matters.


 Gordon Spykman
  theologian (1926-1993)
"There is not a square inch in
the whole domain of our

Christ, who is Sovereign over

Examples
Lead us not into
temptation
James 1:13 When
tempted, no one should
say, “God is tempting me.”
For God cannot be
tempted by evil, nor does
he tempt anyone;
James 1:14 but each one
is tempted when, by his
own evil desire, he is
dragged away and
enticed.
Matthew 4:1
Then Jesus was led by
the Spirit into the desert
to be tempted by the
devil.
Matthew 4:1
Then Jesus was led by
the Spirit into the desert
to be tempted by the
devil.
Matthew 4:3 The tempter
came to him and said, “If
you are the Son of God,
tell these stones to
become bread.”
Lessons in dealing with temptation
              1. Temptation is not a sin
Hebrews 4:15
For we do not have a high
priest who is unable to
sympathise with our
weaknesses, but we have
one who has been
tempted in every way,
just as we are — yet was
without sin.

Avoid them
