Did Jesus tell Satan that God alone should be worshipped?

Question

Matthew 4:10

Answer 1

Mat 4:8 Again the Devil takes Him to a very high mountain, and shows to Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory.
Mat 4:9 And he said to Him. I will give all these things to You if falling down, You will worship me.
Mat 4:10 Then Jesus said to him, Go, Satan! For it has been written: "You shall worship the Lord your God, and you shall serve Him only." Deut. 6:13

Answer 2

Yes he did. He was confronted by the same one who was the power behind the serpent in Eden, who ages before had rebelled and now was out to thwart the fulfillment of Genesis 3:15. Satan wanted to break the integrity of the promised Seed. Wise to his crafty acts, Jesus firmly rejected the Tempter. But what did Jesus then tell Satan? 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.
What was Satan’s reaction? “So the Devil, having concluded all the temptation, retired from him until another convenient time.” Satan frustrated, left him, “and, look! angels came and began to minister to [Jesus].”—Luke 4:13; Matthew 4:11.
Jesus did not say "worship me Satan for I am God" but told him to go away and worship God alone. Do you think that Satan would even try to tempt Almighty God? God cannot be tried or tempted, but Satan knew that Jesus could be, or he would not have made the effort. We are all thankful that Jesus remained loyal to his Father in heaven and did not allow Satan to win.

Answer 3

The quote, "Then Jesus said to him, "Begone, Satan! for it is written, 'You shall worship the Lord your God and him only shall you serve.'" I'm guessing yes. You see, although Satan may have fallen from his position in heaven as the most powerful and loyal angel (he had sixteen wings), he is still in a way under God's control; God allows Satan to tempt humans and torment them to test us and see which ones of us are worthy and can pass Satan's trials and temptations. That is an agreement I believe for them to have made upon Satan's descent into the Abyss (a.k.a. Hell). So, overall, the answer to your question is yes. Why do you ask????????????????????

Answer 4

Matt 4
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.

Yes!

In a deeper study, from that moment to this day, Satan has been guarded in heaven, and only his spirit can walk the earth!

Answer 5

Satan is evil personified . Not a real person. Bible contains many similies,metaphors,transferred epithets, historic presents and others figures of speech.

Answer 6

since Adam to Noah__ Noah to Abraham__ Abraham to David, David to Moses__ Moses to Jesus and Jesus to Muhammad (peace & blessings of God be upon all of them) all the Prophets were slaves or servants of the Lord. And, in their servant-n-master or slave-n-lord based relationship__ all of them had__ all the qualities of servants & slaves definitely. That is why that all of them stood as servants & slaves of the Lord__ throughout their lives__ and obeyed their Lord in the most positive terms.

In the lines:-

“Honour the Lord, you descendants of Jacob!
Worship the Lord, you people of Israel!”

Jesus is advising the descendants of Jacob and the people of Israel to honour and worship the Holy One. The same thing has been advised in Quran after Torah by the Almighty God to whole mankind. It means that God of Moses, Jesus and Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be upon each of them) is One, the Holy One. Who alone, is to be honoured and worshipped ___ by the people of Jesus__ by the people__ of Muhammad__ and by the whole mankind.

It is very simple to know and judge that when our Creator & the Lord is none but One, the Holy One, then, we should naturally honour and worship none but One, the Holy One.

Jesus has advised to honour & worship the Holy One in commanding terms. Accordingly, the followers of Jesus should honour & worship none but One, the Holy One. Whereas the followers of Jesus (the Christians) are honouring & worshipping Jesus instead of the Holy One. Such a practice on their part is quiet contrary to the demands of Jesus.

The words of Jesus:-

Honour the LORD-----
Worship the LORD-----

Are therefore declaring the practice in question, undesirable rather false which must be given up at once. On the day of Resurrection, the words of Jesus “Honour the Lord”__ “Worship the Lord”__ will definitely pass a decree against this false practice. Then where will stand the so called followers of Jesus? Who are holding Jesus as God & Saviour instead of the Holy One. Who alone, is the God & Saviour of everyone__ since inception to date__and till the last Day or the Day of Resurrection__ rather even after that.

“Worship no god but me! Do not make for yourselves images of anything in heaven or on earth or in the water under the earth. Do not bow down to any idol or worship it because I am the Lord your God and I tolerate no rivals. I bring punishment on those who hate me and on their descendants, down to the third and fourth generations.”
(Exodus 20:3-5)

Torah, Psalms, Gospel and Quran, all the Scriptures are saying that God is One, the Holy One. So whosoever does not believe in One God, he is definitely denying all the Scriptures. Such a person can not be considered as a believer at all.

No Prophet or a righteous-man has ever dared to say that he, himself, should be honoured like God or worshipped like God. Satan, of course, had certainly said to Jesus to worship him in place of God but Jesus had responded in the following way:-

“Go away Satan! The Scripture says: Worship the Lord you God and serve only the Lord.”
(Matthew 4:10)

In the same way, Jesus has responded in his prayer on the cross while uttering the following lines of the Verse No.23:-

“Praise the Lord, you servants of the Lord!
Honour the Lord, you descendants of Jacob!
Worship the Lord, you people of Israel!”

