1Ti 6:12 “Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.”

The only fight we are to fight as believers is the fight of faith. We don’t fight against men, we don’t fight against society… though it is incumbent upon us to speak the truth of the Word to society and live as an and example before society. BUT, we don’t fight society, we don’t attack, we extol God’s love, His virtue, His demonstration of Love in sending Jesus as sacrifice and substitute for THE WORLD. We aren’t against the world, we are to, as God did, and does, LOVE the world!

Indeed, we are here to reach the world with the Love of God! Other religions and belief systems attack, destroy, and try to “take over” the world, and set up their rule and law, but as believers we are to preach the Word of God, in season and out of season.

2Ti 4:2 “Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.”

We exhort (which means “to call near, or invite”) with all patience (longsuffering) and teaching of God’s Word (doctrine.) So, we are here on earth on a mission. Our mission is to share God’s Love, His Goodness, and His Lovingkindness in sending His Son, Jesus on behalf of the world.

We are to “profess a good profession.” The Greek word translated “profess” here is to “speak the same thing.” It is the Greek word, “homelogeo.” “homo” means the same, “logeo” is derived from “logos,” the Word. To “speak the same word of God!” Notice we are to do this before many witnesses. We speak what God has given us to speak. In doing so, we are fighting the good fight of faith!
