And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace

When we take on the whole armor of God, we are to have our “feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;” (Ephesians 6:15).

Paul declared the gospel:

"Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand; by which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.

“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; and that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:" - 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 KJV

The gospel is called the “gospel of peace” because by Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection Jesus made peace between Himself and man. (Colossians 1:20).

"To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them..." - 2 Corinthians 5:19 KJV

We are to have our feet shod with the PREPARATION of the gospel of peace.

Our preparation of the gospel of peace is by:

Repentance is death to sin. Water baptism in the name of Jesus is burial of old nature. Holy Ghost infilling is resurrection to new life. (Romans 6:1-11, Acts 2:38).

As Paul said in 1 Corinthians 15:1, we STAND in the gospel. Having the preparation of the gospel of peace on our feet is absolutely necessary for us to “STAND against the wiles of the devil,” and to “be able to WITHSTAND in the evil day, and having done all, to STAND.” (My caps).

The Bible speaks of the FEET of those that preach the GOSPEL OF PEACE.

As it is written,

"…How beautiful are the feet of them that preach the gospel of peace, and bring glad tidings of good things!" - Romans 10:15b KJV (See also: Isaiah 52:7).

Jesus reconciled the world unto Himself, and then gave us the message of the gospel of peace and reconciliation to share with others.

"…And hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation. Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God." - 2 Corinthians 5:19b-20 KJV [“word” of reconciliation: preaching the salvation obtained through Christ – Thayer’s Greek Lexicon.]
