Some Thoughts About Standing

We’ve been studying Ephesians 6 about the armor of God. Here is something I read today in “The Christian in Complete Armor” by William Gurnall.

In Ephesians 6 Paul writes about the armor. He says the purpose is so that having done all, we will remain standing. William Gurnall writes this: At the end of this spiritual war, every Christian shall stand a conqueror over his vanquished lusts and Satan who headed them. For your eternal comfort, Christian, you can look forward to a day when there will be a full and final decision in the quarrel between you and Satan. You will see your enemy’s camp completely scattered, with not a weapon left in his hand to use against you. You will tread upon the very fortresses from which he fired so many shots. You will see them dismantled and demolished, until there is not one corruption left standing in your heart for the devil to hide himself in. On that glorious day, the enemy who has made you tremble will be trampled under your feet.
