“Tempted and tried-Jack Blake”

Categories: Faithfulness, Seeking God

Good Morning,

Only those who endure temptation when he is tried will receive the promised crown of life which has been promised to those who love God and His beloved Son, Jesus the Christ.  But as the world goes, disciples sometimes like to say that it is God who tempts them.  But this is just a lie for it is written that God cannot be tempted with evil, nor does He tempt anyone.  Do we not understand that we are tempted when we withdraw from God by our own lusts; the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye and the pride of life, and when lust is conceived it brings sin; and sin when it is finished brings us spiritual death? WE as disciples must be careful not to err when we are tempted and tried.  My thoughts from James 12:16.  Thanks for reading.
