The sons of Sceva had been watching Paul. They'd seen the miracles, heard the name of Jesus produce results their own incantations couldn't match. So they tried to add Jesus to their formula. “I command you by the Jesus that Paul preaches.” That secondhand wording told the whole story. The demon's response is one of the most memorable lines in Acts: “I know Jesus, and I recognize Paul, but who are you?” Then the demon-possessed man beat all seven of them so badly they ran out of the house naked and bleeding. Word spread across the city. Believers who'd been hedging their bets came forward to confess. They burned scrolls of magic worth fifty thousand pieces of silver, roughly 150 years of wages. Repentance that costs nothing changes nothing. The name of Jesus can't be borrowed. It has to be believed.
