Once again, no takers.

No doubt this will be dismissed out of hand, as you made the offer on equal standing, and were not appropriately grovelling and submissive. In essence, you'll be discounted entirely because you didn't presuppose the truth of the bible and imbue Jesus with the authority and dominance that you're trying to get him to prove, before he did so.

The Devil is supposed to be a little more outgoing and quite happy to venture forth to get a little carry out.
