If I commit wrong doing, I take full responsibility for it. I do not blame the devil or evil beings or any kind. It is my own doing therefore my own fault. If I am liable for punishment, I take it with full responsibility. If I succeed in life, do well in examinations, help an old lady across the road for no reason other then the fact that I want to help her, I will take full credit for it. As simple as that.
I do not allow imaginary beings to control me, neither do I blame them for my actions or give them credit for any good that I do in my life.
You have some misunderstanding in your post. Do you really think that when a christian sins they blame it on the devil? I know 200+ christians and not one of them would ever think about doing something that stupid.
