Christ Tempted

A short film illustrating Christ's forty days in the wilderness where, prior to beginning His earthly ministry, He was tempted by Satan... yet without sin.
Whereas some dialogue was added to further the narrative-- every bit of Christ's dialogue was carefully chosen and adapted from other parts of scripture with much prayer and study.
The true account can be found in fourth chapter of the book of Matthew.
Shot in the spring of 2012, nearly 50% on green screen on a shoestring budget from the director's pocket.
Shot using:
Canon 5D Mark II
Canon 7D
Canon 60D
Edited with Adobe Premiere
Color Grade with Adobe After Effects & Lightroom

HE defeated satan when he was at his weakest...40 days 40 nights without food or drink of water. Thank you Jesus for craving my path!

"Remember Your Place!" Strong Words for all those even me, who has sinned.

I love when Jesus turned to him, like who you think you talking to, you done forgot! That was a Great Part. Remember your place.

What’s Amazin is that the devil doesn’t even have to appear to man, he is the constant whisper in our heads, bringing about doubt, fear, lust, temptation, gluttony, and worst of all anger. We must learn to doubt every thought and trust God.

Jesus is the only way to resist temptation from the devil

Jesus Christ healed me! This is my story about my healing!I was extremely ill! I had diabetes and kidney failure, which urgently requires dialysis! I prayed to God to heal me, not for me, because I don't deserve it, but for my little children, who were left without a mother! in exactly that day, in which I prayed, the Lord healed me! I suddenly felt the pain in my kidneys go away, as well as the dryness in my mouth (diabetes). I'm a new women now! I thank the Lord for His mercy and love for us!!

Satan doesn't stand a chance against our Lord 👊🔥

[edwinsoita]

Jesus defeated the devil with the word of God: so in order to defeat the devil we must know the word.

[alwin]

Man shall not live by bread alone but every word that comes from mouth of god

[anthonyskumars]

Lord please save us from all temptations🙏🙏🙏

[sabrinaroy]

Hes my superhero. We need to humble ourselves and resist temptation and fast because we love him. He suffered so much for us!!! Love him so much.❤

" For it is written, you shall not put the Lord God to the test"

[JESUSCHRISTISLORD]

When you are tempted, turn to Jesus and rebuke the Satan. If you fail (sin) we have an advocate before the Father in Christ Jesus. Repent! and sin no more in Jesus name. For you are called to be a holy people set apart and redeemed by our Lord. Be strong in the Lord and put on the armor of God so when the day of testing comes you can STAND Ephesians 6:10-18.

This is breathtaking. Thanks for creating. May Our Lord bless you.

[paulzembal]

I'm so happy to see all my brothers and sisters of the faith expressing their love for Jesus Christ. It shows how he has touched all of our hearts. Praise Jesus Christ forever! Amen

6:14 - I love that part. Jesus Christ looked at Satan like he crossed the line. Then the Devil disappears when Jesus said, "Get behind me SATAN!"

Satan knows bible very well than us. Faith in God alone brings victory
