How could satan offer Jesus the earth if he knew that Jesus was his Creator?

Answer 1

JESUS AGE 30 FACES SATAN

Matt.4:1 Then was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil. 4:2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.
1.
4:3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.
4:4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
2.
4:5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,
4:6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
4:7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
3.
4:8 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;
KINGDOMS OF THE WORLD:
4:9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
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.
4:11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.

KINGDOMS OF THE WORLD IS NOT THE EARTH, JESUS IS NO PART OF THIS WORLD John 18:36;

Eph.2:7; 3:21; The world with Jesus is without end. John 3:16; 17:3,17;

Answer 2

Read Matthew 21:33-41. Here is the salient part: Matthew 21:38 But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said among themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize on his inheritance.

Satan wanted the inhertience of Jesus. It didn't happen because the testator is not dead.

Satan is not omnicient, but he is exceptionally subtle. He surely gets us tangled in his web because we are so wasily lead. But Satan never broke the code that without Jesus' death on the cross and his resurrection, there would be no salvation for sinners.

============

JadynsMom24 and others: Ummmm, yes it did. Read YOUR Bible. If you are offered all of the kingdoms of the world, you are being offered the earth.

Matthew 4:8 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.

Oh, and for the others who say Jesus is not the creator? Explain this one:

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.2. The same was in the beginning with God. 3. ALL THINGS were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made....1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

The Word was with God, The Word was God, and the Word became flesh. That makes Jesus and the Word on and the same. Therefore since the Word created everything, and Jesus is theWord, then Jesus is Satan's creator.

Answer 3

Beg your pardon, but don't talk nonsense. Even being Jesus, or the Christ, you don't own what you create. Let's say that the Christ was being offered some royalties as the manager of the Earth created (the Bible says) by his Father. So, as
the Father is Infinite and can't die, the Son can never put the hand on the inheritance. I'll tell you more, we're all the sons and daughters of God the Father, I heard about it some place,
so we're the owners of an impossible Inheritage, because it's known that God won't die.
Moreover, Lucifer, the Rebel Angel who Lost not the Earth, but the Paradise (read Milton) was created before the Christ, or Jesus, so he's somewhat got the Primogeniture and that uchronical Inheritance is more Lucifer's (we see it day by day) than Jesus'. It was nevertheless a mean gift, perhaps he could have offered the Sun, or the Galaxy, but between us, I'm sure that Lucifer "The Devil" was bluffing.

Answer 4

Jesus is no longer the ruler of this earth for men have chosen to live in sin then in righteousness. Jesus respects our decisions and it's consequences, so whoever people side with in the majority that person will lead the world, that person is Satan and his fallen angels. Not forever though, when Jesus descends from heaven he will destroy those who sin and Satan as well, leaving only the righteous in the new earth.

The bible says "Behold I am coming as a thief, Blessed is he who watches..Revelation 17:4

Jesus will come to destroy the dominion Satan has on this earth, he will once again reclaim his title and put an end to all suffering and it's not a fairy tale. Click on the link or go to amazingfacts.org

Answer 5

Adam sinned and Satan by default ,became ruler of earth, until He killed Jesus who was innocent . Jesus then became the Righteous Judge. That is why he commented I saw Satan fall like a lightning bolt from heaven. Satan lost all right to be there.
That is also why Jesus postponed judgment till the end of the world . Giving Satan no right to go there to accuse people.
When Jesus ascended He said "Behold I hold the keys to Heaven and earth" He is now the ruler.

Answer 6

The Bible Says...If thou be the Son of God..etc When Adam bowed to satan In the garden of Eden ,He give him dominion over the earth. Don't you think if satan knew that crucifying Jesus could save the world he would have allowed it to happen ? NO ! At the time when satan offered Jesus the Kingdoms of the world,he (satan) still had right full dominion because of Adam. Jesus came to save the lost and set the captives free as well as buy back man's dominion on earth.

Answer 7

Satan did indeed offer Jesus "all the kingdoms of the Earth". Not the Earth itself.

Jesus did not create those Kingdoms, and by Satan offering them, this indicates that all the Kingdoms of the Earth belong to Satan. Why would it be a "temptation" if they didn't belong to Satan to begin with?

Answer 8

Not the earth. He offered to give him the "KINGDOMS of the earth (world)"
Matthew 4:8,9- Again the Devil took him along to an unusually high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory, and he said to him: “All these things I will give you if you fall down and do an act of worship to me.”

The earth is not his, Satan knows that. Everyone knows that.

But the kingdoms of the world..... now that's a different story!

1 John 5:19- We know we originate with God, but the whole world is lying in the power of the wicked one

John 12:31- Now there is a judging of this world; now the ruler of this world will be cast out.

John 14:30- I shall not speak much with you anymore, for the ruler of the world is coming. And he has no hold on me

2 Corinthians 4:3,4- If, now, the good news we declare is in fact veiled, it is veiled among those who are perishing, among whom the god of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, that the illumination of the glorious good news about the Christ, who is the image of God, might not shine through

EDIT: I got carried away, I forgot one more point- Jehovah is the Creator, Jesus helped him (like the way an apprentice worker helps the Master)

Answer 9

I think the idea is that the first men (I don't personally believe the Adam and Eve account literally) got corrupted by the fallen angel Satan. These spirit beings can put suggestions in people's minds in subtle ways, and if they don't have good values they can be led off into error.

Hence Satan got people not believing in God and committing behaviour that is abhorrent to God. So men work there societies by 'might is right', and cheating often when they can get away with it, and so on- evidence of which is there in the history books of every nation. Satan can thus exert a lot of control because men have been seduced to think in ways he likes. Thats what I think, although its probably a lot more complex. Jesus could look at the Herodian kings of Judaea and the Roman Emperors as examples of powerful and not-so-good rulers. John the Baptist was executed by Herod Antipas because he criticised Herod taking the wife of his brother Philip - she took offense and schemed to kill John.

Answer 10

Satan knows that Jesus is the son of the true God. While satan was in the heavens before being cast down to the vinicity of the earth he witnessed two seperate distinct individuals!!!!!
Father and Son, Satan the devil is a witnesses to this fact, no part of a trinity!

Answer 11

He offered Jesus the earth when Jesus fasted in the desert. Satan could offer Jesus the earth because Satan has dominion over the earth. At this time Jesus was in his unglorified state.
