"We’re Invincible, Right?"

Noticing parallels between SEALs & Christians

(pt. 2)...

      Every Navy SEAL is supremely confident because they are indoctrinated with a belief in victory at all costs; a conviction that no earthly force can withstand their thunderous assault on the battlefield. Navy SEAL Marcus Luttrell said, “We’re invincible, right? Unstoppable. That’s what I believed to the depths of my spirit on the day they pinned that trident on my chest. I still believe it. And I always will.”

      When Christ’s followers understand their identity in Christ and the power of the Spirit mightily working in us, we live victoriously over temptation (1 Cor 10:13; Gal 5:16; Jude 24-25; 2 Pet 3:3-10; Ps 119:165, etc.). Our weapons are not worldly, but mighty through God (2 Cor 10:3-5). When we really grasp the victory that is promised to us (and already won by Jesus), we live more freely, obediently, and holy in front of the world bringing God glory and them good. If God is for us, who can be against us? In Christ, we're invincible, right?
