Every born-again Christian man is fighting three wars at the same time.
基督徒男性面临的三大争战 • 第三场会让你震惊。
你必须在神的灵里重生。
弟兄,
每个重生的基督徒男性都在同时进行三场争战。大多数人没有意识到这一点。他们以为自己只是在与情欲、怀疑或自律作斗争。
但事实是,你并非在打一场仗,而是在同时打三场仗。
如果你不知道自己此刻身处哪场争战之中,你将会输掉所有三场。
以下是每个重生的基督徒男性都要面对的三场争战,以及赢得每场争战的圣经策略。
大多数人输掉这些争战是因为他们使用了错误的武器。
¹ 他们用身体的自律来打一场精神上的争战。
² 他们用人的意志力来打一场属灵的争战。
³ 他们只靠祷告来打一场身体上的争战。
但圣经的教导很明确:不同的战斗需要不同的武器。
以弗所书第六章不仅说要穿戴盔甲,还具体告诉你哪件盔甲可以抵御哪种攻击。
头盔保护你的心智。
剑攻击敌人。
盾牌阻挡谎言。
所以,如果你想得胜,就必须知道自己身处哪场战斗,以及该使用哪种武器。
弟兄,让我们来分析一下。
每个重生的基督徒男人面临的第一场战斗就是与自己的思想作斗争。
这是思想的战争。那些在你脑海中闪过的画面。那些不断重复的幻想。那些告诉你“你不够好”、“你永远不会改变”、“你还不如放弃”的谎言。
这场战斗可能发生在淋浴时,可能发生在办公桌前,也可能发生在晚上11点你还在刷手机的时候。
这是一场与侵入性思想、淫念和精神漩涡的战争,它们会把你从神身边拉开,让你陷入羞耻之中。
而大多数男人没有意识到的是,你无法阻止这些想法的出现,但你可以阻止它们停留。
这场精神上的战斗之所以感觉不可能,是因为你认为有了不好的想法就意味着你已经犯了罪。
但耶稣并没有这样说。在马太福音4章中,魔鬼用三种试探来攻击耶稣。 这些不仅仅是外在的诱惑,更是潜移默化的思想,是植入耶稣脑海的念头。
“如果你真是神的儿子,就证明给我看。把这些石头变成面包。从圣殿跳下去。敬拜我,我就把一切都给你。”
耶稣听到这些念头并没有犯罪。只有当他认同这些念头时,他才犯了罪。
试探本身不是罪。但如果他付诸行动,那就是罪了。
所以,当一个淫念进入你的脑海时,那不是罪。那是仇敌的攻击。
当你邀请这个念头停留时,罪就发生了。当你沉溺于它、反复回想它、喂养它时,罪就发生了。
战场不在于这个念头是否出现,而在于你在接下来的五秒钟内做了什么。
那么,你该如何战胜它呢?
三种武器。
首先,要将每一个念头都夺回。哥林多后书 10:5 说:“我们将所有的心意夺回,使它顺服基督。” 这意味着,一旦有淫念、羞耻的念头或谎言的念头进入你的脑海,你就要抓住它。不要让它游荡,不要让它钻空子,而是要抓住它。
实际上,这意味着你要打断这个念头,必要时可以大声说出来。“不,这不是真的。我拒绝它!”
