For We Wrestle Not Against Flesh and Blood but Against Spiritual Wickedness in High Places

Many of you will have read this verse of Holy Scripture before and probably many times and here it is in full:

Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

The thing is, have you ever stopped and considered where these high places are or who these rulers of the darkness of this world are? I have sat in front of 'minister' in the past who have literally explained these verses away by teaching that this Applies to verse unseen demonic spiritual forces and powers only, and not evil human forces and powers. You see there, is a preponderance of thought in mainstream Christianity, especially within the Anglican Church, thinks that the sun shines out of you know where when it comes to the men and women of secular governance or when talking about their, and our, political 'masters'. They seem to have a chummy sort of sycophantic relationship with them or, at least, a hands-off relationship when it comes to being critical of the way these people are 'governing' us. From this political perspective, morally and spiritually, it's "anything goes" and any new policy, it seems, can be written into the statute books and the Anglican Church hardly utters a word or whispers against anything they do or say. This means, by default, it gives off at breathtaking air of complicity and / or indifference to what these political traitors and criminals are doing. Then they wonder why their pews and church buildings are continually empty.

OK, so if we analyze more closely Ephesians 6:12 what do you think we will find? God's blessing on mainstream Christian teaching on this Particular verse or a stiff rebuttal and rebuke? I know where I would place my bet if I were a gambler, so without further ado let's concordance one or two words and see what we can find. First we will look at the opening remark:

"For we wrestle not against flesh and blood," now what does this phrase mean when taken in context with the words that follow it? Nothing, they do not mean a thing, for they belong in the previous verse. We must always remember that it was the translators of the King James Bible that the Holy Bible divided into chapters and verses. In its original form it flowed in a continuum without any breaks or divisions. So lets add in the previous verse:

Eph 6:11 Put on the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil …. Now add in: Not For we wrestle against flesh and blood.

Can you now see how that makes much more sense? We wrestle against The Adversary – Satan the Devil and he is definitely not flesh and blood, he is a spirit being so, obviously, we are definitely not wrestling against flesh and blood! Now all I've done here is move the first part of Ephesians 6:12 and added it to the end of verse 11, so this is not a change of what has been written, so Eph 6:12 now reads:

"And against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."

This means that not only do we wrestle against Satan the Devil but then again other things and / or people. The word 'but' in the original rendering I have changed to 'and' for the Greek word 'alla' can be 'but' 'yet' or 'and'. Ephesians 6:12 Sun has now changed slightly and, as I said, we now have another dimension and in addition to the things we are up against, and that is why it is so fallacious to teach this passage of Holy Scripture as Alluding to a spiritual enemy only. We must understand, too, that Satan has his human "helpers" here on this earth and he always has, for many are his seed – The Tares. Dear people, this is deception on a grand scale, for without the understanding, I will now give you, certain activities by our political 'masters' now, and in the future, will catch you unawares or take you by surprise. We have to learn to be as wise as serpents and as harmless as doves yet remain and be on our guard:

Matt 10:16 Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the Midst of wolves: be ye wise as serpents Therefore, and harmless as doves.

This means we should not be naïve, gullible, dumb push-overs or drop our guard through ignorance to make ourselves as easy pickings for our enemies. We are not meant to be ducks in a shooting gallery!

Right, back to the verse in question: so not only are we against the Devil himself, but we are now against "principalities" and "powers" and as if that were not enough we've also got "rulers of the darkness of this world "to contend with. Then to cap it all we have spiritual wickedness in high places. So who or what are these things we're up against? Easy, your very own leaders, the very people you 'elect' into office, that's if you are silly and deluded enough to vote of course. Now do not be shocked by this information, for it's all prophesied in The Holy Scriptures. Watch out for my article coming soon: "Is Britain, Her Commonwealth and the United States of America Going into Captivity as Prophesied?

Again, back to the thread, and first up is this word 'principalities' and to help us with its meaning let's look at Strong's Concordance where it reads:

Principalities: G746 Ark? ar-Khay '

From G756; (properly abstract) a commencement, or (concrete) chief (in various applications of order, time, place or rank): – beginning, corner, (at the, the) first (estate), magistrate, power, principality , principle, rule.

