Tullian Tchividjian quotes Cornelius Plantinga and reminds us that we are fighting in a great cosmic battle. (Click here).
Too often Christians forget that Satan prowls around like a roaring lion and wants to crush souls in his jaws. We’re in a war. The great Dutch theologian Abraham Kuyper wrote:
“If once the curtain were pulled back, and the spiritual world behind it came to view, it would expose to our spiritual vision a struggle so intense, so convulsive, sweeping everything within its range, that the fiercest battle fought on earth would seem, by comparison, a mere game. Not here, but up there – that is where the real conflict is engaged.. Our earthly struggle drones in its backlash.” Abraham Kuyper.
Great quote and your timing is perfect – I’ll use it this Sunday in my sermon from Matthew 8:28ff. Thanks
