Day 22
Titus 3
10Warn a divisive person once, and then warn him a second
time. After that, have nothing to do with him.
11You may be sure that such a man is warped and sinful; he is
self-condemned.
Matt 4
1Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by
the devil.
2After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry.
3The tempter came to him and said, "If you are the Son of God,
tell these stones to become bread."
4Jesus
answered, "It is written: 'Man does not live on bread alone, but on every
word that comes from the mouth of God.'[1] "
5Then the
devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the
temple.
6"If you are the Son of
God," he said, "throw yourself down. For it is written:
" 'He will command his angels concerning you,
and they will lift you up in their
hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'[2]
"
7Jesus
answered him, "It is also written: 'Do not put the Lord your God to the
test.'[3]
"
8Again, the
devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the
world and their splendor. 9"All this I will give you," he
said, "if you will bow down and worship me."
10Jesus
said to him, "Away from me, Satan! For it is written: 'Worship the Lord
your God, and serve him only.'[4]
"
11Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him
