The Scriptures explain that we are Christian soldiers. In 2 Timothy 2:3-4 we read the following: “You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Jesus Christ. No one engaged in warfare entangles himself with the affairs of this life, that he may please him who enlisted him as a soldier”.
The Christian life is not always easy—there are hardships we must endure. We strive to please our commander, Jesus Christ. First Timothy 6:12 shows that we are to “fight the good fight of faith.” We are in a spiritual battle daily with Satan. We must also do battle against the society around us and the pulls and passions of our own nature.
