The Good Soldier

A disciple of Jesus is compared to a soldier. A good soldier knows the mission and the battlefield. The mission is to preach the gospel and make disciples on the specific battlefield where you are called. A good soldier is familiar with the weapon of the word of God. It will be impossible to be an effective disciple maker without knowing and accurately handling the word of God. A good soldier is not entangled in the affairs of everyday life so that he may please the one who enlisted him. Are you a good soldier on mission and free of worldly distraction?
