Take every thought captive

[RZehr]

What is the weapon? It isn't of the flesh, or worldly.

First off, I apologize for not being on in the past few days to engage in conversation. I think you've all issued some good thoughts. I'm really intrigued by Bootstraps thoughts. I'll admit, I was brought up in a very.. errr..."out of context" kind of church/ family. So bear with me. Your points do make sense.

What is the weapon? It isn't of the flesh, or worldly.

Interesting question. Is it something we can really pinpoint?

For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power

Anything with divine power is something far bigger than us. I imagine in such situations, like the one Paul is in here, where men stand up against the knowledge of God, an intervention by the divine is called for.

To pinpoint this, it might be helpful to study 2 Corinthians. It's been a while. Anyone want to read through the book and make a list of ways that Paul approaches his opponents in the book? This is one of those neglected books of the New Testament that is surprisingly rich.

I'll read along and (try) to put forth some input. I've always liked 2 Corinthians.
