Pai da mentira
A Bíblia revela que o diabo é o pai da mentira. Ele engana, acusa e tenta destruir. Mas Cristo veio para desfazer as obras do maligno e nos dar vitória.

You are of your father the devil,and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murdererfrom the beginningand does not stand in the truth,because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks from his own nature,because he is a liar and the father of lies.

and the kingdom of our God
and the authority of his Christ
have now come,
because the accuser of our brothers and sisters,
who accuses them
before our God day and night,
has been thrown down.

the field is the world; and the good seed — these are the children of the kingdom. The weeds are the children of the evil one,and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels.
Be sober-minded, be alert. Your adversary the devil is prowling around like a roaring lion, looking for anyone he can devour.
The coming of the lawless one is based on Satan’s working, with every kind of miracle, both signs and wonders serving the lie,

Cristo apareceu para destruir as obras do diabo. Quem está em Deus é protegido, e o maligno não o toca.
The one who commits sin is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. The Son of God was revealed for this purpose: to destroy the devil’s works.
Conclusion
We know that everyone who has been born of God does not sin, but the one who is born of God keeps him, , and the evil one does not touch him. We know that we are of God, and the whole world is under the sway of the evil one.
