    I talk about some practical ways to successfully fight against temptation.

    Last week we began a two part series on how to fight temptation. I shared last week that Jesus died to set us free from the power of sin in our lives.

    David, the man after God’s own heart fell into sin. Looking at his life we can see how he allowed himself to end up in a weakened state, and we can learn from his mistakes how to avoid the same.

    Fighting Temptation (The Impala Christian)

    Fighting temptation is foolish. The Bible does not enjoin any to resist temptation but the devil while we abstain from every appearance of evil.

    Sometimes in the month, I saw a documentary involving the animals, jackal and impala. Jackal with an average weight of 10kg is a carnivore belonging to the same family as wolf and dog while impala is an African antelope having two long horns and an average weight of 60kg. Both of them live in the ...read more

Satan's ways look good and appealing, but God's way is the way that is best; Satan's way is death. It is better to be poor and honest than rich and dishonest! • We ...read more
