He must have been a power fully dramatic figure, his leathern girdle about Ma loins, eating his locusts and wild honey, and denouncing the emin ent Pharisees and Sadducees as a "generation of vipers." Who bath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bring forth therefore fruit* meet for re pentance: And think not to lay within your aelve*, We have Abraham to our father: for I tay unto you, that God ii able of these stonet to raiae up children unto Abraham. Jesus felt the contagion of the movement. He also went to John and asked to &e~?aptized, and John looking up and seeing* the bank uttered a noble testimony to the sort of boy and young man that Jesuq^jB^^avCj* I have need to be baptized of thee, and corneal . thou to me? it is noteworthy that no Sense of guilt or shfcaie appears to have had a part in (lis religious experience at this point. He did not argue with John about their relative fitness to baptize each other. He felt that the spirit of devotion which was in Him demanded some outward expression, and John's way, through baptism, was the way that presented itself. It was a wonderful day for Him. He had made His de cision. He had put the old life behind Him. John, His popu lar and powerful cousin, had recognized His inherent power. - From thenceforth He would be a carpenter no longer, but a preacher like John, rebuking men for their sins, calling them to repentance. The day ended, night fell, and with it came the reaction. He went away into the wilderness and remained for more than a month in solitude, tortured by questionings ' and doubts. He felt power stirring within Him. How should He use it, and for what? The Gospel narrative dramatizes that period of self-searching by the appearance of Satan in person, with a three-fold temptation. And when the tempter came to him, he said. If thou be the Son of God, command that these (tones be made bread. The temptation to use His power for material success ? ^ money, comfort, ease. Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple. And saith unto him. If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself t down. The temptation to achieve cheap fame by performing wonders Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high moun tain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; And saith unto him. All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. The temptation to become a political leader, to use the popular discontent and His strategic position as a working man's leader ?s a tool for His own advancement.
