Beloved in Christ,
The Church today faces battles on two fronts—enemies without and enemies within.
The Enemy Without – The forces of paganism, persecution, and terrorism seek to silence the Gospel and destroy the people of God. Governments and ideologies rise against the truth, just as Christ warned: "If the world hates you, keep in mind that it hated me first" (John 15:18).
The Enemy Within – False teachers and proud dividers, especially those who demand KJV-Onlyism and the "Perfect Textus Receptus" as if they alone possess pure truth. These men sow discord, attack fellow believers, and drain the Church’s energy with endless disputes. They have caused pain, division, and distraction—exalting their opinions above love and unity.
But we do not lose heart. We pray:
For Patience & Longsuffering – That the Church endures, standing firm with Christ, who bore all things for us.
For Humility – That God breaks the pride of these false teachers, opening their eyes to their own error before they lead more astray.
For Discernment – That believers test all things (1 John 4:1) and hold fast to the true Gospel—not traditions of men.
"The Lord’s servant must not be quarrelsome but must be kind to everyone, able to teach, not resentful. Opponents must be gently instructed, in the hope that God will grant them repentance leading them to a knowledge of the truth" (2 Timothy 2:24-25).
Pray with us:
Father, protect Your Church from attacks outside and deception inside. Silence the voices of pride and division. Give us grace to suffer well, love deeply, and stand firm in Your Word—not in man’s dogmas. Humble those who cause strife, and let Your truth prevail in love. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Stay steadfast. The gates of hell will not prevail (Matthew 16:18).
