How Do I Put on the Armor of God?

So what is the process you're the one doing the talking, if you know what you're talking about then you can certainly tell me what is the process of it.

Thanks I can try.

I would offer. The washing of the word of God is the cleansing power, The born again power needed for salvation. The washing of all the doctrines of the Holy Spirit.

Using water in many forms rain, dew, small rain, showers, spit, sweat to represent newborn again growth .

Christ gives us his understanding of the washing of the word hid in a beatiful parable

Deuteronomy 32Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth.;My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass:

Same water of the word Husbands are to love their wives with (all the doctrines of Christ's as it is written)

Ephesians 5:25-27;Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

The principle of the water of the word can be seen working in action .

Christ teaching the believers how to seek the daily bread of his will called manna .meaning. What is it? which is like in. . not as I will but you Holy Father the will with power.to raise (new growth) the dying

Exodus 16:15 And when the children of Israel saw it, they said one to another, It is manna: for they wist not what it was. And Moses said unto them, This is the bread which the Lord hath given you to eat.

The cleansing power of the Holy Spirit laying itself down on the dew separated it from the corrupted earth

Numbers 11:9 And when the dew fell upon the camp in the night, the manna fell upon it.

The Holy Spirit the purifier.
 
God does not have any armor.
That's just a figment of your imagination.
Actually Wings, that's a figment of your translation.

The phrase "of God" had been translated as the Subjective Genitive, also known as a possessive.

Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.​
- Ephesians 6:11 KJV

This leads you to think that author is literally saying that God has armor.

- ενδυσασθε την πανοπλιαν του θεου

But the phrase του θεου ought to have been translated as the Objective Genitive.

= Put on the whole armour for ("concerning") God....

I provide a LINK to a summary chart for the Koine Greek Genitive Case system. (See page two.)


You're welcome,

I would think it leads mankind to think the sword of the Spirit is the word of God .

He that has no form does not need armor .

(Why do I bother...)

Hi Garee. Mankind can think that all it would like, but what they think it means is wrong. If my post (LINK HERE) is too complicated, the English phrase "the word of God" doesn't mean the Bible. The Greek word is Rhema, and this verse means that the Spirit is the Rhema of God (the understanding provided by a direct interaction with the voice of God).

The Sword of the Spirit is prayer.

But if people cannot read Greek, then they cannot understand this. And you left out the word "which." That doesn't help either - leaving out words,.

He that has no form does not need armor .
Okay.
