I will give you all this authority and their glory, because it has been handed over to me, and I give it to whomever I wish.—Luke 4:6.

 

Satan and the demons use not only governments but also false religion and the commercial system to mislead “the entire inhabited earth.” (Rev. 12:9) Through false religion, Satan promotes lies about Jehovah. In addition, the Devil seems determined to make as many people as possible forget God’s name. (Jer. 23:26, 27) As a result, sincere individuals who think that they are worshipping God are deceived into worshipping demons. (1 Cor. 10:20; 2 Cor. 11:13-15) Satan also promotes lies through the commercial system. For example, this system often teaches people that the best way to be happy is to pursue money and gather many possessions. (Prov. 18:11) Those who believe this lie spend their lives serving “Riches” rather than God. (Matt. 6:24) Eventually, their love of material things can choke any love they had for God.

Most excellent talk! Comparing the temptations of Jesus to the temptations we are exposed to today! What may have been the another convenient times in Jesus day and what may they be in our day?

 

Any transcripts for this talk?

I really loved this comparison too. Made me think of what situations in my life could be presenting Satan with another convenient time. Excellent talk.

 

As for your eyes, straight ahead they should look, yes, your own beaming eyes should gaze straight in front of you - Prov. 4:25
