So what? Jesus doesn't save demons, no matter what they think, say, or
do. Salvation by works types always look at the action of the
individual and base salvation on that; they never look at what Jesus
does.

Jesus saves those whom He has chosen; the demons can never be a part of
the elect. The saved confess because Jesus has saved them; they are not
saved because they confess.
