Anons I’m stickying this article just for y’all to take a read of it. X22Report always has great intel/info programs, and guests. But this article on the Main Page-starting is a worthy read into our fundamental America driving politics and media, losing its sight on our foundations and of God.
I hope you enjoy and discuss. God bless you all Anons, for Where We Go One We Go All, together.
I tend to think that this particular scripture has often been misinterpreted. It's often interpreted to mean what this is a spiritual war (which it is), but ONLY a spiritual war, and that therefore it doesn't concern what's actually going on in the world, like (in your example, Schwab, Gates, Biden, etc).
However, the scripture says "flesh and blood" on the one hand, but also emphasizes TWO opponents: one, "against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age" and two: "against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places".
Seems to me that the "principalities" etc, is referring to those elements in this world who have been ruling on the Enemy's behalf - aka they are the instruments by which the satanic forces execute their control over the world - and "spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places" is referring to those satanic spiritual forces that are actually ruling those rulers.
So, to me, this scripture is saying the war is against both the unrighteous authority here in the world, and also the spiritual forces behind it.
In my view, "flesh and blood" doesn't mean that the enemy isn't material (i.,e. of this world) but rather that, as you say, the enemy cannot be defeated simply by material (flesh and blood) means. The war is not going into the streets and fighting against the enemy using purely material means.
In other words, the scripture is telling us that we struggle against BOTH forces in this material world, AND forces in the spiritual world, but it is also pointing out that the forces in the spiritual world are in the KEY or subject position. They execute their unrighteous influence via the powers that be in this world, and that is the primary element we fight.
If we take this to think that the war is purely spiritual, I think that's wrong. It's saying we fight both against the spiritual forces AND the authorities in the world who rule over the darkness, but we also need to know which is the key or core element.
Just as we have spirit and flesh, and that the flesh is to house the spirit, and the spirit is the key element or primary subject factor, likewise, the war is BOTH in the spirit and the flesh, but the spiritual aspect of the war is what is key.
Might be a small or minor point, but I think it is worth making.
