Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In "Triumph Over Temptation," author Bill Vincent embarks on a profound exploration of the pervasive struggle against lust, one of humanity's most formidable spiritual battles. Drawing from his extensive experience in pastoral care and deliverance ministry, Vincent delves deep into the heart of this insidious force, revealing its many facets beyond mere sexual desire, encompassing the lust for power, control, and material excess. Through twelve compelling chapters, Vincent offers a piercing analysis of the various manifestations of lust, its historical roots in biblical narratives, and its contemporary relevance in a world increasingly blurred between the sacred and the secular. He unravels the deceptive allure of lust, its potential to lead even the most devout astray, and the subtle ways it infiltrates our thoughts and actions. The book illuminates the often-misunderstood dynamics of spiritual warfare, the role of leadership in safeguarding the flock, and the importance of discernment in distinguishing the voice of God from the cunning whispers of the adversary. Vincent calls for a return to biblical truths, urging believers to stand firm in their faith, fortified by the Word and led by the Holy Spirit. "Triumph Over Temptation" is not merely a discourse on the pitfalls of lust; it's a roadmap to liberation, a call to arms against the forces that seek to ensnare us. It's an invitation to embark on a transformative journey, fortified by divine wisdom, to claim victory over the desires that threaten to derail our spiritual walk. Whether you are a long-standing believer or new to the faith, this book is a beacon of light, offering guidance, hope, and the promise of triumph over the trials that test our resolve. Embrace the journey within these pages, and step into the freedom and victory that await.
Download or read book Tempted and Tried written by Russell Moore and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2011-03-02 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although temptation is a common and well-acknowledged part of the human experience, few realize the truth behind temptation and fewer still know how to defeat it. Tempted and Tried will not reassure Christians by claiming that temptation is less powerful or less prevalent than it is; instead, it will prepare believers for battle by telling the truth about the cosmic war that is raging. Moore shows that the temptation of every Christian is part of a broader conspiracy against God, a conspiracy that confronts everyone who shares the flesh of Jesus through human birth and especially confronts those who share the Spirit of Christ through the new birth of redemption. Moore walks readers through the Devil's ancient strategies for temptation revealed in Jesus' wilderness testing. Moore considers how those strategies might appear in a contemporary context and points readers to a way of escape. Tempted and Tried will remind Christians that temptation must be understood in terms of warfare, encouraging them with the truth that victory has already been secured through the triumph of Christ.

Owen deals with the problem of our sinfulness, showing that there is far more to indwelling sin than many of us realize. He goes on to describe the Holy Spirit's ministry in and to the believer, and the true nature of spiritual growth and progress. Owen embodied the best of Puritan devotion: the awe of God, humility, wisdom, and awareness of God's grace. Introduction by Dr. J. I. Packer."
Download or read book Lead Us Into Temptation written by James B. Twitchell and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 1999-05-06 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coke adds life. Just do it. Yo quiero Taco Bell. We live in a commercial age, awash in a sea of brand names, logos, and advertising jingles—not to mention commodities themselves. Are shoppers merely the unwitting stooges of the greedy producers who will stop at nothing to sell their wares? Are the producers' powers of persuasion so great that resistance is futile? James Twitchell counters this assumption of the used and abused consumer with a witty and unflinching look at commercial culture, starting from the simple observation that "we are powerfully attracted to the world of goods (after all, we don't call them 'bads')." He contends that far from being forced upon us against our better judgment, "consumerism is our better judgment." Why? Because increasingly, store-bought objects are what hold us together as a society, doing the work of "birth, patina, pews, coats of arms, house, and social rank"—previously done by religion and bloodline. We immediately understand the connotations of status and identity exemplified by the Nike swoosh, the Polo pony, the Guess? label, the DKNY logo. The commodity alone is not what we are after; rather, we actively and creatively want that logo and its signification—the social identity it bestows upon us. As Twitchell summarizes, "Tell me what you buy, and I will tell what you are and who you want to be." Using elements as disparate as the film The Jerk, French theorists, popular bumper stickers, and Money magazine to explore the nature and importance of advertising lingo, packaging, fashion, and "The Meaning of Self," Twitchell overturns one stodgy social myth after another. In the process he reveals the purchase and possession of things to be the self-identifying acts of modern life. Not only does the car you drive tell others who you are, it lets you know as well. The consumption of goods, according to Twitchell, provides us with tangible everyday comforts and with crucial inner security in a seemingly faithless age. That we may find our sense of self through buying material objects is among the chief indictments of contemporary culture. Twitchell, however, sees the significance of shopping. "There are no false needs." We buy more than objects, we buy meaning. For many of us, especially in our youth, Things R Us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rage of temptation appears snappishly and usually without warning. It is mankind's ancient yet persistent and undesirable companion - an intruder of the highest proportion and a tormentor of distressing order. Satan, its perpetrator, lurks and creeps around in the dark recesses of our lives aiming to push us to the point of surrender. Satan is, however, predictable. He doesn't have new tricks. All he does is to remodel and repackage himself. Shouldn't we have known; shouldn't we have learnt? He tried his tricks on Jesus. It was tempting for Him to quit, yet Jesus did not. It was easy to let go, but He refused. Now, as God, He gave us principles in the Bible on how to respond. Delivered with clarity and passion, Turning Temptations into Triumphs will teach you how to handle temptations. The reader will learn the truths of victorious living and how to apply these truths and enjoy an enviable Christian life. This book is a must-have resource that offers both biblical and practical guidelines for the Christian to triumph over temptation. The devil can be defeated. He can be beaten, squashed, and shamed. You can stand your ground and say 'No' to the devil and 'Yes' to God. Oh yes you can! It's not going to be a walk in the park but you would get there.
