Spiritual Warfare - Armor of God

God has equipped each child of his with the protection necessary to do spiritual battle.  These can be found in Ephesians 6:10-20.  What I found remarkable is that the first three mentioned (belt, breastplate, shod feet) are presented as things already placed on us, we having been placed upon us when believing on the redemptive work of Christ.  Those that follow are implements we consciously employ in the battle.

Notes

Handout

Audio – Bryan Wolfmueller, "Stand"; Dr John Kleinig, "Sentry Duty and Prayer"

No PowerPoint for this lesson.


During my research I stumbled on several good materials dealing with this passage from the church fathers (John Chrysostom has three homilies beginning here) to D. A. Carson and John MacArthur, Jr.  There is much good, sound, free teaching on the subject.
