-v5 (NLT) v3 We are human, but we don’t wage war as humans do. v4 We use God’s mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments. v5 We destroy every …show more content…

It is so important that we live out God's Word, if we simply read the Holy Bible, then we are learning about God. When we live out God's Word, which is when we imitate God. We need to learn about God, but walking in God's ways is even more important. We need to follow God's commands and walk righteously in God's ways.

    For as long as we have lived, our nation has developed an ideology that we were created to seek revenge and retaliate to those who have wronged us. Although, the act of revenge is not the solution to our problems, we still desire to inflict torment on each and every individual that we feel deserves it. However, this is not the only problem that we face today, America is a multicultural place where people believe in different practices and become prejudice to the diverse religions. In the book, “Strength to Love” written by Martin Luther King Jr., the American religious experience is in the strength to forgive and love one another. As a whole we must be open-minded and accept the differences in cultures we are exposed to with a tough mind and a tender heart.

    I can apply this verse to my life by repenting when I sin, because ultimately I am wicked and need to ask for forgiveness for the Lord and it will be granted to me. Although, I do disagree with Simon and I think that one should pray to the Lord for my their own forgiveness and no one else needs to do it for them. In verse twenty two, the phrase “if possible, the intention of your heart may be forgiven you” stood out to me.

    Out of this tension and search for answers in Christian thought, emerged the Just War Theory of St. Augustine of Hippo. Augustine continued in the Christian tradition of believing all war to be intrinsically evil. He unequivocally condemned those who desired, sought, or enjoyed war, and made it clear that to engage in a just war is to engage in war by force of necessity. In Book 4, chapter 14 of his magnum opus, The City of God, he says “to carry on war and extend a kingdom over wholly subdued nations seems to bad men to be felicity, to good men necessity .”
