Not necessarally used but definately tempted. And once you give in to temptation, yes, you can be used. Actually, the devil would rather tempt a believer than a non-believer. That is his whole mission. There is no need for him to go after non-believers- he already has them. It is the believer he wants to corrupt. However, a true believer should obviously be less likely to be used if they stay in close relationship to God. (That's my good Christian answer for the day. lol)

I believe you can. Anytime you show unfairness, anger -- anytime you lie to or about someone, anytime you cheat on your spouse, or deliberately hurt someone's feelings or try to hurt them in other ways.
Yes, your carnal self has alot to do with this, but satan whispers in your ears, and you are listening to the devil's voice when you do these things.
You cannot be POSSESSED by the devil. You are protected by God against that. But, God allows these tests, trials and temptations to happen to build your character.
Remember a story in which Jesus was telling Peter about His dying, and Peter's remarked with defiance. Jesus rebuked satan.
Just listen to God's voice. You know it is God when what you hear can be backed up by Scripture.

Yes, even if you believe in God you don't go to heaven straight away. You stay on earth and are still human. Yes, if you allow the devil to use you. That's why we gotta be always on our guard.
