There really is a spiritual enemy in this world, Satan. And he really is harming people, and not just through a loss of money or a form of control, but of bondage and slavery to the system which is in place. It's seen in every industry that focuses on money ahead of helping people. The auto industry builds cars with parts which are purposefully designed to be difficult to service by the average home-mechanic's abilities. They work, but you need to go back to them to get it fixed, more money, or buy a new one, more money, because those company's goals do not relate to helping you, but rather to making money. Only.
It's needed greatly that people wake up and realize what's going on, and free themselves from all of this. There is One who shows the way of truth in all things, that our focus is to be love:
(1) Love for God,
(2) Love for one another,
(3) Love for ourselves
All intertwined as per our focus, our actions, our abilities, our opportunities. We don't use them to get ahead of the others, but to grow the others around us, to be doing our best to help others be able to do their best.
This is the true focus of Jesus Christ, and of Christianity -- love, helping one another, serving God, serving man, serving ourselves, all of it to the fullest extent of our abilities, for the purposes of helping each other out as best we can.
