AnswerDear Carlton,
Demons are spirits, angels fallen. They see clearly events of the past, present and future. We, look through the glass darkly, as it were.
These demons believe in the judgement to come because they can see it and they tremble, for it is clear , sure and without mercy for them.
Human beings have an "ignorance factor", wherein which they are given mercy and grace, allowed by God and designed by God for this occasion. Spirits do not bear the same good fortune. Their sin was done in the clear light of day, as it were. It was open rebellion and therefore , for them, there is judgement without mercy....for all the thousands that they have tricked , deceived and dreadfully mutilated and killed.
The great wrath of God, which we will never have to experience (as in the days of the Great Flood), will come without let up, without any recall to mercy, without any ears to hear their pleas for mercy...the living dead! Humans sense these things but spirits see them clearly, knowing that their time is coming soon they tremble and shudder because the face of God that they will see is the face of the judge of a very angry Father who has had to watch His children die at the hands of a merciless psychopathic monster.... and that dad is very mad and will make them suffer mercilessly for the brutality with which they killed His children, though His children pleaded for mercy.
The Judge is fair and the judgement is right... and all the children of these devils suffer the same consequential fate also.
God bless
