The Christian Armor is a Putting on of Christ

We have been enlisted as soldier in th army of The Lord of Host, to fight a battle to help establish the Kingdom of God. He gives us spiritual armor to fight this battle with, God being our rereward. The battle is the Lord, we pray to Him to clothe us with Christ righteousness, which in it's imputation justifys us. We are not fighting with carnal weapons, but those that are mighty through God.
