God's weapons are His Word, wisdom, and counsel. Worldly weapons are society's philosophy, culture, customs, laws, or lifestyles that are contrary to God's Word. You may question, "The world has weapons?" Oh yes, there is a continual onslaught of hell via the world's system to compromise the Christian and unbeliever alike.

Should I not partake of anything the world consumes? If so, how can I live and function in this world?

Those who truly believe will exhibit a changed nature and no longer produce the fruit of an evil one.
