When pondering Jesus temptations, do you find it as staggering as I do, that Gods Chosen was somehow physically propelled by the devil both to the top of the temple and later to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. (Matthew 4:5,8)? What I find even more astonishing than the devil physically moving the eternal Son of God is that from no mountain in the world could anyone see all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. Somehow, the devil not only moved Christ to the exact geographical point where he wanted him, but the devil violated the holy mind of the Son of God and gave him a supernatural vision of worldly kingdoms. If even the Lord of lords could be subjected to satanic, supernatural signs and visions, it is clear that signs and visions must never be automatically accepted as being from God. Like our Leader, we must refuse to be swayed by them but must stubbornly cling to Scripture, just as Jesus, in response to each of the three powerfully persuasive temptations, had to slice through the deception by declaring, It is written . . .
