And the devil took him up and showed him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time, and said to him, “To you I will give all this authority and their glory, for it has been delivered to me, and I give it to whom I will.

“‘You shall worship the Lord your God,
and him only shall you serve.’”' (Luke 4:5-8)
So, yeah, it seems that both John and Luke thought that the devil was the ruler of this world. At least for now.... "The world is about to change."
