These days in our modern world we are able to constantly know what’s going on all over our city, all over the world, at all times. It can be frightening and exhausting. It can seem like our world is just an endless cycle of people and things getting worse. People are more and more divided that ever before; war seems to be building everywhere. More and more ethical and moral compromise are demanded of Americans every day. The Bible says that all of this was put in motion the moment that the first man Adam responded to the invitation “You can be just like God.” But what if we could have a do-over, a second chance to go back to the garden and win this time? The Bible says we can. We are in a series looking at the person and work of the Holy Spirit throughout the Bible. Last week we looked at the unique coming of the Holy Spirit to Jesus at His baptism, and this week we will look at the Spirit leading Jesus into the wilderness to make a new way for humanity.
