Get to Gettin'

Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred. And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread. But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God. Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.-Matthew 4:1-11***After Jesus the Christ, the Son of God, was conceived of the Holy Spirit in the womb of Mary, a virgin, Jesus was born into the Israelite tribe of Judah to Mary and her husband Joseph when Mary was a virgin. On the 8th day after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary, Jesus was circumcised and given the name Jesus, according to the words spoken by the angel Gabriel to Mary and spoken to Joseph by an angel of the Lord. Twelve years after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary, Jesus remained in Jerusalem in Judea after Joseph, Mary and the others in their group were returning to Nazareth in Galilee, following the annual commemoration of the Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread. Approximately 30 years after Jesus was born to Joseph and Mary, Jesus went from Galilee to the Jordan River and was baptized by Mary's relative John the Baptist. When Jesus came up from the water, praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended as a dove and lit upon Jesus, and the Lord God in heaven audibly acknowledged his Son Jesus.-Genesis 11:26-50:26, Exodus, Numbers 20:1-29, 27:12-23, Deuteronomy 6:1-25, 8:1-20, 10:1-22, 31:1-30, 32:44-52, 34:1-12, Joshua 1:1-4:24, 1 Chronicles 1:1-34, 2:1-17, 3:1-24, Psalm 91, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Acts 1:1-26, 1 John

Thou shalt fear the LORD thy God; him shalt thou serve, and to him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name.-Deuteronomy 10:20
