The '''Three Temptations of Christ''' consisted of [[Satan]] confronting Jesus at His weakest moment (after fasting for 40 days) and trying to break His [[faith]] and adherence to God. Jesus passed these temptations as a man, whereupon He embarked upon His ministry and miraculous deeds.

The First Temptation was for Jesus to act in a self-serving manner by turning stones into bread.<ref>Mt 4:3-4</ref> Jesus refused.

The Second Temptation was for Jesus to put God to the test by descending from the highest point of the temple.<ref>Mt 4:5-7</ref> Jesus declined.

The Third Temptation was for Jesus to accept power over the world in exchange for bowing down to Satan.<ref>Mt 4:8-10</ref> Jesus passed again, saying one should worship God alone.
