In your opinion, what do you believe to be the greatest enemy the Christian faces today? Why?
The Road Less Traveled 
The greatest enemy the Christian faces is pride. In our carnality, we are easily drawn there and become comfortable there. Societal pressures push us there and we willingly go. But pride puts self on the throne of control, which casts Christ aside. In our struggle with pride, we compare ourselves to others, rather than to Christ’s perfection, which would immediately humble us. Pride leads us to find fault in others to inflate our self-righteousness. When we are prideful, the fruit of the Spirit is not manifested, and others do not see Christ. Pride is self-ish; Christ is self-less.
I feel the greatest enemy today is the same one Christians have always faced, satan and his many forms. Seems like any aspect of life that he can ruin, he will if given the chance. We definitly need our full armor of God every day.
The greatest enemy Christians face is ourselves. We have the free will to say yes or no, to stand and fight, to turn and run, to put Christ first or ourselves. . .All of this IS wrapped up in who/what we are as human beings and the title of this book says it all.
Apathy.
