The timing of this event is not a coincidence. Just after Jesus is baptized, and just before He launches His ministry that will change the world––Jesus is fasting in the wilderness for forty days and nights when He faces the enemy. Jesus overcame temptation and will help us overcome temptation as well, by choosing truth and rejecting lies.
“For in that He Himself has suffered, being tempted, He is able to aid those who are tempted.”
A child with only 33 years to live is being hunted… armed soldiers are marching to Bethlehem with orders to kill… The child’s name, unknown to them, is Jesus––A child hunted as an enemy of the state…
The Murderous Man who wants Jesus dead, was given the title, ‘King of the Jews’ by the Roman Senate. He’s so obsessed with his power that he will kill for it––even family members, even children to keep it. Why is This Child a Threat? Why are Assassins Hunting down a Child? This is more than a children’s story, this is part of the invisible war.
Understanding the Invisible War and How to Win the War Within
Sermon Series: The Invisible War. This is a new focus of study on the spiritual war for our minds and souls.
“We have found all the questions that can be found. It is time we stopped looking for questions and started looking for answers.”
–G.K Chesterton
We all have questions––especially after the year we just went through! Questions are good––when they cause us to search for the answers. Questions are not good when used as an excuse to avoid the answers we don’t want. Aristotle wrote: “All men by nature desire to know.” We desire to know the truth.
The title of the last book of the Bible is taken from the Greek word: Apocalypse. The Apocalypse of Jesus Christ: Translated ‘Revelation.’ Apokalypsis: means “to uncover, to draw back the veil of what was previously hidden.” Revelation Pulls Back the Veil and Uncovers the Reality Behind History. An Invisible War We Would Not Have Known About––Except By Supernatural Revelation––given to the last living Apostle, banished to the Alcatraz of the Ancient World: Island of Patmos…
Throughout this study on KNOWING GOD we have studied almost 20 divine attributes of God. In this final lesson of the series we see an application for us.
Romans 8:28 tells us that God works all things for the good of those those who love Him and are called according to His purpose… “And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.”
But What is His purpose? (8:29) “For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son…”
We are to be conformed to the image of His Son! To Become Like Christ!
