In Efesini 6:17, we read about the fifth element of the spiritual armor of God, which is the helmet of salvation. Paul commanded to take the helmet of salvation. Che cos'è l'elmo della salvezza? What does the Bible say about the helmet of salvation? How do you take the helmet of salvation?
What does take the helmet of salvation Significare?
Stand quindi, avere i lombi cinti di verità, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Soprattutto, Prendendo lo scudo della fede, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation (Efesini 6:14-17)
Gesù Cristo, il Figlio del Dio vivente, is the only Way to God and the only Way to salvation. Jesus Christ is the Savior and Redeemer for fallen mankind. Only through Jesus Christ and by his blood man can be saved from the power of the devil and be reconciled with God. There is no other way to salvation.
For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ (Galati 3:26-27)
Quelli, who are born again by faith in Christ and have become a new creation, belong to Him and are clothed with Christ and walk in the spiritual armor of God and take the helmet of salvation.
The helmet of salvation upon His head
Sì, truth faileth; and he that departeth from evil maketh himself a prey: and the Lord saw it, and it displeased Him that there was no judgment. And He saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore His arm brought salvation unto Him; and His righteousness, it sustained Him. For He put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon His head; and He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloke (Isaia 59:15-17)
Gesù Cristo, the Son of God and the living Word, came to the earth to save (caduto) man from the power of the devil and sin and death and restore the peace between God and man (Leggi anche: ‘What kind of peace did Jesus bring on earth?‘ E ‘La pace, Jesus restored between fallen man and God.‘).
Jesus walked in the truth and righteousness of God with the helmet of salvation upon His head.
Everywhere Jesus came He preached the truth of God and brought deliverance to those, who were in need, and made the way of salvation known.
Jesus yielded to God and through His obbedienza a Dio Jesus stayed faithful to God and the devil couldn’t enter His life.
By walking after the Spirit in obedience to the will of His Father, Jesus had the helmet of salvation on His head, whereby His mind was fully protected against every deception, tentazione, and attack of the devil and his kingdom. Therefore the devil was not able to tempt Jesus to sin.
How beautiful upon the mountains are the feet of him that bringeth good tidings, that publisheth peace; that bringeth good tidings of good, that publisheth salvation; that saith unto Zion, Thy God reigneth! (Isaia 52:7)
Jesus set the example of how we, as the new creation, should walk in the truth and righteousness of God after His will and walk in the salvation of God, so that we are able to resist every attack of the devil on our mind.
Through obedience to the Word, we shall be His witnesses and preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and make the way of salvation known to those, who are still the old creation and are trapped in the lies of the devil and live in the bondage of sin and death in fear, and redeem them from the power of the devil, proprio come Gesù, who was a Witness of God and redeemed the people from the power of the devil.
The new creation takes de helmet of salvation
Ma lasciateci, che sono del giorno, sii sobrio, indossare la corazza della fede e dell'amore; and for an helmet, La speranza della salvezza. Poiché Dio non ci ha destinati all'ira, ma per ottenere la salvezza per mezzo del Signore nostro Gesù Cristo, Che è morto per noi, Quello, sia che ci svegliamo o dormiamo, dovremmo vivere insieme a Lui(1 Tessalonicesi 5:8-10)
Ma dopo ciò apparvero la benevolenza e l'amore di Dio, nostro Salvatore, verso l'uomo, Non mediante opere di giustizia che abbiamo compiuto, ma secondo la sua misericordia ci ha salvato, dal lavaggio della rigenerazione, e rinnovamento dello Spirito Santo; Che Egli ha sparso su di noi abbondantemente per mezzo di Gesù Cristo nostro Salvatore; Questo essendo giustificato dalla Sua grazia, dovremmo essere resi eredi secondo la speranza della vita eterna (Tito 3:4-7)
Salvation comes from God and no one else. No one can be saved through his own works. Therefore salvation is a gift from God, which only can be received by faith (OH. John 3:16-17, romani 5:9, Efesini 2:8-10).
Through faith in Jesus Christ and regeneration in Him, you receive the salvation of the Lord and be saved. Attraverso la rigenerazione, you become a new creation; a son of God and receive eternal life.
Although you live in the world, due to regeneration in Christ, you no longer belong to the world but the Kingdom of God, where Jesus Christ is King and Jesus Christ reigns (OH. Isaia 9:6, Daniele 7:27, John 12:13-15, John 18:36-37, Atti 2:30, Efesini 1:20-22, Colossesi 1:13-14, 1 Timoteo 1:17, 1 Timoteo 6:15, Giuda 1:25, Rivelazione 17:14, Rivelazione 19:16).
By the grace of God, you are saved by the blood of Jesus Christ and through the death of the flesh and the resurrection of the spirit from the dead.
Now that you are saved, you shall live from your salvation in Christ and your position in Him and walk after the Word and the Spirit, Who represent the will of God, so that you shall keep your salvation during your life on earth (Leggi anche: ‘Once saved, always saved?’).
Through the baptism with the Holy Spirit, you received the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit dwells in you, whereby the will of God (La sua legge) is written upon your heart.
