God makes angels spirits. Satan whose credo "I will" challenged the holiness of God, With this in mind the tempter asking Jesus "If thou be" challenged the eternal nature. His advent in human likeness was bound up in fulfilling the will of his Father so the challenges he asked was basically faith against doubt. Law of Spirit against the Law of sin. Satan sins from the beginning so the appetites of the flesh loomed large in his eyes. Besides before him stood the Son of man vulnerable after fasting 40 days and forty nights. Jesus who was the Word become flesh would not go against his holiness. In the Father-Son relationship the sovereign hold of the word was the arbiter.
This episode tells his adversary well knew his scripture but without faith it was zero . Knowledge of the holy is understanding. How the serpent mouthed Satan's position with regards to the knowledge of good and evil is a case in point. "And ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil" without truth was blind. We hear in our times," Justification makes the works unnecessary which is a travesty of Luther's position. It has been thus the eternal word of God has been debased into heresies without living it.
God provided all needful things for life and godliness. So man who dares to change the stone into bread was questioning His holiness. In the second challenge Satan would give man 'a bold initiative' by "If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down". Jesus rebutted him from his position of faith. Thirdly "if thou wilt fall down and worship me". Satan would never have understood the key to salvation so his last challenge addressing sentient nature of man shows the egregious folly in relying on the senses which only appealed him. "Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do.... and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie,he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it"( John 8:44)
