INTRODUCTION
The Whole Armor of God
Ephesians 6:10-24
Introduction
In this letter, Paul explained the need for unity
in the body of believers; here he further
explained the need for that unity—there will
be inevitable clashes with evil, and the church
must be ready to stand and fight.
In the Christian life, we battle against rulers
and authorities (the powerful evil forces of
fallen angels headed by Satan, who is a vicious
fighter, see
1 Peter 5:8).

To withstand their attacks, we must depend
on God’s strength and use every piece of his
armor.
Paul was not only giving this counsel to the
church, the body of Christ, but to all
individuals within the church.
The whole body needs to be armed.

Paul’s Final Greetings
Paul closed this letter to the Ephesians and the
surrounding churches by sending greetings from
Rome and the Christians there.
The Roman Christians and the Ephesian
Christians were brothers and sisters because of
their unity in Christ.
Believers today are also linked to others across
cultural, economic, and social barriers.
All believers are one family in Christ Jesus.
