The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from King James Bible: Barjesus:
ACT 13:7 Which was with the deputy of the country, Sergius Paulus, a
prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the
word of God.
ACT 13:8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation)
withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith.
ACT 13:9 Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy
Ghost, set his eyes on him.
ACT 13:10 And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child
of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to
pervert the right ways of the Lord?
