Professing a Good Profession

We have just finished working to understand faithfulness to Jesus Christ in terms of fleeing from temptation and pursuing His graces. Now we are starting to work on understanding faithfulness to our Lord Jesus in terms of fighting a fight. That is figurative language, which helps us understand the nature of the Christian life as a struggle. Some of the plain language the apostle uses to expound what he means by fighting such a good fight is about remembering our profession of faith.
