The lust thus aroused envelops the mind and will of man in the deepest darkness. The powers of clear discrimination and of decision are taken from us . It is here that everything within me rises up against the Word of God. There is not a person who has cast his shadow across this earth, including Jesus Christ, who has not faced temptation. And there is not a single person who has ever lived, except Christ, who has not yielded to it at one time or another and suffered the consequences.
Temptation is an inevitable part of our fallen world.
We cannot escape it. How we handle temptation determines our character and ultimately our eternal destiny. It determines how we are viewed and regarded. Joseph was a man of impeccable integrity. He handled every temptation in a manner that is a credit to him as a person and for the glory of God.
