More people it seems today question the idea of a real literal active devil, but Scripture is very clear in reminding us that Satan is real, and his goal is to draw people away from God, to thwart His purposes, and to cause division, and create discontentment. The devil is always ready to interject his ideas into our minds and lead us astray by convincing us that there will be no consequences for our sin. All you have to do is look around and you will see a world that seemingly does not believe that there will be any consequences for their lifestyles and their choices.
