Please understand that the four gospel accounts were written by four different witnesses; therefore, there will be variations in the accounts. These do not constitute contradicts, just different points of view on the same events. It is like sending four reporters to report on the same event---you will get four different stories, but all will be valid. If you put them all together you will get a complete picture. However, it will be very difficult to combine ALL the stories into one and have a readable account; therefore, some material will have to be excluded. What you ask has been done with the four gospel accounts, but some of the verses had to be sacrificed in order to make the manuscript readable. There is redundancy among the accounts.

SUPPOSEDLY...
ANGELS ARE GODS CREATIONS JUST AS WE HUMANS ARE...AND APPARENTLY GOD ALSO GAVE ANGELS FREE WILL SINCE ''MICHAEL'' THE ANGEL EMBODIED A SNAKE AND FOOLED THE FIRST JEWS AT THE GARDEN BY HIS OWN FREE WILL....GOD KNOWS ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS SO HE LET HIS EVIL ANGEL DO WHATEVER HE WANTED....ALTHOUGH BY THIS TIME THE FIRST HUMANS ALREADY HAD FREE WILL....THE DID NOT KNOW WHAT ''EVIL'' WAS......SO THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY IT.......WHEN THE SNAKE APROACHED THEM, HE FOOLED THESE FIRST JEWS QUITE EASILY....YOU SEE...GOD MADE THE MISTAKE OF NOT LETTING THEM KNOW WHAT EVIL WAS......HE JUST LET THEM FIND OUT BY THEMSELVES....AND WHO WAS GOING TO TEACH THEM.......?.....HIS OWN EVIL ANGEL MICHAEL.......SO WE WERE SUPPOSED TO FIND OUT ABOUT EVIL AFTERALL.......OR WOULDN'T YOU THINK GOD MADE TOO MUCH OF A BIG FUZZ TAKING OUR ETRNITY ON EARTH FOR THE LITTLE MISTAKE THAT ADAM AND EVE MADE FOR EATING JUST A SIMPLE FRUIT...?
GOD GOT FURIOUS (AS IF HE DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE SHAKEDOWN) AND SENT MICHAEL TO EARTH AS SATAN......GOD DECIDED: ''HEAVEN IS FOR ME AND YOU HANDLE THE EARTH SATAN...''
WHEN SATAN TEMPTED CHRIST AT THE DESERT....HE OFFERED JESUS THE EASY WAY OUT OF EATING AND QUENCHING HIS THIRST CLAIMING....''IF YOU'RE THE SON OF GOD....YOU CAN SIMPLY SNAP YOUR FINGERS AND MAKE FOOD AND WINE TO APPEAR FOR YOUR SATISFACTION''......BUT CHRIST WAS ON A SELF TEST......HE SAID ''NOT ONLY OF BREAD DOES MAN LIVE''......MEANING: HE WAS EATING FOOD FOR THE SOUL.......SATAN ALSO OFFERED JESUS ALL THE KINGDOMS ON EARTH.....BUT CHRIST REJECTED THEM CLAIMING: ''MY KINGDOM IS THAT OF HEAVEN''....
SO YOU SEE....
WHY WOULD SATAN OFFER ALL KINGDOMS.......?...BECAUSE SATAN OWNS EARTH......
IF I WAS A BELIEVER....THESE WOULD BE MY INTERPRETATIONS.....
BUT SINCE I'M NOT A BELIEVER......
THIS IS ALL JUST A NICE FAIRY TALE......
