Gear Up!: Putting On The Whole Armor of God (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798823060660)

There have been many accomplished Biblical scholars who have written books on the whole armor of God from Ephesians chapter six. They understand the original Greek language of the New Testament, the culture of the first century, and the other writings of the Apostle Paul. However, these scholars only have one side of the equation, because ... ... they've never picked up an authentic sword and held it in their hand. They've never stood in a battle line with a thousand fellow combatants and braced for the charge of a thousand other opponents bearing down on them. They've never felt the sweat trickle down their back wearing 40 pounds of full plate armor on a midsummer afternoon or groaned from having worn that same armor for 14 hours straight. They've never felt their teeth crack from receiving a blow by a sword or axe on their shield or that same plate armor. They've never experienced the confusion and cacophony of an ancient battlefield where you have to look your opponent in the eye as you engage him in hand-to-hand combat. What does all this have to do with Ephesians chapter six? Everything. Until you can understand the nature of ancient arms and armor and the type of warfare soldiers in the first century experienced, you cannot understand the nature of spiritual warfare as described by the Apostle Paul. Peter Fuller has spent a lifetime studying, researching, making and wearing all forms of ancient and medieval armor. He has had tenure at a museum with a major arms and armor collection where he curated that collection. He is also a Bible college graduate (magna cum laude) and has written and taught extensively on theology and the Bible. In this book he brings together the two elements-the practical and the academic-into one comprehensive presentation, the likes of which you have never read before. In our modern age where the devil and his hordes are becoming more prevalent, more powerful and more influential, you need to prepare yourself for his onslaught. This book will equip you to engage with the enemy of our souls and be confident of victory.
