Temptation. Giving into sin. We’ve all done it, and yet, we know it’s wrong. Sin is what separates the human race from God. It is why Jesus Christ was sent to die a horrible death on the cross to pay its penalty, which in turn, made it possible for all who believe in Him to be restored back to God.
Long ago, Jesus told a woman caught in adultery to “Go…sin no more” (John 8:11) and He tells us the same thing today. But how do we combat temptation when it seems like each one has been specifically customized just for our area of weakness? Let’s take a look a few Scriptures to find an answer.
2 Corinthians 10:3-5
3 For though we live in the world, we do not wage war as the world does. 4 The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. 5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.
Titus One One
