Heed the advice of Christ when he said resist not evil.


In the game of chess, the most powerful piece, the king, has, in fact, the most restricted mobility. 
He can only move one square at a time in any direction. But, it is not his adversary who imposes the said restrictions but the members of his own court. His very defenders impede his range of movement and action. 

The message and lesson here should be self-evident. Are we not the kings? 

Regardless of how he has misused power and freedom, the human is still regent of the Earth and the known universe?
Our commitment and resolve is contained not by an adversary (alien or other), as much as by our own ineptitude. It is our strategies, or lack of them, that hinder resolution. This is the consequence of fighting “principalities...in high places” without the correct discernment.

Perhaps, we should heed the advice of Christ when he said resist not evil.
