With God all things are possible Posts: 3917	Matthew 4:8-11 The devil took Him to a very high mountain and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. " All this I will give you, he said, if you will now down and worship me". Jesus said to him " Away from me, Satan! For it is written: " Worship The Lord Yôur God, and serve Him only". Then the devil left Him, and angels came and attended Him. The devil stand for everything that opposes God and will not bow down to him. Here he offers Jesus a choice: Go Yôur appointed way and continue to serve God, or break free from him and have the whole world at your disposal, but the price is bowing down to the devil. The choice is almost laughable.... Serving God or serving the devil. Jesus came to save the world, so here is the devil' greatest temptation: Save it by ruling as a benevolent dictator. In yielding to this temptation, Jesus would not have been the Christ, but the Beast of Revelatiin. Change the world like becoming like the world. Defeat evil by compromising with it. Luke adds this: When the devil has finished all this tempting, he left Him an opportune time. 4:13. Satan is not completely done with Jesus. They would meet again. But for now, at the beginning of His ministry , Jesus had passed the great test: He was the obedient Son of God. he had done what Adam had failed to do, withstood temptation. Matthew 4:19 COME, FOLLOW ME, and I will make you fishers of men. For I AM the way, the truth and the life For it is with God all things are possible have a VERY BLESSED Monday ALL!! src='/forum/images/emoticons/06vday1.gif'> Edited by ladyjockey 2017-04-17 8:02 AM
