September 17, 2025

Summary

All who call on the name of Christ are in a lifelong battle. That’s why we have been given the armor of God: five pieces for self-defense, and one weapon for offense. In this message from Matthew 4, Pastor Lutzer exposes three temptations Satan gave to Jesus. Jesus shows us, more than anyone else, how to wield the Word of God against Satan.
