Having described the enemies we face, Anderson now turns to God's own battle plan — the armor of God — and shows how each piece corresponds to specific lies and vulnerabilities in spiritual warfare.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Anderson emphasizes that Ephesians 6 commands believers to 'put on' the armor of God — not to receive it passively. What is the significance of this active, intentional element in spiritual warfare? What does it say about our role in the battle?
2.Anderson walks through each piece of armor: the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit. Which piece of armor do you feel you most regularly wear — and which one do you most often neglect?
a.What specific vulnerability does the neglected piece leave you open to?
b.What would it look like to intentionally put that piece on this week?
3.Anderson highlights the 'helmet of salvation' as protection for the mind — the primary battlefield. How does a settled confidence in your salvation protect you from the enemy's attacks, and what happens when that confidence is shaken?
