Note 1 at Mt 24:4: Deception can be avoided or else Jesus would not have said, "Take heed that no man deceive you." Satan can only deceive those who allow him to do it. Eph 6:11 tells us to "put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil." Putting on the whole armor of God (Eph 6:11-18) will protect against the deception of the devil.
