Acts 13:9-11

But Saul (also known as Paul), filled with the Holy Spirit, stared straight at him  and said, “You who are full of all deceit and all wrongdoing, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness—will you not stop making crooked the straight paths of the Lord?  Now look, the hand of the Lord is against you, and you will be blind, unable to see the sun for a time!” Immediately mistiness and darkness came over him, and he went around seeking people to lead him by the hand.

At Paphos - the Holy Spirit speaks against Bar-Jesus, a Jew who was a sorcerer and false prophet. This is the same Saul that persecuted the church, sought to murder and imprison them all. Now he stands in Christ Jesus, the Holy Spirit speaking powerfully through him. There is no person beyond the reach of the grace and mercy of Christ. Now called Paul, he lives his new life in Christ - transformed.
