Who is the devil?
Would we recognize him?

His is a angel!
"One day the angels came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came with them..."
Job 1:6
"And there was war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. The great dragon was hurled down- that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him."
Revelation 12:7

Satan is a murderer and liar!
"You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desire. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies."
John 8:44

Satan is like a roaring lion!
"Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour."
I Peter 5:8

Satan disguises himself as an angel of light.
"And no wonder, for Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light. It is not surprising, then, if his servants masquerade as servants of righteousness. Their end will be what their actions deserve."
II Corinthians 11:14,15

Satan has already been defeated!
"Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might destroy him who holds the power of death- that is the devil- and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death."
Hebrews 2:14,15

If believers resist, he will run away!
"Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you."
James 4:7

The temptations of Jesus were real!
