Sermon on the Mount E24 \u2013 Many of us first learned the King James translation of the final, personal request in the Lord\u2019s Prayer: \u201cLead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.\u201d But does God actually lead us into temptation? In a motif that weaves throughout the Hebrew Bible, we see God allowing tests to strengthen his partnership with humans. When this motif picks up in the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus is the one experiencing testing. In this episode, Tim, Jon, and Michelle explore the theme of testing and temptation throughout the Bible and in the life of Jesus. From his own experience, Jesus teaches us to pray for protection from temptation and for rescue when it comes.
