Full Armour of YHWH

Introduction

In this study I want to take a look at 'the whole armour of God' presented to us in the letter the apostle Paul wrote to the church of Ephesus. I want to look at all aspects and applicability, especially pertaining to spiritual warfare. There will probably be a heavy emphasis on context and the meaning of words.

Disclaimer

The intent of this study is not to go in depth on Pauline writings, but I do want to look at the full context of the contents of the epistle (formal letter 1)) to the Ephesians.

When you research this letter online you come across a lot of questions, like if Paul was the true author of the letter and if the intended recipients were the church at Ephesus. After some research into this I feel that adding this information to this study is beyond it's scope, and I feel like it wouldn't add much to the study of the contents of the letter itself. So I will continue this study with the assumption that the letter is truthful in the things it says. If at a later time I decide to continue the study into the history, intention and author of the letter this will be added and or referred to in this study.
