The next piece of armor the knight would put on would be a mail skirt. And it is just what it sounds like. A little skirt made from chain mail. It would go around the waist to protect the groin, and it was mail so that it would be easier to bend, move, and sit.

I will refer to this as the belt of truth, but there is more than just the skirt that would be considered the belt of truth. There are also the outer straps that the knight would put on. One to hold his breast plates together, and the other to hold his weapons.

Stand firm then, with the belt of truth buckled around your waist, with the breastplate of righteousness in place,

-Ephesians 6:14

Truth has been all but forgotten in our day and age. This world thinks that truth is in the eyes of the beholder. They say that truth is subject. “What you may think as true, may not be true for me.” Well I’m here to say that is totally bunk. There is and has always been a constant truth, and that my friends is Jesus Christ. 

Noticed that even your sword (His Word) hangs on the Belt of Truth. You must look at it in that way. People can always manipulate the bible to say what they want it to say, but when looked at through the truth (that is God and His will) the bible is very clear on the things that matter.

Here’s the point. Truth is not subjective, and it is not passive eaither. You must live by the truth and seek the truth.

Don’t go into battle with your pants down.
