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 revelation that was given to me
60-0210M §16
So it was strange to me, and I said, "Sir, I am here because that when I go among my brethren, I see those visions. And my ministerial brethren tells me that that's of the devil, and I'm here that God will never let it happen to me again." Quickly, He walked in front of me, asked me to stand up. And I stood up, and He said to me, "Knowest thou not the Scriptures?" And I said, "Well, the ministers doesn't know--doesn't--doesn't agree with this. If this is--would be of God, why wouldn't they have it?" He said, "It is...

...s something different from anything else he'd ever stung. He could sting a prophet, and he'd die. He stung a prophet and then he'd sting another one. But when he stung that Son of God there, it anchored that stinger and pulled it out of him. Today death doesn't have any sting because the flesh of God caught the stinger and pulled it out of him. The devil didn't know that was Him. All the time He said, "If you're the Son of God, do this. If you're the Son of God, do this." Put a rag around His face... And He seen th...

Now, it might not fit the theology of different churches, but just look at it, listen a little while, and you'll find out that it may be backed in the Scriptures. And Jesus, when He came on earth, His ministry certainly didn't fit with the theology of that day, so much that they thought He was a mind reader, or because He perceived their thoughts. And He had the supernatural work that... Well, they finally said He was of the devil, a Beelzebub. And it didn't fit with their teaching. But it did fit with God's Word....
The god of this evil age

See now who is the leader of this modern, religious, evil age? It's the devil taking that tree of good and evil and placing it out there (notice), bringing his beautiful church bride to the ecumenical council for a wedding (that's a good one!), his beautiful scientific church with all the degrees that can be gotten, the Ph.D's. out of the Church of Christ, the Ph.D's. out of the Baptist, Presbyterian, Pentecostals, and all, bringing them all with their decorated fineries and big churches, all to the ecumenical coun...
And thy Seed shall possess the gate of His enemy
62-0121M §103
I pray, God, have mercy! No one wants to go to that regions of the lost. No one wants to go down there, Father. Far be it from any of us going. Yet, down in there is a good heart in that person, that man, that woman---a man or woman that's charitable, and nice and kind, and has just been deceived by the devil. The devil done that. Satan, I'm against you because you're an enemy of my Lord. You're an enemy of his Word. And I charge thee by Jesus Christ, the Son of God, as a mortal being knowing that I have no power w...
