Luke 4:33 Now in the synagogue there was a man who had a spirit of an unclean demon. And he cried out with a loud voice, 34 saying, “Let us alone! What have we to do with You, Jesus of Nazareth? Did You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”
Just because the Demon recognizes Jesus Christ does not mean it isn't a Demon. There are two things that separate demons from believers, first "what have we do to with you". A believer would never have this attitude. Second, "did you come to destroy us?" Paul told us that if anyone comes to us with a different gospel let them be anathema. Demons know about the Lord's coming, they can recognize Him and they know about their judgement that is to be executed shortly. What they don't know is the gospel of grace.
Luke 8:28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out, fell down before Him, and with a loud voice said, “What have I to do with You, Jesus, Son of the Most High God? I beg You, do not torment me!”
This is a second example, "I beg You, do not torment me". They have no clue about the gospel of grace. What they do know about is wrath, and torment and judgement.
Acts 16:16 Now it happened, as we went to prayer, that a certain slave girl possessed with a spirit of divination met us, who brought her masters much profit by fortune-telling. 17 This girl followed Paul and us, and cried out, saying, “These men are the servants of the Most High God, who proclaim to us the way of salvation.” 18 And this she did for many days. But Paul, greatly annoyed, turned and said to the spirit, “I command you in the name of Jesus Christ to come out of her.” And he came out that very hour. 19 But when her masters saw that their hope of profit was gone, they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them into the marketplace to the authorities.
This is my point, it is called "predictive programming". This is where people (maybe even believers) pick out prophetic words from Hollywood movies and demonic music videos. We saw recently in the lawsuit involving Britney Spears that she is a "slave girl" who is bringing her masters much profit. Do not be surprised if these demon possessed slaves working for the movie industry and music industry have a prophetic word. Demons know about the coming judgement, they know about Jesus Christ, they know about torment and fire and fallen angels. You can see all of that in these things that come from this spirit of divination, what you can't see is the gospel of grace. What you can't see is the way of salvation. The Lord will not allow these foul creatures to speak His name or preach His gospel or witness to His grace.
2Peter 1:19 And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts;
I have heard a number of prophecies from many different sources. Some of these words have been confirmed. But the words and prophecies of the Bible are a light that shines in a dark place. It is a sure word, a word of life and grace. It is a word of salvation. Compare that with these dark sayings of judgement, torment, destruction and hell fire.
