OF JESUS CHRIST

I GOLDEN TEXT ? Where/ore in all
things It behooved him to be mado like
unto his brethren, that he might be a
merciful and faithful high priest In
things pertaining to God. to make %*uc
onclllatlon for the sins of the people
I Hebrews 2:17.

Baptited.

Test.

IC ? God's Victorious Son.
The baptism and temptation of
Jesus should not be thought of as
pnrt of his preparation t'or bis great
woi k, as Is represenetd by many writ
ers. 1 hey should rather be viewed as
the formal entrance of the Messiah,
the king upon his mission. In the
baptism we have the act of dedication
of himself to his work which made full
a righteousness, and In the temptation
J we hnve a record of Ids first official
, Conflict with the devil whose works
he came to destroy,
I I. The Baptism of Jesus, the Klna
(3:13-17).
I 1. Ills coming to John (v. 13).
I While the forerunner was discharging
his office, the king emerged from his
seclusion at Nazareth and demanded
baptism at John's hands.
2. John's hesitancy (v. 14). The
Incongruity of this demand with the
purpose of baptism brought from John
a protest, but upon Jesus' satisfactory
j explanation John baptized him.
! 8. The significance of his baptism
; (?. 15). Its significance is found In
harmony with the central purpose of
i his coming Into the world, which was
to secure for his people salvation
through death and resurrection. This
act was the official entrance upon his
work. It was an net of consecration
on his part to the woi k of saving his
people through sacrifice. Christ was
, baptized not because he hajl sinned,
J but because he took the place of sin
I ners to be a substitute for them.
! 4. Approval from the opened
i hea\ ens (vv. 1(5, 17). Immediately fol
i lowing his consecration to his work
| the heavens were -opened and the
I Spirit came and abode upon him, fol
! lowed by words of approval from the
Father.
i II. The Temptation of Jesus the
King (4:1-11).
i liils temptation was the opening
i battle of the dreadful conflict between
Christ and Satan. In this struggle
note:
1. The combatants (v. 1).
a. Jesus Christ? lie went Immedi
ately from the place of anointing and
heavenly recognition as the Son of Cod,
to meet the arch enemy of the race.
^ b. The devil ? The one with whom
Christ struggled here was a real, per
sonal being, filled with cunning and
malice, and possessing great power.
2. The battleground (v. 1). [t was
the wilderness of .Judea. The first
man was tempted In a garden with the
most pleasant surroundings, and failed.
The last man was tempted In a bare
wilderness, and gloriously triumphed.
3. The method of attack (vv. 3-0).
Since, as the Redeemer, Christ sus
tains to mankind a three-fold relation
ship? Son of man. Son of Cod. nnd
Messiah each relationship was made
a ground of attack.
a. As the Son of Man (vv. 3, 4).
The appeal was made to the Instinct
of hunger. Having been forty days
and nights without food as a normal
man, Jesus had a craving appetite.
While the appetite was not sinful, to
ha\e satisfied it in a wrong way would
have been sin.
b. As the Son of Cod (vv. .V7).? ft
was to test whether this personality
which had taken upon itself humanity
was divine. The devil rented from a
messianic Psalm to Induce .lesus to
presume upon Cod's care. Cod really
does eare for his own. hut to neglect
common precaution, to do the uncalled
for thing Just to put Cod's promise to
a test. Is to sin and to fall.
c. As the Messiah (vv. H. J)).
Christ's mission as the Messiah was
to recover this world from the dMl.
The devil offered to surrender to him
on tho simple con on that .lesus how
to the devil, thus obviating the r.^-es
fdt.v of the cross with Its shame and
suffering.
4. The defense (vv. 4. 7. 10) The
Instrument of defense was the word
of God. Christ met tho enemy each
time and repulsed him with "It In
written." Kach time he quoted from
Deuteronomy, tho hook which higher
critics would discredit.
?'?. The Is'u.e (v. II) The enemy
was completely routed. The strong
man was bound, making the spoiling
of his house possible.
