Reflection on Luke 4

Reflection on Luke 4

Luke 4
Jesus is the BETTER interpreter of scripture. He uses the word of God against the Devil to resist temptation, to correct the Devil and to attack and defeat the Devil by glorifying God and not idolizing greed, wealth, or power.

...But Jesus answered, 'The scripture says, 'Human beings cannot live on bread alone.' ” (Luke 4:4)

...Jesus answered, “The scripture says, 'Worship the Lord your God and serve only him!' ” (Luke 4:8)


...But Jesus answered, “The scripture says, 'Do not put the Lord your God to the test.' ” (Luke 4:12)

May our hearts and minds be immersed in God's word...every moment of every day.

May the truth of God's promises give us hope, faith and understanding to resist evil every day.
