    Have you ever confused the means with the end? It seems the Pharisees who encountered Jesus had potentially misplaced their priority on the 'means' God had given (i.e. the Law) and their traditions, and in doing so had missed the 'end': the joy of relationship with Almighty God. As they challenge Jesus on His apparent disregard for the Law and tradition, Jesus seeks to clarify who He truly is and what it means to follow Him - part of which is to 'Keep the Main Thing the Main Thing'. In other words, continue to pursue Jesus - He is the Ultimate and all-satisfying goal. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    As we explore the temptations Jesus faced in the wilderness, we see that one thing the the devil is seeking to do is undermine Jesus' TRUST in God's Provision, Plan and Power. Followers of Jesus often find the same temptations, so what joy we see in Christ's victory over these temptations, and what hope we have in knowing that we TRUST in the same God of provision, who's plan is good and who's power is unmatchable. May we grow in our knowledge of God's Word, and in doing so, we grow in our love for God, which will enable the "exclusive power of a new affection" (Thomas Chalmers), when we're faced with the temptation to sin.You can watch this message via: https://youtu.be/ispHCzA-N5s Hosted on Acast.
