We will be going through Rosaria Butterfield’s book, “Five Lies of Our Anti-Christian Age” over the month of January, meeting each Wednesday night. This week, we will be reviewing and discussing the Foreword and Preface of the book. If you’ve yet to acquire a copy, you can download a PDF of the first section here.

Here’s an excerpt from the Foreword (by Kevin DeYoung) which I read out on Sunday:

“Have you ever noticed the central command for the Christian as he conducts spiritual warfare? Read over the passage in Ephesians 6 on the armor of God. The exhortation is not to cast out demons or bind territorial spirits. The command, repeated several times, is simply “stand” (vv. 11, 13, 14). Don’t give up. Don’t give in. Don’t back down. It’s as if Christ our captain is yelling out instructions to his troops: ‘Hold your lines, men! Don’t break ranks. Stand your ground!’ And how do we stand? It’s quite simple really. We live by truth, not by lies.
…
Five Lies of Our Anti-Christian Age has everything to do with the armor of God, because this book is a book about truth—truth you may have never heard, truth you may have forgotten, or truth you already know but haven’t dared to embrace. Don’t follow the great dragon; that’s what this book is about. He has already been defeated. Follow the one who is truth (John 14:6). Listen to him. Love him. Learn from him. Do not fall for the lies of our age. Stand your ground.”

We look forward to you joining us!
