The account of Jesus being led out into the wilderness to be
tested by the devil is familiar and is found in all three
Synoptic Gospels. Like tests in school, the question behind the
challenges Jesus faces is "Have you internalized what you have
been taught?" This lecture will look again at this familiar story
and some of the Old Testament texts behind it as we seek to
answer the question, "What had Jesus internalized that allowed
him to pass the test?" and to discover what the answer might
uncover in our own hearts as we seek to walk in the way of Jesus.
