In part 1 of You Asked for It, Steve Ingold attempts to answer the question "Who or What is the devil. In the message, Steve explores the role of the devil and self/ego/pride in the Christian faith. Drawing from CS Lewis' "The Screwtape Letters", he suggests that the devil aims to instill "tortured fear and stupid confidence", contrasting with our Christian ideal of "content hope and wise uncertainty". The message emphasizes personal responsibility for sin, considering the devil as a real force but not an excuse for our wrong choices. Pastor Steve advocates for acknowledging the reality of evil and confronting it with the power of the Kingdom of God, emphasizing LOVE as the ultimate weapon against evil.
