To lure you into committing the sin he exaggerates God's mercy in your mind to dispel the fear of sin, and after you fall he tempts you to despair from the wrath of God. That is why Judas betrayed Christ and hanged himself afterwards. Most Christians today are so confident in God's mercy that the Devil let's them continue in their sin. Since Judas realized he sinned against God only then does he drive to despair. To combat this we must fear the Lord before sin, and be confident of his mercy after. | |

The first three have clear biblical justification. | |
