Armor of God

It's getting very hard to listen to radio or youtube "pastors" embellish what the bible says to fit their own agenda - usually to gain viewers by making them believe that "pastor" really knows their bible.

One teacher last week claimed "we can shame satan back to hell"  REALLY?  satan has never been to hell (yet) and believing we can shame him is a little ludicrous.

This post will be about the armor of God.  The past couple of weeks I have heard radio "pastors" state 'the armor of God is physical and because there is no armor on the backside, it means that we are to be on the offense not the defense" meaning we are to fight physical battles for Yahweh.  This is the demonic domionism / kingdom now heresy that claims Christians are to make the world "good enough" for "Jesus to return again".  I'm not sure where this person got that from but it certainly was not from the bible.

Ephesians 6
12  For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness 13  Wherefore 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;
15  And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
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;

First, believers are COMMANDED to wear our armor in order to defend against wolves and false teachings.  We are not to let the wolves attack and devour the sheep - we are to defend the true brothers and sisters in Yeshua from the evildoers and false teachers. 

Some teach we are to fellowship with the wolves and allow any false teacher in that names the name of Jesus / Yeshua.  The belt of truth is the truth of what Yahweh has said.  We are to keep out the false and defend the truth.

Breastplate of righteousness.  We are to be righteous and live a holy life which is only possible through the Holy Spirit which dwells within us when we choose to follow Yeshua as our Messiah (Lord and Savior)

Our feet are to be shod with the gospel of peace - that Yeshua gives us peace when we follow Him and His Spirit dwells within us.  Only those that truly belong to Yeshua has the peace of Him that dwells within.  False "christians" who only want fire insurance do not have this peace and they fight against those of us that do.

The fiery darts of the enemy are quenched when they are absorbed / deflected by our shield of faith.  The evildoers that lie about you will not prevail when we have faith.

The helmet of salvation because without salvation, the rest of our armor will fail as Goliath's armor failed when King David slew him with a stone.

We are to be well armed with a sword which is the bible - Yahweh's word.  Like Messiah will slay those fighting against Him at the battle of Armageddon with a word - the sword from His mouth - we are to know and use Yahweh's word to defend against heretics and wolves.

We are to pray for our fellow brothers and sisters - the TRUE brothers and sisters so that their armor will be strong and they will be strengthened in their faith some even to martyrdom.

Time is extremely short.  The time of deception is at hand and people are being deceived.  The only way to keep from being deceived is to follow Yeshua and read His word - and know His word was not changed by the "mandela effect" and can be trusted.  The Holy Spirit will show you the truth if you are truly follow Yeshua and accept Him as the Messiah --- that He was born of a virgin, is fully God and fully man, lived a sinless life, died to atone for the sins of the world, and rose again three days later to show He is the unblemished Lamb of God that was provided as a substitute for sin, and will bodily return again with His bride to rule for 1,000 years at the end of the tribulation.
