During Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness, how did He respond to Satan’s challenge to turn stones into bread?

  1. By calling angels to bring Him food
  2. By turning the stones into bread
  3. By quoting Deuteronomy: ‘Man shall not live by bread alone’ ✓
  4. By ignoring Satan’s challenge

Explanation

When Satan tempted Jesus to turn stones into bread after fasting for forty days, Jesus quoted Scripture. He said humans need more than just food; they need God’s Word.

Jesus did not ignore Satan or show His power by doing miracles. Instead, He used the Bible to defeat temptation, showing us the power of Scripture.

This teaches us to fight spiritual battles with God’s Word, not our own strength.
