Great message! I love the emphasis on the descriptive versus prescriptive interpretation that 99.9% of the time characterizes sermons on this text. Also appreciate the Romans 5 reference - that was the pivotal verse that changed my view of sanctification several years ago. Btw, are you familiar with the films, Last Temptation of Christ (1987)? Or Last Days in the Desert (2014)?
Thanks for the encouragement, brother! I greatly appreciate it. Studying Matt. 4 was a real treat, especially with a hermeneutic that focuses on Christ for us. I have heard of those films, but I’ve never seen them.
