Godly Sorrow vs. Shame – Seeing Satan’s Counterfeits

31 Episode – Godly Sorrow vs. Shame – Seeing Satan’s Counterfeits

Satan tries to ruin everything God has given us in this world. He wants us to be confused, and he does his best at it. The only way we can counter it is to figure out what is really truth and how the adversary counterfeits it. Guilt is one of those. There is God’s way and Satan’s way.

Mighty in the Truth

25 Episode – Mighty in the Truth

The sword of truth is all we have to fight with, but will we pick it up?

Note: I refer to the sword in the Armor of God as the sword of truth, but the scriptures actually refer to it as the sword of the Spirit. I think my confusion came from the Hymn Let Us All Press On, 243. But, the scriptures came from the Spirit prompting prophets to write things down. And all truth comes to us by the Spirit, so, it works. Enjoy!
