11 Put on the whole aarmour of God... that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.12 For we awrestle not bagainst cflesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the drulers of the edarkness of this world, against spiritual fwickedness in high places.
13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
14 Stand therefore, having your loins agirt about with btruth, and having on the cbreastplate of drighteousness;
15 And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of apeace;
16 Above all, taking the shield of afaith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery bdarts of the wicked.
17 And take the helmet of asalvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God
Written from Rome unto the Ephesians by Tychicus.
In Texas we... raise 'em up right--

I believe that Miss Thatcher did not choose the reading.
It is my understanding that that passage is always the Epistle reading for members of the Order of the Garter.

She is most definitely not guilty. And that is a brilliant choice of Scripture. I don’t know if Mrs. Thatcher was saved—I hope so—but the image of the Iron Lady in metaphysical armor and sword is a pretty powerful one.

Thank you for the YouTube link. What sand this grand-daughter of the Iron Lady had, to stand in front of that audience of people representing what has become perhaps one of the most pagan nations on the face of Earth, and remind them of Paul, in St. Paul's, and his important, seminal letter to the Church at Ephesus.
God bless her, God rest Margaret Thatcher, and God bless their gracious Queen.
Makes me want to break out in a chorus of God Bless America...

Baronness Thatcher was warning us. Pretty clear who she saw as the enemy.

Brings to mind Hebrews 4:12.
Amanda let’s God divide bone and marrow according to His Word. He who has ears, let him hear!

Sorry, I did not get that response. May be that Obozo’s minions are already doing interference for him.

does anyone have a clip of the statement made by the druid who performed the funeral? I understand he was snarkey.

Same thing here. Would have liked to read the story but not THAT much. Will just read commentary here.
