A King by Grace (Part 2)

What does true righteousness look like? What motivates perfect obedience to God? In Matthew 4:1-11, the devil approaches Jesus for the purpose of revealing any hidden sin in Jesus that might disqualify Him as the Messiah. In His replies, Jesus explains why He refuses to participate in the devil’s temptations, and in so doing, He offers stunning insight into the character of genuine righteousness. In the second part of this four part series in Matthew 4:1-11, Ryan seeks to explain the character behind Jesus’ reply to the first temptation.
