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
55-0311 §17
If you'll notice, just about the time that Jesus came on the scene, Judas came on the scene---the antichrist, the one was against Christ. I want you to notice the natures of these spirits now. Judas was a religious man. He was not an infidel. And all of us know that he was the antichrist. He worked the very closest hand to Christ, His right-hand man. Did you know that in heaven, that the devil was God's right-hand man in the beginning? that Lucifer, the son of the morning, was given power? And the reason that he br...
Hebrews, Chapter 2, part 2
57-0825E §17
When His earthly work had been finished here on earth... He came to the earth, as soon as He did, the Morning Star declared Him to be the Son of God. He shook every devil that He come in contact with. Blessed be the name of the Lord! Devils trembled and shook, and begged for mercy in His presence. Yes, sir! All hell knowed who He was. He walked humble. He had not a place to lay His head on a rainy night. The very animals that He created: the birds of the air has nests and the foxes has dens, but the Son of man does...

It's not the man. When you see a person like that, don't never think that it's the man; it's the devil that's in the man. Now that maniac on the platform that night, was going to kill me up in Oregon. That man, when he come to me, instead of him spitting in my face and calling me a "snake in the grass" before nearly ten thousand people; well, it wasn't that ... it wasn't the man. He's a man that eats, drinks, sleeps, perhaps with a family, and loves, and just like I am or you are. But it was that devil in him that...
The Seed of Discrepancy
65-0118 §17
Notice, their seeds grew together just exactly like God said over here also in the 13th chapter, of our text tonight, of Matthew, "Let them grow together." Now, Cain went to the land of Nod, found himself a wife, and married; and Abel was slewn, and God raised up Seth to take his place. And the generations started moving on, between right and wrong. Now, we notice they gathered, each one of them, time after time, and God had to... It got so wicked till God had to destroy. But they finally came forth until both of t...