不要与它辩论,不要与它讨价还价。
你要抓住它,然后把它扔掉。奉耶稣基督的名。阿们。
其次,用真理取代谎言。
腓立比书 4:8 说:“凡是真实的、可敬的、公义的,这些事你们都要思念。”
你不能只是消除坏念头,而是要用正确的念头取而代之。
所以,当一个念头说你永远无法获得自由时,你要立刻反驳说:“我在基督里是新造的人,旧事已过。”
当一个念头说你失败太多次时,你要反驳说:“神的怜悯每天早晨都是新的。我的过去并不能定义我。”
第三,每日更新你的思想。
罗马书 12:2 说:“要心意更新而变化。”
你并非一劳永逸地赢得这场精神之战,而是每天都要赢得它。
这意味着背诵经文,每日领受真理,在谎言出现之前就用神的话语压制你的思想。
你思想的争夺战在念头出现的最初五秒钟内就已结束。
抓住它,取代它,每日更新。
这就是守护你思想的方法。
2. 每个重生的基督徒男人都要面对的第二场争战是与肉体争战。
这是一场与欲望、肉体冲动、肉体渴求、被触动时胸口的紧张感、以及明知不该做之事却依然无法抗拒的战争。
这场争战在你意识到之前就已经发生在你的身体里了。
当你看到不该看到的东西时,肾上腺素会飙升;当你夜深人静独自一人时,会感到焦躁不安;你会感到肉体的欲望战胜了你的意志力。
大多数人之所以输掉这场争战,是因为他们认为欲望本身就是罪。但欲望本身并非罪。
你如何对待欲望,决定了你是否犯罪。
使徒保罗在罗马书7章中谈到了这一点。他说:“我所做的,我自己不明白;我所愿意的,我并不做;我所恨恶的,我倒去做。”
他描述的是灵与肉之间的争战。 在你知道的正确与你身体的渴望之间。
你的身体是上帝创造的,它能让你感受到欲望。
性欲并非邪恶,它是上帝创造你的一部分。
问题在于,我们生活在一个堕落的世界,这种欲望被劫持、扭曲,并被引向上帝从未设想过的方向。
因此,争战的重点不是消除欲望,而是管理它,引导它走向上帝所期望的方向,掌控你的身体,而不是被它掌控。
哥林多前书 9:27 说:“我是攻克己身,叫身服我,免得我传福音给别人,自己反被弃绝了。”
使徒保罗并非在谈论自我厌恶,而是在谈论自制,训练你的身体顺服你的灵。
那么,如何才能战胜它呢?三种武器。
首先,克制肉体的欲望。 加拉太书 5:16 说:“你们当顺着圣灵而行,就不放纵肉体的情欲了。”
你不能一边纵容肉体,一边指望它保持软弱。你看到的每一个淫秽画面,你做出的每一个妥协,你越过的每一个界限,都是在助长你想要消灭的东西。
克制肉体意味着切断与这些事物的联系,删除应用程序,安装过滤器,改变你的日常作息,避开触发因素。
你不能与肉体讨价还价,你必须让它挨饿。
第二,约束你的身体。
哥林多前书 6:19-20 说:“你们的身子就是圣灵的殿,所以要在你们的身子上荣耀神。”
这意味着要约束身体,锻炼身体,保证睡眠,健康饮食,照顾好自己的身体,不让它控制你。
当你身体的某个方面得到约束时,其他方面也更容易约束自己。
能够早起锻炼的人,也能抵制住午夜点击链接的冲动。
身体上的约束能培养属灵上的约束。
第三,将你的欲望转向神。不要只是压抑欲望,而是要引导它。
当你感到那种拉扯、那种渴望、那种躁动不安时,把它转化为敬拜,转化为祷告,转化为对神的渴慕。阅读圣经,分享启示,为他人祷告。
大卫就是这样做的。 当他被欲望淹没时,他在诗篇42篇中写道:“我的心切慕你,如鹿切慕溪水。”他将肉体的渴望转化为属灵的渴求。
战胜肉体的争战需要通过克制、自律和重新引导来赢得胜利。
掌控你的身体,否则你的身体将掌控你。
每个重生的基督徒男人所面临的第三场争战是属灵的争战。
这是一场信心的战争。
跌倒后悄然滋生的怀疑。
羞耻感告诉你,上帝已经放弃了你。
谎言告诉你,你已经无可救药,破碎不堪,污秽不堪,上帝无法使用你。
这场争战发生在安静的时刻。
当你坐在教堂里,感觉自己像个伪君子。
当你祷告,却感觉上帝没有回应。
当你怀疑自己是否真的得救时。
这是最危险的争战,因为它不仅攻击你的行为,更攻击你的身份认同、你与神的关系以及你得救的确据。
仇敌不仅想让你犯罪,更想让你相信神因为你的罪而放弃了你。这才是真正的攻击。
启示录12:10称魔鬼为控告我们弟兄的,昼夜在我们神面前控告他们。
他不仅引诱你跌倒,还在你跌倒后控告你。他低语道:神现在无法使用你了。你已经失败太多次了。 你并非真正属于他。”如果他能让你相信这个谎言,他就无需再试探你了,因为你会自取灭亡。
你会远离上帝。你会停止抗争。但真相是:
你的信仰并非基于你的行为,而是基于基督已完成的救赎。
罗马书 8:1 说:“如今,那些在基督耶稣里的人,就不定罪了。”
不是说只要你停止犯罪就不定罪。而是说,不再定罪。就这么简单。
你属灵的争战,就是在羞耻感让你相信真相时,依然要相信这个真理的争战。
那么,你该如何得胜呢?
