No Turning Back — Part 2 “The children of Ephraim, being armed, and carrying bows, turned back in the day of battle” (Psalm 78:9). The Christian is never to turn and flee from the enemy. We are to “Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness” (Ephesians 6:14). If you read carefully the description of the “Armour of God” in Ephesians 6:14-18, you will find there is no piece of armour for the back. The Christian life is one of going forward, and meeting the enemy in the power of the Lord and with the resources given to us by Him. The Indian Christian missionary, Sundar Singh, perhaps summed it up best in the hymn that is attributed to his authorship, and which we often sang as young people: I have decided to follow Jesus; I have decided to follow Jesus; I have decided to follow Jesus; No turning back, no turning back. The world behind me, the cross before me; The world behind me, the cross before me; The world behind me, the cross before me; No turning back, no turning back.
