Soldier

Wilson's Dictionary of Bible Types

2 Timothy 2:3 (a) The child of GOD is thus described by the Holy Spirit. He is not his own. His time belongs to his Master, so does his body. He goes where he is told, he eats what is given, he wears what is supplied. He has no will of his own, but is an implicit servant of the military forces. He studies the ways of the enemy, he finds means of defense from the enemy, and of offense toward the enemy. This should be true of every believer.
