Christ the Captain of the Tempted
Matthew 4:11
Then the devil leaves him, and, behold, angels came and ministered to him.


In the old Roman times, there was a great Roman general to whom one of his soldiers said: "Oh! the enemy are so many. We are not half so many as the enemy! The enemy is twice as many as we are." The general said to him, "How many do you count me for?" Do you understand? There are "more with us than there are against us." Jesus is with us. How many do you count Him for?

(J. Vaughan, M. A.)
