“ This is why you must take up the full armor of God, so that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and having prepared
everything, to take your stand. Stand, therefore, with truth like a belt around your waist, righteousness like armor on your
chest, and your feet sandaled with readiness for the gospel of peace. In every situation take the shield of faith, and with
it you will be able to extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of
the Spirit, which is God’s Word.”
