This teaching explores the pivotal event of Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness, following his baptism by John. This encounter was a culmination of the devil’s persistent attempts to thwart the Messiah’s mission. God’s allowance of this temptation served as a testament to Jesus’ preparedness for the challenges ahead.
The teaching delves into the role of the Word of God in overcoming temptations. It distinguishes between temptation and sin, emphasizing that sin arises from mishandling temptation. Temptations may originate from Satan or our sinful nature. The teaching provides practical examples of using Scripture to resist temptations related to the ‘lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and pride of life.’
