The Gift of a Comrade in Arms by Pastor Joseph Cortes There is something about hardship that reveals the value of fellowship. When everything is going well, it is easy to believe we are stronger than we really are. It is easy to imagine that we do not need anyone else. But the battlefield has a way of exposing that illusion. When men and women endure war together, bonds develop that cannot easily be explained to those who have never experienced it. Shared danger strips away appearances. Hardship exposes what is real. The person standing beside you in the darkness becomes more than an acquaintance. He becomes a fellow soldier. One powerful illustration of this came during World War II through the story of the four chaplains. These men came from different religious backgrounds, yet they were united by service, compassion, and extraordinary courage. They had met during chaplaincy training and later found themselves aboard a U.S. Army transport ship carrying hundreds of soldiers through dangerous waters. The threat was very real. German submarines were attacking Allied ships, and everyone aboard understood that the journey could cost them their lives. These soldiers needed more than military instructions. They needed courage, comfort, and hope. Then, in the darkness of the early morning, the ship was struck by a torpedo. Chaos erupted. Men were wounded. Others were terrified. The ship began sinking. In that moment, the four chaplains could have thought only about their own survival. Instead, they moved toward the need. They comforted frightened soldiers, helped the wounded, directed men toward safety, and distributed life jackets. When the supply of life jackets was exhausted, the chaplains removed their own and gave them to others. They chose to save others at the cost of their own lives. As the ship disappeared beneath the water, survivors reported seeing the four men standing together, linked arm in arm, facing eternity together.

by Pastor Joseph Cortes He Hath Not Hid His Face From Him There is another reason I believe we should be careful about saying that the Father abandoned Jesus upon the cross. We should keep reading Psalm 22. People often stop at the opening line, “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” But the Psalm does not stop there. Psalm 22:24 says, “For he hath not despised nor abhorred the affliction of the afflicted; neither hath he hid his face from him; but when he cried unto him, he heard.” Those words are extremely important. The very Psalm Jesus quoted eventually says that God had not hidden His face from the afflicted One and that when He cried, God heard Him. Psalm 16 gives another remarkable prophecy concerning Christ. Verse 10 says, “For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.” The cross was horrible. The suffering was real. The rejection was real. The nails were real. The blood was real. The pain was real. Death was real. But God’s plan was not defeated. The Father had not forgotten His Son. Heaven was not watching helplessly while everything spiraled out of control. The cross was part of the plan, and Jesus knew exactly where that plan was leading. There is something deeply comforting about seeing the cross this way. Even in His suffering, Jesus was pointing people back to the Word of God. He was telling them to remember what Moses wrote, remember what David wrote, remember what Isaiah wrote, remember what Zechariah wrote, and remember what God had promised. The cross was not proof that God’s promises had failed. The cross was proof that God’s promises were being fulfilled. Imagine those who loved Jesus standing nearby. Everything they had hoped for must have seemed shattered. They believed He was the Messiah. They watched Him heal the sick. They heard Him teach. Some had seen Him raise the dead. They believed He was the One who was to come, and now He was hanging upon a Roman cross. From the human point of view, it looked like defeat. But Scripture tells us the story from God’s point of view. The cross was not defeat. It was accomplishment. The cross was not the end of the promise. It was the fulfillment of the promise.

The Christian Life Is a Battlefield by Pastor Joseph Cortes The apostle Paul writes, “For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds” (2 Corinthians 10:4). That word “warfare” comes from the Greek word strateia, and it carries the idea of a military campaign, a soldier’s service, an expedition, and a life lived in battle formation. Paul was not describing Christianity as a peaceful walk through religious scenery. He was describing a spiritual campaign. He understood that when a person comes to Christ, that person has entered a conflict where truth is opposed, the gospel is resisted, and the enemy seeks to tear down what God is building. One of the related Greek words carries the idea of a “comrade in arms.” In the ancient world, that was not a casual expression. A comrade in arms was someone who had stood beside you in battle, someone who had faced danger with you, and someone who understood the weight of the struggle because he had been there himself. There is a bond that develops when people go through warfare together. They know what it is to stand when everything around them is shaking, and they know what it means to depend upon one another when the battle becomes fierce. That picture helps us understand something important about the Christian life. Paul does not say merely, “the weapons of my warfare.” He says, “the weapons of our warfare.” There is a shared battle among believers. There is a common struggle in the ministry of the gospel. There is a fellowship among those who have been saved by grace, called into service, and placed under the authority of the Lord Jesus Christ. We need to recover this understanding because much of modern Christianity seems to want faith without conflict, ministry without wounds, truth without opposition, and service without sacrifice. But Scripture never promises that following Christ will always be easy.
