That would be evil, and you couldn't blame it onb satan.

That doesn't answer the question, because it doesn't mean anything.
Why do you need to clorify Him? Why can't you just accept His word?

But glorifying evil isn't part of this discussion. No one in this
discussion is talking about glorifying evil but you. Why do you
glorify God? Why not just live a Christian life?

Another strawman.

Loving is not glorifying, so this advice from Jesus is off the
subject.