三种武器。
首先,要坚守你在基督里的身份。当羞耻感袭来时,不要为自己辩解,而是要指向耶稣。“我在基督里。我的身份稳固。我的救恩已经完成。我的罪已被赦免。”
这并非因为我配得,而是因为耶稣基督已经为我付清了赎价。
歌罗西书3:3说:“你们的生命与基督一同藏在神里面。”
这意味着当神看你时,父神看到的是基督的义,而不是你的罪。
这并非犯罪的借口,而是悔改的根基。
其次,要尽快悔改。
不要让羞耻感使你远离神。要奔向祂,而不是远离祂。
约翰一书1:9说:“我们若认自己的罪,神是信实的,是公义的,必要赦免我们的罪。”
立刻认罪。不要等到你觉得自己准备好了才来。
不要试图先洗净自己。坦然无惧地来到祂面前。
你等待的时间越长,谎言就越根深蒂固。
迅速悔改。迅速重新站起来。不要让羞耻得逞。
第三,顺着圣灵而行。
加拉太书 5:25 说:“我们若是靠圣灵得生,就当靠圣灵行事。”
这意味着每天降服,每天依靠,每天祈求神充满你、引导你、赐你力量。
你无法靠自己的力量打赢这场属灵的争战。
你需要圣灵,而祂已经住在你里面。
祈求祂带领你,并跟随祂。
赢得这场属灵争战的关键在于坚守你的身份,迅速悔改,并顺着圣灵而行。
不要让羞耻使你与那位唯一能拯救你的神隔绝。
所以,这就是大多数重生的基督徒从未意识到的真理:你不是这些争战的受害者。
你是其中的战士。
心智、身体、灵性。
这些并非你正在输掉的战斗。
而是你正在学习如何赢得的战斗。
每当你控制住一个念头,约束你的身体,或摒弃羞耻感,奔向神,你不仅是在生存,更是在得胜。
以弗所书 6:10 说:“你们要靠着主,倚赖他的大能大力作刚强的人;不是靠自己的力量,乃是靠他的力量。”
你并非孤军奋战。你是在与那位已经得胜的神并肩作战。
所以,不要再把自己看作那个不断失败的人。你是那个不断重新站起来的人。这才是勇士的所作所为。勇士的胜利并非源于从未跌倒,而是源于永不屈服。
你现在正身处三场战斗之中:心智、身体、灵性。
你拥有三件武器:神的话语、圣灵,以及你在基督里的身份。
善用它们。
战斗。
胜利。
如果你不再把自己视为受害者,并准备好像神呼召你成为的那种人一样战斗,请在评论区留下“战士”二字。
信靠主耶稣基督,与他同在,战斗并得胜。
你不是在为自由而战,你是在为摆脱自由而战。
现在,活出这样的生命。
3 Battles Every Christian Man Faces • The 3rd Will Shock You.
You Must Be Born Again in the Spirit of God.
Brother,
Every born-again Christian man is fighting three wars at the same time. Most do not realize it. They think they are just struggling with lust or doubt or discipline.
But the truth is, you are not fighting one battle. You are fighting three battles, simultaneously.
And if you do not know which battle you are in at any given moment, you will lose all three.
Here are the three battles every born-again Christian man faces and the biblical strategy to win each one.
Most men lose these battles because they are using the wrong weapons.
¹ They are fighting a mental battle with physical discipline.
² They are fighting a spiritual battle with human willpower.
³ They are fighting a physical battle with prayer alone.
But scripture is clear. Different battles require different weapons.
Ephesians chapter 6 does not just say put on armour. It tells you exactly which piece of armour fights which attack.
