Wrath against Christ
“And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.” Luke 22:40
The temptations that assail the children of God are to be regarded as the outworking of the wrath of Satan against Christ, who gave Himself as a sacrifice for our sins, and redeemed us by His blood. Satan is filled with wrath against Jesus. But he cannot hurt the Saviour except by conquering those for whom Christ died. He knows that when through his devices souls are ruined, the Saviour is wounded. {2Manuscrpt Releases 343.1}
