Bible Note: I believe that in 2 Corin. 4:4, the reference to "the God of this world" is Satan. Satan blinds them from the truth. They are under the influence and power of the devil. The design of the devil is to keep men in ignorance; and, when he cannot keep the light of the gospel out of the world, he makes it his great business to keep it out of the hearts of men. |
