This dude knows his Bible, and he has been calling out Satan super hard.
TLDW: Lucifer was the primary cherub who announced the Good News of God's doings to the world. Before the creation of Adam, he received a revelation from God to announce the coming of Man, with whom God will share his divinity. As head angel on Earth, you can see how Lucifer wouldn't like that very much. He protested before God and challenged such a notion. When he didn't get his way, he led rebellion of a 3rd of the angels against God.
The most powerful thing in all this is that Robin Bullock claims Lucifer was set to be the personal angel (guardian angel if you're Catholic) of Jesus. In Catholic teaching, every person has a guardian angel that is exclusive to that person's needs.
Personally, I figure that St Michael the Archangel became the assigned Guardian Angel to Jesus.
Jesus doesn’t need angels to protect Him. He is God, proof? Satan brings him to a high tower asking him to jump to have an angel protect him, he declines to jump, the proof for that very same temptation that the angel was not needed was the previous temptation, having Jesus turn rocks into bread. He’s God, of course he could have, he chose not too, because he was not morally weak like non-God-man (every other human ever). Another consideration is when Peter cuts off the high priest’s ear and Jesus mentions the legions of angels He could call to do battle at His very Word. They angels are very subservient to Him. If Jesus wanted to come down from the cross he could have (like the mockers mocked). All of this to say, Jesus chose to fulfill God’s Word. He needs no protector, He is the Judge eternal, and will stand at God’s right hand on that frightful day. He will also stand beside His beloved and cover them with His blood, so that they will me made righteous.
Human in all ways, limitations and all. His Faith in the Father allows Him to perform miracles, not his human shell. As He is inheritor of all His Father's holdings, He is given authority because of His perfect Faith.
Which means, He even gets his own personal guardian angel. Did he need one? Probably not. But it comes with being human. It isn't just to defend you. It is there to comfort you when you are all alone. It is there to ferry messages to and from God ("angel" translates to "messenger of god").
Seriously, watch that video. This isn't some heretic, he knows his Bible.
Bullock goes through all of what you said with the 40 days temptations.
Satan was tempting/tricking Him to become ruler of the lesser kingdoms:
Earth, Plant, Beast, Angel.
If He fell for any of the temptations, His authority would have been relegated to the lesser kingdoms and not ALL kingdoms, as full inheritor of the Father's estate and authority.
There was a 0% chance Jesus would die prior to His Father's calling to die his death on the cross, how do we know? Jesus foretold it many times. There is no proof in the Bible that God assigns an angel to each of us. He may use angels at His will, and He is not bound by time and space limitations, and neither are angels (as far as I'm aware, thinking of angels popping up in places than disappearing). Verses that speak of ministering angels do not qualify the "guardian angel" idea. I find no hard scripture, I don't think it would ever matter if you believe one way or the other, but I don't believe it's true, because of the lack of substantiating evidence. I would argue the infant baptism has a stronger case. The problem with the idea of a "guardian angel" is that, in a sense, someone could end up worshiping that angel, or depending on the angel (at least in their head) instead of depending on God. It's not the belief in the guardian angel that is inherently evil, you just put yourself in a dangerous position. This is the same reason I disagree with catholics about dead saints. No where does the Bible tell you to pray for dead people or ask dead people to pray for you, in fact, the closest thing to that you could find is probably Saul asking Samuel about God's will for an upcoming battle. God was not amused. What is that last point you are talking about? If He [Jesus] succumbed to any sin whatsoever, 1. He would cease to be God 2. His "righteousness" (I put righteousness in quotes because it's not possible to have righteousness with the stain of sin) would only be enough to cover His own sin (again, were that even possible for Him to sin). 3. We would all be without hope because of the former point. 4. Because of 2 and 3, Christianity would have failed long before the council of Nicaea and the Bible as we know it today would not exist, and we would still be awaiting a Savior, as promised in Isaiah. Fortunately or more correctly, Providentially, we have a perfect savior. Did He suffer human frailty, yes, did he know hunger, yes, did he know the feeling of a sunburn, yes, did he feel great sorrow, yes. Many things like that are true, but to place ANY sin upon him is blasphemy and to deny his Godhood from day 1 of his life on earth is to deny the scriptures. If you want a phenomenal speaker to hear more about this. Listen to RC Sproul (senior, not junior). He speaks on many issues, (I mean, he is dead now, and Lord willing he is now in heaven) things like transgender issues, voting for Trump (he's pro-Trump by the way), and dismantles the entirety of the catholic church (handily). He is probably the best speaker on Christianity I've ever heard, and I only heard of him shortly before his death, I never got to meet him, nor hear him speak live. His way of preaching is more of a teaching style (chalkboards). Give him a listen, you'll be amazed.

Anyway, Robin tells it better than me.

First off, Jesus is human in all ways but sin.
You don't want to hear it, but even Jesus pooped.
Human in all ways, limitations and all. His Faith in the Father allows Him to perform miracles, not his human shell. As He is inheritor of all His Father's holdings, He is given authority because of His perfect Faith.

Really, watch that video. It blew my mind.
