Understanding Spiritual Warfare Quotes

“Second, this passage shows us that rarely, if ever, will Satan confront you as Satan. He will almost always approach you indirectly, disguised as someone or something more likely to win your trust (such as when Peter opposed Jesus’s going to Jerusalem in Matthew 16). He will come to you through something you hear or see, perhaps a movie; a lecture by a brilliant, articulate, but pagan professor; through a well-meaning friend; or as an angel of light. After all, if you knew it was Satan, you’d be less inclined to listen or say yes.”
