    The Devil Made Me Do It!

    Contributed by Tammy Garrison on Mar 11, 2002
    based on 18 ratings
     | 4,875 views

    Set against the motif of a melodrama, the temptation of Jesus is examined through our temptation to be self-centered, to compromise Christian ideals, and to avoid self-sacrifice and suffering

    Bibliography: Finding Christ, Finding Life: Temptation When I was younger - much younger, I put all my energies into acting and the theater. I remember when I was 14 and my family moved from the metropolis of Pasadena, TX. to a small town in rural Arkansas. I was devastated that there were no ...read more

    Travel with me to Peter’s mother-in-law’s home in Capernaum, a place of miracles and rest for Jesus.

    There are two great stories in the Bible about mothers-in-law. In the Old Testament we read about Ruth’s mother-in-law, Naomi. In the New Testament we read about Peter’s mother-in-law, laid up with a high fever. Both of these ladies were great women of faith. This miracle gives a rare glimpse ...read more

    4 - Tempted In The Wilderness

    based on 38 ratings
     | 12,689 views

    Jesus was tempted, yet He didn’t succumb to the enticement to sin. Jesus Reigns!

    Satan tempts Jesus three times, and Jesus isn’t in his full strength at that point. He actually had just fasted forty days in the wilderness. Luke 4 gives an account of Satan’s tempting of Jesus, as does what we have read in Matthew 4. As we go further into the Gospels, a lot of harmony ...read more

    No matter how dark the day may appear, keep dreaming of the possibilities God has in store for those who love Him.

    Dream on! Luke 4:16-30 Cecilia had a dream. She didn't dream to live among the aristocracy or to be adorned with the finery of high society, she already had tasted of that lifestyle, but it left her cold and empty. Cecilia, who lived in the second century, was a child of the aristocracy, the ...read more

    Christmas is more than tinsel and bows, it is the birth of our Savior and what He has given to us.

    Christmas Is More Than A Feeling Luke 4:18-21 So much of Christmas has been hijacked by popular cultural and transformed into something it was never meant to be. For anyone who has ever read the Christmas story it is quite apparent that all of the trappings that are considered "musts" for ...read more

    Looking behind the temptations of Jesus in the desert and how the Devil uses the same design of temptations on us today.

    March 4, 2001 Luke 4:1-13 Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the desert, 2 where for forty days he was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry. 3 The devil said to him, “If you are the Son ...read more

    God is with us in the wilderness of our lives just as God was with Jesus in the wilderness when he was being tempted by Satan.

     | 3,200 views

    Having grown up in hte desert, I know how harsh the place is and how tempting the options presented by hte devil really are. On the surface the temptations seem harmless and perhaps even good in the right hands but they all take our attention off God.

    I grew up going to the desert, and thought that I knew what the desert lands are all about. I’ve been camping many times in the Anza Berrego wilderness and understand that the desert is a harsh and foreboding place. I know to stay on the trails, look for snakes and take lots of extra water. I ...read more

    Jesus was tempted just like we are.

    Back in 1988, director Martin Scorsese made a film that caused a furor in this country from coast to coast. It was a film about Jesus, and people were demonstrating against it and picketing and threatening to blow up theaters if they showed it. The name of the film was The Last Temptation of ...read more

    Learning the strategy and intentions behind Satan’s temptations placed on Jesus.

    IT HAS HUMOROUSLY BEEN SAID THAT, "IT’S EASIER TO ASK FOR FORGIVENESS THAN IT IS TO ASK FOR PERMISSION." WHEN IT COMES TO THE CHRISTIAN LIFE THIS IS DANGEROUS. DANGEROUS, BECAUSE IT IMPLIES THAT ONE WOULD RATHER GO ON JUSTIFYING LIVING WRONG THAN FACE THE ACCOUNTABILITY OF ADJUSTING THEIR LIVES ...read more

    “Then he brought Him to Jerusalem, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, ‘if you are the Son of God throw yourself down from here…’ And Jesus answered and said to him, ‘it has been said, ‘you shall not tempt the Lord your God’” Luke 4:9-

    I am told that one of the hottest shows on Television these days is called "Temptation Island." It is a ’reality’ show like "Survivor". Four unmarried couples, who are in long-term relationships, are taken to a Caribbean island for two weeks to test and explore the strength of their commitment. ...read more
