Scripture
When you’re in the wilderness, how do you handle the trials, the difficulties, and the temptations?
In Luke 4, we have a famous passage about the temptation of Jesus in the wilderness. Jesus is assaulted by the Devil, and he deals with it through the Word of God. We’re going to look at how Jesus uses Scripture, and how, in a practical way, we can too.
This text shows us 1) the depth and complexity of evil, 2) some of the strategies of evil, and 3) how to defeat evil using Scripture.
This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on March 9, 2014. Series: Knowing Jesus. Scripture: Luke 4:1-13.

Spot on. I don’t want to drop political notes, but the present situation in the world and what’s happening in the Middle East, as in referring to this teaching, is proof positive of what ambition pride and the desire for power influence can do to bring evil upon so many. The word of God is quick and powerful, it’s wonderful and Tim’s teaching is just a spot on. Thank you
