Shepherding Words (4) | Three Foundational Truths and Why They Matter

Finally, be empowered in the Lord and in the might of His strength. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the stratagems of the devil, For our wrestling is not against blood and flesh but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenlies. Therefore take up the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Ephesians 6:10-13. As believers who love the Lord and who are standing for His testimony, we must not be ignorant of the schemes of God’s enemy in his attacks on the church. In order to help educate and inoculate us against such attacks, the co-workers in North America have released a series of articles on ShepherdingWords.com, which expose the stratagems of the devil. This week, we have a narration of the article entitled “Three Foundational Truths and Why They Matter,” originally released on October 26, 2020. This article clearly presents three categories of truth—the Triune God, God’s salvation in life, and the ground of the church, and why they matter to God’s eternal purpose. For decades, the teaching of these truths in the Lord’s recovery have been misunderstood and even opposed. Therefore, it is vitally important that we as God’s people would know and enter into these truths, and be equipped to defend them (2 Tim. 2:15; 1 Pet. 3:15), for the accomplishment of God’s eternal economy. May the Lord supply us through this speaking and equip us to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
