The Devil Myth

Healthy People Have No Need For A Devil - Deepak Chopra

"I do believe in "casting out the devil" ... Casting out the belief, devotion and fear of such a being from your mind, from your heart, from your life rather than putting faith, belief and fundamental devotion into such a concept and empowering this being by keeping him resurrected in your thoughts and inviting him into your reality."~~~ James Peter Jandu

The Devotion To A Devil Is Quite High In Fundamentalist Religion - Carlton Pearson

 Yes I have learnt from Carlton Pearson's book that the personal devil in Christianity is a myth. I have also read other materials and discussions, some of which shared by you, that the devil is just a metaphor, which could refer to the shadow or false self. So it is just a religious terminology to describe something which does not exist in reality. The devil in the lake of fire is only a symbolic way of saying that the old separation mindset of religion has been dissolved, in the context of the end of the Jewish old covenant age, when people in that culture and era would realise we are all one family of God/Divine.
