Battleground or Playground?

In time of war soldiers are hardly sitting around arguing about some of the things that the Body of Christ finds to argue about in the hour that we live. We live in such wealth that luxurious living and pleasure seeking have become the norm both in the world and in the Church. Just how has the luxurious living and pleasure seeking life style infiltrated the Church? Satan is the father of lies and has sold many well intended Christians the lie that we are God's children and deserve the best. Truth be known we all deserve to die for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. Yes, we are God's children and He does indeed love us, but it is our place to be about His business; not worrying about living a trouble free life of ease, comfort, and excess. We are in a war and need to awaken to the fact that the enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy. This is no time for petty bickering and competitive spirits . We are serving the most high God and should be about dying daily to self and the serving part of our walk. We are living on a battleground not a playground.
