# put on faith and love as a breastplate
"protect ourselves with faith and love" or "protect ourselves by trusting Christ and loving him"
As a soldier would put on a breastplate to protect his body, a believer who lives by faith and love will find protection. Alternate translation: "protect ourselves with faith and love" or "protect ourselves by trusting Christ and loving him”
# the hope of salvation for our helmet
"protect ourselves by being certain that Christ will save us"
