The Temptation of Jesus
Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
-
Then the devil *took Him along into the holy city and had Him stand on the pinnacle of the temple,
-
Again, the devil *took Him along to a very high mountain and *showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory;
-
Then the devil *left Him; and behold, angels came and began to serve Him.
-
and the enemy who sowed them is the devil, and the harvest is the end of the age; and the reapers are angels.
-
“Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, you accursed people, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels;
-
for forty days, being tempted by the devil. And He ate nothing during those days, and when they had ended, He was hungry.
-
And the devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”
-
And the devil said to Him, “I will give You all this domain and its glory, for it has been handed over to me, and I give it to whomever I want.
-
And so when the devil had finished every temptation, he left Him until an opportune time.
-
And those beside the road are the ones who have heard, then the devil comes and takes away the word from their heart, so that they will not believe and be saved.
-
Jesus answered them, “Did I Myself not choose you, the twelve? And yet one of you is a devil.”
-
You are of your father the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth because there is no truth in him. Whenever he tells a lie, he speaks from his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies.
-
And during supper, the devil having already put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, to betray Him,
-
You know of Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed Him with the Holy Spirit and with power, and how He went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.
-
and said, “You who are full of all deceit and fraud, you son of the devil, you enemy of all righteousness, will you not stop making crooked the straight ways of the Lord?
-
and do not give the devil an opportunity.
-
Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil.
-
and not a new convert, so that he will not become conceited and fall into condemnation incurred by the devil.
-
And he must have a good reputation with those outside the church, so that he will not fall into disgrace and the snare of the devil.
-
and they may come to their senses and escape from the snare of the devil, having been held captive by him to do his will.
-
Therefore, since the children share in flesh and blood, He Himself likewise also partook of the same, so that through death He might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil,
-
Submit therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
-
Be of sober spirit, be on the alert. Your adversary, the devil, prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour.
-
the one who practices sin is of the devil; for the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The Son of God appeared for this purpose, to destroy the works of the devil.
