Temptation of Jesus in the wilderness 1906 lesson
After his baptism Jesus is led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by Satan. The seed of probation tests his Messiahship, underlining that temptation strengthens character, while yielding weakens. Jesus fasts forty days and rejects Satan’s offers, citing Scripture to affirm reliance on God’s word over physical needs. He resists pride and power, choosing obedience and God alone, with angels ministering after the struggle.
