Our Enemy The Devil-temptation

Satan has three basic strategies that he uses over and over.Although he adapts them for different people in different situations,he hasn't updated much since his encounter with Eve in the Garden of Eden.First,he tempts us to doubt God.The he suggests that we test God.And finally he  implies that he,not God can give us what we need.He has used these tactics so often that by now we should laugh in his face when he tries them on us.Sadly,however,satan seems to be the one doing most of the laughing.He is still deceiving us because we think of him as repulsive,foul-smelling,fire breathing monster rather than as the beautiful creature scripture states that he is.
