One of the most important things that a solider lears in his traning is to be alert. He must be constantly be watching and be on guard for any attack of the enemy. If he fails in this first objective, it could mean a major defeat or even death. As Christians we must always be on the ALERT. We cannot afford toallow the enemy to take us by suprised. Jesus has commanded you to WATCH and PRAY (Matthews 26:41

You are definitely right!
More so for those of you who think we are not at war as Christian's with our adversary the devil...
1 Peter 5:8 (New King James Version)
8 Be sober, be vigilant; because[a] your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
2 Corinthians 10:4-5 (New King James Version)
4 For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, 5 casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,
1 Thessalonians 5:17 (New King James Version)
17 pray without ceasing,
Ephesians 6:10-18 (New International Version)
The Armor of God
10Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. 11Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. 13Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. 14Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, 15and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. 16In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. 17Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. 18And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

The Protestant church as all of us are conscious of it does not exist on the instant yet i'm constructive somebody else could have had themes with the Catholic Church later and smash off and initiate his very own Christian church. The Catholic Church does not blame the Protestants for something. The pope on the time of Luther and Calvin did disagree with them and a few others. however the Church in no way transformations in basic terms using fact some human beings do no longer like it truly is traditions and rules. God in no way transformations consequently the Church that His Son began in no way transformations. there have been some undesirable seeds interior the Church like there are in all religions. however the principles, Traditions, dogma, teachings of the scripture and the religion has in no way replaced and in no way will. that's what makes the Church sturdy and the single that God's Holy Spirit oversees. The call "Catholic" got here a number of thousands years after Jesus walked the earth. however the Catholic Church is the unique church that Jesus began with the 12 Apostles. you may could desire to reread the gospels, Acts, and others.

Just skimming what you have written, it is painfully obvious that you don't watch what you write. There are several glaring errors of grammar and spelling in your question.
Why, therefore should I take notice of what you say? You most certainly are not as alert as you preach. Look to your own laurels, man of sand.
Incidentally, as I am not a Christian, I have no fear of enemies.

I'll never understand why members of such a peaceful religion (since it's intended to be that way) always approach life, faith and religion as if they're going to war. You're not a "soldier for God" and if you are, why would you follow a god that wants you to go to battle constantly? It makes no sense.

you should be ashamed of yourself
