The Redemptive Judgments of God
How can we tell the difference between a person who is truly seeking after God and those who only want to glorify themselves. In this sermon, Carter Conlon looks at Paul’s warning to the church in 2 Thessalonians and talks about the importance of discernment.
Spoils are plunder, goods, or loot won in battle. We all face battles and testings in our lives. God wants to give us something out of all our battles and tests. His interest is not just to give us victory but to cause us to come out of the battle with spoils — to make us more than conquerors. God builds resources in us through the battles — resources of spiritual power and authority that we can give to others when they face a battle.
