Of course he has. You have to know the Bible to prevent the deceptions. If a spiritual vision tells you anything that is contrary to the Word then it is a false vision and quite possibly a fallen angel.

Surely many times already. Even Christians are being fooled and influence by Satan.
Paul was emphatic to state that Satan is tranformed now into an angel of light. (2 Corinthians 11:14)

In ancient Jewish tradition Satan is simply an angel doing the work that God assigned to Satan to do.
The word Satan means challenger. With the idea of Satan challenging us, or tempting if you will. This description sees Satan as the angel who is the embodiment of man's challenges. This idea of Satan works closely with God as an integral part of Gods plan for us. His job is to make choosing good over evil enough of a challenge so that it becomes clear to us that there can be only one meaningful or logical choice.
Contrast this to Christianity, which sees Satan as God's opponent. In Jewish thought, the idea that there exists anything capable of setting itself up as God's opponent would be considered polytheistic or setting up the devil to be an equally powerful polarity to god or a demigod.
Oddly, proof for The Christian satan/devil mythology is supposedly found in the ancient Jewish texts that were borrowed to create the bible. One can’t help but wonder how Christians came up with such a fantastically different interpretation of Gods assistant Satan in their theology.
Other hints about Satan’s role in human relations can be seen if you look at the name Lucifer. It’s meaning in the original tongue translates as Light bearer or light bringer. Essentially the bringer of enlightenment. The temptations of the Satan idea bring all of us eventually into Gods light. Hardly the Evil entity of Christian mythology.

That is one of Satan's greatest tools...
I recall reading the church histirian, Eusebius, telling how the Asian churches had to disfellowship a church in Galatia because "they were chattering and talking nonesense" while denying important Bible principles. That was an early start on speaking in unknown tongues.
But it doesn't stop here, there are advocates of mandating the Jewish feast days, the doctrine of the Nicolatians--faith excuses sin; once saved always saved, use the term Jahovah for the Father/God/Savior, etc.
But worse of all is those who withheld the Bible because, they said, you might pluck out your eye or cut off your limb. But they considered themselves the corrector of "heretics" and plucked eyes, cut off limbs, roasted alive, and tortured to where death was considered a sweet release.
The Bible plainly warns us of false saviors and false prophets. The main players were foretold in Bible prophecy, so God tells us so we won't be dismayed. A couple prophecies that foretell the two greatest problems are at:
http://abiblecode.tripod.com "The Wise Shall Understand" And after reading that, read "The Rise, Decline, Death of Islam in Bible Prophecies by selecting the "islam" link.

YES! Look at how many false doctrines there are out there! satan deceives many twisting the word of God.
God knows who are His own.
And I pray all the time that I will NEVER be led astray-- one must root themselves in His word and Seek Him in all things- seek HIS wisdom and HIS understanding....once they start to lean on their own understanding, that is when they are weak enough for the enemy to "snatch" them away.
Look at the parable of the sower in Luke.

many times the deception is based on a fraction of truth that is twisted to accommodate pride or promote fear.
...
the remedy is to submit all to God, know the truth, and not be fooled.
