We need to stand against the wiles of the devil. Today there are some very extreme teachings about “spiritual warfare” so much so that some people seem to live in a constant fight with the devil. Of course this is heretical, God promises True Believers victory over the devil. What we are to do is to stand against the wiles of the devil.
