Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.
Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
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.

In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
