International Sunday School Lesson for January'
fiAPnSM AND TEMPTATION OF JESUS^
^ Matthew 3
N
12
Though we. spend six months in
studying the life of Christ as record
ed in Matthew, many imiportant items
are omitted in the selected'portions
pij^, Scri[^ure. It will be necessary for
each stw^To study 3he inierVehing
facts. This time bMome well acquaint
ed with John the Baptist. Rehd Luke
1 and Matthew 3. John wm really an
Old Testament chaincw. Jesus says
of him that no one born of woman
was greater, ’^its appreciation is rea
son enough tor careful research.*
In Luke 2:40-52 you will have a fas
cinating glimpse at the growing Jesus,
when he was 12 years old and made
the trip to the Passover feast at Je-
a
rusalem. Then '‘mere were 18 more
growing years at Nazisreth in Galilee.
At laft .the tiin« O^.Hk jpblic minis
try arriVed aifd Re . appears at the
Jordan where John ..is preaching his
denunciations against sins, together
with a fervent appeal to make confes
sion of sin through the form of bap
tism. One day Jesus asked for such
baptism, not because He was a sinner
but that he might thus formally take
man’s law-place with respect to sin.
John at first declined to act but yield
ed at the command of Jesus. It was an
act of wondei*fuI humility also on the
part of the Son of Ckgl.
.Forthwith testimony was given* by
the Father that was evideht to all.
The Holy Spirit, in the form of a dove,
descended upon Jesus Christ, and the
voice of Jehovah was heard in the
words of our Golden' Text: “This is
my Moved Son, in whom I am well
pleased.” This testimony was most
convincing to John and very hearten
ing to Jesus as He thus entered upon
His public mission, during which he
was to suffer many things and at last
be crucified on the cross at Calvary.
Here is a manifestation of the Trinity,
the Father, Son and^H^fy Spirit—the
th^ee’Peribns in Godhead.
Heights and depths can follow in
quick jsuccession in our lives as well
as in that of the Master Teacher. Nu
merous major purposes converge dur
ing the following forty da^of temp-
tatibn in the wilderness. Jesus sought
retirement that He might give further
thought to all the meaning of the bap
tism and the active presen«?e of the
Holy Spirit. Those wjjo believe in the
growing consciousness of Jesus con
cerning His mission will declare that
for the first time He fuUy realized
what he must updertalfer^thers are
sure that He«knew the purpose of His
life even when he talked to the doc
tors of the law at the age of twelve
in Jerusalem’s temple. From the stand
point of God it was a period of pro
bation. The devil used the occasion as
a time of the grossest temptation.
•Herein was a time of tragedy that has
been used as a setting by the great
poet 'Milton. Read both “Paradise
Lost” and “Paradise Regained.”
In brief, during those forty days
Jesus was tempted with all the temp
tations that have come to mankind.'
“He was tempted in all points like as
we are, yet without sin.” There was
a pause and Jesus became conscious
of the hunger and weaxness due to
those days of continuous fasting. At
t
that strategic moment Satan uses the
[three-fold temptations recoVded in our
lesson text and Jesus parries aacW
tack by His steadfast JTalth in
Father. The reply is in Scripture
tation. At last Satan is unmasklidl
when the calls him by name. Tht
glotMous picture is when angda c4Mia
and minister to the Victor. All of if
can stand'in the midst of any tnnipii
tion as we contend against SgtM fal
