We should never blame Satan for our sins. Even when we are tempted, the Bible states that we alone are responsible for our own choices (James 1:14-15).
Whenever I talk about forgiveness, I feel it’s important to first point out the biblical difference between forgiveness and reconciliation. This is important because many people unwisely allow themselves to keep getting abused by unhealthy people because they feel that’s what it means to forgive. But that’s not biblical forgiveness.
