Description
The shield of Faith - I want to call your attention to this one piece of
the armor carried by the blood bought. The shield that Paul had in mind here is
not the small, round dish looking thing, but the oblong, door-like shield,
measuring 4' x 2 ', curved to the shape of the body and carried by the Greek and
Roman soldiers. When joined together, these large shields formed a wall behind
which a body of troops could hide themselves from the rain of the enemy's
missiles.
These military shields were made of wood, covered on the out side with thick
leather, which not only deadened the shock of the missile, but protected the
frame of the shield from the fire-tipped darts used in the artillery of the
ancients. Contrary to popular teaching, faith is not mental delusion,
behavior replacement or presumption and it is not evidenced by
self-bolstering surface sucess, but a work of the Holy Spirit from the
inside out. Roots to fruits.EPH
6:16 (KJV) "Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be
able to quench all the fiery darts of the
wicked." Rom 10:17 (NIV) Faith comes by hearing
the message, and the message is heard through the word of
Christ.
