Jesus is just getting started when Satan tempts him. Will Jesus stay true to God?
—
When is the hardest time for Jesus? When is he tempted the most? Right after he starts his ministry.
The good news is, Jesus doesn’t give in. What’s more, Jesus is tempted. He never sinned, but he was tempted. Temptation isn’t sin.
At one point Satan quoted the Bible! He knew the letter of God’s directions. But Jesus knew the spirit of God’s directions.
Jesus is on his own, away from the people. But we don’t have to be. Who do you want by your side to help you resist temptation?
