ADVERSARY, THE

The desire-mind which strives against the Divine nature within the soul.

"Your adversary the devil, roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: whom withstand steadfast in your faith." - 1 PETER V. 8-9.

The desire-mind, motived by the strength of the desires and the senses, seeks to dominate the soul. But the soul is exhorted to resist by relying upon its higher nature.
