Satan's fiery darts against Christians are intended to stimulate a distrust of God and tolerance for self-sufficiency. More often than not... this is accomplished through stimulating the mind with a preoccupation for survival and/or an endless search for self-significance (Genesis 3:1,6). When believers yield to the temptation for either, there always on the loosing end of the battle.

​​​Epistle of Jude verses 11 to 19  Supposing The Beguilers 

The Devil's ultimate desire is to bring doubt to the reliability of God's Word by a provocative ongoing effort to mandate and produce disputes and debates that challenges the authority of God's Word. This is a method used by apostates. It produces a horrific drag on the Church. Often, many believers live in a state of doubt.   Jude points out the residual effects of apostates and their supposition in the Church.
