The Lord Jesus Christ Responds to Tension

Satan uses this temptation technique of planting a seed of doubt onto the soul of the sons and daughters of God. If you're really the son of God, basically it's this, prove it. Turn these stones, command that these stones be made bread. That doesn't seem to be the real temptation for Jesus. It's Jesus, use your God given power to gratify your own appetites,. His response is not to think about it, not to reason within himself, but to meet a face on and reject it.
