If he does, how does he do it? Can you give me some examples where he's done this?

According to John 8, Satan's native language is to lie and the truth is not in him. He is a deceiver and a murderer. He is also the accuser of Christians. The devil may mix some truth in with his lies, but unless it is 100 percent true it is still a lie. The devil never speaks only the truth because this simply isn't possible for him. If he did speak only the truth then more people would turn to Jesus Christ because, although Satan doesn't speak the truth, he certainly is knowledgeable of the truth.

There is no Truth in satan.
But, satan can Repeat Truth and anything After That is a Lie with Deceptive Motives.

Yeah! He spoke truth to Jesus in Matthew 4:1-11. He quoted scripture to Jesus which is true but in the wrong context interlaced with evil motives. He spoke truth but with wrong motives and therefore the truth is negated by the false motives and context.

Yes, he COULD. He just doesn't want to. You know, he even know the Bible itself better than any human in the world...he just doesn't want to speak the truth.

the devil has had to tell the truth, in certain cases of exorcism, much to his dismay and hatred.

He does speak the truth, but not anything God doesn't also speak. And he speaks less truth as well.

he did quote some verses to Jesus in Matthew 4 ... not in the propper intent... and not for God's glory
he does know allot of truth... the biggest problem is that He does not love truth... in the Gospel of Mark a demon said "we know who you are the holy one of God" which was true... but it's like getting an endorsement from the mafia, Jesus told him to be quiet..
a demon possessed fortune telling gitl followed Paul and shouted THESE MEN ARE TELLING YOU A WAY OF SALVATION... which was true..but annoying... they cast out the spirit... he know truth and says it sometimes...he jes dont like it
the devil knows truth but does not love it... it takes grace to go that extra step to love truth ... it takes a work of God in your heart