The helmet guards your mind.
The sword strikes the enemy.
The shield blocks the lies.
So if you want to win, you need to know which battle you are in and which weapon to use.
Brother, Let us break it down.
The first battle every born again Christian man faces is the battle for his mind.
This is the war thoughts. The images that flash through your head. The fantasies that replay on loop. The lies that tell you, "you are not good enough." "You will never change." "You might as well give in."
This battle may happens in the shower, at your desk, while scrolling your phone at 11 p.m.
It is the war of intrusive thoughts, lustful imaginations, and mental spirals that pull you away from God and into shame.
And here is what most men do not realize. You cannot stop these thoughts from showing up, but you can stop them from staying.
The reason the mental battle feels impossible is because you think having a bad thought means you have already sinned.
But that's not what Jesus said. In Matthew 4, the devil attacks Jesus with three temptations. And those were not just external offers. They were mental suggestions, thoughts planted in Jesus' mind.
"If you are really the son of God, prove it. Turn these stones into bread. Jump off the temple. Worship me and l'll give you everything."
Jesus did not sin by hearing those thoughts. He sinned if he agreed with them.
The temptation was not sin. Acting on it would have been.
So when a lustful thought enters your mind, that's not sin. That is the enemy attacking.
Sin happens when you invite the thought to stay. When you entertain it, replay it, feed it.
The battlefield is not whether the thought shows up. The battlefield is what you do in the next 5 seconds.
So, how do you win?
Three weapons.
First, take every thought captive. 2 Corinthians 10:5 says,"We take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ." That means the moment a lustful, shameful, or lying thought enters your mind. You grab it. You do not let it wander. You do not follow it down the rabbit hole. You capture it.
Practically this means you interrupt the thought, out loud if you have to. "No, that is not true. I reject that!"
You do not debate it. You do not negotiate.
You capture it and throw it out. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Second, replace the lie with truth.
Philippians 4:8 says, "Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, think about such things.
You cannot just remove the bad thoughts. you have to replace it with a true one.
So when the thought says you will never be free, you immediately counter, "I am a new creation in Christ. The old has passed away."
When the thought says you have failed too many times, you counter, "God's mercies are new every morning. l am not defined by my past. "
Third, renew your mind daily.
Romans 12:2 says, "be transformed by the renewing of your mind."
You do not win the mental battle once. You win it every single day.
That means scripture memory, daily truth, speaking God's word over your thoughts before the lies even show up.
The battle for your mind is won in the first 5 seconds after a thought appears.
Capture it, replace it, renew daily.
That's how you guard your mind.
2. The second battle every born-again Christian man faces is the battle for his body.
This is the war of desires, the physical urges, the flesh cravings, the tension in your chest when you are triggered, the pull towards something you know you should not do.
This battle happens in your body before it ever reaches your mind.
It is the rush of adrenaline when you see something you should not. The restlessness when you are alone at night, the physical drive that feels stronger than your willpower.
And most men lose this battle because they think desire itself is sin. But desire is not sin.
What you do with desire determines whether you sin.
Apostle Paul talks about this in Romans 7. He says, "I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do, I do not do, but what I hate, that I do."
He is describing the war between spirit and flesh. Between what you know is right and what your body craves.
Your body was designed by God to feel desire.
Sexual desire is not evil. It is part of how God made you.
The problem is we live in a fallen world where that desire gets hijacked, twisted, redirected toward things God never intended.
So the battle is not to eliminate desire. The battle is to steward it, to direct it where God intended, to master your body instead of being mastered by it.
1 Corinthians 9:27 says, "I strike a blow to my body and make it my slave so that after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified."
Apostle Paul is not talking about self-hatred. He is talking about self-control, training your body to obey your spirit.
So, how do you win? Three weapons.
First, starve the flesh. Galatians 5:16 says, "Walk by the spirit and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh."
You cannot feed your flesh and expect it to stay weak. Every lustful image you look at, every compromise you make, every boundary you cross, you are feeding the very thing you are trying to kill.
Starving the flesh means cutting off access, deleting apps, installing filters, changing your routine, avoiding triggers.
You do not negotiate with your flesh, you starve it.
Second, discipline your body.
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 says, "Your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit. Honour God with your bodies."
