Pope Francis on the Devil

Pope Francis wrote this about Satan:

 "Jesus calls him the father of lies and the book of Wisdom says that sin  entered the world through the envy of the devil for master work of God. His fruits are always destruction, division, hate and calumny. And in personal experience, I feel him every time I am tempted to do something that is not what God asks of me. I believe that the devil exists. Perhaps his greatest success in our times is to make us believe that he does not exist, that everything is worked out on a completely human level."
From "Sobre El Cielo y La Tierra" - a dialogue between Rabbi Abraham Skorka and Cardinal Bergoglio (the
translation is mine)
An appropriate quote for the Fifth Sunday of Lent - as the Elect receive the Third Scrutiny (pre-baptismal exorcism)
