Presentation transcript:

Gleanings from the Pentateuch “Holy War” (pt 3) Application to the Church

“Holy War” Jesus’ “Radical” Message:  “render to Caesar”; “put away your sword”; “My kingdom is not of this world”  Matthew 5:43-48 – “love your enemies” The nature of holy war has been redefined with the coming/fulfillment of Jesus

“Holy War” Application  What it is Not holy war today does not involve physical warfare, conflict or punishments enacted by Christians no form of warfare today is an application, direct or indirect, of Old Testament holy war “just war” theory is not derived from or related to Old Testament holy war

“Holy War” Application  Holy war is fought by disciples of Christ on the spiritual level with spiritual weapons against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places

“Holy War” Application 1. Conquering through the Gospel idolatrous enemies are transformed to worshipers of the living God through faith in Christ 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 – The gospel is a divinely powerful “weapon” – The battle is in the arena of ideas/thoughts

“Holy War” Application 2. Defending against Satan’s schemes  Ephesians 6:10-20 Our battle is ultimately against the spiritual forces of darkness Our defensive “armor” is the gospel; our offensive weapon is the Word of God

“Holy War” Implication We engage in holy war today by… actively confronting our culture and unbelievers with the gospel, and we avoid contaminating influence by putting on the armor of God
