TRUTH Ephesians 6:13-17 Part 2 of 2

Therefore put on the full armor of God, so that when the day of evil comes, you may be able to stand your ground, and after you have done everything, to stand. Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place, and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one. Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God

In addition to all this, take up the shield of faith 
1 John 5:4  ... for everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.

with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one 
Matthew 5:37  "All you need to say is simply 'Yes' or 'No'; anything beyond this comes from the evil one." 
2 Thessalonians 3:3  But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one. 

Take the helmet of salvation 
Isaiah 59:17  He put on righteousness as his breastplate, and the helmet of salvation on his head; he put on garments of vengeance and wrapped himself in zeal as in a cloak.

and the sword of the Spirit 
Isaiah 49:2  He made my mouth like a sharpened sword, in the shadow of his hand he hid me; he made me into a polished arrow and concealed me in his quiver. 

which is the word of God 
Hebrews 4:12  For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.
