Paul's closing desire is for the saints at Ephesus to live in Peace with each other while walking in Love with Faith, and adorned with Grace. In order to do this the saints need the Wisdom of God in order to live a life of Good Works.
Just as the Christian soldier must clothe himself in the whole armor of God, he must also clothe himself in prayer. What is prayer? And how should the Christian soldier pray? Pastor Duncan encourages us to speak to God about grace to help us persevere in the fight and to speak boldly about the gospel of Christ.
The only weapon the Christian soldier has is the sword of the Spirit, or the Word of God. Pastor Duncan encourages soldiers of Christ to read the Bible, study the Bible, memorize the Bible and meditate upon the Bible in order to have an effective, two-edged sword to fight against the Devil.
As soldiers of Christ we must put on a thorough, Biblical understanding of Salvation. Pastor Duncan explains the proper understanding of salvation, from the first chapter of Ephesians, and encourages soldiers of Christ to put on this understanding of salvation every day.
We should strive to live a life of wisdom by redeeming the time as wise people and discerning what God's will is especially in the evil days, instead of squandering our time as fools on sinful passions.
