He knew His Bible, and made use of it.<\/p>\n<p>From the very start of His ministry, Jesus answered the temptations the Devil presented by quoting from Scripture.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Mat 4:3  And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.<br \/>\nMat 4:4  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.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Again, the Devil tried another approach to tempt Jesus:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Mat 4:5  Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,<br \/>\nMat 4:6  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.<br \/>\nMat 4:7  Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The Devil tried his hand against Jesus yet again:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Mat 4:8  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;<br \/>\nMat 4:9  And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.<br \/>\nMat 4:10  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.\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Did you notice, each time Jesus answered Satan&#8217;s temptation with &#8220;it is written.&#8221; Jesus quoted directly from Scripture, appealing to Deuteronomy 8:3, Deuteronomy 6:16, Deuteronomy 6:13. Notice that Satan knows the Bible too, and Satan quoted the Bible to challenge Jesus, quoting from Psalm 91:11. In answer to Satan&#8217;s Biblical challenge, Jesus answered, &#8220;It is written again,&#8221; quoting Deuteronomy 6:16 in answer to Satan&#8217;s mistaken use of Psalm 91:11.<\/p>\n<p>Satan did not heed the rule of correct Bible interpretation that forbids using one Scripture in a manner that contradicts clear truth taught in other Scripture that has a bearing upon the subject.<\/p>\n<p>Jesus proved Satan wrong by quoting Scripture that contradicted the use Satan was attempting to make of Psalm 91:11.<\/p>\n<p>Satan is not the only one who violates Rule 6 of the 23 Rules of Interpretation I have posted in the October, 2010 Archives on this site.<\/p>\n<p>Here is Rule 6:<\/p>\n<p><strong>6<\/strong>.  Interpret a particular passage in harmony with ALL other passages which may have a bearing upon the subject. <\/p>\n<p>This is exceedingly important. You cannot cherry-pick your evidence. All relevant evidence must be taken into account to come up with the correct interpretation. Groups like the Jehovah&#8217;s Witnesses, the Roman Catholics, Calvinists, Seventh Day Adventists, the Church of Christ, and many others flagrantly violate this rule and come up with very mistaken interpretations of the Bible. <\/p>\n<p>To successfully find ALL the relevant passages about a subject, you MUST do <strong>Real Bible Study<\/strong> and make full and careful use of such tools as an exhaustive concordance to the Bible (<em>Strong&#8217;s Concordance<\/em> is a  good choice) and a source of full and complete cross references to every verse in the Bible (such as <em>The Treasury of Scripture Knowledge<\/em>, <em>The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge<\/em>, or <em>Nelson&#8217;s Cross Reference Guide to the Bible<\/em>). If you haven&#8217;t made full use of these resources don&#8217;t kid yourself into supposing you have properly considered ALL the passages pertaining to the subject, issue, or doctrine you are considering.<\/p>\n<p>Considering how many individuals, churches, denominations, and especially false cults violate or disregard Rule 6, Satan either has plenty of company, or lots of helpers in his mission to distort, hide, and suppress the truth of the Bible.<\/p>\n<p>Another equally important Rule of Interpretation is Rule 7:<\/p>\n<p><strong>7<\/strong>.  Be sure to include all relevant passages upon a theme before determining the interpretation of any particular passage. <\/p>\n<p>This principle is violated by every denomination or religious group. Jehovah&#8217;s Witnesses think they understand such Bible terms as &#8220;soul,&#8221; &#8220;spirit,&#8221; &#8220;hell,&#8221; and other terms more accurately than others do. Their problem is that they have failed to make a full induction of all the evidence before arriving at their conclusions about the meaning and use of these terms in the Bible. I have presented a full induction of all the evidence on these issues in <em>The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge<\/em> and <em>Nelson&#8217;s Cross Reference Guide to the Bible<\/em> starting at the notes at Genesis 2:7.<\/p>\n<p>Seventh-day Adventists are as mistaken on the issues of &#8220;soul&#8221; and &#8220;spirit&#8221; and such matters as conscious existence after death as the Jehovah&#8217;s Witnesses are. They are fully mistaken in their understanding of the Fourth Commandment regarding the Sabbath, and the issue of Law in contrast to Grace as taught in the New Testament Epistles. Virtually all their arguments fail because they violate Rule 7. Their system of belief cannot accept, nor can it account for the fact that there has been a Divinely instituted change since Calvary. This change has been expounded in detail by the Apostle Paul (Ephesians 3:1-12). Our Lord Jesus Christ in person revealed His Gospel to the Apostle Paul directly (Galatians 1:12). Paul declares he was not taught the Gospel by men (Galatians 1:12). Those who teach Another Gospel, which is not the Gospel, are, according to the Book of Galatians, under a Divine curse (Galatians 1:8, 9). Critical truths pertaining to just what the true Gospel is are revealed in connection with Paul&#8217;s teaching regarding what are called &#8220;mystery doctrines.&#8221; On this theme, follow the cross references I have furnished at Romans 16:25 for the key words <strong>the mystery<\/strong> on page 1301 of <em>Nelson&#8217;s Cross Reference Guide to the Bible<\/em>, or the note on this subject which I placed in <em>The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge<\/em>, at Romans 16:25, on page 1322.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Rom 16:25  Now to him that is of power to stablish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery, which was kept secret since the world began,\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>From <em>The New Treasury of Scripture Knowledge<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p>     25.  <strong>to him<\/strong>.

The fact that there are stated to be such new teachings is proof enough that there has been a change in God&#8217;s manner of dealing under Grace compared to how He dealt under Law.         <\/p>\n<fb:like href='https:\/\/www.realbiblestudy.com\/?p=198' send='true' layout='button_count' show_faces='true' width='450' height='65' action='like' colorscheme='light' font='lucida grande'><\/fb:like><span class=\"fb_share\"><fb:like href=\"https:\/\/www.realbiblestudy.com\/?p=198\" layout=\"box_count\"><\/fb:like><\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It would be a good idea for us to do what Jesus did: teach directly out of the Scriptures.
