With Jesus as our hero, our victory is sure. Because Jesus did finish the fight. He did go to the cross. He did sacrifice himself. He did die to ensure Satan’s destruction. And he rose again from death to take up a rule far greater than anything the Devil could give him. He rules a kingdom of peace and righteousness for all his people, where our sins are no more, where Satan cannot harm us.The battle of good and evil continues on in this life. So take up your sword, O Christian, and fight the good fight. You know whom you follow. In the battle of good and evil, Jesus overcomes.

Sermon on Matthew 4:1–11 by Pastor Seth Georgson
