Did Jesus Christ Kneel Before Satan?

When Jesus Christ washed the feet of the disciples was Jesus Christ actually kneeling, bowing down, before Satan which was one of Satan's original temptations in the desert.

Consider that when Jesus Christ washed the feet of all the disciples he did so in the presence of Satan, for Satan was waiting nearby. Satan had already been rebuked by Christ when Satan spoke through Peter and Satan eventually possessed Judas afterward.

While Jesus Christ seemed to be taking up Satan's offer of gaining ALL the kingdoms of this world for keeling before Satan Jesus took only that which was his....the Jewish people! For the disciples represented the 12 tribes of Israel!

Recall that when Jesus Christ was tempted by Satan in the desert Satan took Jesus above ALL the kingdoms of this world and then offered ALL of them to Jesus if only Jesus would knell before Satan.

While Jesus Christ did rebuff all of Satan's temptations in the desert Satan's offer of ALL of his own kingdoms was still valid (hint: don't tempt God or else you will ultimately be held accountable!).

Therefore when Jesus Christ washed the feet of the disciples Jesus Christ took only what was his for God had already made a covenant with Israel! Jesus took the 'fat of the lamb' and gave the rest back to Satan.

It must be noted that since all the disciples were created in the image of God Jesus was NOT actually knelling before Satan directly. Satan was caught in his own web of deceit as he used the serpent in the Garden to approach Adam and Eve and God used his only son Jesus Christ and the 12 disciples (hint: Israel) to approach Satan.

Believe in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and then you'll be 'grafted' into the 'True Vine' – Jesus Christ. You'll then be redeemed by the body and blood of Jesus Christ to live a life of eternity with God the Father, God the Son Jesus Christ, and God the Holy Spirit in heaven forever!

God Bless
 
Luke 22:1-6 Satan never posses Judas as he only entered into the his thoughts as Judas fell to Satan's temptation to betray Jesus through greed or as also called the love of money. Jesus already knew that it was Judas who was to betray Him.

Satan tempted Jesus in the Judaean desert while Jesus was fasting for forty days and nights before beginning His ministry and what did Jesus say to Satan, "Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve". Matthew 4:10. Jesus never fell to Satan's temptations as all was given to Jesus by God. He already owned all that Satan was tempting Him with.
