Very well written with good quotes and explanations. We constantly must be aware of Satan's tactics to keep us from staying on the covenant path. We have much greater power than he has because we have Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ on our side. Satan will never win.

This is such a timely article, that it should be read by all people -- not just members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints! It a person doesn't believe in the power and intentions of Satan, they can't even believe the truths in the Temple Ceremony! It is basic, and something we fought for in our pre-existence life! Thank you for writing this!

Well done. Thanks for the many references to talks and scripture. Surely, the Book of Mormon is the most powerful "witness' of Satan and lists many of his traps, snares, false arguments etc. I am grateful for the inclusion of the anti-christs, Korihor, Nehor and Sherem for instance, and the recounting of their false philosophies, so that they can be identified and avoided. He never has anyone best's interests at heart and will abandon any who follow him.

An excellent explanation of why we must understand Satan so we can be successful in becoming who we must be to live with Father eternally. Thank you very much!

I renege clearly the day a friend of mine told me, almost 50 years ago, that she and her mother had both decided there was no such being as Satan. Within six months they had left the Church.
He’s THAT good (at his job, of course!).
I recently came to the decision that, while I despise his chosen profession, I will put him but not hate him. Hate only damages me and he hasn’t earned that right.
