Commentary

There are many of people who thinks that becoming a "Born Again" Christian will be easy street and all problems are gone.  But their struggles has just begun.

Jesus said we will be hated by all nations, persecuted and such Matthew 10:22.

The struggles of putting away the past sins, the struggles of avoiding sinful temptations, the struggles of being persecuted and hated because of the name sake of Jesus Christ. And the struggles of not being a part of this world, but to be a part of the kingdom of God instead.

There is not any scriptures that even suggest that becoming a Christian, their lives will be easy and full of worldly wealth and so-called worldly prosperity. .

Actually Jesus said that we will have tribulation in this world John 16:33!

"ALL THINGS" are possible with Jesus Christ, so my friend do not be discouraged, but be of good cheer. John 16:33,  Jesus has overcame this world, so you to can over come this wicked world as well.

You can overcome this world as long as you put on the "Full Armor of God". Without that we will not have any defense against satan, and then satan will win. Do you want satan to win your eternal soul because you neglected to put on the full armor of God?

Are you seeking the Kingdom of God First?

Ephesians 6:10-17

Eph 6 10The Whole Armor of God Finally, my brethren, be

    strong in the Lord and in the power of His might.

11Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to

    stand against the wiles of the devil.

12For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against

     principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the

    darkness of this age,* against spiritual hosts of

    wickedness in the heavenly places.

13Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may

    be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to

1) Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth,

2) having put on the breastplate of righteousness,

3) 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the

     gospel of peace.

4) 16above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will

    be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one.

5) 17And take the helmet of salvation,

6) and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.
