MLC: Week 2 (late)

Last week, we had the privilege of attending a three-day seminar on spiritual warfare led by Dr. Jerry Rankin, the president of the IMB. It was a challenging and refreshing time of examination of the Bible to see what the word had to say about this subject. Dr. Rankin taught very thoroughly on the fact that Satan is going to use anything he can get his hands on in our life to distract us from glorifying God, our ultimate goal. From our own anxieties and fears to pride and bad attitudes. He can use anything we don’t fully surrender to the Lord, and he does. We will guard ourselves from thinking that Satan doesn’t attack us in indirect ways and are now not ignorant of his devices (2 Corinthians 2:11). This is an interesting subject for anyone looking to study it.
