'Making' in the Bible

There went out to him people of all classes from Judaea, and the inhabitants of Jerusalem of all ranks, and were baptized by him in the river Jordan, making open confession of their sins.

"Rabbi," said John to Him, "we saw a man making use of your name to expel demons, and we tried to hinder him, on the ground that he did not follow us."

and who swallow up the property of widows and then mask their wickedness by making long prayers: these men will receive far heavier punishment."

And signs shall attend those who believe, even such as these. By making use of my name they shall expel demons. They shall speak new languages.
