When tempted, no one should say, “God is tempting me.” For God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does he tempt anyone; but each one is tempted when, by his own evil desire, he is dragged away and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death. Truth: does not tempt people to do wrong. Truth: Temptation starts with evil desires. The Descending Cycle of Sin Evil personal → → → → A Story of Temptation: Joshua 7:19-23 Then Joshua said to Achan, “My son, give glory to the LORD, the God of Israel, and give him the praise. Tell me what you have done; do not hide it from me.” Achan replied, “It is true! I have sinned against the LORD, the God of Israel. This is what I have done: When I saw in the plunder a beautiful robe from Babylonia, two hundred shekels of silver and a wedge of gold weighing fifty shekels, I coveted them and took them. They are hidden in the ground inside my tent, with the silver underneath.” So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent, and there it was, hidden in his tent, with the silver underneath. They took the things from the tent, brought them to Joshua and all the Israelites and spread them out before the LORD. Achan’s descending cycle of sin: I → I → I → I We all face temptation, but there’s a promise of God. No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it. – 1 Corinthians 10:13 Another promise in the face of temptation: When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him. – Isaiah 59:19 Now, read with the comma moved… When the enemy comes in, like a flood the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.
