We are saved.[1 John 5 v13 ]

And  take the helmet of salvation[ Ephesians 6 17 ] could it be that the writer is saying that our salvation is like a helmet that protects us from our enemy,and his attacks.The enemy will  attack us in various ways,consider how he attacked Job,and how he attacked Paul [2 Corinthians 12 v7]. Maybe you are under attack from satan,inspite of all his efforts he cannot  succeed,it is Paul who asks a number of questions,in Romans 8 ,the first one is,What shall we say to these things, that is the things he has been writing about ,that of our justification and glorification.These are two things the enemy will attack us on,for it is an amazing truth that we are justified,even though we are sinners,and it is an amazing thing that we know we are going to glory. As I said in an earlier blog as regards the person who said I was not saved,this was an attack by the enemy.Charles Hodge wrote,/That which adorns the Christian,which enables him/her to hold up their head with confidence and joy, is the fact that they are saved/
A  prayer...../ Dear God we praise You that we are saved,we thank You that the enemy of our souls can not change this, that no power can seperate us from Your love which is in Christ Jesus our Lord Amen /
