Matthew #3: The Crisis of the Christ
This lesson introduces the ministry of John the Baptist and describes Jesus’ victory over Satan’s temptations. John the Baptist prepares the way for Jesus and baptizes Jesus. After the baptism, Jesus goes into the wilderness led by the Holy Spirit and is tempted by the devil. Jesus confronts and overcomes the three-fold Satanic testing. Jesus’ victory over Satan demonstrates His right of place as the Messiah, a new Adam. Jesus puts God first; He doesn’t fall or fail; He remains sinless.

About this Plan
The first four books of the New Testament are called “gospels,” which means “good news.” They are fundamental to the revelation of God’s eternal plan to redeem and save lost humanity. They are often called biographies for they each tell the story of Jesus, his birth, ministry, death, and resurrection. The good news of the Gospels is that Jesus has come, that he is both Savior and King, and people can know this is true because God has raised him from the dead. This section specifically focuses on the longest of the four Gospels, the Gospel of Matthew.
