Matthew 4:8-11 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him. |

Luke 4:5-8 And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time. 6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it. 7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine. 8 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Get thee behind me, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 1 Like |

Mark 1:13 And he was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him. The completing of a period number of forty (days, years) symbolizes completion of tribulation or suffering. The Meaning of Numbers: The Number 40 ...the number 40 generally symbolizes a period of testing, trial or probation. During Moses' life he lived forty years in Egypt and forty years in the desert before God selected him to lead his people out of slavery. https://www.biblestudy.org/bibleref/meaning-of-numbers-in-bible/40.html Jesus was living in the midst of with wild beasts during this 40-day period, it is not literal 40days but a period of time when he had to grow in the knowledge of the LORD, and learn to trust in the LORD. The wild beast are not literal beasts, but people who do not have the law of God inside them. Any one without the knowledge of God is a beast. Jesus had to live in the midst of wild beasts in his forty day tribulation enduring all kinds of temptation, but he overcame them all by the power of God 1 Like |

Psalms 22:19-21 But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me. 20 Deliver my soul from the sword; my darling from the power of the dog. 21 Save me from the lion's mouth: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns. Psalms 35:17 Lord, how long wilt thou look on? rescue my soul from their destructions, my darling from the lions. |

Our example of mighty men of faith who subdued mighty kingdoms through faith in God include Shedrach, Meshach, and Abednego (better Ananiah, Mishael, and Azariah) In the end, after the trial of their faith, they were greatly promoted, because they trusted in the God, the Almighty God, the Mighty One of Jacob. Daniel 3:14-30 14 Nebuchadnezzar spake and said unto them, Is it true, O Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, do not ye serve my gods, nor worship the golden image which I have set up? 15 Now if ye be ready that at what time ye hear the sound of the cornet, flute, harp, sackbut, psaltery, and dulcimer, and all kinds of musick, ye fall down and worship the image which I have made; well: but if ye worship not, ye shall be cast the same hour into the midst of a burning fiery furnace; and who is that God that shall deliver you out of my hands? 16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter. 17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king. 18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up. 19 Then was Nebuchadnezzar full of fury, and the form of his visage was changed against Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego: therefore he spake, and commanded that they should heat the furnace one seven times more than it was wont to be heated. 20 And he commanded the most mighty men that were in his army to bind Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, and to cast them into the burning fiery furnace. 21 Then these men were bound in their coats, their hosen, and their hats, and their other garments, and were cast into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. 22 Therefore because the king's commandment was urgent, and the furnace exceeding hot, the flame of the fire slew those men that took up Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. 23 And these three men, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, fell down bound into the midst of the burning fiery furnace. 24 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king. 25 He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God. 26 Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace, and spake, and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, ye servants of the most high God, come forth, and come hither. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, came forth of the midst of the fire. 27 And the princes, governors, and captains, and the king's counsellors, being gathered together, saw these men, upon whose bodies the fire had no power, nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed on them. 28 Then Nebuchadnezzar spake, and said, Blessed be the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, who hath sent his angel, and delivered his servants that trusted in him, and have changed the king's word, and yielded their bodies, that they might not serve nor worship any god, except their own God. 29 Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort. 30 Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in the province of Babylon. |

Daniel 3:29-30 29 Therefore I make a decree, That every people, nation, and language, which speak any thing amiss against the God of Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, shall be cut in pieces, and their houses shall be made a dunghill: because there is no other God that can deliver after this sort. 30 Then the king promoted Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, in the province of Babylon. The great Nebu, King of Babylon, acknowledged the Most High God when he saw his mighty salvation in the lives of Shedrach, Meshach and Abednego. He promoted them as a result of their unwavering faith in the LORD their God. Angels came to minister to the King of Angels when Jesus overcame Satan and his temptations |

Revelation 14:9-12 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, 10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: 11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. 12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus. |

MrPresident1: So you mean Satan was carrying Jesus about tempting him? Even Angels ministered to Jesus. But which mountain will one see all kingdoms of the world? |

