Reveal: Who We Are in Christ

Luke 4:1-12

“Jesus was tempted because God wanted us to understand that Christ had not come to earth as Israel’s Conquering King but as her Suffering Servant” ~Asil Treblig

God showed us through Christ’s temptation who we are in him…

1. Our Temptation: I am what I do.

Our Response: I am a child of God.

“We live by the full and complete counsel of God.”

2. Our Temptation: I am what I have.

Our response: I am a child of God.

“We live in covenant with God who owns everything.”

3. Our Temptation: I am what others think.

Our response: I am a child of God.

“We love a God who couldn’t be more proud of us.”
