Poem
Jesus replied, "Are you in error because you do not know the Scriptures or the power of God? (Jesus was replying to questions presented to him by the Sadducees concerning marriage in the kingdom of heaven.) When the dead raise, they will neither marry nor be given in marriage; they will be like the angels in heaven (they will not become angels). Now about the dead raising (they didn't believe in the resurrection of the dead nor angels.) --have you not read to book of Moses, in the account of the bush, how God said to him, "I am the God of Abraham, the God Issac and the God of Jacob. He is not the God of the dead, but the living. You are badly mistaken." Mark 12: 24-27. Jesus Comforts His Disciples "And do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going." John 14:1-4 Jesus the Way to the Father Thomas said to him, " Lord we don't know where you are going, so how we know the way? Jesus answered, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really knew me, you would know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and me." John 14:5-6. Submit Yourselves to God "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." James 4:6 Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners and purify your hearts, you double minded. Grieve, mourn, and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves to the Lord, and he will lift you up. James 4:7-10. During all three of his wilderness temptations, Jesus resisted and he also rebuked the devil and caused him to depart from him for a season and for other opportunities. By quoting the holy Scriptures of God, he is instructing us that we are also willing and also able to defeat the devil by quoting Scriptures ourselves. This writer only used two out of three of his temptations and not in order of their occurrences. The very first one invokes the hungry Jesus turning bread into stones, but Jesus countered with: man does not live by bread alone but by every word that comes out of the mouth of God.
