Christian Quote #130: Five Defenses Against Temptation

The five defenses are 1) store up God’s word in your heart; 2) avoid obviously compromising situations; 3) know your weaknesses and the schemes of the enemy; 4) understand the destructive nature of sexual sin; and 5) know that it can happen to you, too.

  1. From all the horrible things and temptation, why did you specifically listed sexual sin? Why does it deserve a special mentioning more than anything else? The way I see it, so many sins can be so much worse

    • Hello, sir. The quote is taken from a specific video addressing the topic of sexual temptaton. I agree that there are many serious temptations, not just sexual. However, there is good reason for addressing topics individually.

      This blog, in general, does have a focus on sexual integrity. If you visit the homepage, there is a link to the about section where I explain the intention of this site.

      I will say to check out 1 Corinthians 6:18, if you are a Christian. The sexual area, in general, does seem to warrant special mention in the Bible.
