#126: 2 Cor 4 & Luke 4: Who's In Charge Around Here?

from What in the Word? · host Miriam Fisher

In this episode, we examine two passages to answer the question of whether Satan truly rules the world or has god-like authority over it. We examine Paul’s context in 2 Cor about spiritual blindness and what Satan’s influence is, then look at Luke 4 and think about what Jesus is really doing there in his answers to Satan. In the end, Jesus holds final authority, models how to resist temptation, and urges us to focus on guarding our faith and serving God alone, no matter how things look or what anyone might say.   If you have a bit of the Bible that makes you wonder, email [email protected], and we'll try to cover it.
