No, Ali, my claim does not contradict those verses. Satan attempted to cause Jesus to follow him, or to fall from grace, but he (Obviously) did not succeed.

  From where you get the idea that satan actually 'attempted' to temp Jesus?You should backup your claim with the help of Biblical verses.

 Further no where in Bible the word 'attempted' is written.It is your own insertion.

 Can you show me a single verse which says that "Satan attempted to tempt Jesus..."

  And suppose you are succeeded to show me a verse then it contradicts with Mark 1:12-13,Luke 4:1-2,Hebrew 2:17-18

 It is another case you donot admit it.

Yes, but you'll more than likely refuse to believe it, or twist it in some manner.  Here it is:

John 1:1-18 (New King James Version)

John 1
The Eternal Word
 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend^[a] it. 
John�s Witness: The True Light

6 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. 7 This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bear witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light which gives light to every man coming into the world.^[b]
10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. 11 He came to His own,^[c] and His own^[d] did not receive Him. 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name: 13 who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 
The Word Becomes Flesh

14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. 
15 John bore witness of Him and cried out, saying, �This was He of whom I said, �He who comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me.�� 
16 And^[e] of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. 17 For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. 18 No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son,^[f] who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him.

 I think you didnot understand what i am asking from you.I said '...Can you bring me the verse where Jesus claims to have dual natures i.e. fully man and fully God...?'

  Now my first question to you regarding John 1:1 is this, is this Jesus speaking? The answer is no, this is NOT Jesus speaking.This is supposedly the disciple John writing this here not Jesus! So what we have is an interpretation of what one man thought! Why cant you get us Jesus saying in the beginning the word was with God and the word was God, why didn�t Jesus ever say this?

 So you now want us to believe Jesus is God because of what a man said? A man�s interpretation! The Bible itself testifies that the disciples often miss-understood Jesus and didn�t understand him! 

 So John 1:1 does not prove anything, it is not Jesus speaking.

Oh yea of little faith, Ali!  St. John was a prophet of God....what he said in the Gospel of John were the inspired words given to John to say in this Gospel.  Are you saying God told John to say false words??  

I DID show you in the other topic where Jesus himself told St. Thomas that "since you touched the nail prints in my hands you believe (that I am the Christ)....but blessed are those who have NOT felt the nail prints in my hands yet still believe (That I am the Christ).  Yes, Ali, Jesus Christ Himself said these words in the Gospel.

Peace and Wisdom,
Patty
