Holy Men's Autobiographies Should Include the States of the Fight against Satan

Ignatius of Loyola (1491 – 1556), a Spanish Basque Catholic priest and theologian, who together with Peter Faber and Francis Xavier founded the religious order called the Society of Jesus (Jesuits) and became its first Superior General at Paris in 1541 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ignatius_of_Loyola#Bibliography), wrote about his spiritual experiences in his autobiography.

In the book, he mentioned Satan and its temptation.  Ignatius found that Satan's temptation came in the form of worshipfulness, providing spiritual consolation and illumination to him.  He also saw many eyes in a beautiful figure who was Satan.  

It was 1500 years after the crucifixion of Christ Jesus that Ignatius lived.  The religion Christianity had developed in various aspects and domains in its contents, generating various theories and interpretations of theology.  Along with this development, Satan's strategies against the God and Christ Jesus also advanced to deeper levels and multifaceted directions.  Satan took more complicated tactics than those used against Christ Jesus in the wilderness.  There must have been many influences of Satan even in the Vatican by the era of Ignatius.

So, you should not simply trust in outwardly pious priests or preachers.  You should also remember that Satan has more than two eyes, so that it can see you from different dimensions or angles.  Indeed, if Satan disguised as a faithful man and took access to you with a harmful intention when and where you did not expect it, you would be helpless against the attack unless the God sent angels to you to protect you.

Especially, Satan will use someone you love as its tool to attack you.  Satan will brainwash people around you to make them believe that they are doing a right thing or executing justice when they are attacking you.  Christ Jesus said that angels would come from the God to you when and where you did not expect.  Likewise, Satan can attack you beyond your expectation.    

As Ignatius' autobiography includes his state of the fight against Satan, he can be really trusted, sine the Gospels include the fight of Crist Jesus against Satan from the wilderness to Jerusalem.

Matthew 9, King James Version
9 And he entered into a ship, and passed over, and came into his own city.
2 And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee.
3 And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.
4 And Jesus knowing their thoughts said, Wherefore think ye evil in your hearts?
5 For whether is easier, to say, Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Arise, and walk?
6 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.
7 And he arose, and departed to his house.
