Tempted in the Wilderness - 2 - Twisting the Truth
by Rev. Joel C Glenn
Type of Event: Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon
Date Recorded: 6 Nov, 2022
Location: Westville, RSA
Topics: Temptations / Addiction 
Last week we talked about resisting the urge to pursue pleasure above all else. This week we will look at the more intellectual side of temptation: the temptation to twist the truth to suit our own needs. This is represented in the Devil offering Jesus the kingdoms of the world, if only He would worship him. Jesus rebuked the devil, saying that God, and God alone, is to be worshipped and served. We are tempted to make ourselves the rulers and arbiters of what is right and wrong. Yet true freedom lies in serving the Lord and abiding by His rules for life.
