(Mat. 4) “5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple, 6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone. 7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.”

An interesting question, how the devil transports Jesus to the pinnacle of the temple, does the devil posses teleportation abilities?

What Jesus says is that we should not do experiments on God. In other articles on this site I explain that God is present as a physical phenomenon in our universe. So, God forbids some physical experiments. (It is clear that some physical experiments should be forbidden: the sound sense for example forbids the experiment of bursting an A-bomb in a city.)
