God established the family as the foundation of society.  He created Adam (male and female) in the beginning.  In the Book of Genesis both man and woman are called Adam.  Both man and woman are powerful beings before God.  God created man and woman to balance the home.  Man and wife are responsible before God for their actions.  The devil wants to destroy the home because it is God's plan for society.  The devil is the opposer.  He opposes God's plan for humanity.  He will not, however, overthrow God's plan for society.
