October 15, 2023 AM, Luke 4:1-13.

Our Scripture reading was 2 John 1:1ff


Satan left Jesus alone, but only for a little while. There would be many other temptations throughout His life, but God did not record most of them for us in Scripture. He did detail the internal and very human struggle of Jesus at Gethsemane. But then as in Luke 4, Jesus chose not to give in to the lure of personal comfort, instead committing to do God’s will, not His own. Jesus would be a perfect model of a God-fearing man.
