Here are some ways the enemy works and operates and I'm sure we can add more to the list. We should learn and know his tactics and schemes as he appears as a angel of light.
1-he twists scripture- Genesis 3, Matt 4. 2-cause one to doubt was God has said- Genesis 3 3-the desiring of flesh, lust of the eyes, pride- 1 John 2 4-religious like the pharisees- their father was the devil- John 8:44 5-denies and twists the gospel- Galatians 1 6-promotes a false christ denying the bodily Resurrection- 1 Cor 15, 1 John 4:2-3, 2 John 7 7-performs miracles signs and wonders to deceive- Matt 16:4, Matt 24:24 8-justifies sin rather than obedience to Christ- 1 John 3:8-10 9-lacks love for brothers/sisters in Christ- 1 John 3:11-15 10-sows discord among the brethren, causes dissension- Galatians 5, Prov 6:12-15
hope this helps !!!

We could do it deep dive on each 1 of the 10 you listed. They amazing part to me is how easily the enemy can convince some believers into believing his lies. And the worst part they stand up for his lies and try to get others to believe it. Ozias OP about homosexuality is a good example about what I'm talking about. Of course, we're called to love the sinner, but hate the sin. But Satan would try to deceive us into believing we have to accept the sinner "and" His sin. That's the reason we have gay pastors in this modern enlightened age.
Then when you try to stand against the gay agenda you're jumping right into number 10 of your list. And The Beat Goes On.

I posted this on another forum in response to a question about the deceiver being an Angel of light where so many people there believe so many unbiblical things. So I summarized a biblical perspective on how the enemy deceived people into believing his lies.

He's been working the same old strategies for thousands of years. He knows what we will fall for. Believing we have the victory and prayer is the answer. If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes. Mark 9:23 In this passage Jesus tells us that “believing” is the condition for answered prayer for a healing. The father of the demon–possessed boy answered in tears, “I believe,” then added, “Help my unbelief!” Since faith is a gift, we may pray for it as this father did. Note how quickly God’s grace answered! berean-apologetics.boards.net/post/6536/thread
