Do you fight a literal satan? are you out there with a sword fighting against a literal physically bodied enemy? I guess that is where the image of the red hooded, fork-wielding scary red demon picture comes from.

Peter pictured him as a raging lion seeking to and fro... have you ever been attacked by a literal raging satanic lion? Again.... I think not....

Or, does satan manifest himself to us through the flesh? The attack from the wicked one comes through our flesh, and our mind. Where does the greatest battle rage in your life... your mind!

So yes, the enemy attacks us through our mind, and our flesh, and that is where the battle rages.

So when Jesus was tempted while on earth did He have a flesh nature to be tempted through as you put it?
