Understanding Temptation
- Temptation is one of Satan's strongest tools to distance us from God. It originates from our own desires and, if left unchecked, leads to sin and spiritual death. The cycle of sin and shame is common, but when we believe we can't overcome it, we're giving temptation undue power.
God’s Promise of a Way Out
- God consistently provides a way to escape temptation. Resisting temptation builds resilience and draws us closer to Him. As we form new, positive habits, God’s love motivates us more powerfully than fear or shame, reinforcing that nothing can separate us from His love.
Endurance Through Prayer, Accountability, Avoidance, and Scripture
- Actively praying, building accountability, avoiding tempting situations, and studying Scripture are practical steps to resist temptation. These actions align us with God's strength, help us make better choices, and remind us that Jesus empathizes with our struggles and offers help.
Sermon from 10/29
The Table exists because broken people need a place. We are a family that gathers weekly to hear the truth of Jesus.
