Bigs/Elementary Discussion Questions

Why was Jesus in the wilderness? (The Spirit sent Him there to pray, fast, and be tempted by Satan; Mark 1:13; Matt. 4:1-2)
What did Satan tempt Jesus to do? (turn stones to bread, jump off the temple, and worship atan to get riches and power; Matt. 4:3,6,9)
How did Jesus fight against temptation? Jesus quoted Scripture to remember what is true; Matt. 4:4,7,10)
Why do we face temptations?
Guide kids to think about why Satan wants people to sin. Remind them that Satan wants to prevent people from glorifying God and keep Christians from living the way God has commanded us to live. We also have sin natures that desire sin and selfishness. We are tempted when we dwell on sinfulness and when Satan tries to get us to disobey.
Can we resist temptation?
Discuss the diffe ence between people who trust in Jesus and people who do not. Help kids see without Jesus, we cannot avoid sin. Remind them, though, that everyone who trusts in Jesus has the Holy Spirit living inside. Christians can use the power of the Spirit and the Word of God to fight temptation and obey God.
Why is it important to resist temptation?
Help kids see that Christians cannot lose their salvation when they choose sin, but sin still dishonors God, hurts us, and hurts those around us. We resist temptation not to earn God’s love, but because we love and trust God that His commands are good for us.
