Today is day 281 and we are studying The Second Commandment.

281. How was Jesus tempted to break the first two commandments?

Satan tempted Jesus to bow down and worship him, promising him an earthly kingdom without the pain of the Cross. Instead, Jesus served and worshiped God faithfully and perfectly all his life, and calls us to do the same. (Matthew 4:1–11; 16:24; Luke 22:41–44; Philippians 2:8)

We will conclude today by praying The Collect for the First Sunday in Lent found on page 605 of the Book of Common Prayer (2019).
