As a Presbyterian Minister, I would probably use it as a sermon illustration!

But, more seriously, I would use the universiality of temptation as a warning for people to keep up their Christian strength by constant Bible reading and meditation; constant prayer; and constant vigilance.

I would also use the old hymn, "Yield not to temptation, for yielding is sin" to remind them that encountering temptation is not a sin; giving in to it is.

I all of the above, of course, I am assuming that we are talking about temptation to sin, as opposed to benign temptation.

ANSWER:It is very easy to resist temptation, especially if we are married. It may sound lame but as long as you know who you are and what you wanted in life, you can resist temptation.
