The Accuser

Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren has been thrown down, he who accuses them before our God day and night.” (Revelation 12:10)The Bible exposes Satan's devious and deceitful nature as the “father of lies” (John 8:44), cautioning that he “disguises himself as an angel of light” (2 Cor. 11:14; cf. 2 Cor. 11:3) so that he can more easily deceive people. The apostle Paul expressed his concern “that no advantage would be taken of us by Satan, for we are not ignorant of his schemes” (2 Cor. 2:11). “Put on the full armor of God,” the apostle urged the Ephesians, “so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil” (Eph. 6:11). . . .