Tuttavia, your unrenewed mind is still carnal. Therefore your mind is a hindrance and may stop you from yielding to the words and the will of God and obeying the Word and the Holy Spirit.
Therefore it’s necessary to rinnova la tua mente con la Parola di Dio, so that your mind shall no longer think like the world and relies on the flesh and the wisdom and knowledge of the world (scienza), but that your mind shall think like the Word; Jesus Christ and relies on the Spirit and the wisdom and knowledge of God, so that you have the mind of Christ and think, parlare, act and walk as Jesus thought, spoke, acted and walked on earth.
The mind determines the course in life
He that is slow to anger is better than the mighty; and he that ruleth his spirit than he that taketh a city (Proverbi 16:32)
The mind determines the course of life of man. Because every thought, every word, and every action derives from the mind. Perciò, it’s necessary to renew your mind with the truth of God, so that through the renewing of your mind with the Word and by yielding to God and His Word, everything in your life comes under the power of God and you shall think His pensieri, speak His words and His truth, and walk in the truth.
If you renew your mind with the Word of God you shall no longer be ignorant and have a lack of knowledge, but you shall possess the wisdom and knowledge of God and you shall know His will.
Attraverso la Parola, you shall find out the truth and destroy the lies and the strongholds of the devil and the kingdom of darkness in your mind. Saprai, who you are in Christ and what authority and inheritance you have received in Him. From this truth, you shall walk by faith and obedience to God and live as the new creation (Leggi anche: ‘The strongholds in the mind of people‘).
The devil’s attack on your mind
The devil will do everything he can to take your salvation and make you apostate from God and His Word. Since the devil knows the power of the mind, the devil shall shoot his arrows at you and do everything he can to find a way into your head and enter your mind and take possession of your mind.
He shall use your senses, sentimenti, emozioni, pensieri, and the words of people, to sow doubt and fear in your mind, so that you will doubt the words of God and God’s existence and you shall doubt your salvation and your sonship of God.
The devil shall keep you away from the Bible in order to keep you ignorant and he shall master your time, through distractions, cares, and the things of everyday life. He shall feed your mind through his means of entertainment (Leggi anche: ‘Lascia che ti intrattenga’).
The devil shall do everything in his power, to take possession of your mind, so that you shall believe his lies and shall live according to his lies.
He shall try everything to take the helmet of salvation from you, so that your mind doesn’t belong to Christ anymore, but to him.
Il diavolo lo sa, when he possesses your mind, he possesses your life. Since everything derives from the mind of people. The head determines the functioning of the body.
Perciò, you should always stay awake and be watchful and be careful about what you allow into your mind and what you listen to and watch.
You decide what things you spend your time on and what things you feed your mind. You decide to whom your mind belongs and you will show what is important to you and where your heart is, by the things you do.
Seek the things, which are above and not on the earth
Se dunque risorgi con Cristo, cercare quelle cose che sono in alto, dove Cristo siede alla destra di Dio. Rivolgi il tuo affetto alle cose di lassù, non sulle cose della terra. Perché sei morto, e la tua vita è nascosta con Cristo in Dio (Colossesi 3:1-3)
Come la nuova creazione, who is set apart from the world and belongs to Christ, dovresti Spogliati del vecchio E indossare l'uomo nuovo and you shall seek those things, che sono sopra, where Christ is seated at the right hand of the Father.
You shall feed and renew your mind with the Word of God, so that you shall get to know the truth and the will of God and be able to discern the lies from the truth.
You shall have the mind of Christ in which the will of God reigns.
Your mind shall belong to Jesus Christ and you shall submit to Jesus Christ; the Word and you shall live by faith after the Spirit after His will.
But if you refuse to put on the new man and keep feeding your mind with the words and the things of this world, your mind shall remain carnal and you shall think, speak and act like the world and you shall not yield to Jesus Christ; la parola.
Since a carnal mind is enmity against God, because a carnal mind shall not yield and obey the words and the will of God, but shall be prideful and shall exalt itself above God and His will (La sua legge (romani 8:5-8)).
A carnal mind belongs to the world and the ruler of this world; the devil and shall submit to the will of the devil, which reigns in the flesh through sin and death. Per questo motivo, the person shall not live in the freedom of Christ and in the peace of God, but shall live in the bondage of the kingdom of darkness and the power of the devil.
Take the helmet of salvation and keep the helmet of salvation on
Benedetto sia Dio e Padre del Signore nostro Gesù Cristo, which according to His abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.
Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: Whom having not seen, ye love; in Whom, though now ye see Him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls (1 Peter 1:3-9)
For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek (romani 1:16)
Perciò, take the helmet of salvation and keep the helmet of salvation on, by faith and by yielding to Jesus Christ; IL Author of eternal salvation.
By Jesus Christ, you are saved, and as long as you stay obedient to Jesus Christ and stay in Jesus Christ; la parola, and keep His commandments and don’t leave Him and His words during your life, you shall keep your salvation.
You shall be saved and because your feet are shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace, you shall preach the gospel of Jesus Christ and make the way of salvation known to others, because you are not ashamed of the gospel, because it’s the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believes.
