Indeed what they had was man's knowledge as when a person studies the Encyclopedia Britannica thoroughly until his brain contains all of the information it contained, but what does he "know" really about anything? Does he have more than superficial knowledge according to men? Do people not sometimes [often?] do the same thing with the written Bible and still not know God at all?he said, with complete confidence look, what you are doing, right now, see? No, they almost certainly did not "have knowledge" in the Scriptural sense wadr
What is the difference between a faithful believer in God and a devil?
"Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble." James 2:19
ha you just dont even realize what you are doing there i guess. Yes, Yah speaks in facts of a kind--i would say "truth"--but He is Yah and you are not, so wadr knowledge brings sorrow and he who says he knows, does not applies to you in a way that it does not, to Him, imo

Like a devil, a man [Is man perhaps then, The devil?] can know exactly what the Bible says, but have no idea what God is saying. He has man's knowledge of good and evil, but he is really blind and deaf! How does he differ from a devil... if he does?
"And [the devil] saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone." Matt 4:6
But then...
"Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God." Matt 4:7
"its like this and
like that and
like this, and uh"
ok prof ty, and have a nice day sir
And then...?
"Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity." Matt 7:22-23
So again what is the difference between a devil and one who is called, and chosen and faithful?
"...for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful." Rev 17:14
