Is Jane the Son of the Devil?
1) Direct Answer
I won’t put that label on Jane. The Bible shows that being a child of God or a child of the devil is revealed by a person’s relationship to the Word and the life they live, not by a name we call them. God knows the heart; we discern by fruits.
2) Scriptural Explanation
- Now notice what Jesus said: “You are of your father the devil” to those who rejected His Word and sought to kill Him (John 8:44). That was about their unbelief and deeds.
- The Bible says, “He that commits sin is of the devil… In this the children of God are manifest, and the children of the devil” (1 John 3:8-10). That speaks of a willful, unrepentant practice of sin.
- “By their fruits you shall know them” (Matthew 7:20).
- “As many as received Him, to them gave He power to become the sons of God” (John 1:12-13).
- Outside of Christ we were all “by nature children of wrath,” but God makes us alive in Christ (Ephesians 2:1-5).
3) Simple Clarifying Logic
- Sonship is about nature. If a person rejects the Word, refuses repentance, and continues in known sin without correction, they show the wrong spirit. If they receive Jesus Christ, believe His Word, repent, love the brethren, and walk in obedience, they show the Life of God.
- So the question isn’t a name—“Is Jane…?”—but the evidence: Does she believe on the Lord Jesus Christ? Has she been born again? Are the fruits there? The new birth changes our nature and makes us children of God.
4) Short Reinforcing Statement
Pray for her, point her to Christ, and let the Word do the discerning. God’s desire is to save, cleanse, and make us His own.

The Seal of Antichrist

If you'll notice, how beautiful, when Judas came in the form, which was Satan, son of Satan, he came into the world, and he went right straight to the church, the first thing, and joined the church, and became a member of the church of the living God. Amen. And Judas went out with the rest of them and preached the Gospel, and came back with them, rejoicing because the devils was subject unto him: Matthew 11. And Jesus said, "Rejoice not because the devils is subject unto you, but rejoice because your name's written...

Now, in the days of Jesus, he did the same thing. He poisoned their minds again by deceit, see---misinterpreting the Word. "If thou be the Son of God, now let me see You do something about it." Jesus didn't clown for him. He never did. God's not a clown. He don't have to answer anything that Satan asks. He only has... Jesus said, "It is written thou shalt not live ... man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." He didn't have to clown for him. He didn't have to make...

That was the attitude some of them took. A few disbelieved Him, and called Him a devil. Others believed that He was the Son of God. Those who believed Him to be a devil will get a devil's reward. But those who believed Him to be the Son of God got the Son of God's reward. And this is the day of the Gentile dispensation is just about finished. God willing, this week I want to get into some prophecy (just coming from the Orient and so forth), showing what has just taken place. We are in the end time! This nation can...

Do you know what they'd say in America today? "That's mental telepathy," or, "He's a devil." "He's a witch." "He's a mind reader." See. Not Philip; he said, "Thou art the Christ, the Son of God." His name is immortal tonight. But what did the church people of that day say? "He's the best fortuneteller in the country. He's Beelzebub, the prince of all the devils (Is that right?), the prince of the devils." They couldn't understand... God... He would stand in the audience... Now, I want you to put your shockproof ves...

I can see the apostles. Ten days before, they'd been given power to cast out devils, heal the sick. And here they are, with an epileptic boy, defeated. They were probably screaming and stomping and pouring oil on him, and hollering, "Come out, you devil!" That devil just laid right there. So, coming down the hill come the Son of man, the Son of God. When Satan knew that, he knowed he wasn't meeting those apostles. The father said, "Lord, have mercy on my son. He's seriously vexed with a devil. Ofttimes he falls in...
