(Luke 22:31,32 and John 17:20,21). Christ said a new commandment I give unto you, that ye love one another as have loved you.

Check on Apple TV $6.99 monthly charge 10:00 AM - appointment with Dr. Smith, dentist for Debbie and me to get our teeth cleaned Note:  It has occurred to me over the last few weeks something I new but had not realized that one bookend to Christ's approximately 3-year ministry on earth was when he went into the wilderness and fasted for 40 days.  Then came the first temptation, it was physical.  Christ was hungry and the devil told Him to turn stones into bread.  Christ did not succumb.  The second was spiritual. Satan tells Christ, you want the people to believe you are the Son of God, then just jump off the pinnacle of the temple and angels will catch you.  When the people see this they will know you are the Son of God.  Neither did this work for Satan.  Then he played his trump card and a
