    (4:8-9)
    Satan here says he can give Jesus all the kingdoms of the world. He does not appear to be lying—Jesus does not say that he isn't able to give these. This then implies that Satan owns all the kingdoms of the world (see also Psalm 2). Government was first founded by Nimrod as a rebellion against God (according to Josephus) and continues to be against God. This has libertarian implications.
  • Wayne on Matthew 4 - 8 years ago
    V.17, Jesus didn't say to b baptized for salvation. He stated repent, for the kingdom of Heaven is at hand.
  • I AM on Matthew 4 - 8 years ago
    Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself as it were for a little moment, until the indignation be over past. Behold, God himself is the judge, fear him: leave off from your sins, and forget your iniquities, to meddle no more with them for ever: so shall God lead you forth, and JESUS, who is the CHRIST, shall deliver you from all trouble. AMEN
  • A disciple on Matthew 4 - 8 years ago
    Matthew 4:4 "..Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." This most important and fitting response was to the temptation to use His divine power to serve His natural human needs and the devil's thoughts, that "God helps those who help themselves." Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness for the express purpose of fasting and prayer to commence His Service to the Father and our redemption and with that, being put to the test by the devil. Having committed Himself in the Spirit, it was not for Him afterwards to "save Himself" and rescue the flesh from its inconveniences and discomforts BY HIS DIVINE AUTHORITY! We belong to God and have committed to follow Jesus Christ and be led by His Spirit: we do not afterwards worry about rescuing ourselves from what we are appointed by God to encounter, in the things He has directed for us to serve Him.

    The devil tried to temp Jesus but Jesus was not falling for the devil lies .its sad how some saved people don't no the difference between the devil spirit and JESUS U see Jesus knew the devil he once was in Heaven he was one of the angels in heaven he wanted to take over in heaven so The devil and all of the ones like him got thrown out of heaven by Jesus Test the Spirit is it Jesus

  • Ray321 on John 10 - 8 years ago
    John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: Jesus said to the Disciples follow me. Matthew 4:19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. Now Apostle Paul said follow me . 1 Corinthians 11:1 Be ye followers of me, even as I also am of Christ. Now Jesus is using Paul for us Gentiles to follow him. I follow Paul thru Jesus Christ our Lord

    Matthew 4:4
  • Michael on Matthew 4 - 8 years ago
    I just noticed how God called to brothers. Simon and Andrew were brothers and James and John were brothers. I can see God creating a deeper love when It involves family. Maybe even an ability to sustain a follower if there family is also involved. Amazing food for thought.
  • Jason on Matthew 4 - 9 years ago
    I love my God
  • LadyA on Matthew 4 - 9 years ago

  • BSP on Matthew 4 - 9 years ago
    I'm verses 8 through 10 we see that Jesus did not let his eyes dominate him. He immediately rejected Satan.
  • Candee derragon on Matthew 4 - 9 years ago

  • Kenzie on Matthew 4 - 9 years ago

  • Gregoire Adams on Matthew 5 - 9 years ago
    Matthew 4: Did King Herod Have all of his Families children killed ?

    How old was Jesus ?
  • God's Handmaiden on Matthew 4 - 9 years ago
    Many times people are born into the Kingdom of God and are asked to be witnesses and lead people to Jesus. What is to be understood is effective witnessing has to be taught. Jesus told his disciples to follow him, and that he would "make" them fishers of men.
  • Henry on Matthew 4 - 9 years ago

  • Mary L. Brown on Matthew 4 - 9 years ago
    Everynight i feel like God is in my life. I was addicted to drugs and God saved me from the devil. When I read Matthew it remind me of all the great things that he has done for me. Thank You Father for your grace and mercy. You are wonderful.
  • James on Matthew 4 - 9 years ago
    Thank you Jesus for all you have done for us and thank you GOD for having your word put down so that we may have a better understanding of what we need to do
  • Wayne - 9 years ago
    Matthew 4:17. When Jesus began preaching He said, Repent. For the kingdom of Heaven is at hand.
  • Eric on Matthew 24 - 10 years ago
    Matthew 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Mark 1:15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. Romans 13:12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. 2 Thessalonians 2:2 Read whole chapter See verse in context That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand.
  • Mary ann grays on Matthew 4 - 10 years ago

  • Constance on Matthew 4 - 10 years ago
    Words to live by.
  • MockingBird on Matthew 4 - 10 years ago
    Jesus was being tempted of the devil here : Jesus was hungry : the tempter knew that : So with me us : The devil sees in me what I lack and tempts me to turn things around to his way of thinking and act on something that may be very harmful to me : Jesus was in the wilderness to be tempted of the devil : the Spirit of God led Him there , every temptation that Jesus faced was for my our sakes , as Jesus overcome so we can and do overcome : A temptation is a thing that you have a strong desire for : a fleshly desire. Is my hunger greater than to do what God says !!!!
  • James moore on Matthew 4 - 10 years ago
    Our body needs bread, earthly food. Our spirits need HEAVENLY FOOD, "GOD'ST WORD". HALELUJAH, JESUS IS "THE BREAD OF LIFE".
  • Jeffery diviney on Matthew 4 - 10 years ago
    Its a very revealing chapter. Its very interesting how even Satan quoted the word off god.verse 6 corresponds with psalms 91:12..... So let all gods people stay on guard.for evil ones are very clever and cunning. God bless....
  • Lucinda Palestrant on Matthew 4 - 10 years ago
    Matthew 26:41 "Watch ye and pray lest ye enter into temptation: For truly the spirit is ready, but the flesh is weak."
  • Dennis on Matthew 4 - 10 years ago
    Christ teaches us that we resist temptation by knowing the Word of God.
