Truth – The Single Most Important Piece of Equipment in the Believer’s Inventory
“Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.” ~ Ephesians 6:11
The most important piece of armor in the believer’s inventory is Truth.
Truth must be equipped first.
Truth is the belt to which all the rest of the armor is fastened.
Without truth, the rest of the armor is ineffective in its ability to protect the believer!
(It is also interesting to note that Truth is mentioned separately from the Word of God (the sword))

I like this. We know the Word is truth but how you interpret the Word can lead you into false beliefs. I think the Holy Spirit helps to determine the truth! Praise God!

Exactly! Isn’t it a sobering realization that using God’s word is ineffective without a correct understanding of truth?! But we have 500 years of Protestantism to prove that.
