RENEWAL OF THE MIND
A Christian's spiritual struggle is not waged against any earthly opponent, but against the spiritual evil that fills the world. The Bible refers to these evil spiritual forces as "principalities and powers." In Scripture, Satan is characterized as the “accuser of the brethren”: (Rev.12:10), our “adversary”(I Pet. 5: 8), “the devil” (Matt. 4:1), our “enemy”(Matt. 13:39), the “evil one” (I Jn. 5:19), the “father of lies” (Jn. 8:44), a “murder”(Jn. 8:44), a “roaring Lion seeking to devour us,”(I Pet. 5:8,9), and the “tempter”(Matt. 4:3).
