Preparing yourself for the study of God’s Word
Before we begin, only if you are a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ (that is; you have believed [trusted] in Him for His promised gift of eternal life) John 3:16, John 6:47 as a few examples; it is very important to prepare yourself to learn God's Word so the Holy Spirit can teach you as to what your reading or hearing is true or false. To be taught by the Holy Spirit you must be filled with the Holy Spirit which means abiding in Christ. To place yourself in fellowship with God the Holy Spirit [also called abiding in the Christ], take a moment to simply name, cite or acknowledge [confess] your known unconfessed sins privately to God (i.e.; with your thoughts directed only to God the Father). Why? Because you cannot grow spiritually if you’re not abiding in Christ [in fellowship with Him] when you take in bible truth.
1 John 1:9, says: “If we confess [meaning to simply name, cite or acknowledge to God the Father] our sins [known unconfessed sins], He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins [known sins] and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness [all unknown and forgotten sins];” NKJV (New King James Version); we call this REBOUND; read the full doctrine as to “why” we need to use 1 John 1:9 to grow spiritually. Left click the following link to learn more and fully understand the doctrine of Rebound; which answers the question, why do I need to keep confessing my sins all the time? REBOUND
If you have never personally believed in the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior (that is, believed in Him for eternal life), the issue for you is not to name your sins to God; the issue for you is to believe by faith alone in Jesus, The Christ alone for eternal life [salvation] and you will be saved [receive Eternal Life] the very micro second you believe in Him:
John 6:47 says: “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me [Jesus Christ] has everlasting life.” NKJV
Notice again what John 6:47 says, “he who believes in Me [Jesus Christ] has everlasting life.” It doesn’t say, “will have”; it says, “has.” Therefore, the very moment you believe Jesus Christ’s promise of everlasting life, you have it (it’s really just that simple), and it can never be lost or taken away from you (John 10:28-29). Furthermore, the gift of everlasting life (also called eternal life in scripture) is available to every human being; there are absolutely no exceptions.
John 3:14-18 says: “And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness [Num 21:4-9], even so must the Son of Man be lifted up [the cross], that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” NKJV
Let us now bow our hearts and take a moment to prepare for learning God’s Word, if there is any known sin in your life, this is the time to just cite it privately to God the Father with your thoughts directed towards Him. With your head bowed and your eyes closed, you have total privacy in your mind and soul:

NOTES
Unlike the bible study, these notes are not just for reading without watching the video. These notes are more designed to follow along during the sermon and to bring up the “hover pop-up scripture references;” if just hover doesn’t work, do a “control-left-click,” if that doesn’t work then look them up in your Bible when the Pastor asks everyone to turn to that passage in their bibles.
Internet Church Service – August 27, 2023; The Angelic Conflict - Part 34 is in HD Audio ONLY; with hover pop-up scripture references in Notes.
The Angelic Conflict - Part 34 - The first one is the temptation to rely on self rather than the ministry of Holy Spirit, Mat 4:1-4, Luk 4:1-4.
When God performs a miracle, it requires only His sovereignty [will].
To apply Bible doctrine and advance in the plan of God through the use of that doctrine is the greatest power and the highest function that any member of the human race can attain.
Bible doctrine is the very thinking of Jesus Christ, 1Co 2:16, and it is the word of God, a reference to God Himself, John 1:1.
Prayer and miracles are false solutions to suffering!
Under the PPOG [Predesigned Plan of God, strength is provided through the power of the Spirit (Acts 1:8), and the power of the word of God (Heb 4:12).
You do not pray for a miracle or the removal of the suffering like Paul did in 2Co 12 with the thorn in his flesh!
It is easy for God to perform a miracle - only the sovereignty and omnipotence of God is involved.
It is more difficult for God to give maximum blessing to a believer because that involves the volition of the believer and his faith and trust in the character and nature of God.
What does prove something is when the believer advances to spiritual maturity and can take any pressure provided by Satan.
There is an allotted time in your life ordained by God for you to go through undeserved suffering.
Phil 1:29 “For to you it has been granted for Christ’s sake, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake”
2Ti 2:3 “Suffer hardship with {me}, as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.”
Deut 8:3 “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.”
This temptation was designed to lure the humanity of Christ away from reliance upon the omnipotence of the Father for His logistical grace, and the omnipotence of the Holy Spirit inside the PPOG.
Satan’s main goal is not to get the believer to sin, but to get the believer to become independent from God.
Satan tempts us to step outside of God’s provision and do it on our own!
Heb 4:12 For the word of God is alive and powerful
Satan is an invisible enemy, and all demons that operate under his command are invisible to us!
1Jo 4:4 You are from God, little children, and have overcome them; because greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world.
All spiritual victory in the angelic conflict is related to the Word of God.
The second test that Satan put the Lord through was to test our Lord’s relationship to the plan of God for His life, Luk 4:5-8, Mat 4:8-10.
a. “Avoid the purpose of the Father’s plan for the incarnation and by-pass the cross, and I’ll promote you” - says Satan.
b. “Avoid the purpose of the Father’s plan for the Second Advent; take the crown or the kingdom now!”
TLJC [The Lord Jesus Christ] is pointing out to Satan that all creature obligation and loyalty is to the plan of God in the sense of serving Him!
“it shall be all yours” = Satan, instead of serving God, is seeking to hinder the believer from serving God by offering the believer the things of this world.
The third and final test has to do with our Lord's relationship to the word of God.
The first test had to do with our Lord’s relationship to the ministry of Holy Spirit, who is the third Person of the Trinity.
The second test had to do with our Lord’s relationship to the plan of God the Father for His life, the first Person of the Trinity.
The third test had to do with our Lord’s relationship to the word of God, the second Person of the Trinity.
pinnacle = pteurgion = the edge or highest point on the temple, Herod’s porch - a 450 foot drop!
Satan is now quoting Psa 91:11-12, with a false application = correct doctrine, false application!
False application of doctrine is always a distortion of scripture.
TLJC has already resisted the temptation to act independently of the Holy Spirit and the Father’s plan for the incarnation.
False application of a true doctrine is a very subtle attack from the kingdom of darkness.
It is not part of the Father’s plan for the humanity of Christ to do an absurd and foolish thing!
God does not condone senseless and unreasonable action!
Deut 6:16 “You shall not put the Lord your God to the test”
Our Lord used scripture; the greatest power God has ever given is Bible doctrine! James 4:7 Submit therefore to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Mat 4:11 Then the devil left Him; and behold, angels came and began to minister to Him.
minister = diakoneo = to serve, wait upon someone, wait at a table and to offer food and drink to the guests.
The first one is the temptation to rely on self rather than the ministry of Holy Spirit, Mat 4:1-4, Luk 4:1-4.
When God performs a miracle, it requires only His sovereignty [will].
To apply Bible d
octrine and advance in the plan of God through the use of that doctrine is the greatest power and the highest function that any member of the human race can attain.
