Tempted and Tried

August 14, 2016 Speaker: Vlad Burlaka Series: Special Services & Stand Alone Sermons

Passage: Matthew 4:1–11

Matthew 4:1-11

Jesus was the greatest preacher that ever lived. He embodied truth. He lived it out. His life was a picture of what how we ought to live. And in Matthew 4:1-11 we see a picture of Jesus fighting temptation.

This passage is a helpful break between Colossians 2 & 3, and will give us some helpful pointers on how to put off, on how to say no to sin, in how to grow in spiritual maturity.

If we are serious about fighting temptations and about spiritual growth than this text will help. We look at 5 steps to fight temptation.

  1. Cling To Christ
  2. Rely On the Spirit
  3. Know the Strategy
  4. Be Prepared
  5. Respond Properly
