Hey, John, are you there?

Can you hear me? Hey, I can hear you now. How are you doing, John, are you there? Hey, I can hear me?

Hey, I can hear you now.

How are you doing, John?

Oh, sorry.

Hey, I want to ask you question.

If the Holy Spirit's work is to convict people of the sins,

then the devil, you have an opposing force like the devil trying to blind people from accepting truth.

How does that, I don't

understand how would that work, uh, or how does the Holy Spirit work in this kind of environment

or you have the world system and the devil trying to blind people from reaching the truth?

And our, and our thing is, uh, how was the, how does the devil become so, uh, I don't know,

almost like, I mean, used to be considered, you know, like an evil creature.

Now it's considered almost like they pay, you know, it's almost like a total opposite effect with the devil being credited for things that, you know, that things, you know, it's more, it seems like there's more favorable for, you know, for the devil worship now
