UFC Lessons for the Christian

The first lesson the Christian can learn from the octagon is that you need to be prepared to fight. Let me explain.

The men who enter the octagon all train for battle [some better then others].

If you pulled a person out of the watching crowd, who did not have this mind-set and who did not train for hand to hand combat, and placed them within the octagon to fight a seasoned fighter...the results would be disasterous.

But if you pulled a spectator out of the crowd who fought his whole life on the streets you just might have a good battle on your hands.

The point isn't whether you train for the octagon or not...its whether you are training for battle [octagon or the street].

Many Christians wake up each day and go to bed each night without ever realizing that they 'have' been involved in a battle.

true true... tonight at Bible study, we were talking about how the word ezer (i dont know if that is spelt correctly.... its pronounced "aa-zer" like razor) means warrior, strong helper, etc... interesting how we often do not think of ourselves in battle, how we need to be warriors, etc... rambling i know, but after a study or deep discusion i often ramble in order to collect my thoughts.. *chuckles* good posts, i need to link to your blog.... :-)
