Pleasure and pain are the two things in life that give you that sense of alive-ness.
So the devil, being the sneaky, crafty old liar that he is, will attempt to either take away your pleasure by introducing all kinds of sell-imposed restrictions and convince you that the way to paradise is to suffer now (think earning your way into heaven)...
OR
he will numb you to pain by lying that no one cares and that you're incapable of getting rid of the pain, so give in to things like alcohol, drugs, sex - anything that will provide instantaneous escapes. That's where addictions come in.
Jesus came that we may have life.
Life to the fullest.
Don't let the devil cheat you of the life that you have with Jesus.
