1 | Get behind me, who? | Matt 16:23 | Aixen7z4 | 97590 | ||
This seems to have taken us back to the case of Jesus and Peter. A believer may be confident that he is being led by the Lord and moving in his will. He is prayed up, tuned in, with antenna adjusted when another believer intervenes to take him aside and turn him aside. This reminds me of something in Pilgrim's Progress, but we need not choose it over scripture. I do not know whether Peter had been sent by Satan or to what extent he was there identified with Satan, but our Lord's words to him were strong. I do not know whether his salvation was in question. But something caused Jesus to look at him and say, "Get thee behind me, Satan!" I trust that after this discussion the Spirit of the Lord would have taught us to at least be careful. I agree that a true believer in the Lord Jesus Christ cannot be demon-possessed. The extent to which we can be influenced by him or used by him, I would prefer not to know by experience. It says, "The Spirit that lives in us wants us to be his own completely." But God shows us even more kindness. So place yourselves under God's authority. Resist the devil, and he will run away from you. Come close to God, and he will come close to you. |

And can't say why Jesus said this at this time exactly. But the main leason to it is. Jesus can't see satan behind Him. That goes for us christians if Satan is behind us our focus can be on Jesus. If he is in front of us and can see "him" then we can and will be tempted without our eyes on Jesus. | ||||||
3 | Get behind me, who? | Matt 16:23 | fran1946 | 97593 | ||
Jesus said this , because Peter was rebuking him when he (Jesus) was telling them what was going to take place and what was going to happen to him. Jesus was letting the deciples know that he (Jesus) was going to suffer many things, but Peter did not want to hear this so he (Peter) rebuked him (Jesus) and this is when he said get thee behind me Satan thou art an offence unto me. be blessed. |

Greetings Fran, Probably the best thing to do with DarcyA is just to ignore him, since his posts hardly make any sense to the topic at hand. Blessings to you, Makarios |
