Armor of God - Pieces of Armor

Pieces of Armor

In the Biblical text of Ephesians chapter 6, there are 6 pieces of armor: the helmet, shield, loins, feet, sword, and breastplate. These pieces have a description of what they are: helmet of salvation, shield of faith, loins girt with truth (belt of truth), feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace (peace), the sword of the spirit/word of God, and the breastplate of righteousness.

Two of those articles, the helmet of Salvation and the breastplate of Righteousness, were lifted from the book of Isaiah.
