"We look upon the enemy of our souls as a conquered foe, so he is, but only to God, not to us"
- Oswald Chambers
About this Quote
The quote implies that we may see the devil as beat or conquered, but in truth, he is just conquered in the eyes of God, not in our own capability to resist him. We must constantly depend on God to conquer the opponent's temptations and attacks.
"When the principles that run against your deepest convictions begin to win the day, then the battle is your calling, and peace has become sin. You must at the price of dearest peace lay your convictions bare before friend and enemy with all the fire of your faith"
