How is it that even the demons "knew Him to be the Christ." How did they know?
I think one needs to first determine who the demons are. They were not created demons any more than mankind was created evil. We have the scripture that when the light in you becomes darkness how great is that darkness. The demons used to be angels. Jude and Peter tell us what happened in the days of Noah, just in case we got all caught up with the deception that the sons of God were the sons of Seth.
Jud 1:6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
2Pe 2:4 For if God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment; 5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
Now that we see that the demons used to be holy angels--why wouldn't they know Jesus?
We really have no idea of everyday life in G0d's heaven (which is not the sky or universe), but some of these angels may have had direct fellowship with Jesus. We know Satan did. Even if they did not, they certainly would know the Logos. The spokesperson for the Father.
