If you thought when you became a Christian you were leaving the fight to get into peace and tranquility, Paul says you were wrong. The Christian life is a fight. But now you have divine resources.
We come now to the last piece of the armor of God: “the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God.” At the beginning and at the end of talking about how to live a victorious Christian life, Paul talks about the Bible. It shows that everything we do in putting on the armor is a matter of taking Scripture and digesting it, applying it, working it out.
Let’s look at how 1) the truth is in the beginning of the armor, 2) the truth is at the end of the armor, and 3) how to take it up.
