In John 8 verse 31 Jesus spoke to those Jews which believed on him and his words reproved them and hurt their pride. They began to accuse Jesus and said "we weren't born of fornication, we have one Father even God." Jesus then told them in verse 44, "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it." We need to remember that the devil is the father of lies and the accuser of the brethren. He is quite busy in this very hour lying and accusing to cause division in the body of Christ. So many don't recognize his voice because they are immersed in today's culture and are used to hearing lies and accusations about others. We are to speak the truth in love and are not to speak lies. How will we identify those who are of the devil? They will be incapable of speaking the truth because they are listening to their father, "the devil, the father of lies".
