lord jesus christ [Music] everlasting life [Music] [Laughter] look filled with the holy spirit jesus returned from jordan was led by spirit into the desert for four days to be tempted by the he ate nothing during and they were over was hung the devil said to him for the son of god committed this stone to come him [Music] does not live on bread alone then and showed him all kingdoms of the world a single instant the devil says to him i give to all this power memory for it has been handed over [Music] short the lord your god and him that he led him to jerusalem said to him if you are a son of god throw yourself down from here he will come his angels concerning you to you and their hands they will support you dash against a stone jesus said to him it also says don't afford your tests when the devil had finished everything he called him for a time the gospel of the lord i was sleeping through the radiations way back first wednesday and i laid on the cat channel which i will to you is not part rotation of what i present in the car frankly i try to use our escape time so it's kind of like bringing work home with i what might be one of the most understatements in the word of god and when he was hungry yeah yeah i could eat i i got to chuckle out of it think about it in the desert what possibly is a liquid past 40 days i don't know what you look like one day never know i've never done it and yet here we are jesus in this moment it's hard to imagine because we think of jesus christ the universe rightly so it's remember that we as christians jesus holy human body the human needs it helps us imagine that when scripture teaches us that jesus is like the things then including the guest of humor it is luck be hungry all these different first of we'll lose the knowledge of scripture alone does not animate our faith prank the knowledge of scripture alone it takes you have noticed the transition where the devil well if you're the son of god don't you become breath through that and then finally the devil is hurt let me when i say that the scripture as well as our best goal and probably people will throw yourself out of the town for thus it is written when we study scripture is after not understand scripture correctly because it did not lead back to the relationship with god it's important for us to remember christianity is not a study it is a life of that study second point is what we actually read in this situation but in the the first reading father aaron who went his hand to the land of egypt and there is a as an alien throughout all of that only does a speaking person take his family in the land of egypt anything that god heard their god the lord landed with their power god only yeah therefore i brought offering again everything that we're doing our faith practice lenten devotion [Music] begins from the activity of god and returns deeper with god again god and we see that if you are the son of god jesus but for the point point every step along the way is the devil is to set aside his relationship with command of these you can have all those things you can lower nation for yourself from the parapet of the temple and lord your god you can do all mice comes from the father third point as he ain't nothing during those days and when we were every [Music] god short window time temptation's not over for jesus the temptations were never over for the temptation [Laughter] number one and it's funny from somebody who is struggle is hard or if you have decided don't beat yourself too much but the lenten devotion picking up something for lent is just thing you can use to do if you want to it's not a regulation not a fundamental teaching of the church start off again consider it practical run that's one side the other side is that you just get through it never gets easy that can really be celebrate on on easter sunday fast and all the things and for all the times the show's not over it's over like jesus emotions only for a time which means we need to and keep progress she shows us this example of what it means to be in devote into the fall us believe in one god the father the almighty maker of all things visible and visible i believe in the lord jesus christ the only begotten god for the father before all judges god light from god through god begotten not substantial with the fire and by the holy spirit was incarnate of the virgin mary again for our in accordance with the scriptures and is seated at the right hand father and the son who with the father and the son glorified prophets even i could mercy we present our partitions
