Our True Battle

February 23, 2025 | Ephesians 6.10-12 | Rob Collis

As Paul comes to his final thought in his letter to the Ephesians, he brings up a topic the Church has handled very well over the last 100 years. He talks about spiritual warfare. For many of us, it can be tempting for us to brush past this topic today, but the witness of Scripture won’t allow us to discount this, or treat it as inconsequential. As those who walk in the light of Jesus Christ, we’re not to be obsessed with the dark – and we’re not to be afraid of the dark – and we can also never ignore it. Instead, we are to expose it.

This week, as Rob Collis preaches from Ephesians 6.10-12, explores three questions: Who is this enemy? What are his schemes? How do we stand against him? And as he unpacks this, he points out how Paul deliberately left this topic until the end of his letter, because he wants for the grace of Jesus Christ to seep into every fibre, nook, and cranny of our lives – because it’s when we are held and steeped in Jesus’ grace that we discover that he’s already equipped us with his armor.
