The Truth Is

Yet satan is the very
  fact
that the full extent
  of heavenly bliss
is something you have not
  experienced.
He is the knowledge that
  there is something glorious
that you completely
  lack.
He says you have
  a lack to fill
until you struggle
  to be full.
He says you have
  a dire need
until you are completely
  filled with greed.

But he will never be content
  with how much glory
  you can get.
And no amount
  of goods you have
  will ever make him quit.
He says you've not
  achieved it yet.
He says you've not
  accomplished it.
He only points
  to what you lack.
And he shows contempt
  for all you have
until it’s obvious
  that he is accusing you
  and making evil threats.

Why should we listen
  to this idea that
we have not gained
  the ultimate?
Is he an angel
  of holy light
that inspires us
  to reach
  for the greatest heights?
Is he responsible
  for all you’ve gained?
Does he sustain
  our lives?

The only thing we need
  to complete our happiness
is to know that God
  our Savior lives
and to know that He
  has the strength.
For if our Savior God
  is very strong
and also loves us
  very much,
then there is nothing
  that can destroy us,
so we know that we
  will live.

Thus,
  satan is the fact
that you have not seen God
  in heaven yet-
you’ve not seen
  the Love
  that He can give,
you’ve not seen
  how strong
  that He is.                                             See 3 John 11
Thus,
  satan blasphemes God.
For he says
  that God is not glorious.
He says that God
  does not exist.
  Or else
he says that God
  has no strength to help.
He says
  that God does not
  do what’s just.
He says
  that God does not even
  care for us.
He says
  that you have
  sinned too much.
Or he says
  that your faith in God
  is not enough.
So he leads the world
  into utter darkness,
and he compels them to sin
  out of ignorance.
