The Temptation

Immediately following Jesus’ baptism, Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted for forty days. Satan was there waiting to tempt Him. In the Lord’s Prayer, we ask God to lead us not into temptation. Did God lead Jesus into temptation? In this message, Dr. Sproul explains the dual meaning of temptation and the significance of Jesus’ victory in the desert.
