ALL GOD'S ARMOR

This text is taken from Ephesians 6:10-18 ........................

10.  Finally, my brethern, be strong in the Lord, and in the power 
     of his might.

     strong:  the Greek word "Endunamoo" which means to make strong
             and vigourous.  "En " = denotes the idea of rest and
             "dunamoo" = (inherent) power.
           
     power:   "Kratos" = force, strength, more especially manifested
               power and/or dominion.

     might:   "Ischus" = strength, especially endowed power. 

     We are to be mighty, powerfull, and strong as we rest in the 
     endowed power of the Holy Spirit as it is manifested.

11.  Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand   
     against the wiles of the devil.

     wiles:    "Methododeia" = the following or pursuing of orderly
               and technical procedure in the handling of a subject.

12.  For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against 
     principalities, against powers, against the rulers of darkness
     of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

     Principalities, powers, and rulers refers to Satan's kingdoms
     and spiritual wickedness (poneria) refers to malicious persons 
     that expresses malice and affects others.

13.  Wherefor take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye 
     may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done
     all, to stand.

14.  Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth,
     and having on the breastplate of righteousness.
 
     Truth:  "Aletheia" = the unveiled reality at the basis of
             and agreeing with an appearance; the manifested,
             the veritable essence of matter.

     Righteousness:  "Dikaiosune" = the essence of conformity with 
                      the claims of God, the standards of God, right
                      standing with God. 

15.  And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;

     We must be thoroughly versed and rooted and grounded in the Word
     of God, not only in head knowledge, but also heart knowledge.

16.  Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be
     able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.

17.  And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit,
     which is the Word of God:

18.  Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, 
     and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication
     for all saints.
