Rules of Engagement
The first thing that must be considered in any War is if there is any right to even have a War at all. Most Wars between elohim taking place on the earth center around the concerns of men. This may take the form of intervention and influence in the lives of or direct actions of men. Alternatively, such Wars might involve boundaries and Dominions created because of the actions of men. Whatever the root concern, however, elohim understand and generally respect when there is clearly no right or reason to influence or interfere in a situation.
While it is true that unholy elohim are in rebellion to the Most High, they know that they are still subject to his authority and there are lines even they will not cross for fear of the consequences.
Unholy elohim do not generally have to search hard to find cause to interfere with men. Men are quite prolific sinners, giving them right to oppress and attack them. This claim of sin is pervasive throughout the earth and many children of the Most High do not stand in their authority against attack like they should. Holy elohim, on the other hand, rely upon the Most High's faithful followers to pray. Their prayers and petitions encourage the Most High to sanction interference by elohim to defend his people or attack unholy Dominions. Prayers, faithful obedience, and (after the Reconciliation) application of the shed blood of the resurrected Son all give holy elohim right to interfere for the cause of good.
Without sufficient right to become involved, there are times and situations when fallen elohim or holy elohim will have to remain hands off.
