   Did you know there is something sinister in the "air"?
   
   What could be more sinister than than air pollution, drones, satellites spying on us and the like?
   The Bible speaks about an "air" or type of moral and spiritual that is more dangerous and deadlier than all the above vices could ever be. Ephesians 2:1,2 says: "FURTHERMORE, GOD MADE YOU ALIVE, THOUGH YOU WERE DEAD IN YOUR TRESPASSES AND SINS, in which you walked according to this system of things of the world, according to the RULER (Satan) of the authority of the "air", the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience. " This deadly "air" rules those alienated from God (2 Tim 3:1-5)

   Moral and spiritual pollution and decay engulfs the world of mankind alienated from God's will and purpose. The atmosphere or dominant influence in the world strongly encourages unsuspecting ones to go against God's standards

      As servants of God we have to make sure  that the "air" of this wicked world doesn't effect spiritually and morally. We have to think, do, and speak in a way that pleases God from His standpoint. Staying focused spiritually is a must.

   You express this very good snap ! Yes I also notice the sad atmosphere of racial tention, fellow feeling lacking ,
   Selfishness,  and violence in the company of just unknown humans.
   If you greet a person , they may just ignore you, if you open the door being kind they just take kind jester for granted.  If you try to be friendly and something nice , you may get a negative unkind reply. Also the world is full of bullies , even HP has it own , but you have to remember gold is always solid gold , until it's mixed , let's always keep our gifts and good values the world needs good examples why change to an ugly side of missery.
   Thanks for your wonderful thought out question Snap !

      You're welcome K&T. The WT for this Sun  mentions how most people don't even know what sin is & so they see no need to change. Sad. That's why its so vital to share the immediate and future benefits of Christ RS to others. God's undeserved ki

   Let me tell ALL what is "SAD," not giving what SCRIPTURE SAYS about "sinister air!"  We MUST stay away from what WE "think" but rather go to what GOD SAID! II Peter 1:3 says "According as his divine power hath given unto us ALL THINGS that PERTAIN TO LIFE and GODLINESS, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue."  So you see?  EVERYTHING one needs to know "pertaining to life and godliness" is in HIS WORD and we don't have to "second guess" or "form OUR opinion" about "life and/or godliness!"
   
   Paul said (Jesus; the Holy Spirit speaking through him!) in Ephesians 6:10-19 "Finally my brethren, be STRONG in the LORD, and in the POWER of HIS might. Put on the WHOLE armor 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.  Wherefore take unto you the WHOLE ARMOR OF GOD, that ye may be able to WITHSTAND in the EVIL DAY (NOW), and HAVING DONE ALL, "STAND!"  Did you hear that?  It didn't say "delete" and "run" like a "COWARD" but "STAND!"  (v14) "STAND therefore, having your lions girt about with TRUTH, and having on the breastplate of RIGHTEOUSNESS; And your feet shod with the preparation of the GOSPEL of PEACE (Not man's "peace" but a conclusion ("revelation") of TRUTH which is GOD'S "PEACE!"); ABOVE ALL, taking the shield of FAITH, wherewith YE SHALL BE ABLE TO "QUENCH THE FIERY DARTS OF THE WICKED."  "And take the helmet of SALVATION, and the sword of the Spirit, WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD.  Praying ALWAYS with prayer and supplication "IN THE SPIRIT," and WATCHING thereunto with ALL perseverance and supplication for ALL "SAINTS;" And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may OPEN MY MOUTH "BOLDLY," to make known the MYSTERY OF THE GOSPEL, For which I AM an AMBASSADOR in BONDS: that therein I may SPEAK "BOLDLY," AS I OUGHT TO SPEAK!"  Amen!
   
   Therefore SINISTER AIR has LOST, "IF" one is "IN" CHRIST JESUS for HE RULES!
   
   Blessings
