October 24 Luke 4-5 The Demons Know Who Jesus Is

In Mark 1:34, we learn that Jesus "would not let the demons speak because they knew Who He was." That the demons knew exactly Who Jesus was is stated several times in the Gospels. We are told in James 2:19 "You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that-- and shudder."

Why is it that the demons are such believers in God and Jesus Christ and that so many humans have disbelief and such erroneous beliefs in God that they don't worship the one true and living God? The demons fear God (they "shudder"), yet most men are moved to less than a twinge - at least until their deathbed - then they fear meeting their Maker!

I think the problem is that we have set ourselves up as a god. So we reject the truth about God. people aren't as interesting in truth as they are in control. People bend truth to give themselves control.

If people truly seek truth, they will find it - God promises us so. Demons will never have a right relationship with God - perhaps because they personally knew god and rejected Him - Jesus' death was not for them to be reconciled to God - but it was for us. See k truth - you will find God - the one in the Bible - there is no other - the demons know that - you can, too!
