1 Thess 5:8

“But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet.”
1 Thessalonians 5:8 NIV

Faith, love and hope is the defensive armor that guards the soul.  A man whose heart and head is covered will walk unharmed by this world. He will breathe fresh air above all the chaos. 

It is only as we trust God and fix our eyes on him that we are able to activate self control and be governed by the Holy Spirit living in us.  

These 3 together (faith, hope and love)  bring true spiritual life to our souls.
