Sermon Info:
In our day, people do not want to submit to authority. Our sinful nature wants to be the authority. But there is only One who possesses the authority that we think we have. And he has authority in his teaching, over darkness, & in battle.

The King has come. So, this means the Kingdom follows him. What is the call of the Kingdom? What is the goal of the Kingdom? And what is the cost of the Kingdom? We consider all three in this passage.

Sermon Info:
We often read the temptations in Matthew and Luke as guides to defeat temptation. Though methods may be useful in avoiding temptation, there is more to it than that. There is something other-worldly happening here. There is something more about the temptation of Jesus in that it is the temptation of Jesus! Why was he tempted? And what is the difference between his temptation and ours? Because that helps us to answer, how do I have victory over temptation?
