In many New Testament translations, Jesus' words were displayed in red, making it easier to find the location of the Bible. However, the familiar word of Christ found in the Old Testament is so powerful and inspired, but for some reason the editor does not display these words in red, so many people are missing it.
The Bible draws life as a courtroom scene. The devil is called a "whistle", assumes the role of the prosecutor and points out people's mistakes and sins. Father is regarded as the right judge, and Jesus is called "advocate" like the counsel's role. Although the devil has issued "guilty" all day, it is Christ who simply answers "not guilty."
The reason is that by his death he committed our sin and made it nailed to the tree. The Bible talks about the work of the devil who guarded people for fear of death and judgment, what Jesus tried to destroy. As the story expanded in scripts, harassment eventually lasted long enough. Just at a good timing, it is said that Christ was born, "Words made meat", and heaven invaded the earth.
To my surprise, as the Christ had prepared to be reborn as Bethlehem's Baby, in the Old Testament there is a wonderful statement on behalf of the devil in the same verse telling death and resurrection .
That word is in Isaiah 50: 8. "Why is my enemy close to justice and who will contend with me? We shall stand together: Who is my enemy? As NIV says," Who is sin to me Let us face each other, who is my accuser?
With amazing interactions, we see the living Christ challenging the demons of battle. "You bothered people for a long time, why do not you try with me? You want to reach them, and you must come through me!
I forget Jesus' soft mural in many movies. This is the Scripture of the Supreme Commander, which confronts pure evil for you and me. The king of the universe is on your side, eventually the devil misses the chance. Because Jesus is standing between him and you. The words made meat.
