analysis knows, with Paul, that
there are two forces contending for
the mastery of his soul. Jesus DEM
onstrated, for all time, that the God
in man is mightier than the Satan
in man. Out of the wilderness
tempta ton emerges the tremendous
truth that God enables man to live
on higher levels and to be his best
self. A temptation may be an op-
portunity to rise higher, instead Of
to sink lower.
The Real battle-ground.
What happens in a persons soul
is the only really important concern
in life. Our world is askew and at
war today because we have adopted
a contrary policy. We put external
things first. We are daft over pos
sessions. Greedy nations have
pushed their national lusts even to
the point of war. Individuals con-
ceive of success only in terms Of
acquisition.
All too slowly-with the assent
of the psychologists and the agree
ment of really thoughtful public
personages-we are perceiving that
it is the spiritual side Of life which
truly matters. Our resources and
replenishments must come from
God-guided, God -girded and God
guarded souls. There is no mate
rial project before any nation today
that can effect the great change
needed to salvage civilization. Only
individuals whose lives are yielded
to God can do so.
Three major temptations came to
Jesus in the wilderness, and they
all spelled compromise. First, and
crassest, and freighted with imme-
diacy to a hungry body, was the
temptation to turn stones into
bread. "A man must live!" is the
common cry, although the noblest
figures on the panorama Of history,
with Jesus in the foreground have
shown that it is more important to
keep ones soul than to continue to
exist. Nobody is fit to live who has
not learned to subordinate desire to
duty, and to die for things more
important than life. That is why
we have our Valhalla Of heroes.
patriots and martyrs That is the
truth sustaining millions in this
present war.
Second OF the temptations of
Jesus was to show off His faith, in
needless exhibitionism. like the SEN
sational evangelist who publicly let
rattlesnake bite him. Gods care
is for our real necessities and not
for display. Satin quoted Scripture,
but missed the plain intent Of his
text. Jesus was not one to fall into
presumptuous sin.
Every public man has met the
third of the temptations which con-
fronted Jesus-to achieve his ends
by compromise; to turn away from
the hard, high road that led to
Calvary and to give the devil a
place in his allegiance. What a
timely book for politicians and busi-
nessmen could be written upon this
theme! We think of Munich, for
instance.
The answer of Jesus, which routed
the devil, was clearcut and un-
wavering assertion of the sole SOW
ereignty Of God Only He merits
our alteration and our service. When
God is given first place in a life,
sin and Satan are crowded out.
