Never did Christ deviate from loyalty to the principles of God’s law. Never did He do anything contrary to the will of His Father. Before angels, men, and demons He could speak words that from any other lips would have been blasphemy: “I do always those things that please Him.” John 8:29. Day by day for three years His enemies followed Him, trying to find some stain in His character. Satan, with all his confederacy of evil, sought to overcome Him; but they found nothing in Him by which to gain advantage. Even the devils were forced to confess: “Thou art the Holy One of God.” {8T 208.1}

Kristus blev aldrig illoyal mod Guds lovs principper. Han gjorde aldrig noget der var imod sin faders vilje. For engle, mennesker og dæmoner kunne han sige ord som fra andre læber ville have været blasfemi: »Jeg altid gør, hvad der er ham velbehageligt.« Joh.8,29. Hans fjender fulgte ham dag for dag i tre år. De prøvede at finde en plet i hans karakter. Satan forsøgte, med hele sit onde forbund, at overvinde ham; men de fandt intet i ham, som kunne give dem fordele. Selv djævlene var tvunget til at bekende: "Du er Gud den Hellige.”
