I pray your weekend is going well.
As you know, I was invited to collaborate with others on writing about Standing Firm in the Battle at the Bread and Life. For the next four weeks, we will post new articles on Tuesday.
I wish to share quotes from the other writers I worked with.
They are from our post on Resisting Temptation in Real Time, published this past week
From Dan Blincoe, who initiated the project and writes at the Bread and Life,
When the enemy whispers, "Did God really say…?" like he did in the garden Genesis 3:1, he’s not just questioning God's command—he’s challenging your identity. He wants you to live from a place of need, of lack, as if you're not already filled in Christ.
From Boma, who writes at The
The Holy Spirit will bring to our remembrance all we need to be successful in all we have to do but if we’ve hidden nothing in our heart, what would He bring to our remembrance?
From Janet Abadir, who writes at Janet’s Substack :
Surely, our courageous Savior knew what He was talking about when He saw what He was about to suffer. God's wrath is terrifying, and it was our sin that merited this wrath. Remember Romans 5:9: "Since therefore, we have now been justified by his blood, much more shall we be saved by him from the wrath of God."
Let this thought help you to hate sin when it sneaks up on you.
From Cole Nielsen, who writes at Cole Nielsen’s Substack :
I must look to Christ and see that He “is more precious than rubies, and all the things I might desire cannot compare with (Him).
From Steven Galatioto, who writes at Faithful Habits :
Scripture calls us to flee from sin (1 Corinthians 6:18, 2 Timothy 2:22), but fleeing alone isn't enough. You must run toward something greater—Christ-centered habits that keep you anchored.
