At every onslaught take up faith for your shield; for with it you will be able to extinguish all the flaming darts of the Evil One.
Let your words be simply 'Yes' or 'No'; anything beyond this comes from what is wrong.
I do not mean that we are to dictate to you with regard to your faith; on the contrary, we work with you for your true happiness; indeed, it is through your faith that you are standing firm.
Do not quench the Spirit;
But let us, who belong to the Day, control ourselves, and put on faith and love as a breast plate, and the hope of Salvation as a helmet.
