The Breastplate of Righteousness
December 17, 2018
The Bible tells us to walk in the Spirit and we will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. Walking in the flesh comes natural. We don’t have to exert ourselves, it’s a part of our old nature. However, as people who have received a new life in Christ, we also have a new strength or power from the Lord, and a new way to obtain that strength. With Biblical insight and practical examples, Pastor Jeff Johnson shows us how to daily live by wearing the spiritual armor of the breastplate of righteousness. It’s part of the Armor of God series in Ephesians 6. So, if you have your Bible, we encourage you to open up the Word and join us for our message in Sound Doctrine with Pastor Jeff Johnson.

It’s the final installment of our study titled, “The Belt of Truth”. So with that in mind, let’s join Pastor Jeff Johnson in Ephesians 6 for today’s study in Sound Doctrine.

The history of those whom God has used in powerful ways shows that the one thing they all had in common was the fact that they maintained their time in the Word of God. God’s Word gave them courage. The Word caused believers to see clearly when others followed the world. And the Word of God was the agent of change by God’s Spirit in countless people’s lives as believers faithfully shared it with others. As we resume our study of Sound Doctrine on the belt of truth Pastor Jeff Johnson reminds us that it is the very truth that will hold all things together in our lives as we maintain a constant balanced diet of God’s Word in our lives. With more on that, let’s join Pastor Jeff in Ephesians 6 for today’s equipping in Sound Doctrine.

When it comes to walking in God’s Spirit, it is an either/or proposition. We will either walk in the Spirit and be heavenly minded, or we will revert to the default of walking in the flesh, which comes naturally. As we walk in light of God’s Word His Spirit enables us to be heavenly minded and ready to stand in the day of spiritual conflict with God’s Word implanted in our hearts. So with our study on the Belt of Truth, join us in Ephesians 6 for today’s encouragement in Sound Doctrine, with Pastor Jeff Johnson.

It’s been said that all our trials are Father-filtered, meaning that the enemy can’t touch you or I unless God gives him permission. That includes permission for how long and how much he is allowed. Satan can never touch a child of God without God’s permission. So when we go through challenges wearing God’s armor, we can know that it is God-allowed and He will provide a way of escape so we are able to bear it. With more on how God protects us with His armor, let’s join Pastor Jeff in Ephesians 6 for our study titled, “God’s Armor” in Sound Doctrine.

As a part of our new series titled, “God’s Armor” Pastor Jeff Johnson pinpoints some key areas that believers leave unattended as it relates to the Holy Spirit and God’s Armor. So with open Bible, if possible, join us in Ephesians 6 for today’s encouragement in Sound Doctrine.

When it comes to this time of year we hear songs fill the air with sounds of redemption from our Savior. Good tidings of great things are being proclaimed. And yet instead of good tidings or great things, there is discouragement and hopelessness for many. That’s why Pastor Jeff shares a message of encouragement knowing where we stand in the midst of the constant barrage against the joy and hope that is found in Christ. He continues to show us how to attain and maintain that eternal hope in temporal challenges. So with that in mind, join us in Ephesians 6 for our message titled, “Our Stand in the Battle - Part 2” for today’s encouragement in Sound Doctrine.
