We are human, but we don't wage war as humans do. We use God's mighty weapons, not worldly weapons, to knock down the strongholds of human reasoning and to destroy false arguments.
2 Corinthians 10:3-4
Paul describes strongholds as ideas.
What are some of those ideas?
That some people groups are better than others, their lives are more important.
That the way some people see the world, is inferior.
That people's worth can be measured by their money or their social media profile.
That my country is right.
That I'm right.
Here's another idea from Rabbi Jonathan Sacks;
"Can I see the trace of God on the face of a stranger,
in the face of one whose color is not like mine,
whose culture is not like mine?
Can I see God's image
in one
who is not
in my image?"
What are God's mighty weapons?
Love.
