Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.
Matthew 4:1 NIV

The one who does what is sinful is of the devil, because the devil has been sinning from the beginning. The reason the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil’s work.
1 John 3:8 NIV

In seeing this world is run by the evil one
That lost its dominance from Spirit of Jesus
But God's plan was through His Son 
We might escape this bondage of death
It's available for all but we need His promised spirit
To come and intervene within all of us
Where do people go to find this love
For the places of worship are in division
How could it be Jesus was a servant to all
It's not that we loved Jesus but He loved us
And many in these times believe they need 
Mansions, jets, luxury cars to
parade around in to tell of Jesus 
Confusion upon those of the prince of this world
Jesus came to set us apart from our own evil desires
Please forget most this world has taught one
And seek the truth for yourself
May God's promised indwelling spirit
Begin to reveal all the hidden treasures
And mysteries within of what's going on around us
And what God' has prepared to do within one
It's the same spirit working within each
That none should boast
But those that boast should be God the glory
A tree can not grow by itself
But needs to gain light , water and soil
And pollination to rebirth 

And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. ’
Matthew 6:13 NIV

When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death.
James 1:13?-?15 NIV

For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.
Romans 1:16 NIV

Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world.
James 1:27 NIV

This is the one who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ. He did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who testifies, because the Spirit is the truth. For there are three that testify: the Spirit, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement. We accept human testimony, but God’s testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son.
1 John 5:6?-?9 NIV

The gospel should be the fulcrum of our existence. No one need be lost if such person asks for pardon. The thief on the cross is a fine example.

Indeed, if we could return or be good in our own works to please God, Jesus death is in vain , but we all have been given same access through His promised spirit to become one family of God , how glorious that would be if all glory was given to God not seeking praise of man but a servant unto each other in One ,Accord and harmony, One God ,One Shepherd, One Flock, May God bless, comfort, guide and fill you with His peace, love, spirit and joy in abundance: ). Myself was useless as a branch to start a fire , but through God's mercy and grace new life was breathed within

As a tree cannot grow by itself without light, water or soil, we can have no inner life without the spirit of God coming to dwell within us. Big mansions or luxury cars cannot satisfy us, but the spirit of God will give us lasting joy and peace of mind. Thank you Stephan for your affirmation of some invaluable truths !

It's for the love of humanity and unity , I thought I would be banned a long time ago, just for telling what Jesus can do within one, I am not out to judge any but seek judgement on myself moment by moment that God might create within what He sent His Son to die for, May God bless, comfort, guide and fill you with His peace, love, spirit and joy in abundance, listening to the audio Bible is my source, i am just a simple truck driver cruising in the presence of God surrounding , May God surround you in His presence of peace, comfort, joy and a love for all to come to know Him,
