The Temptations of Jesus Were Real!

Temptation 3
Satan took Jesus to the highest place of the temple of God. He used scripture to tempt Jesus to avoid a lot of trouble and pain, and get the attention of people the flashy, easy way. The scripture used spoke of any person of God...not just Jesus. If Jesus did this, it would not prove he was the Son of God.

 "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from here: 'He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.'."
Psalms 91:11,12

Jesus' Answer
"It says, ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’."
Deuteronomy 6:16

Deuteronomy 6 tells of how Israel complained about having no water. They tested the Lord.
