Each individual in this war have their place of service...some are ment to nurse the wounds, others to fight the front lines against the opposition. Remember there is a “time for war”...we are in that time.
What I have noted over these past years is God is not only seeking those who are lost...but there is a definite push to rescue those caught in the strongholds of counterfeit religions and the cults...to bring them out. The enemy of mens souls does not let go of his victim without a fight. There is at the same time a very active push by the enemy of God to capture people and lead them away from Christ....many false Christs are being presented...just as He said there would be. So the war for mens souls is now fought on several fronts.....Satan knows is time is short.
That war fare I understand...hope this is not too confusing. (I will blame it on old age, :O) being old is good for something....
