The Love That Overcomes

In this sermon Patrick McKee looks at two temptations by Satan recorded in the Bible. In Genesis 3 we see his tempting Eve where he was successful. In Matthew 4 we see his attempt to temp Jesus where he failed. Patrick shows us that Eve failed because she followed the pattern in James 1:13-15 that shows why we fail when tempted. Jesus on the other hand followed the instructions given in James 3:7-8 that show us when trials come we need to resist the Devil and draw near to God. Jesus was able to defeat Satan in all three temptations. We need to learn to follow the instructions in James 3 whenever trials come upon us.
