Shepherding Words (3) | God’s Government and God’s Grace

Finally, be empowered in the Lord and in the might of His strength. Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the stratagems of the devil, For our wrestling is not against blood and flesh but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenlies. Therefore take up the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Ephesians 6:10-13.

As believers who love the Lord and who are standing for His testimony, we must not be ignorant of the schemes of God’s enemy in his attacks on the church. In order to help educate and inoculate us against such attacks, the co-workers in North America have released a series of articles on ShepherdingWords.com, which expose the stratagems of the devil.

This week, we have a narration of the article entitled “God’s Government and God’s Grace,” originally released on October 26, 2020. This article clearly explains the distinction of and relationship between these two complementary systems—a system of government and a system of grace— through which God accomplishes His eternal economy. It also addresses the error of using God’s grace as an excuse to neglect or rebel against God’s government.

May the Lord supply us through this speaking and equip us to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
