But those who sell their soul to the devil, as he did, have no life in them anyway

I didn't think you believed in the devil.

So Calvinists have sold their souls to a devil you don't believe in, huh?

The ancient Jews don't believe in the devil, PM. The idea of the devil is a latter-day occurrence in Judaism, influenced by Zoroastrianism and accepted by apocalyptic Jewish groups. The NT references to the devil come from "Apocrypha" which you Protestants reject.

I have unanswered questions regarding the devil. I think there is one in every one of us.
