CHAPTER

The Three Tentations of Jesus

He will command his angels to guard you, that's part of Scripture and they will bear you up lest you strike your foot against a stone. In this temptation the devil actually quotes from Scripture from Psalm 91 verses 11 and 12. Now it's as if the devil is trying to throw the Bible back in Jesus' face.
