Thank you for revisiting the eloquence of Paul Harvey! Ecclesiastes 1:9 still rings true: “there is nothing new under the sun” (NKJV).

Last summer, Paul Harvey's original and prophetic eloquence inspired my written and spoken adaptation of his original. My original website article is: “'IF I WERE THE DEVIL' – Inspired by Paul Harvey (published 7-22-2022; article #340),” Appalachian Irishman, 7/22/2022. My spoken words are at: "If I Were the Devil" – Inspired by Paul Harvey (published 7-22-2022; podcast #3),” Appalachian Irishman - Podcasts (YouTube), 7/22/2022. I'd reproduce the article, with podcast embedded, on Substack, as: "IF I WERE THE DEVIL" – Inspired by Paul Harvey (published 7-22-2022; article #340): Re-published here, from original at https://www.appalachianirishman.com/2022/07/if-i-were-devil-inspired-by-paul-harvey.html by M. Fearghail, on Substack, 7/22/2022.

On 4/22/2023, I decided to republish my YouTube episode on Substack, as: “'If I Were the Devil' – Inspired by Paul Harvey (published 7-22-2022; podcast #3): Republished on Substack on 4/22/2023.” On Appalachian Irishman (since 3/6/2006) - Substack 12/23/2021+, 4/22/2023.

We are trying to get out the Good Word. I wonder how many are listening? Thank you for your good efforts, to encourage this once great nation to return to the biblical worldview! May God bless your efforts.

My mom and I in my younger years used to listen to Paul Harvey. He definitely spoke the truth. The same truth has been spoken over two millennials: the enemy comes to kill, steal, and destroy. He has been doing that ever since the day in the Garden. Thank You for sharing this.

How intuitive.

In 1965 I was dead in my sin but nearly 60 years later, I am alive in Christ. Some of us are slow learners.

That was really, really creepy... and reads just like what is going on now. I've read a couple of essays in this vein - one ended with the devil saying he coud do so much damage because people didn't believe he was real. Thank you, Jim. I will share this.

You are right when you say that people don't believe the devil is real... and that includes many people who claim to be Christians! Thank you for sharing it!

That always amazes me! I try to be aware in case someone isn't afraid...or afraid enough.

The late Paul Harvey nailed it in "If I Were the Devil." I am reminded of the revelations of Dr. Richard Day in 1969, who was an eminent professor and physician, and former Medical Director of "Planned Parenthood." https://drrichardday.wordpress.com/about-the-meeting/

"nobody can stop us now," "much bigger than communism," "People are too trusting. People don’t ask the right questions.” Scary stuff alright. Glad to have read your link. Thanks for posting!