So have a hierarchical power structure that has lasted through time and it commenced or its adversarial nature here we began in Babylon, but came into its current guise in the first century, and it had and does Consist of positions of differing ranks with power to rule this earth in different principalities or places. Now this has nothing to do with the spirit realm on its own, but of course they are involved. This is describing a worldly system of men in positions of power both spiritual and temporal or religious and political, and that leads us to the next word -. Powers So, let's scrutinise these 'powers' that seem to compliment the preceding principalities?

Powers: G1849 exousia ex-oo-ah-see '

From G1832 (in the sense of ability); privilege, that is, (subjectively) force, capacity, competency, freedom, or (Objectively) mastery (magistrate concretely, super human, Potentate token of control), delegated influence: – authority, jurisdiction, liberty, power, right, strength.

Now this word 'powers' is even more revealing than the word 'principalities' and look at what we have: Men of privilege with force or the capacity to be and, notice, masterful, competent and super human no less. These men hold powerful positions via the privileges bestowed upon them, and boy are these guys going to be something, if we speak or present tense, are already really something now in the year 2010. They are men and / or women of privilege Which means some of them were born into their wealth or inherited their positions of power and influence on the world stage through bloodlines and dynasties. These boys are even super-human, how can they be such a thing and how will we identify their super human attributes? Easy, they will be untouchable even when scandal (excrement) hits the fan. Where ordinary folks would be forced to take responsibility for their actions and bad conduct and resign in disgrace, these boys will be fireproof and carry on as if nothing has happened. One Western leader was recently given the name Teflon by the people he governed to emphasis his untouchable persona. The fact that he is a war criminal guilty of genocide is just by the by.

Moreover, from Strong's definitions we can see they will be very Competent and they will have the freedom to exercise that autonomy or competency, but competency and freedom to do what? Why, to lie, deceive, control, dominate and manipulate the masses, even the whole population of the world. How will they and how do they control, dominate and manipulate the masses? Easy, by being the puppets and servants of The Whore in Rome and those controlling the world's money supply, otherwise known as the International Banking Cartel or Conspiracy. These men between them control everything through their hold over the global banking and global markets with their co-conspirators, the heads of the global corporations and media giants. They work through a system of bribery and corruption from within or in the background or as Holy Scripture describes it – darkness. In The majority of ordinary people in the western world are not even aware of their existence, or of the secret societies that they are members of. These organizations, often financed by The International Banking Cartel, are where they get together in secret, quite frequently, to exchange views and ideas as to how they may further their interests and master plan of The New World Order or One World Government. I Will Provide a list of these secret societies below and the better known organizations that are infiltrated by those who are members of these secret societies.

However, before we do that let's have a look at Strong's again for a better understanding of what this word 'darkness' really means and to what and to whom it is referring:

Darkness: G4655 Skotos skot'-os

From the base of G4639; shadiness, that is, obscurity (literally or figuratively): – darkness.

OK, how revealing is that? These guys are shady characters and in the British London cockney vernacular we would call them "dodgy geezers," that is, corrupt people you would not trust any further than the distance you could throw them. These are people who would betray their own mothers if it gave them a reward, or as my dad used to say "They would take the salt out of a widow's tears". This is the level of despicable character we are dealing with here. Notice, too, their haunts, just like evil villains, mafia gangsters and mobsters or hardened criminals, they are shady and obscure, so they live and hide the background of a netherworld of darkness and not only in that they rule from this background of darkness . This means they inhabit the realms of the Devil in a spiritual sense and many of them literally are Satanists.

As stated already, these people are members of secret societies, secret societies that practice Satanic rituals when they meet and they both subliminally promote Satanic symbols and publicly. One of their favorite signs is the raised index finger raised along with the little finger representing the horns on the Devil's head. Here too, are some of the names of these secret societies: The Jesuits (The Vatican's Gestapo or KGB) with their Black Pope, Opus Dei, The treacherous communist Marxoid Fabian Whose emblem is a wolf is sheep's clothing; Scottish Rite Freemasonry, especially their hierarchy – the 33rd Degree Masons and those even higher within; Bohemian Grove in California with its large image of an owl (the pagan god Molech) To which burnt sacrifices are offered; The Illuminati with its mafia connections and P2 Freemasonry, Skull & Bones, Of which both ex-presidents Bush and John Kerry are members; The Bilderbergers with Michael Heseltine and his buddy Ken Clarke, Malcolm Rifkind and the Marxist Communist Denis Healey, The Trilateral Commission with Obama and Gordon Brown, The Council on Foreign Relations run by the Rockefellers, The Pilgrim Society, The Round Table and The Club of Rome.

