Matthew 6:13; Matthew 26:41; 2 Peter 2:9; Proverbs 4:14-19
There is a legend that the Apostle John was much distressed over the fall of a young convert. He summoned Satan before him, and reproached him for ruining so good a youth.
“I found your good youth on my ground,” said Satan; “so I took him.”
The only safe course is to avoid temptation altogether.
