This makes sense because in his temptations of Christ, he did use scripture. Also, after asking the question, I did look back to the first lie Satan told in the Bible back in Genesis 3. He told Eve that when she ate the fruit, she would become like God knowing good and evil. That was part true. She did know good and evil. However, she did not become like God for God knew no sin (2 Corinthians 5:21). Is this understanding correct? | ||||||