Now you could say what a British daily newspaper said to me when I phoned them and asked why they were not giving any coverage or back up reporting to a Channel 4 TV programs that exposed Bohemian Grove in California. Here was a meeting of heads of global corporations, bankers, high level politicians, high ranking military personnel, even presidents of the USA, you name 'em they were there, and they meet secretly like this every year – WHY? Now what do you think this daily newspaper's reply to my question what? "Oh they're just a bunch of silly old Duffers playing around in the woods, just leave them alone because what they're doing is not important – it's an irrelevance -. Go get a life" Now this answer apart from their arrogant and ignorant rudeness reveals some very important issues: 1) Whenever there is a G8 summit it always attracts massive media attention from all over the world so why not when many similar influential people (all males I might add) are gathering secretly in some Californian woods to play boy scouts! It's got to have weirdo value if nothing else! 2) Notice, they did not try to deny it in any way or as sensationalist TV programs making but, rather, tried to play it down as to insignificant event, so this means the opposite is The Truth. 3) Why did a major newspaper outlet behave in this peculiar way? Rest assured whenever high ranking influential people gather together for whatever reason, they are doing it for a reason!

Indeed, and so it is with another of these little secret clubs – The Bilderbergers who then meet once a year and of course had I mentioned this little coven to that same newspaper they would have said similar words even though Mr Bill Clinton's attendance took place shortly before he became a presidential candidate – not important eh? Then we had not Mr Tony Blair's attendance shortly before he became leader of the Labour party and that would have been important either. You might also like to know that media moguls and newspaper tycoons are so frequent attendees of these secret Bilderberg meetings – Rupert Murdoch in particular. All very cozy, and just to make sure you read all the 'right things' in their newspapers, hear all the 'right things' on your TV and radio, and of course on Google News, etc etc.

Now here are the better known organizations that these hidden men of darkness have influence over: The White House, Congress and The Senate Buckingham Palace, Whitehall, Westminster, NATO, The UN, The EU, NAFTA, the World Bank, The International Monetary Fund , WHO and so it goes, on and on and on and if you had any doubts about this conspiracy just get a load of this from one of their puppets of the past:

When he was president of the United States, Franklin D. Roosevelt stated, and I quote:

"In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, it was planned that way."

Now within that statement we can include The French Revolution, The British wars with France and The United States in 1812, The American Civil War, World War 1, The Russian Bolshevik Revolution, The deliberate creation of an environment of extreme hardship in Germany that brought Hitler to power, (A British asset groomed by the Tavistock Institute shortly after WW1). The systematic dismantling and destruction of The British Empire, World War 2, The Cold War, The Korean War, Vietnam, The end of white rule in Africa, The Gulf War, the current mythical war on terror, the communist New World Order coming soon – One World Government out of the chaos they are currently causing deliberately. Look folks, we need to understand that President Roosevelt's words cover all the above events and when I say all I mean all, even the treachery of the events at Pearl Harbour in 1941 when President Roosevelt and Prime Minister Churchill knew about Japan's attack well before the event. This is the reality, the reality that they were all orchestrated and planned events by powerful wealthy men in darkness or were the actions of men involving satanic spiritual wickedness in high places.

All these events made the conspirators and Perpetrators very wealthy indeed pay as their financial masters always backed and financed both sides.

Is Easter a Christian festival?

Well, is it? Do you really know for sure or do you just blindly follow the traditions of men, the men of the Judeo-Christian religion-Cainite? Paul warned us about these people and told us to have nothing to do with them: Col 2:8 (KJV) Beware read any one spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. Are you still looking forward to Easter, I hope not, and after a read of my article you should not be.
