1 | Why did Satan disrespect Jesus? | Matt 4:3 | JCrichton | 116601 | ||
Hi, Tyre! Part of the problem we have in interpreting the Bible is that we jump the gun... we see things from our perspective and not from God's; hence, we attempt to contain God in our limitations... (Please do not read anything into my words that would not suggest a simple and general statement!) I do undestand your confusion... but rather than define Jesus or limit Him, let's reread the passage: Then Jesus was led by the Spirit out into the desert to be put to the test by the devil... and the tester came and said to him... (Matthew 4:1-3) There was no surprise assault by Satan; Jesus was in a specific place and time, according to God's Will, in order to be tested, as in Job, by the devil! God Bless! Angel |

The spirit of debate is not of GOD. Maybe I mistated my interest. I was focusing on how Satan did not speak to God without being questioned and how he did not have this limitation with Jesus. I am simply seeking knowledge of the word. Teach with love. | ||||||

"The spirit of debate is not of GOD. Maybe I mistated my interest. I was focusing on how Satan did not speak to God without being questioned and how he did not have this limitation with Jesus. I am simply seeking knowledge of the word. Teach with love." Hi, Tyre! I apologize if I sounded coarse... Your statement sounded to me as though checking (questioning) Jesus Divinity... I have come across a few people whose agenda is to portray Jesus as a creature similar to the angels or perhaps even less than the angels... they surmise that since God cannot be tempted and the passage in Matthew 4 suggest that Jesus is being tempted then, to them, Jesus cannot be God... They reject all other Scritures that testify that Christ is God! Again, my sincere apologies for any disconfort that my post may have given you! Perhaps I should have simply noted that it was God, the Holy Spirit, who guided Jesus into the desert and who allowed the confrontation to take place... Jesus, as the obedient Son accepted the challange, as He did with Pontius Pilate and the crucifixion! God Bless! Angel |
