For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. / These evil forces are not "flesh and blood" and that they dwell "in heavenly places", he means that they are not earthly creatures with physical bodies, but rather spirit-beings that are invisible to us.
A buddy jesus post.
The church youth leader wears skinny jeans, calls the Bible "the original playlist" and asks if anyone's "vibing with Leviticus". Nobody is vibing with Leviticus. Your personal trainer winks, points and tells you burpees are "just hugs for the floor". You've never wanted to hug anything less. "Hey you! Great news!" says the email from your bank. The great news is that your overdraft fee has gone up. There's a thumbs up at the bottom. "This won't hurt a bit," says the dentist, with a cheerful wink, holding something that is clearly going to hurt a lot of bits. **Why it caught on:** it's the "Buddy Christ" statue from Kevin Smith's Dogma (1999), unveiled by Cardinal Glick for the church's "Catholicism Wow!" campaign to make the faith friendlier. A holy figure acting like your cheerful mate is very hard not to caption.
