Does Jesus dare us to follow him so we may attain salvation? Answer: No, Jesus doesn’t dare us in the way you use the term. Those who dare us that way do so out of pride, not love, so that they might trip us up in some way and thus tempt us to needlessly prove ourselves in...
3 The devil said to him, “If[j] you are the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”[k] 4 Jesus answered him, “It is written, ‘Man[l] does not live by bread alone.’”[m] 5 Then[n] the devil[o] led him up[p] to a high place[q] and showed him in a fl...