No doubt, it is a matter of simple common-sense that when God is One__ the Lord is One__ the saviour is one__ the Holy and Only One__ then, how his slaves or servants__ can be held as worthy of the honour & service__ which is meant for the Holy One alone. But alas! The people are honouring and serving the slaves and servants__ just like the Lord. Rather, they have chosen them as God & the Lord__ in place of the Holy One. And__ Christians are the pioneers of such ideas. They have straightaway declared Jesus as God & Lord and the Saviour. Rather, they hold Jesus as the sole sovereign of the Day of Judgement, instead of the Lord, the Almighty God, the Holy One.

“Worship no god but me! Do not make for yourselves images of anything in heaven or on earth or in the water under the earth. Do not bow down to any idol or worship it because I am the Lord your God and I tolerate no rivals. I bring punishment on those who hate me and on their descendants, down to the third and fourth generations.”
(Exodus 20:3-5)

After such a clear and well-explained warning in the Bible, there remains no excuse for Trinity or faith in three gods at all. Now whosoever says that:-

“Gods are three. First is the God of Moses, Jehovah. Second is the Word of God, Jesus and third is the Holy Ghost and; will of all the three is one.”

Such a person is openly rejecting the Ten Commandments. And he is also denying the sole right of Honour & Worship of the Lord, the Holy One.

The believers of Trinity must, at once, give up Trinity and resort to Alone God. Which is the actual religion of prophets since Adam to date including Jesus and Muhammad (peace & blessing of God be upon each of them.)

The day of Judgement is near. But as it has not yet approached, so, present time is the precious time__ to correct the faith & belief in the light of the Scriptures__and the teachings of Prophets. Even momentary delay in this connection, may be highly dangerous__ as the time & tide wait for none. And__ the death may close the doors of life at any time.

To honour the Lord (the Holy One) means to hold the Lord as the Absolute One. And to worship the Lord means to worship the Holy One__ alone__ as the Lord is the All-Able Creator of all the creatures. Natural duty of every creature is, therefore, to resort to the Creator alone__ not to someone else beside the Lord.

Compared with the Honour of the All-Able Creator, the Holy One___ no man, no angel, no jinn or any creature, owns any honour at all. The All-Able Creator is the Almighty Lord. The Lord may cause the death of all the creatures at any time___ And___ it will make no loss or difference to the Lord__ as the Lord alone is the Eternal, the Supreme, the Sublime and the Almighty Lord.

It is written in Quran:-

“Lo! All honour belongs to God alone.”
(Al-Quran 4:139)

So, the Lord alone is the All-Honourable and the Lord must be honoured in the most positive terms. No man, angel, jinn or any other creature__ should be held as All-Honourable like the Lord___ as that is open denial of the Lord’s Absolute Honour. Men, angels and jinn are, of course, honoured but__ they are honoured only in terms of their loyalty to the All-Honourable.
We must, therefore be loyal to the All-Honourable, the Holy One and we must honour the Lord at all cost and in all kinds of circumstances. We should never dare to negate the Lord’s Honour__ in terms of Trinity or the likewise notions. In refutation of Trinity, the Holy One, says in Quran:-

“They indeed have disbelieved who say: Lo! God is the Messiah, Son of Mary. Say (unto them) who, then, can do aught against God if God had willed to destroy Messiah, the son of Mary and his mother and everyone on earth??? God’s is the sovereignty of heavens and the earth and all that is between them. God creates what God wills and God is All-Able to do all things.”
(Al-Quran 5:17)

In conformity of this statement, the Holy One further says:-

“They surely disbelieve who say; Lo! God is the Messiah, son of Mary. Whereas the Messiah (himself) said: O’Children of Israel! worship God, my Lord and your Lord. Lo! Whoso ascribes partners unto God, for him God has forbidden paradise. His abode is the fire. For evil-doers there will be no helpers. They surely disbelieve who say: Lo! God is the third of three while there is no god save the One God. If they desist not from saying so, a painful doom will fall on those of them; who disbelieve.”
(Al-Quran 5:72-73)

For such disbelievers or the believers of Trinity, the Holy One, has given a convincing clarification about Trinity:-

“The Messiah, son of Mary, was no other than a Messenger. The Messengers (like of whom) had passed away before him. And, his mother was a saintly woman and they both used to eat food. See! How I make the revelation clear for them and, then, see! How they are turning astray. Say you worship in place of God that which possesses for you neither hurt nor use? God is God, Who is the Hearer, the Knower. Say (also to them) O’people of the Scripture, stress not in your religion other than the truth and follow not, the vain desires of the folk who erred of old and led many astray, and erred from a right way.”
(Al-Quran 5:75-77)

Now, please ponder over the fact that Torah says: there is no God save the One, the Holy One. Jesus says: there is no God save the One, the Holy One. And__ Quran says: - there is no God save the One, the Holy One. Then, what is the justification for Trinity or any other type of Polytheism???
