Above all,
taking the shield of faith,
wherewith ye shall be able to quench
all the fiery darts of the wicked.
The fiery darts are the arrows of the wicked one. Paul says, above all, take the shield of faith, wherewith you shall be able to quench them all. The darts are fired. Faith quenches them. The shield is not a feeling. It is faith in the word God has spoken. The armour has a shield for this. The dart may be a thought, an accusation, a fear. It is quenched. It does not have to land. Above all, the shield.