AntiChristian: After Jesus was baptized at River Jordan and was acclaimed as the Son of God, it was the Spirit of God that led him to the wilderness. The reason is that Jesus after being anointed had to grow in the knowledge and might and power of the LORD. The time period of 40days is symbolic just as I explained earlier. The completing of a period number of forty (days, years) symbolizes completion of tribulation or suffering. The Meaning of Numbers: The Number 40 ...the number 40 generally symbolizes a period of testing, trial or probation. During Moses' life he lived forty years in Egypt and forty years in the desert before God selected him to lead his people out of slavery. https://www.biblestudy.org/bibleref/meaning-of-numbers-in-bible/40.html Jesus had to prove over a period of time that he had mastered his baser self which is what Satan always appeals to. Jesus had to prove that he will do only what pleases the LORD in all circumstances. He did this successfully. He put Satan to his heels; the devil fled from him. AntiChristian: Yes! The angels came to minister to their King. They came to support and exalt him. The Mighty All-Conquering Lion of the tribe of Judah. The Son of God. AntiChristian: One utterly fake and utterly blasphemous mountain like that jare . But this is what the LORD says will happen at the time of the end, the real mountain of the LORD will be established Isaiah 2:2 And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established in the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. In the last days, when the wicked have been destroyed and the earth is at peace, the mountain of the LORD's house shall be established on the top of the mountains and it shall be exalted above all hills; and all the nations of the earth shall flow into it because that is Zion, the city where the LORD dwells Isaiah 2:3-4 And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. 4 And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. |

Micah 4:1-3 But in the last days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the house of the LORD shall be established in the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow unto it. 2 And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem. 3 And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. |

Matthew 4:7-11 King James Version 7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God. 8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; 9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. 10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. 11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him. Mountains in the Bible represent nations and their ruling Ideology Micah 4:2. For example, America is the biggest mountain in the world today, and it is the ideology of mountain America that rules the world. Everyone wants to do like or copy the Americans Jesus will be taken up into a mountain, a very big mountain, where he will see all the riches and beauty and glory of the world, satan will promise to give him everything if he just bows down and worship him. Satan wan give Jesus big work hahahaha Satan, literally, will ask Jesus to commit suicide because by asking Jesus to bow down and worship him, Satan is asking Jesus Christ to commit suicide as death is the punishment for idolatry (Genesis 2:27). Satan is offering Jesus concentrated quick action deadly poison coated with a veneer of sugar. Glory to THE ALMIGHTY GOD forever, Jesus tells Satan to get lost! Afterwards, angels come to minister to the king of angels Mark 8:35-37 King James Version 35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it. 36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? 37 Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? |

Psalm 18:1-2 (King James Version) I will love thee, O Lord, my strength. The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower. |

Psalm 33:18-22 King James Version 18 Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy; 19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine. 20 Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield. 21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name. 22 Let thy mercy, O Lord, be upon us, according as we hope in thee. |

Mark 8:35-37 King James Version 35 For whosoever will save his life shall lose it; but whosoever shall lose his life for my sake and the gospel's, the same shall save it. 36 For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? 37 Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

The whôre Revelation 17:18 KJV And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth. Takes Jesus up a great mountain Matthew 4:8-9KJV Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them; [9] And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me. Jesus rejects the offer [to kill himself] Matthew 4:10-11 KJV Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve. [11] Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him. Jesus rejects idolatry Matthew 16:26 KJV For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? Judgment for the whôre Isaiah 13:19 KJV And Babylon, the glory of kingdoms, the beauty of the Chaldees' excellency, shall be as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah. |

Matthew 4:11 KJV Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him. Jesus overcame the devil by the word of the LORD. The LORD gave him strength to overcome the temptations of the devil. Imagine, the devil took him up into a great mountain and showed all the kingdoms of the world and the glories of them, it must have been a really tall and huge mountain, and he must have really taken him to the topmost top to enable Jesus to see all the kingdoms of the world and their glories, but in the name of the Almighty God, the creator of the heavens and the earth and all things there in, Jesus Christ overcame the devil and his temptation Matthew 16:26 KJV For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? And when he overcame, angels came to minister unto him; he acquired great spiritual powers |
