No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
Let no man say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God,” for God can’t be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.
But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own lust and enticed.
Then the lust, when it has conceived, bears sin. The sin, when it is full grown, produces death.
Watch and pray, that you don’t enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.”
For we don’t have a high priest who can’t be touched with the feeling of our infirmities, but one who has been in all points tempted like we are, yet without sin.
Let’s therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace for help in time of need.
Be subject therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.
