After Jesus cast out demons from possessed people, he made sure that these demons didn't reveal his true identity. Why? Example from [Mar 1:24-25,34 (NIV)](http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark%201:24-34&version=NIV) : > 24“What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!”
> 25“Be quiet!” said Jesus sternly. “Come out of him!”
> ...
> 34and Jesus healed many who had various diseases. He also drove out many demons, but he would not let the demons speak because they knew who he was.
