Ephesians 6:10-18

When I look at children, at innocence, in these dark times (as all times have been since the fall), and I feel the usual pain and anxiety for their situation and their future, and I ask myself what is it that they need? And not only that, but I ask myself what is the best way to sum up completely, foundationally, concisely what it is that they need? And I answer myself that they need the armor of God. That simple. They need the armor of God. With that they have everything. They can meet everything with success with that. It includes all. They don't need church. They don't need sacraments. They can get those and never get the armor of God. They don't need worldly wealth and power for protection. They need the armor of God, pure and simple.
