Gregory A. Boyd Quotes
Paul ... Informs Us That "our Struggle Is Not Against Flesh And Blood, But Against The Rulers, Against The Authorities, Against The Powers Of This Dark World And Against The Spiritual Forces Of Evil In The Heavenly Realms." From A Kingdom Perspective, If It's Got "flesh And Blood" - If It's Human - It's Not Our Enemy. To The Contrary, If It's Got "flesh And Blood" It's Someone We're Commanded To Love And Thus Someone We're To Be Fighting For - Even If They Regard Us As Their Enemy.
We May Profoundly Disagree With Their Political, Ethical, And Religious Views. We May Find Their Lifestyle Disgusting. They May In Fact Be Criminals That Need To Be Locked Up Behind Bars. They May Threaten Us And Our Nation. Still, From A Kingdom Perspective, Our Struggle Is Never Against Other Humans. Our Struggle Is Rather For Them And Against The Evil That Works To Oppress Both Them And Us.
