Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
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.
A perfect god not only wouldn't be tempted, but couldn't be tempted. In that it would be an incoherent proposition. There is nothing that anyone could conceive of that a perfect god would be lacking or need. If they could, it wouldn't be perfect.
This story is confirmation that either the god of the bible is imperfect, or it's non-existent.

As an atheist from a baptist background I can tell you that that particular argument isn't going to be very persuasive or meaningful.
The standard story line is that Jesus isn't God. Jesus is an aspect of God. The temptation of Jesus comes near the end of the time Jesus was manifest as a mortal man to witness and take on the suffering of mankind and experience the glory of God from outside God's immediate presence.
At the time of the temptation Jesus was pretty much entirely a normal man and his standard of living and prospects were rather poor. He had had no exposure to wealth, power, and the finer things of life.
Only later, after experiencing the human condition, suffering, being tortured, crucified, and dying does he reunite with God.
That's the general thrust of the story.
It isn't even original. Just a shinier version of the story where the king sends his son away to be raised by peasants so the boy can learn: practical skills, the plight of the common man, and eventually, to appreciate his royalty.
