Presentation transcript:

Luke 22: And the Lord said, "Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. 32 But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren."

Luke 22: And the Lord said, "Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. 32 But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren." (vv.14-23) Jesus institutes L.S. (vv.14-23) (vv ) Dispute over who is greatest (vv ) (vv ) Predicts Peter’s denial (vv ) The Context:

Luke 22: And the Lord said, "Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. 32 But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren." He Would be Tempted He Would Yield He Would be Restored The Lord Knew Three Things About Peter

Peter Was a Likely CandidateForTemptation Occupied a distinguished place among disciples Rash – eager to speak & answer (Matt. 15:15; 16:13-18, 22-23; Jno. 13:8-9) Overconfident: “I will never” (Matt. 26:33; Luke 22:33)

Luke 22: And the Lord said, "Simon, Simon! Indeed, Satan has asked for you, that he may sift you as wheat. 32 But I have prayed for you, that your faith should not fail; and when you have returned to Me, strengthen your brethren." Temptation & The Tempter What Is To Be Done About It

I. The Tempter

Identified as Satan (v. 31) A. Is Real Not imaginary or a myth Just as real & alive as when  Tempted Eve (Gen. 3:1-6)  Tempted Jesus (Matt. 4) Peter learned this well (cf. 1 Pet. 5:8)

I. The Tempter Identified as Satan (v. 31) A. Is Real B. Character Subtle (2 Cor. 11:3) Hates righteousness (1 Pet. 5:8) Murderer (John 8:44) Liar (John 8:44) Persevering (John 8:44) Successful (Matt. 7:13-14)

I. The Tempter Identified as Satan (v. 31) A. Is Real B. Character C. Purpose Have you (v. 31) Sift you (v. 31)

“Sift You” “to sift, shake in a sieve” (Thayer) “Grain was agitated or shaken in a kind of fan or sieve. The grain remained in the fan, and the chaff and dust were thrown off. So Christ says that Satan desired to try Peter; to place trials and temptations before him; "to agitate him" to see whether anything of faith would remain, or whether all would not be found to be chaff-mere natural ordor and false professions.” (Barnes)

“‘He has challenged you’, has undertaken to prove you a company of hypocrites, and Peter especially, the forwardest of you." Some suggest that Satan demanded leave to sift them as their punishment for striving who should be greatest, in which contest Peter perhaps was very warm: ‘Leave them to me, to sift them for it.’" (Matthew Henry)

I. The Tempter Identified as Satan (v. 31) A. Is Real B. Character C. Purpose Have you (v. 31) Sift you (v. 31) Devour (1 Pet. 5:8)

I. The Tempter II. Intercession of Christ

A. That Peter’s Faith Fail Not B. Prayer / Intercession Worked C. Intercedes For Us (Heb. 7:25) Prayed For Peter & Told Him So
