Jesus Faced the Same Temptations

The Moses and Plantation Anecdote

Consequences of Adam's Sin

Finding Redemption in Christ

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/1837920/open_sms">Send us a text</a>The ancient pattern of temptation that led to humanity's fall continues to affect us today. Dr. Papa takes us deep into Genesis 3:6, revealing how Eve's three-part temptation—finding the forbidden fruit appealing to her body, emotions, and mind—perfectly parallels the "lust of the flesh, lust of the eyes, and pride of life" described in 1 John 2:16. When Jesus came as the Second Adam, He faced these identical temptations in the wilderness. While Eve questioned and ultimately rejected God's Word, Jesus defended Himself by quoting Scripture—a powerful model for our own spiritual battles. Dr. Papa shares a thought-provoking anecdote about a plantation worker named Moses who, given an easy job with just one restriction, couldn't resist looking inside a forbidden box. This humbling story reminds us that we're likely no better than Adam when facing temptation. The consequences of Adam's sin are catastrophic—we inherit spiritual death, blindness, and bondage. Romans 5:12 tells us both sin and death entered the world through one man's disobedience. Yet there's hope! Through Christ, the Second Adam, we find the path to redemption. By recognizing our sin, repenting, and receiving Jesus as Savior, we experience the transformative power of His perfect obedience. As the Sunday school children affirm: "What can wash away my sin? Nothing but the blood of Jesus."
