The Temptation of Jesus


Book Description

In setting forth this interpetation of our Lord's temptation in the wilderness, the writer's aim and method are very simple. The aim is, so to read and use every indication in the Gospel narratives, that the plain facts of them shall meet the reader's imagination, and be readily related with his experience. The method of this interpretation is nothing else than the keeping in view of this double significance: that of the facts, on the one hand, which concern our Lord; and that of their narration, on the other hand, which sends them on to us. - Preface.







Wilderness Skills for Women


Book Description

From Moses to Jesus, so many heroes of the Bible had to endure some type of wilderness season in their life, a time of testing that was painful to endure but ultimately brought glory to God. In Wilderness Skills for Women, rising author/speaker Marian Jordan sees the same thing happening today as she and her friends still find themselves going through periods of isolation, temptation, sorrow, and waiting. Whether it’s relationship drama, the constant pull of our sinful nature, a health issue, or any variety of unmet dreams, Jordan turns readers to God’s Word as the ultimate wilderness survival guide. Conversational and self-deprecatingly confessional in her delivery, this young writer finds ways to have fun with delicate subject matters, using wilderness analogies to great effect in chapters titled "Drink Plenty of Water," "Seek Shelter," and "Don’t Eat the Red Berries."




Temptation: Lessons from Trials in the Wilderness


Book Description

This book helps readers see how knowing the truth of our identity as born again believers in Christ Jesus liberates us from those mental and physical shackels that sin causes. Knowing the purpose and the background of temptation also equips us to more completely and permanently overcome. If it was as easy as Just dont do it, no one today would be suffering due to the consequences of self-indulgence associated with overeating, drug and alcohol substance abuse, hyper-sexual deviance, gambling, internet lusts, and all other addictions and snares of the enemy. My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge (Hosea 4:6 KJV) Certain portions of 'Temptation: Lessons from Trials in the Wilderness' are derived from question and answer sessions.
