Why Are We Tempted? James 1:13-15

Important To Remember 1. All of us are tempted to sin. 2. And at some point, we all sin. 3. However, God is not the one who tempts us.

Man’s 3 Great Enemies Ephesians 2:1-3 1. Satan (I Peter 5:8) 2. The Flesh (Galatians 5:16-24) 3. The World (I John 2:15-17) Ephesians 2:1-3

God Could Have Made it easier on us Done something about the Devil Done something about the flesh Done something about the world

Why Are We Tempted? It’s a test of our love and commitment to God It’s necessary to spiritual growth It teaches us we must depend on God if we are to survive

Never Forget We CAN overcome - Satan (James 4:7) - the flesh (Galatians 5:24) - the world (I John 5:4) - temptation (I Cor.10:13)
