Jd, 3-21

· (168c) Works of the devil Ø Manifestations of the devil Ø Do not conform to the world Ø Do not conform to the world’s rejection of God

· (6j) Protecting the Gospel (Key verse) – Now, on the one hand God can (and does) protect His own gospel by Himself, but on the other, He uses us as His spokespeople to defend His gospel through us. Essentially, the only time the word of God needs defending is when there is a direct attack on God’s ministry or on the people of His ministry. For example, Jesus drove the merchants out of the temple with a whip because they were profaning the old covenant temple service, defending the ministry. Likewise, He defended the people of His ministry when He rebuked the Pharisees because they were teaching the people their own invented precepts, while securing an avenue for the money to flow back to them. There is nowhere in Scripture that anyone ever defended the doctrines of the word of God for that reason alone, but always to preserve the work that God was currently doing.
