Temptation-September 26, 2015

I Corinthians 10:12-13 / Hebrews 2:17-18

Temptation

"Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted." Heb. 2:18

Fully human in every way Jesus was tempted in every way.

The very interesting question is this: Why Jesus was not tempted by women?

The answer is how He treats women in the following scriptures:

1. Mark 5:25 - He ignored impurity laws

2. John 4:1-26 - He talks to foreign women

3. Luke 10:38 - He taught women

4. Luke 8:1-3 - He include women as members of His inner circle

5. Luke 13:15-17 - He treated women as equal with men

6. Matthew 28:9-10 - He appeared first to a woman after His resurrection

7. Matthew 28

8. Luke 2:36 - He was concerned with the plight of widows

9. Mark 10:11-12 - Jesus changed the prevailing laws of divorce

10. Mark 12:18-20 - Jesus answers questions regarding levirate marriages
