Discerning the Battle – Paul L. Cox


Discerning the Battle is designed to provide a Biblical look at what it means to use our physical senses to discern spiritual realities.

This teaching examines what the Biblical gift of discernment is, how to use it, and gives practical examples of ways of using this powerful gift of the Holy Spirit.

At the foundation of this teaching is the understanding that all of these gifts and abilities come from the grace of God, through our relationship with Jesus Christ … never through our own self effort or achievements.

“But solid food belongs to those who are of full age, that is, those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.” (Hebrews 5:14, NKJV)
