Matthew 16

23 But turning He said to Peter: "Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, because you are not mindful of God’s values, but of men’s values."*Satan put those words in Peter’s mouth, but he agreed with them. Note that within 3-5 minutes Peter spoke twice, under inspiration; the first time inspired by God (verses 16-17) and the second by Satan (verses 22-23). It is God the Son who tells us what really happened. Since Sovereign Jesus said it was Satan, it was Satan, and if he could do it to Peter, he can do it to us. The almost total ignorance on the subject of biblical spiritual warfare that prevails in North America is having serious consequences.
