[800.16 --> 801.02] Or more literally, |
[801.18 --> 801.68] Ha'adam, |
[801.74 --> 802.44] So the human, |
[803.06 --> 806.52] To teach you that the human does not live on bread alone, |
[806.72 --> 809.38] But on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord. |
[809.38 --> 814.10] What Jesus is telling the devil is that God's children, |
[814.76 --> 816.54] And himself as the Son of God, |
[816.90 --> 819.02] Live in full trust in him. |
[819.84 --> 823.44] That we don't use our God-given identity for our own purposes. |
[823.44 --> 827.26] It is a calling to fully trust in God. |
[828.32 --> 830.56] And so in a response to a temptation of doubt, |
[831.66 --> 834.04] We can answer with Jesus, |
[834.38 --> 837.28] And stand against this temptation, |
[837.74 --> 839.22] Resist this temptation, |
[839.76 --> 840.36] To say, |
[840.72 --> 842.02] Are you really God's child? |
[843.66 --> 844.74] Yes, I am. |
[845.82 --> 848.68] I fully trust that God loves me, |
[848.76 --> 850.38] And that I am his child. |
[850.38 --> 855.14] We have our hope in our Savior and our God, |
[855.36 --> 856.64] Who is the bread of life. |
[857.84 --> 859.28] He is our only hope. |
[860.96 --> 862.42] And then at this point, |
[862.56 --> 865.12] I picture Satan kind of responding like this. |
[865.90 --> 866.72] Alright, fine. |
[866.84 --> 867.70] Great comeback, Jesus. |
[868.56 --> 871.94] You're right when you say that you are to fully trust God as God's children. |
[871.94 --> 876.14] But if you say that you live by God's word, |
[876.60 --> 879.54] Then jump off the top of this holy temple here. |
[879.86 --> 881.72] Because the word that you quoted, |
[881.82 --> 882.92] I'm going to quote myself, |
[883.32 --> 885.72] From God's holy scripture itself, |
[886.06 --> 886.86] It says, |
[888.36 --> 890.66] He will command his angels concerning you, |
[890.92 --> 892.88] And they will lift you up in their hands, |
[892.96 --> 895.22] So that you will not strike your foot against the stone. |
[895.22 --> 899.44] Satan, I should say, |
[899.74 --> 902.82] Is using again a snippet of truth and perverting it. |
[903.36 --> 903.74] Saying, |
[903.92 --> 905.56] Hey, the Bible you quoted, |
[905.68 --> 906.62] I'm quoting as well. |
[907.10 --> 910.20] The Bible says that you will be provided and protected for. |
[910.76 --> 911.78] So jump off. |
[912.34 --> 915.00] Again, it's the same temptation, isn't it? |
[915.60 --> 916.58] Prove your identity. |
[917.84 --> 919.30] Prove you are the son of God. |
[919.78 --> 920.78] Because it says, |
[921.06 --> 922.84] God's children will be protected for. |
[922.84 --> 926.44] The key here, |
[926.68 --> 928.76] Just like the temptation from before, |
[929.02 --> 933.88] Is to know and name the purpose behind Satan's temptation. |
[935.02 --> 936.30] What's his purpose? |
[936.64 --> 937.86] What does he stand for? |
[939.52 --> 944.26] He is trying to split the relationship between God the Father here, |
[944.40 --> 945.32] And God the Son. |
[946.04 --> 948.22] That's the purpose behind the temptation. |
[949.32 --> 950.06] In other words, |
[950.06 --> 954.18] If Jesus were to try and prove his identity by jumping off a roof, |
[954.44 --> 955.04] And in turn, |
[955.22 --> 957.16] Forcing God to act to protect him, |
[957.70 --> 961.80] It would be to prioritize his own privilege as God's son, |
[962.14 --> 963.34] Over and against, |
[963.50 --> 963.74] Again, |
[964.52 --> 965.94] Fully trusting in him. |
[966.66 --> 967.96] Fully trusting in God. |
[968.02 --> 969.04] That's what we're called for. |
[969.28 --> 970.74] But here in this temptation, |
[971.20 --> 972.14] It's to challenge, |
[972.42 --> 973.68] And flip that hierarchy, |
[973.90 --> 974.84] And say, |
[975.14 --> 975.96] And tempting us, |
[975.96 --> 978.48] If you really are the son of God, |
[978.52 --> 980.10] If you are God's child, |
[980.58 --> 981.70] You have to prove it. |
[982.34 --> 983.56] Make God act. |
[983.56 --> 990.02] You could think that jumping off the roof, |
[990.28 --> 990.58] Now, |
[990.66 --> 991.32] When I was younger, |
[991.44 --> 994.22] This is sometimes how I thought of in this temptation. |
[995.40 --> 996.46] Jumping off a roof, |
[996.54 --> 998.46] Isn't that like taking a leap of faith? |
[998.76 --> 1000.26] Like literally and figuratively? |
[1000.94 --> 1002.76] That you're testing your own faith? |
[1002.84 --> 1003.84] You're not testing God. |
[1004.08 --> 1005.06] Why would Jesus say that? |
[1005.28 --> 1006.74] You're testing your own faith |
[1006.74 --> 1009.02] To see if you really believe in God or not. |
[1009.02 --> 1013.46] But in this context, |
[1014.20 --> 1016.98] The specific purpose behind Satan's temptation |
[1016.98 --> 1018.92] Is to flip that hierarchy, |
[1019.12 --> 1022.26] To split that relationship between God the Father and the Son. |
[1022.72 --> 1028.00] Because it really is a testing and manipulating of God |
[1028.00 --> 1029.74] To follow our agenda. |
[1030.60 --> 1032.66] Not to fully trust in him. |
[1032.90 --> 1034.14] So in a simpler way, |
[1034.60 --> 1036.74] It would be to simply ask the question here. |
[1036.74 --> 1042.12] Do we follow God and fully trust in him? |
[1042.26 --> 1042.78] Bless you. |
[1043.74 --> 1046.50] Do we follow God and fully trust in God? |
[1047.00 --> 1047.46] Or, |
