The Armor of Goliath: Part 3 by Dr. Rod Mattoon

About this sermon

In PART THREE of this series about Goliath’s armor we begin by taking a very close look at Mark 12:30. We touched on this verse at the end of part 2 and pick up where we left off. * Mark 12:30—And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. This verse depicts the battle of every Christian to love the Lord with your entire being. Our fleshly will clashes with this command. It is the reason why it is a command. It is the First Command for us. We begin the message by listing the significance of being the first command for us. There are five important principles. We also take a look at HOW we live out this verse and love Christ with our entire being. We break down the verse and explain each part. This message was preached on Wednesday night August 27, 2025, at Lincoln Land Baptist Church.
