Most of us think the spiritual battle is happening out there. Temptations, bad influences, toxic people, the devil lurking behind a corner. But Jesus points the spotlight somewhere far more uncomfortable: inside our own heads.
When Peter pulled Him aside and tried to talk Him out of the Cross, Jesus didn't gently correct him. He said, "Get behind me, Satan. You are not thinking as God does, but as humans do" (Matt 16:23).
Notice: the problem wasn't Peter's loyalty or his emotion. It was his reasoning.
