Secular powers are unwittingly the puppets of Satan who has deceived and continues to deceive the whole world. Our war isn't with secular governments that are ruled by men. Your directing your energy against the wrong adversary.

I am directing my energy against "imaginations and thoughts" that need to be cast down, including this idea that would have the church worrying about invisible spooks behind every bush while your children are taught Babylonian perversions and how to apostasize when they hit 18.
Who was Jesus constantly "wrestling" with? Demons? Or rabbis and scribes? Who kept throwing Peter in jail? Demons? Or devils in long robes and longer tzitzits? Who kept opposing Paul and his ministry team? Demons? Or rabbins and Romans, priests of Judea and priests of Ephesus?
The conflict is outlined in
Dan 2, no fallen angel daevas required.
