World's pollution
Ephesians 6:12 New English Translation (NET Bible)
12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavens.
Looking around in a world so confused
in marvel, I just wonder.
Why is it that when things go wrong
responsibility belongs up yonder?
In Russia, Baghdad or Iran
where hatred rules my heart and yours.
Still, we don’t sense where we’ve been
surely not searching for the “Truth”?
In the realm of dark and shady grey
We sat back for a free ride.
We re seldom wrong when we judge the lot
the “ones” on Satan’s side.
Amazing so as we justify the flow
of our perpetual inclusive onslaught
of the guilty and the innocent
for reasons without a root-cause.
We live in a nation “ruled by God”
the “god” of this world that is.
There is no denying as we slowly fry
our conscience to a crisp.