That means physical discipline, exercise, sleep, eating well, taking care of your body so it is not ruling you.
When your body is disciplined in one area, it becomes easier to discipline in others.
The man who can wake up early and work out can also resist the urge to click that link at midnight.
Physical discipline trains spiritual discipline.
Third, redirect desire toward God. Do not just suppress desire, redirect it.
When you feel that pull, that craving, that restlessness turn it into worship, turn it into prayer, turn it into hunger for God. Read the Bible, share the revelation. Pray for others.
David did this. When he was overwhelmed with desire, he wrote in Psalm 42. As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God. He turned physical longing into spiritual thirst.
The battle for your body is won through starvation, discipline. and redirection.
Master your body or your body will master you.
The third battle every born-again Christian man faces is the battle for his spirit.
This is the war of faith.
The doubts that creep in after you fall.
The shame that tells you God is done with you.
The lies that say you are too far gone, too broken, too dirty to be used by God.
This battle happens in the quiet moments.
When you are sitting in church feeling like a hypocrite.
When you are praying but feeling like God is not listening.
When you are wondering if you are even saved at all.
This is the most dangerous battle because it does not just attack your behavior. It attacks your identity, your relationship with God, your assurance of salvation.
The enemy doesn't just want you to sin. He wants you to believe God has given up on you because you sinned. That's the real attack.
Revelation 12:10 calls devil the accuser of our brothers who accuses them before our God day and night.
He does not just tempt you to fall. He accuses you after you fall. He whisper God cannot use you now. You have failed too many times. You are not really his." And if he can get you to believe that lie, he does not need to tempt you anymore because you will disqualify yourself.
You will walk away from God. You will stop fighting. But here is the truth.
Your faith is not based on your performance. It's based on Christ's finished work.
Romans 8:1 says, "There is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
Not no condemnation if you stop sinning." No condemnation. Period.
The battle for your spirit is the battle to believe that truth when shame tells you otherwise.
So how do you win?
Three weapons.
First, stand on your identity in Christ. When shame attacks, you do not defend yourself. You point to Jesus. "I am in Christ. My identity is secure. My salvation is finished. I am forgiven."
Not because I deserve it, but because Jesus Christ paid for it.
Colossians 3:3 says, "Your life is now hidden with Christ in God."
That means when God looks at you, God the Father sees Christ's righteousness, not your sin.
That's not an excuse to sin. It's the foundation that makes repentance possible.
Second, repent quickly.
Do not let shame keep you from God. Run to Him, not away from him.
First John 1:9 says, "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us."
Confess immediately. Do not wait until you feel ready.
Do not try to clean yourself up first. Come as you are.
The longer you wait, the stronger the lie becomes.
Repent fast. Get back up fast. Do not let shame win.
Third, walk in the spirit.
Galatians 5:25 says, "Since we live by the spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit."
That means daily surrender, daily dependence, daily asking God to fill you, guide you, empower you.
You cannot fight the spiritual battle in your own strength.
You need the Holy Spirit and He is already living inside you.
Ask Him to lead and follow.
The battle for your spirit is won by standing on your identity, repenting quickly, and walking in the spirit.
Do not let shame separate you from the only One who can save you.
So here is the truth most born-again Christian men never realize. You are not a victim of these battles.
You are a warrior in them.
The mind, the body, the spirit.
These are not battles you are losing.
They are battles you are learning to win.
And every time you capture a thought, discipline your body or reject shame and run to God, you are not just surviving, you are conquering.
Ephesians 6:10 says, "Be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. Not your power, His."
You are not fighting alone. You are fighting with the God who already won.
So stop seeing yourself as the guy who keeps failing. You are the guy who keeps getting back up. That's what a warrior does. Warriors do not win by never falling. They win by refusing to stay down.
You are in three battles right now. the mind, the body, the spirit.
And you have three weapons: God's word, the Holy Spirit, and your identity in Christ.
Use them.
Fight.
Win.
Drop warrior in the comments, if you are done seeing yourself as a victim and ready to fight like the man God called you to be.
Trust the Lord Jesus Christ with you to fight and win.
You are not fighting for freedom, you are fighting from it.
Now live like it.
