by believer
s. laird/k. bachman/j. daub/j. winters/
intro: the birth
movement i: the lie
the fruit from the tree was so
pleasing to my eye. the serpent
said that i would not die.
the serpent shall be cursed, he
will crawl about and eat dust.
i will put enmity between the
woman and you. man will crush
your head, you will strike his heel.
the wisdom of the world will be
mine if i eat. what can it hurt
if i take it and eat?
i will greatly increase the woman's
pain, when bearing children all of
your days. you will desire man.
he will rule over you.
take some, man. gain wisdom, too.
eat from the tree.
it's what you must do.
the land will be cursed because of man.
producing thorns to make him bleed.
by your sweat you will live until death.
dust you are and to dust you will return.
gen. 3:1
movement ii: the truth
(then Jesus was lead by the spirit intothe desert to be tempted by the devil.
after fasting 40 days and 40 nights, he
was hungry. the tempter came to him
and said...)
if you're the Son of God, tell these
stones to become bread.
man does not live on bread, but by
words from the mouth of God.
if you're the Son of God, throw
yourself to the ground.
God will save you.
but it is written; do not put your
God to the test.
all the world i give you. if you bow
and worship me.
leave me now and worship the Lord
your God. serve him only.
when satan left him there the
angels came to him.
temptation lost.
matthew 4:1-11
movement iii: the key
evil scheming, wicked violence,
and such is the end of all with ill
gotten gain.
hatred rejection, mocking others,
this takes the lives of those with ill
gotten gain.
do not walk on paths of the wicked.
they are the darkness and they
don't understand.
the path of the righteous first
dawns, gleaming, shining brighter
'till the full light of day.
do not offer body to sin.
offer yourselves to God as those
brought to life.
therefore put on the armor of God,
so when that day of evil comes, you
can stand your ground.
pr. 1:19, 4:14-19 ro. 6:13 ep.6:13-14
