In this passage, building on the experiences of Jesus, Paul, Peter, as well as himself, John reminds believers regarding the enemy they faced, and we face to this very day. Jesus overcame the evil one, and Paul, Peter, John, etc. had to learn to do this similarly in their own way, with Christ opening the way to do so. In this message, Pastor Troy Billow explains what is required for a believer to keep their focus, and follow through in action on this because spiritual warfare is a very real thing, and its intensity is most felt among those who are most engaged in the battle.
