armor of God
Divine defensive equipment
Armor of God is a Christian metaphor from the New Testament, where the apostle Paul urges believers to put on spiritual protections—truth, righteousness, faith, salvation—as a soldier dons armor for battle.
The phrase appears in discussions of spiritual warfare and moral preparation: Put on the whole armor of God to stand against temptation.
